Review # 1
Dear Mr. Perez:
The Department of Transportation, Charlottesville Residency Transportation and Land Use
Section, has reviewed the above referenced plan as submitted by Collins Engineering, dated 10
July 2020 and offer the following comments:
1. Proposed entrance does not meet the minimum spacing distance required. Please see
VDOT's Road Design Manual appendix F., pg., F-23, minimum spacing distance
standards for commercial entrances and intersections and median crossovers. As
proposed an AM-E will be required.
2. Right of Way Dedication will need to be conveyed and deeded to the commonwealth of
Virginia prior to final site plan approval.
3. The concrete path shown does not meet VDOT standards for a shared use path, nor does
it connect to a VDOT shared use path on either end. VDOT will only maintain
pedestrian facilities that meet our design standards. We recommend installation of a
standard 5 ft. wide sidewalk here.
Please provide two copies of the revised plan along with a comment response letter. If further
information is desired, please contact Willis Bedsaul at 434-422-9866.
A VDOT Land Use Permit will be required prior to any work within the right-of-way. The
owner/developer must contact the Charlottesville Residency Transportation and Land Use
Section at (434) 422-9399 for information pertaining to this process.
Sincerely,
Adam J. Moore, P.E.

Subject: Sleep Number Charlottesville — Final Site Plan (SDP202000054)
The final site plan for Sleep Number Charlottesville has been reviewed by Engineering. The following
comments will need to be addressed before approval:
I. WPO must be submitted and approved before final site plan approval.
2. VDOT approval will be necessary.
3. Please double check topography. It does not appear to match county GIS.
4. Work is shown offsite/outside of property lines. Permission or temporary easement will be
necessary for this work.
5. Retaining walls above 4 ft will require stamped, engineered plans with their building permit.
6. Please show SWM facility and drainage easements. These will need to be recorded with deeds
before final site plan approval. Please note that no trees shall be in these easements.
7. Please show all site features on the landscaping plan. For example, Basin B is not shown. It
appears there may be trees in the basin.
8. Please show sight distance lines at the entrance.

RE: ARB-2020-69: Sleep Number Final (TMP: 06100-00-00-134A0)
Dear Mr. Collins,
The Albemarle County Architectural Review Board reviewed the above noted item at its meeting on
Monday, August 3, 2020. The Board unanimously approved the request, pending staff
administrative approval of the following conditions:
1. Provide window glass information.
2. Provide physical samples of proposed building materials.
3. Clarify the proposed color for the metal wall panels.
4. Revise the plans to show the locations of all mechanical equipment. Show how visibility
of the equipment will be eliminated from the EC.
5. Revise the photometric plan to provide illumination values using the point -by -point
method and indicate the maximum fc value.
6. Revise the lighting plan to indicate the color temperature of the pole light. The color
temperature must be 3000K or less.
7. Revise note 4 under the Luminaire Schedule to indicate that light fixtures will have lamps
emitting warm white light.
8. Coordinate note 5 under the Luminaire Schedule with the color identified in the cut sheet
for the wall fixtures. Ensure a consistent color for all fixtures.
9. Without reducing the overall quantity of plants, limit the number of proposed plants for
any one species to 25% of the total proposed for that plant type (tree, shrub).
10. Revise the landscape plan to show new trees throughout the area of tree removal on the
adjacent parcel to the south.
11. Include a note on the plan stating that the new end of the retaining wall on the bank
parcel will be given a clean finish with materials matching the existing wall materials.
12. Indicate on the site plan the proposed retaining wall color. A sample may be required for
review.
13. Show a "tree line to remain" and tree protection fencing on the adjacent parcel to the
south.
14. Reduce the blue outline on the sign letters for a more streamlined appearance. A
separate sign application is required.
Please provide:
1. One set of revised drawings addressing each of these conditions. Include updated revision
dates on each drawing.
2. A memo including detailed responses indicating how each condition has been satisfied. If
changes other than those requested have been made, identify those changes in the memo
