[Section 15, 14-302(B)(5)] Zoning. The parcel is zoned R-4. Development rights are not applicable to this zoning designation. Remove the development rights note (note #8). 2. [14-302(B)(6)] Reservoir watershed. Revise note #9 to state that these properties are not located in a water supply watershed. While they are located in the Meadow Creek Watershed, this is not a waster supply watershed. 3. [Comment] Remove note #11 and #12, as this plat does not create a new street. 4. [Comment] Throughout the plat utilize the same call out to refer to the lots, currently there are two different terms being used, Lot 1 & Lot 2, and Lot I & Lot 1B. Revise to only use one call out. 5. [14-312] Existing buildings. Depict and label all existing buildings. 6. [14-302(B)(4)] Places of burial. Provide a statement about the presence of graves or structures marking a place of burial located on the property. 7. [14-414, 4.11 Public Water. Each lot shall be served by the public water supply. Depict the water line and waterline easement serving the lots. Based on the plat that preceded this one the waterline runs in the center of Rio Road. 8. [14-302(B)(10)] Stream Buffers. Shade the WPO stream buffer. Utilize a different hatching than used for the preserved slopes. 9. [14-316] Approval of entrance onto public streets. Prior to final plat approval submit evidence that the entrance of the principal means of access for each lot onto the existing public street complies with Virginia Department of Transportation standards. I recently forwarded the plat to VDOT for review. Once their review comments are received, I'll forward them to you. If you have already obtained this documentation please provide it to staff. 10. [14-303(A)] Statement of Consent to Division. Remove the consent to division statement from the County approval block. Also, revise the owner's consent to division statement to read: "The platting or dedication of the following described land [insert correct description of the land subdivided] is with free consent and in accordance with the desire of the undersigned owners, proprietors and trustees, if any. " If the applicant would like to continue utilizing the previous ordinance language: `Any reference to future potential development is to be deemed as theoretical. All statements affixed to this plat are true and correct to the best of my knowledge. " Please utilize it as a separate note on the plat. Revise. Comments attached for the following reviewers: Engineering — John Anderson Fire and Rescue — Shawn Maddox Comments for the following reviewers will be forwarded once received: ACSA — Richard Nelson VDOT — Adam Moore Staff has provided references to provisions of Chapter 14 of the Code of the County of Albemarle.

In accord with the provisions of Section 14-229(B) of Chapter 14 of the Code if the developer fails to submit a revised final plat to address all of the requirements within six (6) months after the date of this letter the application shall be deemed to have been voluntarily withdrawn by the developer.

Box 5787, Charlottesville, VA 22905 [ hkhpropertieskgmail.com ] 15 Jun 2020 16 Jun 2020 John Anderson Christopher Perez Engineering has reviewed the final plat and offers the following comments. 1. Eliminate Note 7. Note 14 is sufficient, provided it is accurate. Also, item 2, below. 2. Lots I and I contain limited areas (accessible from Rio Road) available for structures or private entrances located at least 5' beyond 30' prescriptive right-of-way, and yet not located within a stream buffer, flood zone `AE', existing easement, preserved steep slopes, and with required minimum building separation. These areas are estimated to be —2,000 sf and 2,800 sf, max., respectively. Geometry required of entrances onto Rio Road complicates viability of residential construction on Lots I and I (Also, item 6, below). Note 14 (review item 1) states each lot is sufficient to contain a building site that complies with Sec. 4.2.1 of the Albemarle Zoning Ordinance. [14-302.A.9 ] Please depict the `location, area, and dimensions of a building site on each proposed lot complying with the requirements of section 18-4.2.' If plat is approved, residential construction will be severely constrained once lot entrance geometry, on -site critical resources (FEMA flood zone, slopes, stream buffer), existing easements, and minimum building separation requirements are applied to (overlay) the proposed subdivision. Also, item 4, below. 3. [ 14-304, Request to disturb steep slopes.] It appears that the proposed subdivision will likely require disturbing steep slopes to provide sanitary sewer or water (lateral) connections to residential structures. Provide plat Note stating `Water, sewer, energy, and communications distribution facilities are a by -right use on preserved slopes, but that to the extent distribution facilities are established on preserved slopes, the preserved slopes should be preserved to the maximum extent practicable consistent with the intent and purpose of the steep slopes overlay district.' 4. Provide entrance/turnaround schematics that reflect standard entrance geometry for a private entrance onto a public road for each lot (IA/1B); recommend on -site ability to maneuver a vehicle on each lot such that vehicles may exit in a forward and not reverse direction. Rio Road at this location does not admit possibility of safe exit from either lot in a reverse direction. Also, review item 6, below. Engineering Review Comments Page 2 of 2 M n x m w w� �s .
