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 rev. 3: Approved. See attached email dated 6/11/19.
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 Rev. 3: Approved. See email attached
dated 6/14/19.
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.

Justin/Adam,
Please see below responses in red to most recent VDOT comments and below link to requested revisions for 32 road
plans (PDF). I believe all parties indicated pdf review would suffice. Please let Emily Cox know when revisions are found
satisfactory.
VDOT (Adam Moore)
1. Please remove stop bars at internal intersections, as they are not warranted and will not be maintained.
• Stop bars have been removed as requested.
2. Please show CG-12s angled perpendicular to the crossing street, not perpendicular to the center of the
radius.
• CG-12's have been shifted to be perpendicular to the crossing street as requested.

Subject: RE: Block 32 - need final determination
Mr. Brockman — thank you for your call earlier today. After looking at my notes and past reviews of the
road plans it appears my concerns about the lack of 20' of clear travel width was noted on 1/29/2019
and 4/17/2019 in addition to the comments with this most recent resubmittal so this not a new, nor 11tn
hour comment as stated. Both of those plan review comments indicated the need for the area to be
marked no parking due to the lack of 20' of clear travel width. With that being said you made valid
points and I am willing to withdraw my objection for Block 32, (this travel width will not be considered in
future submittals for other projects), with the road width as designed. This decision is made based on
the following supporting evidence:
1. Interconnected streets that meet fire code minimum standards.
2. A second point of access for emergency services.
3. Building heights no more than two stories
4. Reduced on street parking due to driveways, site distances, etc.
5. The differences in VDOT, County and Fire code standards for street parking dimensions.
Fire Rescue does not request, or support, the idea for roll top curb in this section, please just proceed as
proposed. Thank you for reaching out to me.

Subject: Block 32 - need final determination
Hi Shawn,
I hope you are doing well. I'm in complete desperation now and reaching out for your final
approval to our plans on block 32. We have had about 9 months of multiple reviews on the Block
32 development plans from Fire and Rescue, and now at the 12th hour we are dealing with one
last issue that we feel has been addressed. If you are incapable of making this final approval then
please forward to an appropriate person that can respond to our numerous requests.
I just need you to realize this hold up is going to be causing extreme economic hardship if we
don't receive approval ASAP. Can you please get back to me, Bill Ledbetter, Jeremy Fox or
anyone at County Engineering to approve the plans as soon as possible? If there is another issue
you have with Old Trail Village then please let me know as soon as possible. We've all left
several messages with ways to contact us and you can follow up with anyone to express your
concerns.
I greatly appreciate this.

Hey Andrew,
Just checking in to see if you're ok with changing the road name to "Bishopgate Place" as suggested in
your comment. You and Andy (planning) are the only ones pending road plan approval.
