to certain Zoning Ordinance and Subdivision Ordinance requirements that do not pertain to improvements

calculations and building height notes on Sheet 1 have not been checked. First revision: Comment

providing parking on individual lots. Please clarify the required parking nots on Sheet 1; the calculation
should state "I guest parking space per every 4 attached single-family units" and state the required number
(10 spaces, fractions must be rounded up).First revision: Comment addressed.

and cannot be provided on private lots within a landscaping easement unless VDOT specifically says the

on lots 2, 4, 8, 33, 34, 35, 36, 39, 42, and 43 need to be relocated so that they are within the landscaping
strip within the street right-of-way. First revision: Comment addressed.
