Subject:
SDP202000065 Ivy Proper— Initial Site Plan
The Planner for the Planning Services Division of the Albemarle County Department Community Development
will approve the plan referred to above when the following items 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.]
Please contact Mariah Gleason at the Department of Community Development at maleason akalbmarle.org 296-

COMMENTS THAT MUST BE ADDRESSED WITH THE INITIAL SITE PLAN:
1. [32.4.2.5(c)] Proposed water usage. The initial site plan needs to demonstrate that, as proposed, the
development on this site is viable. The estimated water usage currently listed on the Cover Sheet (875
gallons per day), exceeds the by -right, permitted water usage on this site (348 gallons per day). Revise the
plan to demonstrate that the proposed building does not exceed a water usage of 348 gallons per day.
2. [32.5.2(b)] Shared parking. Since a shared parking arrangement is being proposed, written documentation
will be needed to confirm that the adjacent parcel owner of TMP 58A2-20A is aware and agreeable to a
shared parking agreement. (Note: An email would suffice.)

Re: SDP202000065 Ivy Proper
Dear Mr. Reid Murphy,
In consultation with the Albemarle County Service Authority, the Community Development Department
finds that the cost of connecting the proposed development to the public water supply, exclusive of
connection fees, exceeds the cost of installing an on -site well and/or an onsite sewage system; therefore,
pursuant to County Code § 18-4. 1 (a)(2), the connection to public water supply is not required. The
development will still be required to meet all other building code and zoning regulations for the proposed
project.
Please contact the Planning Division within the Community Development Department with any additional
questions.
Sincerely,
Jodie Filardo
Community Development Director

Review #1
Dear Ms. Gleason:
(804) 786-2701
Fax: (804) 786,2940
The Department of Transportation, Charlottesville Residency Transportation and Land Use
Section, has reviewed the Ivy Proper Initial Site Plan and have the following comments:
1. Please provide turn lane warrants.
2. Dimension to entrances, show additional details for both sides of road.
3. Proposed entrance does not appear to meet commercial entrance designs along highways
with shoulders. Seepage F-108 in the VDOT road design manual, Appendix F. Please
note, the curb radii should be offset from the EP.
4. Please show mill and overlay on plans in accordance with WP-2. Show limits of mill and
overlay to adjacent travel lane. Also, please add the WP-2 detail to the plans.
5. Please provide an MOT plan in accordance with the Virginia Work Area Protection
Manual. MOT plan should be on a separate sheet and designed for this project, include
the proposed mill and overlay phase of construction.
6. Please include a note stating that VDOT will only maintain within drainage easements to
the extent necessary to protect the roadway from flooding or damage.
7. There appears to be drainage swale from bridge area that has not been adequately
addressed. Final site plan will adequately address the drainage along Rte. 250.
8. Please extend drainage study to daylight for verification of existing pipe and outfall area
adequacy.
9. Please note that the final site plan must show conformance with the VDOT Road Design
Manual Appendices B(1) and F, as well as any other applicable standards, regulations, or
other requirements.
