Memorandum
To: Kris Winters (kwinters@roudabush.com)
From: Paty Saternye, Senior Planner
Division: Planning
Date: Final: August 1, 2018
FINAL UPDATE: November 27, 2018 (Still based on 6/4/18 submission but updated
for the approval of Variation #53, 54 & 55)
Rev. 1: February 27, 2019
Subject: SUB 201800098 Belvedere Phase IIB — Final Subdivision Plan
The County of Albemarle Planning Division will recommend approval of the plat referenced above once the
following comments have been satisfactorily addressed (The following comments are those that have been
identified at this time. Additional comments or conditions may be added or eliminated based on further review.):
[Each comment is preceded by the applicable reference, which is to the Subdivision/Zoning Ordinances unless
otherwise specified.]
Conditions of Preliminary Plat Approval (from letter dated 8/4/16):
[COD] Provide a comparison with approved rezoning table that shows the maximum & minimum residential
densities. Tables 1 & 2 from the most recent Code of Development (As Revised: July 22, 2014) must be
provided on the subdivision plat and expanded upon to provide information comparing the approved zoning
with what has already been built, what has been platted but not built, what is being proposed in this
subdivision plat (labeled as "Belvedere Phase IIB Proposed'), and the total number of units remaining for
each block. The deed book and page number must be provided in the chart for what has already been built
and what has been platted but not yet built. This table must include all of Belvedere, be broken down by
block, and have totals. Please refer to SUB201400178 Belvedere Phase IIA-2 Final Subdivision Plat, Sheet
No. V2, for an example. The proposed lots for this subdivision plat, when added to the previously platted
lots, must meet the minimum and not exceed the maximums for Blocks 4, 7 and 9.
Final: Comment not addressed. Address comment as specified. There are variations currently under
review that impact this table. Those variations must be approved prior to this plat being approved or this
plat must be modified in order to meet the existing requirements of the Code of Development. Ensure it is
completely up to date with already platted and developed portions of the rest of Belvedere.
FINAL UPDATE: Provide a comparison with the approved rezoning table that shows the maximum &
minimum residential densities. Attached please find a markup of the chart provided in a previous
submission of the Road Plan (revision date of 3/23/18).
Rev. 1: Comment not vet fully addressed. See attached highlighted markup for items that
to not vet match document provided with 11/27/18 exhibit provided with comments. Two
items are not as specified. Either correct the density Table on sheet V2 or contact reviewer
to discuss why what is shown is correct.
4. [14-302(A)14 & COD] Land to be dedicated in fee or reserved/green space and amenities (Table 4).
Provide a table that includes all of the information from Table 4 Green Space Tabulation in the most recent
Code of Development (As Revised: July 22, 2014), as the `Approved with Rezoning', and that also specifies
what has already been provided & platted, what is proposed with Phase 1113, the difference from the
rezoning, and totals for all of Belvedere. Provide the deed book and page number for the open spaces
provide and platted. Refer to SUB201400178 Belvedere Phase IIA-2 Final Subdivision Plat, Sheet No. V1,
for an example. Additionally, the total Open Space number provided in the Notes section of the cover sheet
should match the sum of the numbers listed in the provided table.
Final: Comment not fully addressed. Address the comment. Note that a variation request has been
submitted for Belvedere Open Space. This plat cannot be approved until the open space variation is
approved, and the plat meets the open space requirements specified in the variation, or the open space
specified in the approved C.O.D. is provided. Note that on page 16 of the C.O.D. there is a note at the
bottom of the chart that states "The deficit in Blocks 3, 4A, 5A, 6 and 9A will be made up in Phase 2."
Therefore, any outstanding open space totals must be made up with this Phase IIB unless a variation stating
otherwise is approved.
FINAL UPDATE: A full chart comparing the open space, as previously provided in the preliminary
subdivision plat, will not be required. However, a note or chart specifying the open space "Required" and
"Provided" for all block that are part of the proposed plat will be required.
Rev. 1: Comment not vet fully addressed. Revise the "Green Space/Open Space
Proposed:" table on sheet V2 to include Open Space "A" and Open Space "B", which are in
Block 4. This information is correctly specified in the Area Summary chart on sheet V1 but
is not included in the "Green Space/Open Space Proposed:" on sheet V2.
8. [14-302(A)14 & COD] Land to be dedicated in fee or reserved/green space and amenities (Table 4). See
the comments from Zoning. Include the two open spaces on the corners adjacent to Lot 39 and Lot 48 in
this subdivision plat since they are open spaces within Block 4, are part of the parcels you are subdividing,
and this subdivision plat is the last within the NMD for Block 4. Adjust the line for the "project area" so that it
includes these corner open spaces, including the full size of the open space between Lots 48 & 160.
Final: Comment not fully addressed. See the comments from Zoning. The two open spaces specified, now
labled as Open Space Wand Open Space 'B', have been included in the final plat submission. Note that
the lot numbering has now changed since the preliminary plat. The two adjoining lots are now labled as Lot
218 and Lot 219.
FINAL UPDATE: See the comments from zoning in reference to open space amenities.
Rev. 1: Comment may not vet be fully addressed. See zoning comments once they are
provided to you.
10. [14-302(B)8 and COD] Yards. If any of the proposed lots in Block 9 are reduced to 60' width or less, in
response to comments #6 above, update their build -to and setback lines to those appropriate for the smaller
width lots.
Final: Comment not fully addressed. Address the following:
a) Table 9 from the Code of Development was shown on the coversheet of the preliminary plat. It
must be included in this final plat.
Rev. 1: Comment not vet fully addressed. Revise Table 9, on sheet V2, to no longer
include note V. This note is for a variation request that was withdrawn and was not
approved by the Board of Supervisors.
c) Revise Note 9 on setbacks to correctly represent the "Front Build -to" minimums and maximums.
Rev. 1: Comment not vet fully addressed. Revise Note # 9, on sheet V1, to specify
Build -To lines on ALL fronts and not just the "8' min. 16' max" lots. The lots that are
60' or wider have a 16' Front "Build -To line" and not a "setback".
14. [COD] Two different sections have been provided for Belvedere Blvd. One of them is adjacent to the
Village Green and has a median. The other is farther away from the Village Green and does not have a
median. Although the ZMA drawings do show the median ending just past the Village Green, neither of
these road sections match those that are provided in the COD. Also, the plan views of Belvedere Blvd do
not match the two street sections provided for it. Work with Engineering, Fire/Rescue, and VDOT to
establish approvable road widths and road sections and ensure that the road sections match the roads
shown in the plan views. Any differences from the COD, other than an increased in pavement width to
satisfy comments from the SRC reviewer, must be approved through a variation. Also, see comment # 16
below.
Final: Comment not fully addressed. Address the following:
a) The label for the width of Belvedere Blvd. is incorrect for a portion of the Blvd. There are two different
sections for the Blvd and only one of them was shown as a width of 71' in the last submission of the
road plan. Revise the label to be correct for the whole Blvd.
Rev. 1: Comment not addressed. Revise the plat to specify that a portion of Belvedere
Blvd. is wider than the rest at 83' wide. The first portion of Blvd, coming from the
village preen, appears to be drawn correctly at 83' wide but the only width of the right of
way specified for the Blvd. is 71' wide. Add the appropriate labels to specify that that
portion of the Blvd. is a different width.
b) The road sections are not part of this final plat and are being reviewed in, and will be finalized with, the
proposed Belvedere Phase 1113 Road Plan. This final plat will not be approved until the final road plan is
approved and the roads are built or bonded. This final plat will be required to show the right of way road
widths specified in that road plan, once it is approved.
Rev. 1: Comment not vet fully addressed. This final plat will not be approved until the final
road plan is approved and the roads are built or bonded.
18. [COD] Roads and alleys not within the NMD area were not approved with ZMA2004-7. The extension of
the private alley beyond the NMD boundary requires approval since it is a type of "Private Street". Private
alleys can be approved by the agent administratively in the development area if street frontage exists, or will
be provided, for all lots to be served by the alley (14-236 B.). Provide information which shows that no
public agency, including the Virginia Department of Transportation and the County of Albemarle will be
responsible for maintaining the alley. Provide information on whether this extension will be maintained by
the Belvedere HOA. If not provide information on who will be maintaining the road and associated
maintenance agreements. Work with Planning, Engineering, and Fire/Rescue to establish approvable alley
widths and sections.
Final: Comment not fully addressed. Address the following:
b) Revise the final plat to specify "private" and "public" for the streets and alleys.
Rev. 1: Comment not vet fully addressed. There are no labels for either Barrett Street or
Shelton Street that specify that they will be "Public" roads. Ensure their labels are
updated on all sheets to specify that they are "Public".
d) Provide the legal documents that will be required for the ownership and maintenance of the private
alleys. These documents will be reviewed by the County Attorney's office. These legal documents
must be approved by the County, signed and notarized, and a copy provided to the County prior to final
plat approval. These documents must be recorded with the final plat.
Rev. 1: Comment addressed. IMPORTANT: The County Attorney's office has reviewed
the provided legal documents. How the private alleys have been integrated into the
Supplemental Agreement is sufficient and the separate deeds will not be required.
24. [14-302(A)4&5] Private & public easements. Provide the location and dimensions of all existing and
proposed private and public easements. Existing easements should be labeled with the appropriate DB and
PG reference. Proposed easements should be labeled with the intended holder. Show the existing
easements on the adjoining property that are, or will be, connecting to the onsite existing and proposed
easements.
Final: Comment not fully addressed. Address the following:
e) Provide the legal documents required for the maintenance and ownership of the stormwater drainage
easements. Those documents will be reviewed by the County Attorney's office. They must be
approved, sign, notarized and a signed copy provided to the County prior to approval of this final plat.
They must also be recorded with the plat.
Rev. 1: Comment not yet fully addressed. Address the following:
i. A deed for stormwater drainage was submitted. However, the type of deed and the
template used are not the correct ones. Attached please find the County's template
for public road drainage easements.
ii. Please see engineering reviewer's comments in reference to the storm drainage
easements. Some easement specified as "public" storm easements do not carry
water from the public roads, are located in the private alleys, and therefore some of
the easements or portions of some easement should be "private" storm easements.
iii. Either integrate these private storm drainage easements into the supplemental
agreement or provide a separate deed that ensure the HOA maintains them. If they
are to be part of the supplemental agreement provide another highlighted version
of the original declaration that shows where the maintenance of the previous
private storm drainage easements was specified.
25. [14-302(A)4 & COD] Private easements. When a side setback of less than 4'11" is used, a 6' maintenance
easement shall be recorded on all properties adjacent to the side setback of less than 4'11".
Final: Comment not addressed. Address this comment. Included these maintenance easements in this plat
and submit the appropriate deeds for review and approval. The deed(s) putting these easements in place
must be approved by the County, signed, notarized, a signed copy provided to the County and then it must
be recorded with this plat.
Rev. 1: Comment addressed IMPORTANT: The County Attorneys office has reviewed the
provided leaal documents. Thev have specified that the maintenance easement IS
required. It is confirmed that this is for the adjoining property owners to maintain their
yard and structures. It has been integrated into the Supplemental Agreement. Ensure that
the creation of the maintenance easement continues to be provided in these documents.
33. [Comment] Address all of the attached Site Review Committee (SRC) comments. See the attached
comments from zoning, engineering, Inspections, fire/rescue, E911, VDOT, and ACSA. Contact the
individual reviewer if you have any questions or require additional information. See the cover sheet for their
contact information.
Final: Comment not fully addressed. See and address the attached comments. See the attached comments
from zoning, engineering, Inspections, E911, VDOT, ACSA and RWSA. Comments from Transportation
Planning and Fire Rescue are still pending and will be forwarded to you once they are available.
Rev. 1: Comment not fully addressed. See the attached comments from some of the other
reviewers. VDOT and Zoning comments are still pending and will be forwarded once they are
provided. Ensure all reviewer comments are addressed.
34. [14-303] Contents of final plat. A plat meeting all the requirements for final subdivision plats per the
subdivision ordinance.
Final: Comment not fully addressed. Address all comments above and below.
Rev. 1: Comment not fully addressed. Address all comments above and below.
Final Plat Comments:
39. [14-303(K)] Temporary turnarounds. The location of temporary turnarounds, if needed, with the following
accompanying note: "The area on this plat designated as a temporary turnaround will be constructed and
used as other streets in the subdivision until (street name) is/are extended to (street name), at which time
the land in the temporary turnaround area will be abandoned for street purposes and will revert to adjoining
property owners in accordance with specific provisions in their respective deeds." Provide that note on the
plat.
Rev. 1: Comment not yet fully addressed. Revise note #20 on the cover sheet to specify
that when the temporary turnaround "... is extended to connect to another alley or
street..." it will be abandoned and not lust when it is "extended".
40. [Comment] Submit the deed(s) for maintenance and easement for the temporary turn around easement.
This deed must be reviewed by the County Attorney's office. It must be approved, signed, notarized and a
signed copy must be submitted. This deed must be recorded with the final plat.
Rev. 1: Comment not yet fully addressed. The comment response letter specified that the
"requisite deeds have been submitted with the final plat revisions as a supplement."
Please specify which deed is meant to put in place the maintenance for the temporary turn
around or what section(s) of the supplemental declaration and original declaration will put
this maintenance in place. It is separate from Cornelius Alley and I do not think it is
considered part of the "private right of ways".
42. [Comment] Provide the proposed 10' access easement, shown on the last submission of the Phase IIB
Road Plan, that ties the proposed Blvd. right of way into the existing access easement for TMP 62-2A.
Rev. 1: Comment not yet fully addressed. It does not appear that the realignment, creation,
or vacation of a portion of the existing easement for the driveway access to TMP 62-2A is
included in the deeds or declarations already submitted. Either specify where this is
already being handled in the legal documents already provided, revise them to do so, or
provide the appropriate deeds for this change in the driveway.
43. Rev. 1: [New Commentl Submit the deed for the proposed sight distance easement at the corner of
Farrow Drive and Fowler Street. Although this easement will be dedicated to the County for Public
Use, and the County Executive will be signing it, no template exists at this time. This deed must be
submitted and reviewed by the County Attorney's office. It must be approved, signed, notarized, the
signed copy submitted and then signed by the County Executive. This deed must also be recorded
with the final plat.
44. Rev. 1: [New Commentl Ensure that the order of recordation for all deeds and declarations, and what
will be approved at the same time as the Phase IIB plat and deeds, is considered and correct. It
appears that in the supplemental declaration for Phase IIB (Pape 3, section 3.b.) that the Phase IVA-1
plat is referenced, and blanks are left its deed book and page number. However, it is my
understanding that the applicant wishes to record Phase IIB prior to when the Phase IVA-1 will be
able to be approved. Therefore, this reference needs to be considered and likely revised.
