Omit the ACSA waterline easement from note #6 as all public water easements shall be dedicated to the Albemarle County Service Authority, and not to the County. Also, omit the gas line easement from note #6 and revise the easement label throughout the plat to no longer label it as "public" and instead dedicate it to Charlottesville Gas. Also, revise note #6 to omit the temporary construction easement from being dedicated to public use.
