Memorandum
To: Steve Garrett
From: Christopher Perez, Senior Planner
Division: Planning
Date: April 8, 2019
Subject: SUB2019-18 Rio Vista — Final Subdivision Plat
The County of Albemarle Planning Division will grant or recommend approval of the Subdivision Plat referenced above once the
following comments have been addressed: [Each comment is preceded by the applicable reference, which is to the
Subdivision/Zoning Ordinances unless otherwise specified.]
1. [14-207] The applicant paid the correct fee and submitted the correct application; however, it appears the plat was
developed utilizing criteria in section 14-206. This 2 lot division is subject to section 14-207, I offer the following
comments related to the required changes:
2. [14-302(A)9, 4.2.2(b)(1), 4.2.1, 14-4001 Building Site.' This parcel is highly encumbered by preserved slopes, the
flood hazard overlay district, and stream buffers. To ensure each lot is provided a building site that meets County
Code, on the plat depict, label, and dimension each lot's building site. If the surveyor prefers not to depict the
building site on the plat but would rather provide an exhibit demonstrating the building site requirements are met,
ensure the exhibit provided utilizes all applicable items required on the plat to aid in determining a building site is
provided.
Also, revise the building site note to apply to the subdivision being platted. Example: Lot 1 and the residue.
3. [14-302(B)(8)] Yards. Is there a prescriptive right-of-way easement for Rio Road on this property? The previous
plat submitted by Justin Shimp depicts an existing 25' prescriptive easement traversing the front of the property. If
it exists please depict, label, and dimension the existing 25' prescriptive easement. The front setback shall be
depicted from the edge of this easement.
4. [4.12.5, 4.12.4, 4.12.16] Parking. All parking spaces shall be established on the same lot with the primary use.
Ensure each lot is provided adequate area for the required parking and the dwelling unit. Please demonstrate this
requirement is met on the exhibit discussed above, label and dimension the required parking spaces.
Single family detached (including manufactured homes): Two (2) spaces per unit.
Multi family units, including duplexes, single family attached, and townhouses, but excluding
student suites:
Number of Parking
Bedrooms/Unit Spaces/Unit
Any unit of 500 square feet or less 1.25
One (1) bedroom 1.50
Two (2) or more bedrooms 2.00
In addition, if parking is provided on individual lots, such as for duplexes and single
family attached townhouses, rather than in lots or bays that are shared by all units in the
development, then one (1) guest space per four (4) units shall be provided.
' [4.2.1(a)] Composition of building site. A building site shall be composed of a contiguous area of land and may not contain any area of land that is: (i) in
critical or preserved slopes; (ii) within the flood hazard overlay district; (iii) under water during normal hydrological conditions; (iv) within two hundred
(200) horizontal feet of the one hundred year flood plain of any public water supply reservoir; and (v) within a stream buffer under chapter 17 of the Code,
provided that nothing contained herein shall be deemed to prohibit or impair the program authority from exercising its discretion as authorized in chapter
17.
[4.2.2(b)I] Residential development. Each building site in a residential development shall have adequate area for all dwelling unit(s) together with an area
equivalent to the sum of the applicable required yard areas for the applicable zoning district and, if parking is provided in bays, the parking area.
5. [14-302(B)(5)] Zoning Overlay/Topography. On the plat depict and label all preserved and managed slopes.
6. [14-414, 4.11 Public Water. Each lot shall be served by the public water supply. Depict the waterline and
waterline easement serving the lots.
7. [14-414, 4.11 Public Sewer. Each lot shall be served by the public sewer system. This development is relying on
infrastructure provided through TMP 61-190 for public sewer service. Prior to final subdivision plat approval the
sewer connection through TMP 61-190 shall either be built or bonded.
8. [14-414, 4.11 Public Sewer. All required off -site easements must be approved and recorded prior to plat approval.
Prior to plat approval an offsite ACSA sewer easement on TMP 61-190 is required. Revise the plat to include all
applicable platting information needed to permit this, including but not limited to a signature line and notary
statement for the adjacent owner, property information to include TMP 61-190 to the plat ... etc.
9. [14-236(A)] Shared Driveway. The division shall utilize a shared driveway to serve both parcels. Depict, label,
and dimension the shared driveway easement. Label the easement as: "Shared Driveway Easement".
10. [14-400, 4.6.3(a)] Shared Driveway. If a shared driveway traverses a front yard, each primary structure also shall
be located at least ten (10) feet from the edge of the shared driveway easement; if a shared driveway is concurrent
with the shared lot line of the lots served by the shared driveway, each primary structure also shall be located at
least six (6) feet from the edge of the shared driveway easement. Depict, label, and dimension this setback from
the shared driveway easement.
11. [14-303(E)] Shared Driveway. Provide a note that states: "The maintenance of the shared driveway shall be by the
owners of the lots affected by the shared driveway easement, not by the Virginia Department or Transportation or
the County. "
12. [14-302(B)(8)] Yards. Revise the plat setbacks depicted on the plat to be clearer. Also, provide a note with the setbacks
labeled. Include minimum and maximum setbacks.
Ex) Front = Minimum 5'
Maximum 25'
Rear = Minimum 20'
Maximum none
Side = Minimum none
Building Separation = 10'
13. [14-302(A)4&5] Private & Public Easements. Label all utilities as either existing or proposed.
14. [Section 15, 14-302(B)(5)] The parcel is zoned R-4. Development rights are not applicable to this zoning
designation. Remove the development rights notes.
15. [Comment] Remove the private street note on this plat, as no private streets are being platted.
16. [14-303(Q)] Water Supply. Remove or modify the water supply note: "Under current county policy public water
and public sewer will be available to this property. "
17. [14-302(A)11] Instrument creating property proposed for subdivision. On the plat provide the deed book and page
number of the instrument whereby the property was created, as recorded in the office of the clerk of the circuit
court of the county.
18. [14-302(B)(10)] Stream Buffers. Provide the following note: "The stream buffer(s) shown hereon shall be
managed in accordance with the Albemarle County Water Protection Ordinance. "
19. [14-303(A)] Statement of Consent to Division. Revise the consent to division statement to read: "The platting or
dedication of the following described land [insert correct description of the land subdivided] is with free consent
and in accordance with the desire of the undersigned owners, proprietors and trustees, if any. "
If the applicant would like to continue utilizing the previous ordinance language: `Any reference to future
potential development is to be deemed as theoretical. All statements affixed to this plat are true and correct to the
best of my knowledge. " Please utilize it as a separate note on the plat. Revise.
