Intended use or justification for request:
Public park development that will provide access to the South Fork Rivanna River. Project program includes a park entrance,
parking area, and a boat slide launch.
Comments/Attachments:
This project will replace the existing, rustic boat slide launch under the Rt. 29 bridge. It also includes a new reconfigured
park entrance on Rio Mills Road, a small parking area located outside of the floodway, a short boat launch access drive
with wooden stair, and a boat slide launch. It's intended for the entrance to be asphalt and the parking area and access
drives to be compacted gravel. Minor grading will result in an overall cut condition within the floodplain. Excess material will
be removed from the site.

Final Site Plan Submission
434.882.3420
Dear Ms. Fort,
ANHOLDLA.COM
Please see the attached digital copies of the Final Site Plan. The plans have been
revised to address your Initial Site Plan review comments from February 4, 2020.
1. General Comment: Applicant should be aware that the South Fork Rivanna Dam
is located less than a half mile upstream of the proposed boat launch. RWSA
may at times need to release water from the dam, so the boat ramp and other
facilities should be designed with that in mind applicant shall not hold RWSA
responsible for any damage incurred from periodic water level rises.
RESPONSE: Acknowledged.
2. General Comment: Applicant should install signage warning park visitors of the
upstream dam. RWSA can assist with the design and wording of the warning
signs, but the signs should be furnished by the applicant.
RESPONSE: A warning sign will be installed by County Parks.
1. Sheet C-3 Comment: RWSA has an existing water line on the east side of
Seminole Trail that is accessed from the Brook Hill Park property by travelling
under the bridge. In order to access this water line for utility locating and
maintenance purposes, RWSA has a lock on the existing gate that is flagged for
removal on this sheet. If at any point a new gate is to be installed, RWSA will
need its own lock on the gate to maintain access.
RESPONSE: Please note the project survey did not identify an easement for
the water line access. County Parks will coordinate gate locks as required for
RWSA access.

Historic Preservation
1. Review Comment: Coordination is required with the Historic Preservation
Committee on interpretive signage.
RESPONSE: Acknowledged. In response to a 2/4/2020 email from Tim
Padalino regarding Historic Preservation issues we offer the following
responses:
Signage can be addressed during future phases of Brook Hill River Park and it
is noted in the Site Plan Cover Sheet under General Information. Locations
for signage in future phases could be determined for signage once a property
survey by a licensed surveyor is conducted. We anticipate that Parks & Rec
could coordinate with Albemarle County Historic Preservation Committee on
an interpretive signage effort during these future phases.
VA-DHR identified historic resources locations have been removed from site
context plan and appropriate note has been added indicating that no such
identified historic resources are affected by the proposed phase 1
improvements.
CDD ARB
2. Review Comment: ARB comment on the initial Site Plan are required.
RESPONSE: It's our understanding that ARB did review the Initial Site Plan
submission, however we did not receive any comments.
ACSA
3. Review Comments: Brook Hill River Boat Launch is outside the ACSA
jurisdictional area. There are no comments from ACSA. I would recommend
confirming with RWSA and make sure there are no comments from them in
regards to their neighboring property.
