Subject: SUB-2019-160 Hansen Road Church — Easement Plat
The County of Albemarle Planning Division will grant or recommend approval of the Final 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.]
[ZMA 2018-2 Proffer #1] See zoning comments about the location of the trail and the
trail easement. Please note that the proffer states:
• that the "Owner shall dedicate a non-exclusive easement on and across the
pedestrian path for public use." and that
• "The property owner shall maintain the path improvements...."
Based upon the zoning comment, and the wording of the proffer, the order for approvals
will be as follows:
a) The LOR is approved showing the proposed trail improvements but not easement. I
know we had previously specified the easement should be included but zoning has
now specified the order and I apologize for not having it accurately outlined this for
you previously.
b) The trail is built to meet all of the requirements specified in the proffer.
c) The trail is surveyed, and its exact location and width is determined and verified.
d) The easement plat is revised to show the exact location of the 6' easement over the
as built location of the trail. A maintenance agreement is drafted and approved with
the owner of the parcel maintaining the trail. The easement plat is approved and
then both the plat and the maintenance agreement are recorded.
e) The CO for the building can be issued.
2. [14-302 (113)(5)] Zoning classification. Revise note number 7 to include ZMA2018-2.
3. [14-303 (H)] Monuments. Provide a legend and/or label the property corners specifying if
they are pins found or set. There appears to be two types of property corner symbols, but
there are no labels or a legend to specify what they are representing.
4. [14-303 (1)] Bearing and distance ties. Provide bearing and distance ties for the proposed
easement to existing monuments.
5. [14-302 (A)(4), (5) & ZMA2019-2 Proffer #1] Private easements; Public Easements.
Submit the draft legal document that creates the easement. Because of eh wording of
the proffer this cannot be done through the exiting agreement for the Rolkin Road
ingress/egress easement. See zoning comments. This deed of easement document
must be reviewed by the County Attorney's office, approved, a signed & notarized copy
submitted to the planning reviewer, and recorded with the easement plat.
[ZMA2018-2] Provide the draft maintenance agreement for the proposed trail for County
review. The checklist for maintenance of required improvements is attached to these
comments for your reference and use. The numbered requirement in the checklist must
be shown to be met in he proposed agreement and the number of the item must be written
next to the highlighted section of the agreement. This agreement must be reviewed by the
County Attorney's office, approved, a signed & notarized copy submitted to the planning
reviewer, and recorded with the easement plat.
7. [COMMENT] This easement must be created exactly on the location of the 6' as built
location of the trail and therefore cannot be approved prior to the trail improvements being
accomplished. See zoning comments and comment #1 above for order of approval.
8. [14-302 (113)(1)] General information. Ensure with the next submission that the revision
date on the plat is updated.
9. [COMMENT] Seethe attach comment from other reviewers.

Subject: SDP2018-00003 Hansen Road Church Final — L0R#1 &
SUB2019-00160 Easement plat for 6' Pedestrian Path Proffer Compliance
1. Parking calculation revisions. Please see Comments #1 and 2 below from 11/9/2018 for
context. The proper parking calculation of 5.5 spaces per 1000sgft of the gross floor area
must be used and should be revised as follows;
5.5 Spaces per 1000sgft of gross floor area
28246/1000 = 28.24 X 5.5 = 155 spaces required
Provided on Property Parking, Not on Street = 160 Spaces (Includes 7 HC)
Provided on Property Parking on Street = 26 Spaces
Total Parking Provided Onsite = 186 Spaces
The Zoning Ordinance states that the total number of parking spaces is not to exceed
the number of spaces required by more than 20%.
155 * .20 = 31, and 155 + 31 = 186 Spaces
NOTE: The 20 Parking Spaces shown along the opposite side of Rolkin Road (offsite)
are not required for this application. This note is being provided to acknowledge that
there is this parking, and it will be available for any further amendments for additional
square footage permitted by the ZMA.
Please be aware, as noted below, that eventual square footage developed up to the maximum
55,OOOsgft per the ZMA will also be calculated with the 5.5 spaces per 1000GFA calculation.
This means that if the remaining square footage were developed (55,000 — 28,246 = 26,754),
then an additional 147 spaces will be needed. Also, as noted below, the Zoning Ordinance
allows for alternatives to providing the onsite parking.
2. Please note that the location of the pedestrian path and that an easement will be established
over the path one it is constructed.
11/9/2018 — Comments provided for the final site plan approval
1. 1 believe that I have incorrectly required the parking requirement for religious assembly uses
on this site. Instead of the religious assembly uses parking calculation of 1 space per 3 fixed
seats that have been used, the parking calculation for shopping centers should have been
used since this site is part of a ZMA that approved the use of the shopping center parking
calculation. The calculation of 5.5 spaces per every 1000sgft of gross floor area has been
used throughout most of the development approved with the 1998 and 2002 ZMAs. The
shopping center calculation would show the building of 19960/1000 = 19.96 X 5.5 = 110
spaces required and 206 provided. The 206 spaces provided would exceed the maximum
allowed for the site. The maximum permitted would be 132 spaces. (110 * .20 = 22 +110 =
132). In the interest of moving forward with this site plan, using the standard religious
assembly uses parking requirements for this plan will be permitted at this time. So, having the
188 spaces for the 563 seats noted on the plan is allowed. PLEASE SEE COMMENT #2 for
future parking calculation requirements.
2. Please note the following for any proposed development beyond any approval of
SDP2018-00003 in the future.
The architectural drawings used to verify that the structure would be at or near the 20,OOOsgft
limit set by the 2002 ZMA show the church to have 845 seats, 555 in the main area, and 290
in a mezzanine area. The site also currently has a Zoning Map Amendment (ZMA2018-00002)
proposal to change the square footage limit for buildings on this block per the 2002 ZMA. The
mezzanine area appears to be contemplated if the 20,OOOsgft building size limit is increased
per an approved amendment to the 2002 ZMA. If the increase in building size is permitted and
the church builds 845 seats, then any approved site plan would need to be amended. With
this amendment, the 5.5 spaces per 1000 gross floor area must be used for calculating
parking. It is known per the plan for ZMA2018-00002 that the church building is proposed to
be 30,OOOsgft gross. Per the shopping center calculation of 5.5 spaces per 1000sgft of gross
floor area, this would require 165 spaces. The plan also includes a 2-story office building of
25,OOOsgft total that would require 138 spaces, combined 165 + 138 = 303 parking spaces.
The current site plan shows that there would be only 206 spaces provided, short 97 spaces if
built, as shown on SDP2018-00003. At the time of site plan amendment, the will be required
to show that an approved alternative has been provided. Shared parking with an adjacent
property appears to be the most viable option. Any shared parking option would eventually
need a recorded agreement between property owners.
SUB2019-00160 Easement plat comments
The specific language of the approved proffer states that the pedestrian path improvements
must be made before the certificate of occupancy for any building constructed that contains
additional square footage approved as a result of ZMA 20018-00002. The proffer also states
that "Upon completion of pedestrian path improvements, the property Owner shall dedicate a
non-exclusive easement on and across the pedestrian path for public use." All of this being
said, the extension of the private street ROW will not work in this case to comply with the
proffer. The pedestrian path improvement has not been completed, and the location of that
improvement may not be within that described area. The easement over the improvement
must be shown as a separate surveyed easement and come after the pedestrian path
improvement has physically been installed.
