[Z.O.32.3.1.(c), 32.4.2.5.(a), 33.40.C, and SP2018-07 and SP2018-08 Conceptual Plan and Conditions of Approval] : CDD staff has reviewed this Initial Site Plan and has made the following findings regarding compliance with the applicable Special Use Permit (SP) Conditions of Approval: a. The proposed Site Plan shown on Sheet 4 appears to be in general accord with the Conceptual Plan in regards to SP Conditions of Approval #l.a, Lc, Ld, and Le. b. The proposed Site Plan shown on Sheet 4 is potentially in general accord with the Conceptual Plan in regards to SP Condition of Approval #1.b ("Screening comprised of a screen fence (sliding gate), screening fence, and landscaping"). CDD-Planning staff is coordinating with CDD-Zoning staff to determine if the proposed location of the "opaque wooden gate" as shown on Sheet 4 (at the rear corner of the proposed building addition) is in general accord with the "proposed sliding gate" shown on the Conceptual Plan (near the front corner of the existing building). c. The proposed Site Plan shown on Sheet 4 is in general accord with SP Condition of Approval #2; however, please see VDOT review comments regarding required modifications to the design and location of the proposed sidewalk. d. The proposed Site Plan shown on Sheet 4 is potentially in general accord with SP Condition of Approval #3; this condition does not have to be addressed and resolved until the time of Building Permit review. e. The proposed Site Plan shown on Sheet 4 is potentially in general accord with SP Condition of Approval #2; this condition does not have to be addressed and resolved until the time of Landscape Plan review (during the Final Site Plan review process). 2. [SP2018-07 and SP2018-08 Special Exceptions Conditions of Approval]: CDD staff has reviewed this Initial Site Plan and has made the following findings regarding compliance with the applicable Special Exception (SE) Conditions of Approval: a. The proposed Site Plan shown on Sheet 4 appears to be in general accord with all SE Conditions of Approval. b. Staff requests, but does not require, that the following note be added to Sheet 4 and also added to the Landscape Plan (during the Final Site Plan review process): "The existing canopy trees within the side yard setback area that currently provide screening shall be protected during construction, and shall be maintained to increase and preserve the health of the trees — including but not limited to cutting and/or removing the vines growing up the tree trunks — as requested by the Albemarle County Planning Commission during the public hearing to discuss Special Exception requests to modify the side yard setback and disturbance buffer zone on September 25, 2018. " [Z.O. 32.5.2(a)]: Please revise the Zoning information as follows: a. In the "Project Narrative" on Sheet 1, revise the second paragraph to reference "two special exceptions" instead of "a special exception," and add the date of approval of those special exceptions (11/14/2018) for reference. b. In the "Ordinance Tabulations" table on Sheet 2, revise the "Side and Rear — Minimum" information in the "Yards" section to reference the two Special Exceptions approved on I l/14/2018 (involving modifications to the side yard setback and disturbance buffer zone). 4. [Z.O.32.5.2.(e)]: Please show and quantify proposed limits of disturbance. (See CDD-Engineering comments.) 5. [Z.O.32.5.2.(b) and 32.5.2.(k)]: Site Plan Note 8 on Sheet 4 references an existing sewer lateral that will be utilized for service to 1895 Avon Street Extended. Please add a reference to this existing sewer lateral and available sewer service in the "Property Information" section of the "Ordinance Tabulations" table on Sheet 2. Currently, the "ACSA Jurisdictional Area Note" portion of that section references water utility service but does not mention wastewater/sewer utility service. 6.
