Specific Comments
1. Road names must match between individual sheets and overview/overall maps.
2. Roads may not change names arbitrarily through the travelway. Please refer to the
diagram below which indicates which road segments should be given unique names. For
example, Roads B, J, and H are labeled using more than one name.
3. Road names may only be duplicated when used for cul-de-sacs which have the same name
as the road from which they originate (example: "Amberfield Court" which originates from
"Amberfield Drive"). 3 In this application, Roads A, E, F, and G (see diagram below) are
the only roads eligible for this exception (colored red in the diagram).
4. Road L in the attached diagram must be given a road name.
5. Note that a maximum of two (2) roads may begin with "CLIFF" to comply with Part I,
Section 4-I of the County's Road Naming and Property Numbering Manual.
6. The proposed "RETREAT CIR" does not meet the criteria to use the "Circle" designator ('A
road which returns to itself. �. We suggest using "Loop" instead ('A drive which begins and
ends on the same road.').
Applicable Regulations
1. Per Part I, Section 4-e of the County's Road Naming and Property Numbering Manual
(page 7 of PDF).

2. Per Part I, Section 4-a of the County's Road Naming and Property Numbering Manual

County or the City of Charlottesville shall not be approved. An exception may be made for
cul-de-sacs which have the same name as the road from which they originate (example:
"Amberfield Court" which originates from "Amberfield Drive")."
3. Per Part I, Section 4-i of the County's Road Naming and Property Numbering Manual (page
7 of PDF).
