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.] 1. [14-212(A)(2), Family Subdivision Application] Affidavit. A signed, notarized copy of the affidavit, as provided in the family subdivision application, is a mandatory component of the subdivision application and will needed before the final plat can be approved. Rev. 1: Comment still applies. This information is still needed from the applicant. 2. [14-212(B)] Restrictive covenants. Restrictive covenants are required on lots created by family subdivision. Please submit covenants that meet the requirements of Sec. 14-212(B) to the staff reviewer in the next submission. Staff will forward these materials to the County Attorney for review and approval. This will be needed before the final plat can be approved. Rev. 1: Comment still applies. This information is still needed from the applicant. 3. [ 14-212(D)] Family subdivision note. Include the following required note on the plat: "No lot shown on this family subdivision plat may be sold or conveyed to a person other than an eligible `member of the immediate family,' as that term is defined in Chapter 14 of the Albemarle County Code, for a period of four (4) years after the date of recordation of this plat except as authorized by Sec. 14-212(A) of the Albemarle County Code. If any lot created by the recordation of this plat is conveyed back to the grantor during the four (4) year period, it shall be recombined with the parent lot within six (6) months after such conveyance." Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 4. [14-301(A)] Scale. Provide a scale baron Sheet 2 to accompany the scale text description (1`100'). Rev. 1: Comment withdrawn. 5. [14-302(B), 10.4] Yards. Review and revise the following: a. The setback requirements noted on the plat do not align with the current County Ordinances. Revise the yards/setbacks to align with the rural area regulations, as provided in Sec. 10.4 of Chapter 18. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. b. Demonstrate the rear yard setbacks for proposed Lot 1 on the plat map. (Note: Per the proposed lot shape, this lot appears to have two rear yards.) Rev. 1: Comment withdrawn. 6. [14-312] Existing building locations. Provide on the plat, distance measurements between the edges of existing buildings (i.e. the house and shed) and the proposed property line. (Note: Per Sec. 4.11.2(b) of Chapter 18, accessory structures, as defined in the 4.11.2(c) are not permitted any closer than six (6) feet to the side or rear property lines.) Rev. 1: Comment addressed. Thank you for providing this information. 7. [14-302(A)(9)] Building sites. Revise the note regarding building sites to instead read, "Residue TMP 93-44D and Lot 1 each contain a building site that complies with Sec. 4.2.1 of the Albemarle County Zoning Ordinance." It is necessary that this note acknowledge and confirm that the revised parcel — Residue TMP 93-44D — meets this requirement. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 8. [Advisory Comment] Similarly, when referring to the amended parcel TMP 93-44D in the notes, or on the plat map, please use "Residue TMP 93-44D" to distinguish between the current lot (TMP 93-44D) and the proposed lot (Residue TMP 93- 44D). It tends to be confusing otherwise. Rev. 1: Comment sufficiently addressed. 9. [14-302(A)(11)] Instrument reference. The deed book and page reference noted on the plat, confirming the creation of the subject property and its boundaries, appears to be for a different lot — TMP 94-17 instead of TMP 93-44D (see attached). This may be due to a mistake on the County GIS portal. Please review and revise to provide an instrument which confirms the creation of the entire subject property as it exists today. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 10. [14-303(A)] Statement of consent. The statement of consent references a different parcel ID. Please revise. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 11. [14-302(A)(10)] Development rights. Include a note on the plat confirming the number of development rights Residue TMP 93-44D will be retaining with this subdivision plat. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 12. [14-303(C)] Boundary lines. Confirm the length of the northernmost edge of TMP 93-44D. The plat currently denotes two lengths for this boundary line — 401.90' and 408.80'. Which one is correct? Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 13. [ 14-302(A)(7)] Departing lot lines. Show the departing lot line for abutting parcel TMP 94-44C on the plat. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. Mr. Garrett confirmed that Albemarle County GIS is incorrect in this location and the boundary lines demonstrated on the plat are correct. 14. [14-303(S)] Control points. Include on the plat map at least four (4) control points, evenly distributed across the property and located at survey property corners. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 15. [14-302(B)] North arrow. If true north is used, provide the method of determination. (Note: In comparison with Albemarle County GIS, the parcel line representation does not appear to align with the north arrow given.) Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 16. [Advisory Comment] Notes. Consider numbering each note for easy reference through the review process and in future references to notes on this plat. 17. [14-302(B)(1)] Resubmission. Reminder that revised plats must include the original date of drawing as well as a date of last revision. Rev. 1: Comment still applies. Revisions to the plat are needed. See review comment #21. 18. [ 14-309, 14-310, 14-416] Health Director approval. The Health Director will need to approve individual private wells and onsite sewage systems before the final plat can be approved. Rev. 1: Comment still applies. Approval from the Health Department has not been received by the lead planner. 19. [14-212(C), 14-316] Access. VDOT will need to approve the new driveway entrance onto State Route 729 before approval of the final plat can be granted. Rev. 1: Comment still applies. Approval from VDOT has not been received by the lead planner. 20. [14-308.1] Groundwater assessment. The required groundwater assessment for this applications has been completed. Please see the attached report. Additional Comments based on revised plat dated 4/9/2020: 21. [14-400] Minimum lot frontage. Both lots need to have a minimum of 250ft of uninterrupted frontage along the existing public road to meet the minimum lot requirements for parcels in the Rural Area, as described in Sec. 10.4. Please review and revise the plat accordingly. Apologies that this comment was not identified sooner.
