We have reviewed the above referenced plans and have the following comments:
Engineering (Emily Cox)
1. WPO must be approved before road plan can be approved. Rev. 1: WP0201800077 must be
approved before this road plan can be approved. Please add this plan # to the cover sheet
Note #2. Rev. 2: Comment still valid.
2. Provide a copy of permits relating to work in the floodplain. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
3. Provide permission or easement to grade offsite as shown on the plan. Rev. 1: Comment
addressed.
4. Proposed slopes must all be 2:1 or flatter and proposed slopes steeper than 3:1 must have low
maintenance ground cover or steep slope seed mix specified on the plan. Rev. 1: Comment not
addressed. Grading steeper than 2:1 is shown and note did not include steep slope seed mix
option. Rev. 2: Please revise note to say low maintenance ground cover or steep slope grass
seed mix. Crown Vetch is invasive and is not recommended by the county. Also, please add
the same note on landscaping plan.
5. Note the approved steep slopes exhibit on the plan (date of approval and title of exhibit). Rev. 1:
Comment addressed.
6. Label Sheet 13, grading plan, not utility plan. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
7. Ensure biofilter matches WPO Plan (grading and layout). Rev 1: Comment addressed.
8. Show stormwater management facility easements. Rev. 1: Comment not addressed. SWM
facility easement not evident. Rev. 2: Comment addressed.
9. The typical section on sheets 20 & 21 for Raynor & Charnwood should say private, not public.
Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
10. Sight distance lines and easements should be unobstructed. SD#3(building), SD#2
(driveways/cars), and SD12(building) appear to have obstructions. Rev. 1: Objects are no longer
shown, so sight distance cannot properly be checked. Buildings were shown on the 1st
submission. Rev. 2: Please check lot 40 and lot 8. Lot 40 does not show a building and lot 8
appears to have a line going through the corner of the building.

11. Maximum velocity in storm pipes is 15ft/s. Rev. 1: Comment not addressed. Pipes 19-9, 32-31
and 34-33 are still above 15 ft/s. Rev. 2: Comment addressed.
12. Provide pavement design calculations (flexible pavement worksheet). Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
13. Is this plan going to be phased? If so, provide phase lines and outline of plan/sequence. Rev. 1:
Comment addressed.
14. Rev. 1: Clarify private road vs. alley. Private roads must have a minimum ROW width of 30
ft. Rev. 2: Comment addressed.
15. Rev. 2: [Sheet 141 It is not clear where structures 8A and 9A are located. They are in the
pipe and inlet computations. Please review all DA, calcs and pipe labels etc. to ensure

Planning (Andy Reitelbach)
1. See attached review comment letter dated Oct 23, 2018. Rev. 1: See attached comment letter
dated Feb 15, 2019. Rev. 2:See attached letter dated May 23, 2019.
VDOT (Adam Moore)
1. See attached review comment letter dated Oct 23, 2018. Rev. 1: See attached comment letter
dated Feb 19, 2019. Rev. 2: See attached letter dated May 10, 2019.
Fire Rescue (Shawn Maddox)
1. The second point of emergency access will be required prior to the construction of the 31 st
structure in this phase. This should be acknowledged in a legally recorded document to ensure
compliance. Rev. 1: 1. Please verify via email that this Block 32 will be marked no parking
throughout due to street and alley widths. Fire Rescue has no objections to the road plan as
submitted as long as the no parking is verified. Rev. 2: The response letter indicates that the
road is 26' FC to FC which will allow parking and 20' of clear travel lane. Based on
standard parking space dimensions the road width would need to be 28' FC to FC to allow
parking on one side of the street. SNM
ACSA (Richard Nelson)
1. Still under review, see attached email. Rev. 1: Still under review. See email dated 2/19/19. Rev.
2: No objection per email dated 4/11/19.
GIS (Andrew Slack)
1. The road names are acceptable, but our office recommends against using 'Bishopgate Lane
Ext' due to 'Bishopgate Lane' being a loop. This could lead to confusion by emergency
responders in the field. We recommend changing the name of 'Bishopgate Lane Ext.' to a
different name. For example 'Bishopgate Place', 'Bishopgate Way', or 'Bishopgate Drive'
would be examples of road names that are available
ARB (Heather McMahon)
1. By a vote of 5:0 at the 2-12-18 ARB meeting, the board determined that the proposal does not
require ARB review because the block will not be visible from the EC. No further ARB review is
required.
Engineering plan review staff are available from 2-4 PM on Thursdays, should you require a meeting to
discuss this review.

Memorandum
To: Emily Cox (ecox cr,albemarle.org)
From: Andy Reitelbach, Senior Planner
Division: Planning
Date: May 23, 2019
Subject: SUB2018-00164 Old Trail Village — Block 32 - Road Plans; 3' Submittal
Fax 434-972-4126
The County of Albemarle Planning Division will grant or recommend approval of the road plans referenced above
once the following comments have been satisfactorily addressed. (The following comments are those that have
been identified at this time. Additional comments may be added or eliminated based upon further review.) [Each
comment is preceded by the applicable reference, which is to the Subdivision/Zoning Ordinances unless otherwise
specified.]
[General Comment] Revise the label of Bishopgate Lane Extended on the plans to indicate that it is
currently only a fire -access lane at this time, as it is not an approved street and does not have a name. In
addition, remove the sidewalk and planting strip. As discussed at the meeting last week, a two-step process
could be pursued for a private street in this location. Because this private street is not currently approved,
it should not be shown on the road plan as such or include street improvements such as planting strips and
sidewalks. Once approval of a private street occurs in this location, the road plan will have to be amended
to show the change in circumstance. In the meantime, the width of the right-of-way in this location can
remain the same to accommodate the proposed future improvements and designation as a private street.
In addition, revise the labels of Bishopgate Lane Extended on the road plan and profile sections on sheets
15-18 to rename those sections as the fire access lane, as that stretch of road is not currently approved as
a private street. Also, revise the label on the landscaping plan, sheet 30.
2. [General Comment] Revise the sheet numbers for the last three (3) sheets of the plan. They are
misnumbered.
3. [14-422] There are several areas of the sidewalks that are missing accessible ramps, including where the
sidewalks are proposed to cross the fire access lane, the alley, and the private streets. Provide accessible
ramps at the termination of each sidewalk segment to facilitate movement across intersecting streets or
alleys.
4. [ZMA2015-00001, 14-4221 Sidewalks must be provided along the front of the lots that are amenity -
oriented (the portion of the lots facing the pocket parks), in accordance with the conditions of the sidewalk
exception request that was approved along with ZMA2015-00001:
a. "A five foot sidewalk across the length of the amenity area shall be provided for access to and
from the lots and connect to the sidewalk network along the public and private streets."
5. [ZMA2015-00001, 32.7.91 Revise the landscaping plan. The street tree calculations on sheet 33 do not
match what is shown on the plan sheets. The streets indicated on sheet 33 as having trees are not shown
to have trees on the plan sheets. The streets that should have trees are Bishopgate Lane, Old Trail Drive,
Charnwood Street, and Raynor Place. Provide the correct lengths of those four streets so that the number
of required trees can be calculated accurately. In addition, the number of trees provided as stated in the
calculations do not match the number of trees actually depicted on the plans.

Review #3
Dear Ms. Cox:
The Department of Transportation, Charlottesville Residency Transportation and Land Use
Section, has reviewed the above referenced plan as submitted by Roudabush, Gale, &
Associates, revised 25 March 2019, and offers the following comments:
1. Please remove stop bars at internal intersections, as they are not warranted and will not be
maintained.
2. Please show CG-I2s angled perpendicular to the crossing street, not perpendicular to the
center of the radius.
3. Note that these comments may be addressed via email/pdf exchange.
If further information is desired, please contact Justin Dee] at 434-422-9894.
A VDOT Land Use Permit will be required prior to any work within the right-of-way. The
owner/developer must contact the Charlottesville Residency Transportation and Land Use
Section at (434) 422-9399 for information pertaining to this process.
