Countv Plannina — Cameron Lanaille (SUB-2019-00170). Comments dated Julv 23. 2020
1. [General Comment] Please be aware that Planning staff are not reviewing notes
and calculations related to certain Zoning Ordinance and Subdivision Ordinance
requirements that do not pertain to improvements or land disturbances unrelated
to the actual road construction. For example, the allowable density calculations
and building height notes on Sheet 1 have not been checked. Comment
acknowledged.
2. [4.12.6] One guest parking space per four units is required for single-family
attached units that are providing parking on individual lots. Please clarify the
required parking notes on Sheet 1; the calculation should state 1 guest parking
space per every 4 attached single-family units" and state the required number
(10 spaces, fractions must be rounded up). Comment addressed.
a. Under "Parking Provided" on Sheet 1, state that 18 on -street guest spaces
are provided. Comment addressed.
3. [32.7.9.5 (d)] Street trees must be provided within the 6' landscaping strip within
the public right-of-way, and cannot be provided on private lots within a
landscaping easement unless VDOT specifically says the trees have to be
located outside of the ROW. Conflicts with proposed utilities is a reason that
street trees can be located on private lots under Section 32.7.9.5; this is a design
issue that must be rectified. Trees 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. Comment addressed.
4. [32.7.9.5 (d)] Revise the street tree calculation for Fowler Street and Fowler
Circle on Sheet 19. Fractions should be rounded up. 28 trees are required for
Fowler Street and 24 trees are required for Fowler Circle. Comment addressed.
5. [32.7.9.5] Remove the callout for the 8 TC trees at the southeast end of Fowler
Street on Sheet 17, they are not being provided/shown on the plans. Comment
addressed.

Revision #2.
1. Sheet 1:
a. Accurate current existing topography and conditions should be field verified
within the last year.
b. Topography may need to be resurveyed (2016 - Last aerial survey). (Rev.1)
Acknowledged.
2. Include County's'General Construction Notes for Public Streets'. (Rev.1) Not addressed.
(Rev.2) Acknowledged.
3. Sheet 13:
a. Check that the inlet design is correct (LD-204 worksheet). Inlet 23 shows no DA;
Inlet 3 Cross SI (Sx). Show correct ID downstream. What is Q
intercepted/bypassed, C values (LD-204, Show similar form data)? [Refer to
Table 9.1 of VDOT DM] (Rev.1) Addressed.
b. Correct pipes with velocity under 3 fps (LD-229 worksheet). Show similar form
data. [9.3.5, VDOT DM]. (Rev.1) Not addressed. The minimum scour velocity
is 3 fps. Response: The pipe velocity has been increased where possible. The
remaining pipes with velocity under 3 fps are short pipes that join into the system
from the other side of the road. The slopes in these pipes have been increased to
over 7% minimum to aid in the flushing of sediment through the pipes. The
velocity is under 3 fps due the small drainage areas serving these inlets. Multiple
inlets are necessary due to the space restrictions between driveways. Please see
the email from Max Greene, VDOT, on 6/8/2020 where he agrees with the design
of the system as shown. Inlet shaping is called in the structures to prevent
standing water. (Rev.2) Acknowledged.
c. Reduce pipe outlet velocity to 10 fps or less (LD-229 worksheet). (Rev.1)
Addressed.
d. Provide HGL computations (LD-347). (Rev.1) Addressed.
e. Add note or callout to include IS-1, inlet shaping at flow intersections (Str 3, 14,
15, 16, 17). (Rev.1) Addressed.
4. Show/label angle of intersection at entrances. -80 degrees (Min)? [14-410] (Rev.1)
Please add label to both intersections showing the angle. (Rev.2) Acknowledged.
5. Show offsite grading easement for the temporary fire access road grading proposed.
-how f - nporary access easement for the road as well. (Rev.1) Ar'- A.
6. Record access easement prior to road plan approval. (Rev.1/2) Acknowledged;
Comment still valid. Plat undergoing review.
Response: Acknowledged, the easement plat has been submitted for review. The grading
easement at the entrance of Fowler has been added and the widths of the storm easements
have been updated.
7. Submit an amendment to any grading plans affected by the proposed access road
construction. They will have to be reviewed/approved prior to road plan approval.
Response: No amendments are necessary. (Rev.1) Acknowledged.
8. Sheet 7: Show width of on -street parking. Response: Dimensions have been added to
the Site Plan sheet 4. (Rev.1) Addressed.
9. Sheet 9: Show any pipe/utility crossings in the profiles. (Rev.1) Addressed.
10. Sheet 10: Add cross -drains or underdrain at sag. (Rev.1) Stormwater will be
impounded by the access road. Temporary E&SC controls would be needed and a
WPO plan would need to be submitted. (Rev.2) Currently addressed.
11. Sheet 11: It appears that sight distance easements need to be shown for those outside
of the ROW. (Rev.1) Addressed. Submit a plat to recorded them prior to FSP
approval.
12. Sheet 12: Where does the road drainage go beyond storm str 12? Show inlets. (Rev.1)
Acknowledged. Submit a WPO plan approval required prior to FSP approval.
Rev.2) Currently addressed.
13. Provide earthwork vol. estimates of cut & fill for the roads & access grading. Response:
The entire parcel will require 119 cubic yards of import. (Rev.1) Acknowledged.
14. (Rev.1) The grade for the emergency access needs to be 10% or less. [18-4.12.17]
(Rev.2) Addressed.
15. (Rev.1) The minimum recommended storm size pipe is 15" dia. Initial pipe runs can use
12" dia. if the length of pipe is 50' or less. The max access hole spacing is 50' for 12"
dia. 300' for 15-42" dia. pipe. [VDOT DM 9.3.5, 9.3.6, table 9-3] (Rev.2) Addressed.
