_ The entire development should be marked no parking due to the travel way widths_ This should include signs and marking of
the curbs due to large vehicles needing to turn around using the proposed intersections and not consistently use the
emergency entrance unless Alley A is to be widened-
3- Provide the ISO needed fire flow for the site and also the available water supply_

RE: Proffit Road Townhomes South
Initial Site Plan
SDP201900064
Ms. Nedostup:
As requested, I've reviewed the Initial Site Plan (11/4/19) for the proposed construction
referenced above. It appears all new facilities will be connected to public water and sewer
systems, and therefore I see no issues with the plan.
With regards to the existing residence (3226 Proffit Rd), the existing private well that will be
removed must be abandoned properly by a licensed well driller and will require permitting by the
Charlottesville/Albemarle Health Department, however this is not an issue that should affect
whether or not the site plan is approved.
If there are any questions or concerns, please give me a call, 434-972-4306.
Sincerely,
Alan Mazurowski

From: Megan Nedostup- Principal Planner
Division: Planning Services
Date: December 17, 2019
Subject: SDP-2019-064 Proffit Road Townhomes South- Initial Site Plan
The Planner for the Planning Services Division of the Albemarle County Department
Community Development will recommend approve the plan referred to above when the
following items have been satisfactorily addressed. (The following comments are those
that have been identified at this time. Additional comments or conditions may be added
or eliminated based on further review.) [Each comment is preceded by the applicable
reference to the Albemarle County Code.]
Requirements:
1. [32.5.2a] The front maximum setback is listed incorrectly on the cover sheet. The
maximum front setback for R15 is 25 feet. Revise.
2. [32.5.2a] List the building separation requirement of 10 feet.
3. [32.5.2b] The Land Use schedule needs a number of revisions:
a. The open space listed on one location states 51,717sf, then is listed as
7,OOOsf below. Open space has a definition and it's unclear if there are
elements being counted as open space that are permitted as open space
under the definition.
b. The percentages and square feet calculations don't seem to be correct.
Double check the math. The amounts provided do not seem to add up.
4. [32.5.2b] The number of parking spaces listed does not meet the requirements of
the ordinance. 2.25 spaces are required for each unit, which equals 90 total
required spaces. Revise to meet the requirements.
5. [32.5.2n] Label the area between the emergency access and the main entrance.
Will this be open space?
6. [32.5.2n] Sidewalk connections are needed from the public sidewalks to the front
of the units for pedestrian access.
7. [32.5.2n] A sidewalk connection is needed to connect the sidewalks from Private
Road A to the sidewalks on Private Road C. There is only a landscape strip and
pedestrian access is needed.
8. [32.5.2n] Will ramps be provided for the corners of the blocks on the sidewalks
for ADA access? Show ramps.
9. [32.5.2n] Label the materials for the sidewalks and paths.
10. Will lighting be provided? If so, a lighting plan that meets the requirements of the
ordinance needs to be provided with the final site plan.
11. [32.5.2n] If the tot lot will contain the equipment required in the ordinance provide
a note on the plan that states that tot lot equipment will be provided in
accordance with 4.16.
12. Easements will be required for sidewalk and planting strips that are contained in
the lots and not within the right of way.
