The County of Albemarle Planning Division will grant or recommend approval of the plat referenced above once
the following comments have been addressed: [Each comment is preceded by the applicable reference, which

1. [General Comment] Please remove Note 2 on Sheet 1.
2. [14-302 (A)(3)] Please state the width of Old Brook Road on Sheet 2.
3. [14-302 (A)(4)] Please state the deed book and page number for the instrument that created Northfield
Road in the street label on Sheet 2.
4. [14-302 (A)(10)] Please amend Note 12 on Sheet 1 to state Lot 1C and the residue of Tax Map Parcel
062A1-00-OG-001BO each contain a building site that complies with section 4.2.1 of the Albemarle County
Zoning Ordinance.
5. [14-302 (113)(5)] Please state all applicable overlay zoning districts in Note 1 on Sheet 1. The property lies
within the Airport Impact Area (AIA), the Entrance Corridor (EC), and Managed Steep Slopes overlay
districts.
6. [14-302 (B)(7)] The Meadow Creek watershed is not a water supply watershed. Sheet 1, Note 5 should
state that the property does not lie within a water supply watershed.
7. [14-316] VDOT approval is required for the entrance onto Old Brook Road that will serve Lot 1C.
8. [14-302 (13)(8), 14-400 and 18-4.19] The new lot is considered an infill development and must abide by
infill setback requirements. As was discussed during the preapplication meeting with Rob Cummings on 6-
5-2017, and as was stated in the preapplication notes letter sent to Rob on 6-6-2017, Zoning staff has
determined that the minimum front setback for Lot 1C is 70' from the right-of-way line with Old Brook
Road. This is based on an analysis of the closest front setback for a building on the same side of Old Brook
Road as Lot 1C. This distance may change with more accurate survey information provided by a licensed
land surveyor. Please refer to comments from the Zoning Division below.
a. Please amend Note 13 on Sheet 1 to state the applicable setbacks for Lot 1B and Lot 1C.
b. Please amend the setback lines on Sheet 2 as necessary to comply with the infill setbacks.
