Senior Planner II
Albemarle County Planning Services (Planner) — Cameron Langille, blangille@albemarle.org — Required changes
prior to initial site plan approval:
1. [32.5.2 (d)] The plan identifies the limits of Preserved Steep Slopes based on Albemarle County GIS. But it
labels some portions of the Preserved Steep Slopes as "Managed Steep Slopes based on field run topo
elevations." Section 18-30.7.4 (b)(1)(h) states that areas of Preserved Steep Slopes may be reclassified to
Managed Steep Slopes as follows: "Slopes less than 25 percent based on new topographic information. Any
use or structure allowed by right or by special use permit in the underlying district, provided that the owner
submits new topographic information that is based on more accurate or better technical data demonstrating, to
the satisfaction of the county engineer, that the slopes are less than 25 percent."
a. Please Seen Engineering comments #2a-2c, and #4a-4i. In order for the Preserved Steep Slopes to be
reclassified and treated as Managed Steep Slopes, the applicant must submit field -run topography
prepared by a licensed engineer, surveyor or landscape architect demonstrating that the lands to be
removed from the district do not contain slopes of 25 percent or greater. The County Engineer must
review and approve of the field run topography. Otherwise, a Zoning Map Amendment must be
approved by the Board of Supervisors in accordance to reclassify the slopes to Managed Steep
Slopes.
Required changes prior to final site plan approval:
2. [32.5.1 (c)] Please label the front setback on the site layout drawings so that it states " 10' front setback."
3. [32.5.1 (c)] Please provide dimensions for the proposed structure.
4. [32.5.2 (a)] Revise the Zoning Note on Sheet 1 so that it states "EC" as the abbreviation for the Entrance
Corridor Overlay District. It is currently abbreviated as "ARB."
a. Please clarify the zoning note so that it states that portions of the property are within the Managed and
Preserved Steep Slopes Overlay District.
5. [32.5.2 (b)] Please clarify the proposed use note on Sheet 1. Per LOD202000014, the primary use of this site
will be "Manufacturing/processing/assembly/fabrication/recycling."
a. LOD202000014 also states that "Subordinate retail for any use permitted by -right are also permitted
by -right in the LI district, provided that the use does not exceed 25% of the gross floor area of the
industrial use." Please clarify the proposed 4,662 sq. ft. of space open to the public. Is this intended
to be subordinate retail use associated with the primary use?
6. [32.5.2 (d)] Please provide spot elevations where identified by the attached Engineering comments.
7. [32.5.2(e)] Identify the types and sizes of the existing landscape features as described in section 32.7.9.4(c).

wooded areas are composed of evergreen, deciduous or a mix of types of trees.
9. [32.5.2 (h)] Please see Engineering comment # 1. Revise effective date of FEMA floodplain panel as specified
by Engineering.
10. [32.5.2 (i)] Please provide one-way signage/striping along all Trailways measuring less than 20' in width.
See Engineering comments for further information.
11. [32.5.2 (k)] Please update labels for all proposed water, sewer, drainage, and stormwater easements on the
final site plan and state the easement type and width.
a. Prior to final site plan approval, an Easement Plat Application must be submitted, reviewed,
approved, and recorded. Once recorded, the final site plan will need to be updated so that all new
easement labels indicate the recorded instrument number of the plat (deed book and page).
12. [32.5.2 0)] Please show and label all existing water, sewer, and drainage easement on the property. State the
easement type (e.g. ACSA water easement), the easement dimensions, and the recorded instrument (deed
book/page) for each existing easement in the easement labels.
13. [32.5.2 (1)] Please show and label all existing utility easements on the property. State the easement type,
dimensions, and the recorded instrument (deed book/page) for each existing easement in the easement labels.
14. [32.5.2 (n)] There are several rows of parking spaces that are dimensioned as 9' width x 16' length along 24'
wide travel ways. Section 18-4.12.16 (c)(6) allows for the minimum length requirement to be reduced by up
to 2' provided that there is adequate space for a 2' unobstructed overhang at the end of these spaces. The
plans do not identify whether there is adequate space for the 2' overhang. Please provide additional
information on the areas in front of these spaces, otherwise, revise the dimensions so that each space is a
minimum of 18' in length.
15. [32.5.2 (n)] Prior to final site plan approval, please identify the screening measures around the proposed
dumpster. Per Section 18-4.12.19, dumpsters shall be screened in accordance with Section 32.7.9 and 30.7.6.

Engineering Review Comments
Page 4 of 5
7. Sheet 8
a. Revise Water Quantity Summary Narrative to reference stormwater conveyance downstream of
underground detention /dry detention basin. Although mapped floodplain does indicate limits of
analysis for flood control [9VAC25-870-66.C.3.c.], at mapped floodplain on this site there is a
pronounced 4' vertical drop, 360' to 356'. MS-19 requires measures to limit erosion impact/s to
adjacent /offsite parcel/s (City of Charlottesville, in this instance).
b. 9VAC25-840-40.19.a. applies to both underground detention and dry detention basin `A'.
Excerpt:
19. Properties and waterways downstream from development sites shall be protected from sediment
deposition, erosion and damage due to increases in volume, velocity and peak flow rate of stormwater runoff
for the stated frequency storm of 24-hour duration in accordance with the following standards and criteria.
Stream restoration and relocation projects that incorporate natural channel design concepts are not man-
made channels and shall be exempt from any flow rate capacity and velocity requirements for natural or man-
made channels:
a. Concentrated stormwater runoff leaving a development site shall be discharged directly into an
adequate natural or man-made receiving channel, pipe or storm sewer system. For those sites where
runoff is discharged into a pipe or pipe system, downstream stability analyses at the outfall of the pipe or
pipe system shall be performed.
SWM analysis is thoughtful. Erosion analysis prompts request for adequate man-made receiving
channel to such point erosion effects abate. Dry detention basin `A' is provided with a riprap
outfall, but not a receiving channel. Concentrated stormwater runoff leaving a development site
shall be discharged directly into an adequate natural or man-made receiving channel, pipe or storm
sewer systm. Adequacy of all channels and pipes shall be verified in the following manner:
b. Adequacy of all channels and pipes shall be verified in the following manner:
(1) The applicant shall demonstrate that the total drainage area to the point of analysis within the channel
is 100 times greater than the contributing drainage area of the project in question; or
(2) (a) Natural channels shall be analyzed by the use of a two-year storm to verify that stormwater will not
overtop channel banks nor cause erosion of channel bed or banks;
(b) All previously c tmcte an -made channels shall be analyzed by the use of a 10-year storm to verify
that stomwater will no rtop i rts banks and by the use of a two-year storm to demonstrate that
stormwater will not c e e ion of channel bed or banks; and
(c) Pip nd storm sewer systems shall be analyzed by the use of a 10-year storm to verify that
sto water 'It be contained within the pipe or system.
Emphasis of 9VAC25-840-40 (Minimum standards) differs from 9VAC25-870-66 (Water
quantity): requirements Aimits of analysis differ slightly. Note: Horizontal limit of floodplain are
not point of comparison for b(l), above. Rather, Moore's Creek is. b(2)(a) is NA [dry detention
basin /UG detention do not discharge to natural channels, but to slopes], b.(2)(b),(c) are NA.
c. Per 9VAC25-840-40.19.g., provide a receiving channel. ISP design proposes riprap outfall for the
detention system, not a receiving channel. Project receiving channel must discharge to an existing
natural channel, stream, or such point that channel characteristics yield to relatively flat terrain:
g. Outfall from a detention facility shall be discharged to a receiving channel, and energy dissipators shall
be placed at the outfall of all detention facilities as necessary to provide a stabilized transition from the
facility to the receiving channel.
d. Note: WP02021-00002 VSMP plan has been submitted; review is pending.
e. Albemarle avoids request for revisions not supported by Code /ordinance. Note: Immediately N of
development property (TMP # 07700-00-00-00900), 3/22/19 inspection of flume across preserved
steep slopes to streambank at Moore's Creek illustrates erosion even within floodplain [photo,
Alb. County, below]. MS-19 supports request for man-made channel sized to convey the 10-yr
event between contour elev. 360' to 354', designed to resist erosive velocity (Vel2-y,).

Review # 1
Dear Mr. Langille:
The Department of Transportation, Charlottesville Residency Transportation and Land Use
Section, has reviewed the above referenced plan as submitted by Collins Engineering, dated 4
January 2021, and offers the following comments:
1. Provide anticipated traffic estimates for this development.
2. Identify the design vehicle and include traffic count estimates specifically for this
vehicle.
3. What is the circulation plan for the design vehicle? Will trucks be permitted to use the
eastern entrance?
4. Will the builder gain access to the site through the proposed permanent entrance, or
through the existing construction entrance currently used by Lighthouse Land LLC (the
developer across the street)? Use of this construction entrance will require a new permit.
5. Note that the final plan must show conformance with the VDOT Road Design Manual
Appendices 13(1) and F, as well as any other applicable standards, regulations or other
requirements.
Please provide a digital copy in PDF format of the revised plan along with a comment response
letter. If further information is desired, please contact Doug McAvoy Jr. at (540) 718-6113.

Cameron,
While DCR does not recommend development within dam break inundation zones, further development within this
particular DBIZ would not affect the hazard classification or required spillway capacity for Ragged Mountain Dam as it is
already rated as High, as you've noted, which is the highest hazard rating.
For future reference this will be true for all High hazard dams; however, some parcels may be within more than one
DBIZ, with the other dam(s) being Low or Significant, so it's always worth looking into further even if the obvious dam is
a High hazard. This parcel does only appear to be within the Ragged Mountain DBIZ.

Hi Justin,
I am the lead reviewer on an initial site plan application for a parcel that is located within the Ragged Mountain DBIZ.
The parcel is TMP 07700-00-00-008BO located on Avon Court, which is a street on the west side of Avon St. Extended.
I've attached a PDF of the site plan documents. The project is creating a new 79,000 sq. ft. building to be used for
industrial warehousing. The project is also proposing vehicular travel ways and parking areas around the building. It
appears that the building and other hardscape improvements will be located within the limits of the DBIZ. According to
my records, the Ragged Mountain Dam is owned by RWSA and its hazard class is "High."
Can you take a look at this and let me know if DCR has any comments or objections to approving this initial site plan?
Let me know if you have any questions or need anything else from me. Thanks,
Cameron

Avon Court Industrial Building Comments

Cameron,
RWSA has reviewed the Avon Court Industrial Building Initial Site Plans dated 1/4/21 and has the following comments.
Sheet C-3:
RWSA would like to request access easements along the proposed connection sewer connection along the
northwest side of the peninsula and potentially others. We would like to do a site visit to look for the best access
easement locations. In the picture below circled in red, on the opposite side of the creek, we need access for
previous sewer repairs and would like an access easement there.
The MH being connected to is about 10' deep. Please indicate whether you plan to propose a drop connection
so we can include those notes on the final site plan.
