The Planner will approve the site plan when the following items (from the Planner and from other SRC plan reviewers) have been satisfactorily addressed and when all SRC plan reviewers have indicated in writing their tentative approvals. [Each comment is preceded by the applicable reference to the Albemarle County Code.] [32.6.2(a), 32.5.2(b)] Below are issues raised with the change in programmatic square feet for the Block 1B building. Please address the following in the next submission. a. In accordance with the Old Trail Village Code of Development approved by ZMA200400024, this block is required to provide a minimum of 20,000sf of gross non-residential floor area (see attached table excerpt from the Code of Development). Rev. 1: Comment withdrawn. Applicant demonstrated that minimum square footage is provided. b. The Code of Development permits an increase to 31 apartment units, however, the parking requirements to accommodate the increased unit density are not shown. In fact, this application provides less parking than was approved by a 2013 parking analysis and determination for Block 1 (see attached parking determination — pg 4). Rev. 1: Comment replaced by planning review comment #5 below. 2. [ZMA200400024] Since the number of residential units is increasing with this proposal, provide on the plan a table which demonstrates compliance with proffer #2 of ZMA200400024 regarding affordable housing. Rev. 1: Comment remains. Thank you for providing material addressing the affordable housing requirement via email on 11/14/19. This information will be forwarded to the Zoning staff reviewer for review/approval. 3. [32.6.2(a), 32.5.2(a)] Include the application number (SDP201900020) for this minor site plan amendment on the Cover Sheet. Also reference that this is an amendment to the final site plan for Blocks 1B & 3C - SDP201300044. Rev. 1: Comment satisfied. 4. [32.6.2(a), 32.5.2(b)] In the Purpose section of the Cover Sheet, the plan should make it clear that this minor site plan amendment is changing the building footprint and programming of the building on Lot 55-E1-C2 and that the parking schedule is also being updated. Rev 1: Comment satisfied. 5. [32.6.2(a), 32.5.2(b)] Update the parking notes to reflect any changes to the parking schedule. Rev. 1: Comment remains. As agreed during an in -person meeting on 11/13/19, the submitted parking schedule and notes will be forwarded to the Zoning staff reviewer for review/approval. 6. [32.6.2(a), 32.5.2(b)] Include the seven (7) built townhouses in proposed use/density notes for this block (as was done in the approved site plan SDP201300044). Rev. 1: Comment replaced by planning review comment #12 below. 7. [32.6.2(a), 32.5.2(a)] The scale bars provided appear to be slightly off. Adjust so longer lengths scale correctly on the plans. Rev. 1: Comment remains. Adjust scale on Sheet 3. 8. [32.6.2(a), 32.5.2(a)] Depict all existing lot lines on the vicinity map on the Cover Sheet. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. Comments based on revised materials (dated 5.29.19): 9. [Comment] Content. As discussed during the in -person meeting, due to the complexity of this development and to avoid delays in future zoning clearances, this minor will need to incorporate the two previous LORs on the site. Please use the link below to access and reference the approved Letters of Revision 1 and 2 online. https://lfweb.albemarle.orWweblink/search.aspx?dbid=3 &searchcommand=%7b%5bCDD- Planning%5 d: %5bApplicationNumber%5 d=%22 SDP201300044%22 %7d&cr=1 10. [32.6.2(a), 32.5.2(b)] Purpose Statement. Remove the redundancy between Purposes 1 and 4; both state that the building footprint is changing, but the redundancy could cause confusion in the future. Staff recommends simply removing the first purpose statement. 11. [32.6.2(a), 32.5.2(a)] Zoning notes. The notes need to include all associated, approved proffers and variations. To do this, add the following language to the end of the zoning notes: "...and ZMA-2015-00001 approved on February 10, 2016. Variation 410 approved to reduce the overall amount of required non-residential square footage in Block 3 from 10,000sf to 7,000sf, approved December 5,2012." 12. [Comment pertaining to 32.5.2] Notes. Additionally, in the general notes, please add and/or update the following to avoid confusion in subsequent reviews/permitting requests for this development. (Note: See Approved LOR #2 for SDP201300044 as a reference and perhaps starting point — link to document provided above. This plan was also done by Roudabush, Gale and Associates.) a. Owner information b. Tax Map Parcel No c. Parcel Area d. Use by block — Condense current "existing" and "proposed" use sections and use a cloud to highlight what is changing with this development proposal e. Setbacks f. Gross Residential Density g. Bench Marks 13. [32.6.2(h)] Signature panel. It appears some signature lines got cutoff in the repositioning of signature panel on the cover sheet. Revise the panel to resemble the following chart: APPROVALS DATE DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PLANNER/ZONING ENGINEER INSPECTIONS ARB DEPARTMENT OF FIRE RESCUE ALBEMARLE COUNTY SERVICE AUTHORITY VIRGINIA DEPARMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 14.

They are highlighting the townhouse developments instead of the block area being amended.
