No Objection to subdivision plat, however, need to consider at site plan phase of project the following: 1. The road right of way widths indicated on the plat appear appropriate to accommodate emergency vehicle access, which requires 20 ft, unobstructed travelway (face of curb to face of curb or edge of pavement to edge of pavement according to design), or if buildings are taller than 30 ft 26 It travelway to accommodate aerial apparatus however, does not provide adequate width to accommodate on street parking. 2.

For sections of private access easement along Landon Lane (that include perpendicular parking) and along Lois Lane (that include perpendicular parking) where width is non -variable, label access easement width (60' private access easement, for example).

[ eliminate blue diagonal access easement shading on TMP #46B4-7B ] (Rev. 1) Persists. Comment revised. 2/25/21, Engineering and RGA discussed access that may appear to exist for private vehicles to transit directly between TMP 46B4-7B and Landon Lane. This comment clarifies possible misunderstanding: Plat must make explicitly clear that no private access exists via emergency access. Only public emergency fire/rescue vehicles may transit directly between TMP 46B4-7B and Landon Lane. At this point, emergency access is controlled via bollards /keyed access. This access point is closed to residents and all others. No linework or Notes on subdivision plat clarify this limiting circumstance. Engineering revises comment to request Applicant place Note on plat (label insufficient) that reads: `Direct private access via bollard -controlled emergency access between TMP 46B4-7B and Landon Lane does not exist. Access is discontinuous for private use at bollards. Right of access is reserved to public (County or Commonwealth of Virginia) emergency or fire -rescue vehicles. Entry to others via emergency access is prohibited.' Applicant is welcome to propose alternative language that effects this meaning, i.e.: Right of private access thru bollard section designed as emergency access to Timberwood Square between TMP 46B4-7B and TMP 46B4-7 (at Landon Lane) is not established by deed or prior -recorded plat. Access at this point is closed to all but local /state emergency vehicles. Private or commercial vehicular access to Landon Lane is by way of Lois Lane, a private street providing connection between Landon Lane, a private street, and Timberwood Boulevard, a public street.

Revise shading to eliminate new private access easement shown to overlap existing 30' access easement on TMP # 46B4-7, which is duplicative and may suggest owners of units at Timberwood Square may use an emergency access as alternate means of accessing the subdivision, they may not. Private (property owner) access via emergency access is not established with this plat, while existing 30' access easement provides sufficient right of entry for emergency secondary access to subdivision. Please see blue diagonal hatching, below, and remove new access wherever shading overlaps existing 30' access easement at bk.-pg 2775-734, (Rev. 1) Revised at item 2, above: request for VI Note (Note 24) to clarify Emergency Access Point.

Revise labels for Landon and Lois Lane that reference private street R/W to reference private access easement. Right-of-way is typically reserved for use with public roads. (Rev. 1) Withdrawn; see item 7. 7.

Where perpendicular on -street parking is provided, widen proposed private access easement on V3 to match easement shown on V2. Replicate V2 private access easement on V3 using dash or hatching, preferably line -type (hatching) that matches V2. Delete V3 variable width private street R/W labels. V2 establishes new variable width private access easement. Please ensure V2-V3 horizontal extents of private access easement match. V2 appears to show full extent of variable width private access easements, including perpendicular parking on Landon and Lois Lanes. (Rev. 1) Withdrawn. With easement plat at bk.-pg. 5427-181 (V6 at bk.-pg. 5427-193), response to subdivision plat review comment is not possible. V4 10. Compare V4 proposed new 20' ACSA water easement with Approved SDP201800087 deed bk-pg. reference to Ex. 20' ACSA water easement (DB 5427 PG 181). Avoid proposed (duplicate) creation of ACSA (or any) easement with this final subdivision plat, if a proposed easement already exists. Carefully review instrument at deed bk.-pg. 5427-181, and revise final plat accordingly. Review Approved final site Engineering Review Comments Page 4 of 4 plan, SDP201800087 with care, and revise final plat to match. (Rev. 1) Partially addressed. Engineering defers to ACSA, but dimensionless depth of New 10' ACSA Water Easement (Typ.) provides no clear guidance to future lot owners. Engineering recommends dimension depth of ACSA easement into lots. 11. Similarly, compare V4 new 20' ACSA sewer easement with SDP201800087 sheet 5 ref to existing 20' ACSA sanitary sewer easement (DB 5427 PG 181). Only non -existing easements need be proposed with SUB202100005, Timberwood Square final plat. (Rev. 1) Addressed. 12. Final subdivision plat should identify all existing easements: sight line, access, landscape, ACSA, private /public drainage, SWM facility, etc. accurately, with care. Approved SDP201800087 is reliable reference, which itself makes reference to multiple existing easements recorded at multiple locations, for example: BK-PG 5427-181, 5230-298 (plat), 5230-291 (deed), and elsewhere. (Rev. 1) Addressed. 13. V5: Revise new 20' drainage easement labels to read new 20' riu vate drainage easements, consistent with SDP201800087, sheet 9, 10. (Rev. 1) NA. No new public /private drainage proposed with subdivision plat. Multiple drainage /SWM easements are recorded, no new drainage or SWM-related easements are proposed with this final subdivision plat.
