designation. Remove the development rights note (note #8). Rev 1. Comment addressed.

watershed. While they are located in the Meadow Creek Watershed, this is not a waster supply watershed. Rev1.
Comment addressed.
3. [Comment] Remove note #11 and #12, as this plat does not create a new street. Rev 1. Comment addressed.
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 IA & Lot 113. Revise to only use one call out. Rev 1. Comment addressed.
5. [14-312] Existing buildings. Depict and label all existing buildings. Rev 1. Comment addressed.

burial located on the property. Rev 1. Comment addressed.
7. 114-414, 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

preserved slopes. Rev 1. Comment addressed.
9. [14-316] Approval ofentrance onto public streets. Prior to fmal 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. Rev 1. Comment still relevant.
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. " Rev 1. Comment addressed.
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 ofmy knowledge. " Please utilize it as a separate note on the plat. Revise. Rev 1. Comment addressed.
11. [14-302(B)(1)] General Information. Remove note #15 from the plat.
12. [14-302(B)(1)] General Information. The area tabulations for the plat do not coincide between the Area

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. (Rev. 1) Addressed.
2. Lots IA and 1B 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 IA 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. (Rev. 1)
Addressed. As follow-up: see new item 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.' (Rev. 1) Addressed.
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. (Rev. 1)
Addressed, but unclear whether space exists on -site for vehicles to maneuver and exit in forward direction.

5. [14-312] Show location of all existing buildings on Lot I (to be subdivided).
(Note: Existing house is shown on plat at bk-pg. 5280-472.) [ Image showing house included with initial
review comments removed with Rev. 1 review comments. ] (Rev. 1) Addressed.
6. [14-316] Prior to approval, coordinate with VDOT. Provide evidence that the entrance (principal means of
access) for each lot onto Rio Road complies with VDOT standards, including sight distance and entrance
spacing. (Rev. 1) Comment may persist. Applicant response (email, David Jordan to C. Perez, August 24,
2020 6:25 PM) included correspondence from VDOT. Correspondence from VDOT d. Jul-7, 2020 pertains
to plat review #1, while specific new private entrance geometry is presented with revised final plat.
Recommend VDOT be given opportunity to review revised final subdivision plat.
New (Rev. 1)
7. Preserved steep slopes legend: Rotate legend linework to match pattern used on graphic portion of plat
8. Recommend legend symbol /line -type for buildable area/s.
