From: Tori Kanellopoulos- Senior Planner
Division: Planning Services
Date: March 13, 2020
Subject: SUB202000041 - Castalia - Rural Subdivision
The County of Albemarle Planning Division will approve 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.]
1. [14-416] and [14-309] and [14-310] Health Director Approval. Approval from the
Health Director is required for this application. Soils work has not yet been
received.
2. [14-316] New entrance onto public streets. This plat has been sent to VDOT for
their review and approval.
3. [14-307] Stream crossing. Engineering is reviewing the proposed subdivision plat
for compliance with this section.
4. [14-302(A)(8)] Building site. Show a building site for new Parcel C1. This parcel
has significant constraints (WPO buffer, power line easements, critical slopes).
5. [14-302(A)(9)] Floodplain. Show and label the floodplain (flood hazard overlay)
on new Parcel C-1.
6. [1 4-302(A)(1 0)] Development rights. Revise the development rights note to show
that revised Parcel D has five (5) development rights, not seven (7). The
maximum for any parcel is five.
7. [14-303(D)] Acreage. The residue acreage for the residue of TMP 65-11 E (and,
therefore, the total acreage of revised Lot D) appears to be incorrect.
8. [Notes]
a. Sheet 1 lists the parcels as TMP 55, instead of 65.
b. Sheet 1 lists the subdivision as "a portion of Parcel C", however it is a
portion of parcel TMP 65-11 E.
9. [Advisory Comment] Attached are guidelines from Dominion Energy on
applications and powerline easements. The County does not enforce power
company requirements. Virginia Electric may have different requirements than
Dominion, therefore Planning advises the applicant to reach out to the power
company for their input. Parcel C-1 appears to require either an entrance through
the floodplain or an entrance through the powerline easement.
