Albemarle County Planning Services (Planner) — Cameron Langille, blangille@albemarle.org — Required changes
prior to preliminary plat approval:
1. [14-218] Total fees for the preliminary plat include $1,236.00 review fee + $75.00 Fire Rescue fee +
$215.00 mailed notice fee = $1,526.00 total. County records show that $1,311.00 has been paid for this
application. Please submit payment for the remaining $215.00 prior to the action deadline for this
application (Friday, February 5, 2021).
2. [14-400] Please add a note stating what type of subdivision this is. Per Section 18-15.3, the minimum permitted
lot size for standard level conventional subdivisions in the R4 district is 10,890 sq. ft. The minimum permitted
lot size for bonus level conventional subdivisions is 7,260 sq. ft. There are lots as small as 1,700 sq. ft. proposed.
The only subdivision types with no minimum lot sizes are standard level cluster developments, and bonus level
cluster developments. Which subdivision type is proposed here?
a. Since the lots sizes proposed can only be allowed through either a standard level cluster development or
bonus level cluster development, state which type is proposed.
b. Based on whatever development type is proposed, state the maximum permitted density. Standard level
cluster developments have a maximum permitted density of 4 du/acre. Bonus level cluster developments
have a maximum permitted density of 6 du/acre.
c. State the maximum proposed density in a note.
d. Per Section 18-2.2, cluster developments (both standard level and bonus level) must have a minimum of
25% open space. Add a note stating the minimum acreage of open space required, and the proposed
acreage/percent of open space proposed.
3. [14-316, , 14-403, 14-409, 14-410] This plat shows two street connections to adjacent parcels, TMP 06200-00-
00-016DO and TMP 062A3-00-00-OO1130. Those parcels are within the limits of the Belvedere development.
However, no streets have been created in either parcel. Please see comments from Albemarle County Fire &
Rescue and the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) for additional information. Please address the
following:
a. [14-316,14-410 (F), 14-403] The principal means of access to new subdivisions shall either be a public
or private street. There are no existing streets or right-of-way located on the adjacent parcels where
interconnections (Fowler Street and Adam Street) are proposed to provide access to the subdivision. The
plat will be denied unless an application (road plan and right-of-way plat) are submitted that identify
how the Dunlora Farm subdivision will connect to public streets on TMP 62-16D.
4. [14-410] Please see Fire & Rescue comments #2 and #4. The plat must be revised as follows:
a. Revise cul-de-sac diameters so that they are 96' in width.
b. Please confirm that the proposed street widths comply with the dimensions specified in Fire Rescue
comment #4.
5. [14-302 (A)(12)] Please see attached Engineering comments (#1-7) regarding the topography exhibit in
relation to Preserved Steep Slopes. In order to comply with applicable State and County regulations, the
steep slopes exhibits must be revised so they are sealed by a licensed land surveyor in order to use LiDAR
(currently shown) to establish true topography on site.
6. [14-302 (13)(1)] Please add a date of last revision.
Comment to be addressed prior to final plat approval:
7. [General Comment] Road plan approval will be required prior to final plat approval. Prior to final plat approval,
the private street will need to either be built or bonded.
8. [General Comment] Final plat must demonstrate compliance with all applicable Subdivision Ordinance
requirements prior to approval. This includes all applicable Sections of 14-303, 14-302 through 14-312,

9. [14-302 (A)(3) & 14-302 (A)(4)] Please show the existing "non-exclusive right-of-way" described in DB 4299
page 58. This is not shown on the plat. Is this a private easement? Based on the recorded instrument referenced
I this comment, this appears to be a private access easement. However, staff cannot find a plat that shows the
locations of the easement. Please provide documentation as to whether this easement/ROW still exists, who
owns it, and explain what the intent is for it. Will it be extinguished?
10. [14-302 (A)(4)] Please revise labels for all proposed private easements so that they state the easement
dimensions.
11. [14-302 (A)(5)] Please show the location and dimensions of all existing and proposed public easements outside

family attached lots.
a. Additionally, lot numbers are missing from some of the proposed single-family detached lots along
Fowler Street. Please revise so that all lots have a lot number and their dimensions and acreages are
stated.
13. [14-302 (A)(14)] Add a note to the plat stating who will own and maintain all private open space areas.
14. [14-302 (A)(15)] Please state the names and addresses of any easement holders that affect the properties as a
note on the final plat.
15. [14-302 (B)(10)] Revise the WPO stream buffer labels so that it states "Water Protection Ordinance Stream
Buffer."
a. Add a note to the plat stating "The stream buffer(s) shown hereon shall be managed in accordance with
the Albemarle County Water Protection Ordinance."
16. [14-303 (A)] On the final plat, please add a statement of consent to division as follows: "The platting or
dedication of the following described land [insert a correct description of the land subdivided] is with the free
consent and in accordance with the desire of the undersigned owners, proprietors and trustees, if any."
17. [14-303 (C)] Provide The exterior boundary lines of the property with bearings in degrees, minutes and seconds.
Curvilinear data shall include radius, central angle, arc length, and tangent distance. All dimensions shall
conform to the standards set forth in this chapter.
18. [14-303 (D)] Clearly state the total acreage of each existing lot and each proposed lot.
19. [14-303 (E)] All linear, angular, and curvilinear dimensions of lots, streets, alleys, public easements and private

1. VGIN LIDAR is acceptable source of topography. Please provide date of photometric data.
2. VGIN LIDAR data is acceptable source of exhibit topography, with LS-seal on Steep Slopes Exhibit.
3. Any sheet that shows existing topography and physical improvements must be sealed by a licensed land
surveyor if VGIN LIDAR data is basis of existing or proposed topography.
4. Note: Please see email to RGA, 1/27/2021 11:13 AM, which outlines county interpretation re. use of
LiDAR data as source of topography for any design that shows physical improvements. Also, § 54.1-402,
Code of Virginia.
5. Please edit title of Critical Slopes Exhibit to Steep Slopes Exhibit since project is in the development area.
6. Please also ensure all numeric -text information on each sheet of Steep Slopes exhibit is readable, % slope
for shaded (steep slopes) or unshaded (removed) areas, for example.
7. Please revise Note 9. to clarify that proposed grading shown on preliminary plat sheets occurs only in areas
shown by VGIN LIDAR (or physical survey) to be less than 25% grade, since grading cannot occur on
steep slope areas (>_ 25% slopes), except for SWM facility outfall/s.
8. Please revise Note 4 to reference May 16, 2016 (Floodplain Eff. Date, 18-30.3.2.)
V2
9. Show FEMA horizontal limits of floodplain continuous, unobscured by steep slopes shading.

10. Recommend remove lot 26 from horizontal limits of floodplain (blue circle, image, below).
11. Provide copy of recorded Retaining Wall Maintenance Agreement for any wall that spans lot lines, Lots
22-23, 3-4, 6-9, 150-151, 78-80 (and 82), and Lots 11-13, for example. Albemarle is not party to these
Agreements but needs deed bk.-pg. reference to recorded Retaining Wall Maintenance Agreements
between owners of affected lots.
12. Provide additional existing contour labels near proposed grading /dwellings, Lots 11-30, to aid review.
13. Revise `Private SWM Facility Easement' to `Public SWM Facility Easement.'
14. Please ensure subsequent WPO and ROAD Plans show runoff from Odom Ct., a public road, routed to
SWM facility (preliminary plat shows this via proposed storm line within easement between Lots 13-14),
this SWM facility appears to discharge across preserved slopes. The only by -right construction of a SWM
facility outfall across preserved steep slopes is if a SWM facility is a necessary, public facility, which it is if
it receives /treats runoff from Odom Court. (Ref. 18-30.7.4.b.I.e.)
15. Revise `private drainage easement' label (Lots 13, 14) to read `public drainage easement.'
16. Submit WPO and ROAD Plan and Floodplain Development Permit (FDP) applications at earliest
convenience.
17. Notes:
a. Steep Slopes Exhibit approval is required prior to/with Preliminary Plat approval since the steep
slopes exhibit proposes to remove critical areas proposed to be developed from the steep slopes
overlay district based on UDAR /photometric survey data.
b. Please see email sent to RGA on topic of slopes /LiDAR (January 22, 2021 3:35 PM, 1/27/2021
11:13 AM).
c. FDP review /approval is required prior to WPO plan approval. (link to FDP Application:
hfti)s://www.albemarle.org/home/Showpublisheddocument?id=176
d. Slopes exhibit approval is required prior to WPO plan approval, since SWM facility outfall crosses
preserved steep slopes.
e. ROAD Plan and WPO plan approval are required prior to Final Plat approval.
f. With WPO, provide detail sufficient to demonstrate compliance with state SWM quality /quantity
requirements.
g. A deed of dedication of public drainage easement and separate deed of dedication of public SWM
facility are required to be recorded with the final subdivision plat.
h. A WPO plan bond is required to receive a Grading Permit.
i. Roads must be built or bonded prior to final subdivision plat approval.
j. Retaining walls higher than 3' require a building permit.
k. Retaining walls higher than 4' require sealed plans.
Engineering Review Comments
Page 3 of 6
1. Submit sealed retaining wall plan to Engineering for review prior to/with ROAD plan or WPO
plan (or at earliest convenience).
m. Engineering review of retaining wall plans is separate from county building inspections review of
retaining wall plans.
18. SWM, East of intersection of Fowler Street and Goldsbeny Lane: Clarify with revised preliminary plat
how proposed grading with significant vertical interval works with proposed SWM. Identify type of SWM
facility proposed to be constructed within proposed private SWM facility easement.
19. Please revise Private SWMfacility easement label (last comment) to read Public SWM facility easement.
20. Engineering has general concerns that proposed development, including physical improvements (retaining
walls, residential units, SWM facilities, grades), occurs in close proximity to preserved steep slopes.
21. Once Steep Slopes Exhibit approved, revise steep slopes across all sheets to: preserve current steep slope
overlay boundaries (indicate with line-type/labels), indicate areas of former steep slopes overlay (areas
removed from steep slopes, no shading), and show steep slopes which persist steeper than 25%. Shade
persistent steep slopes. Please call if any questions. Goal is to eliminate ambiguity: preliminary plat does
not approve development across revised steep slopes.
22. RETAINING WALLS: Please review standards at 18-4.3.3.A. when designing retaining walls.
23. Cuts and Fills: Please review /ref. standards at 18-4.3.3.B.
24. Reverse slope benches /diversion: Please review 18-4.3.3.C.
25. Fire Access Road does not connect with Adams Street. Please clarify design intent.
26. Please ensure revised preliminary plat meets 18-30.3 requirements for permissible use or activity within
mapped floodplain.
27. Revise Floodzone Note to reference May 16, 2016 (FIRM), rather than Feb. 04, 2005. (see 18-30.3.2)
28. Check that shaded preserved and managed steep slopes exclude areas shown to be flatter than 25%, per
RGA Dunlora Farms Subdivision Critical Slopes Exhibit, dated 12/2/20, submitted with preliminary plat.
29. Ensure revised preliminary plat meets 18-30.3 requirements for permissible use or activity within mapped
floodplain.
V3
30. Label floodway if floodway linework displays on this sheet.
V4
31. Please revise private drainage and private SWM facility easement labels to reference public drainage and
public SWM facility easements.
V5
32. Remove retaining wall, Lot 165, from limits of mapped floodplain.
33. Tarlton Street storm pipe (behind Lot 173) must be revised to direct discharge perpendicular to grade.
Additional comments possible with WPO /ROAD (drainage) plan review.
34. It appears surface storm runoff may cross 3 or more lots, in one or more locations. Please note drainage
plan review checklist requirement:
provisions and easements for drainage across 3 or more lots. Dense development where
fencing, decking, etc is expected should provide yard inlets and pipes in easements,
rather than ditches {Policy}
V3-V5
35. `W' (ACSA waterline) does not display, please increase pitch of abbreviation with revised preliminary plat,
so visible.
36. Additional comments relating to roadway likely with ROAD Plan. For example: Miranda Drive appears to
provide right -of way F beyond sidewalk on south side of road, but appears coincident with edge of walk on
north side of road. Engineering requests public right-of-way extend F beyond sidewalks throughout the
development to allow future VDOT maintenance of sidewalks without encroaching on individual lots.
Engineering Review Comments
Page 4 of 6
37. Please revise any label reading private drainage easement to read public drainage easement if storm system
conveys runoff from a public road, whether runoff is routed to a SWM facility or not.
38. Floodplain, horizontal limits BFE: Although detail will be presented with the FDP Application, additional
detail is requested to be shown with the preliminary plat at this location. Show BFEs for Rivanna River, as
floodplain transits development parcel. Recommend overlay VFRIS FEMA FIRM floodway BFE data
across plan sheets. Please carefully review VFRIS BFE data (355', 354') against VGIN LIDAR data.
Sec. 30.3.13- Encroachment standards; determining impact on base Flood elevation.
Any use, structure or other development authorized by section 30.3.11 shall be subject to the following:
A. Within the floodwayin ZoneA1-30 orAE. The following shall apply within the regulatory flootlway of any 1-3oor AE:
1. Encroachmentprohibited unless owner demonstrates no increase in water surface elevation ofth ase flood.

I recommend this plat for approval with the following conditions,
Submit 3 copies of the utility plan and water/sewer data sheets to ACSA for review and approval.
A RWSA sewer capacity certification will be required.
RWSA will need to review and approve the sewer connection to the RWSA manhole.
ACSA will need to review the available sewer capacity along the Dunbra trunk sewer to confirm there is adequate capacity.
Provide the proposed sewer flows that will be entering the existing ACSA owned sewer main for review.

SUB2020-223
Mr. Langille:
As requested, I've reviewed the subject plan, dated 12n120, the Albemarle County GIS
database, as well as VDH records on file. It appears there are no existing onsite septic
systems or wells associated with this parcel, and all new construction will be connected
to public sewer & water systems. Therefore, I have no concerns or objections to the
preliminary plat.
If there are any questions or concerns, please give me a call, 434-972-4306.
Sincerely,
Alan Mazurowski
