The County of Albemarle Planning Division will recommend approval of the plat referenced above once the following
comments, and those provided by other Site Review Committee, SRC, members, have been satisfactorily addressed. 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.]
[14-317] Instrument evidencing maintenance. Provide an instrument evidencing the maintenance of the proposed easement
areas. If maintenance is assigned to a party or entity other than the property owners — such as an HOA — please be aware that
confirmation will be needed from said party or entity to verify that the continued maintenance of this easement is
acceptable. These documents will need to be submitted for review/approval by the County Attorney's Office once the plat is
found to satisfy all other review comments. Rev. 1: Comment remains. The applicant has indicated that these materials
are currently being drafted. When received, staff will forward these materials, in addition to the plat dated
8/11/2020, to the County Attorney's Office for review.

accordance with the Albemarle County Water Protection Ordinance." Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
