Memorandum
To: Rob Cummings
Date: March 25, 2021
Subject: SDP202100010 Old Trail Block 32, Lots 34-40 Pocket Park - Initial Site Plan
The County of Albemarle Planning Division will recommend approval of the plan referenced above once the following
comments 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.):
2. [32.5.2(a), ZMA2015-1 COD] On the final site plan provide a chart tracking how many units are already approved in Block
32. The maximum dwelling unit count for this block is 417 units. This will determine if the additional units are permitted.
3. [ZMA2015-1_COD] Garage and Driveway Construction Detail. The setbacks are incorrectly depicted for these lots. The
lots shall front on the pocket park, as they are amenity -oriented lots, and the private street shall be the rear of the lots.
Revise the site plan to depict the correct setbacks and relocate the proposed buildings to meet the front setback.
4. [ZMA2015-1_COD] Garage and Driveway Construction Detail. Each lot shall have a minimum of two (2) off street
parking spaces. Asphalt parking pads will be built with a minimum depth of 18 feet from the rear property lines adjacent to
the private road. Asphalt parking pads will be built with a minimum width of 18 feet to accommodate the required two
spaces. Also, there shall be a 3-foot minimum building separation from the parking pad to the building. Revise the final
site plan to address these requirements.
5. [ZMA2015-1_COD] Garage and Driveway Construction Detail. On the final site plan provide the grade of each driveway.
Driveway grades must be 8% or flatter.
6. [32.5.1(c), 4.12.16(b)] Design of Spaces. All parking spaces shall be designed so that no part of any vehicle will extend
over any lot line, right-of-way line, sidewalk, walkway, and driveway or aisle space. Revise the plan to omit the one (1)
foot driveway easements across the property lines, as this is not permitted. The width of the lots and the driveways shall be
revised to accommodate the required parking. Each parking space shall be a minimum of 9-foot-wide x 18-foot-long. Each
lot shall have a minimum of two (2) off street parking spaces.
7. [32.5.1(c), 32.5.2(b), 4.12, 4.12.8(a), 4.12.91 Alternatives available to provide minimum number ofparking spaces. The
three (3) required guest parking spaces are not provided. Per conversations with the applicant they are utilizing on -street
parking to meet the minimum number of required parking spaces. The required two (2) parking spaces per lot cannot be
located on the street but the guest parking spaces can. The approved road plan (SUB2018-164) already accounts for 88 on -
street parking spaces before the addition of these 3 new lots/units. Ensure additional parking spaces are available on this
road to meet the minimum required guest parking space requirement for these additional units.
On the cover sheet provide a note to this effect. Also, on the final site plan depict, label, and dimension the on -street
parking spaces and label they are for guests. Prior to final site plan approval these spaces shall be reviewed and approved
by Planning, Engineering, VDOT, and Fire Rescue. These spaces were not depicted nor labeled on the initial site plan, thus
these agencies have not reviewed nor considered the appropriateness or viability of these spaces on this road.
8. [32.5.2(b), 4.121 On the cover sheet revise the parking notes #17 and #18 to specifically relate to these 10 proposed units.
If you would like to keep the parking data you have provided for the entire development that is permitted, however, it
should be clearly noted and blocked off that these notes and the data in them are for the overall development. New parking
notes shall be provided specifically related to these 10 proposed units.
9. [32.5.2(b), 4.121 On the final site plan provide a revised parking schedule of parking required and the amount provided
specific to these 10 units.
10. [ZMA2015-1_Proffer #2, SUB2019-1371 Affordable Housing Units. The 7 original lots (Lots 34-40) in this section are
designated on the final subdivision plat as required affordable housing units. On the final site plan label 7 of these units
affordable housing units. Also, provide a note on the cover sheet that labels which of the 7 lots are affordable housing
units.
11. [ZMA2015-1 - COD] Provide a note on the cover sheet that state the minimum lot size shall be 1,000 SF for SFA units.
12. IZMA2015-11 Clarify the types of housing units proposed for the lots, as there are different requirements for different types
of units. I believe the proposed units are attached single-family (townhouse) units. On the cover sheet of the final site plan
provide a note to this effect.
13. [32.5.2(n)] Label and dimension all improvements depicted on the final site plan to include, driveways, the townhomes, all
sidewalks, and all other improvements.
14. [32.5.1(c), 32.5.2(a)] On the final site plan dimension the property boundaries and the new lot lines.
15. [32.5.1(c)] On the final site plan dimension the proposed structures and driveways.
16. [32.5.2(a)] On the final site plan provide the names of the owners, zoning district, tax map and parcel numbers and present
uses of abutting parcels.
17. [32.5.2(e)] Landscape Features. On the final site plan provide the existing landscape features as described in section
32.7.9.4(c).
18. [Comment] Remove the phase lines from Bicknell Street.
19. [32.5.2(n)] On the final site plan label all the proposed paving material types for all sidewalks, parking areas, and driveways.
20. [32.5.2(u)(iii), ZMA2015-1_COD] On the final site plan provide building elevations for all new or modified structures.
21. [32.7.2.11 Vehicular Access to Site. Each entrance onto any public street shall be designed and constructed as required by the
standards of the Virginia Department of Transportation. VDOT approval of the entrance to the site shall be required prior to
final site plan approval.
22. [32.8.21 A WPO plan shall be approved prior to final site plan approval.
23. [32.6] The final site plan shall meeting all the requirements of section 32.6 of Chapter 18 of the Code.
24. [Comment] The final site plan shall not be approved until all SRC reviewers have approved the plan. Their comments
attached.
25. [SUB2018-164] The approved road plan contains required street tree landscaping in the pocket park. To determine if there
is a conflict\ with the extended water line and the planting, the final site plan shall depict this planting (see below). It
appears it will cause a conflict and the tree shall be relocated out of the waterline easement. On the final site plan relocate
the single tree.

26. [Comment] Contrary to our previous discussions there is not an approved initial site plan nor an approved final site plan
for this specific section of townhomes. Rather there is an approved final subdivision plat (SU132019-137) and an approved
road plan (SUB2018-164).
27. [SRC Public Comment] Staff has received and forwarded to the applicant the adjacent neighbors' concerns about the
required parking for these units. Additionally, these residents are opposed to the additional units being added to this area.

Fire Rescue Requested Changes
1) Please provide and indicate on plans the ISO needed fire flow for the structures and the ACSA available fire flow test
a) Available fire flow needs to meet or exceed the ISO required fire flow
2) Threads on (dire hydrants and fire department connections must be C & O, please indicate this on plans
3) Page 1 of plans, under ACSA water and sewer general notes - talks of a fire sprinkler system:
a) Provide location(s) of Fire Department Connection
b) Provide fire hydrant within 100 ft of fire department connection
4) Provide hydrants as mandated by the required fire flow (ex. fire flow required less than 1750 gpm, then average spacing is
500 feet and spaced so that the maximum distance from any point on the road frontage is no more than 250 feet - as the
required fire flow increases, the spacing decreases in distance)
5) The minimum acceptable turning radius is 25 feet, please indicate turning radius on plans
6) Each building requires a fire service access road that provides access to each building so that from the fire apparatus on the
road provides access to all sides of the ground level within 150 feet of the apparatus, which these plans appear to do. This
appartus access road must provide a minimum, unobstructed travel way of 26 feet due to building height over 30 ft. The road
width measurement is either face of curb to face of curb or edge of pavement to edge of pavement with the minimum and no
parking space can encroach on the travelway (example. - with no parking on the street, the road width must be 26 feet. If you
add parking on the street, the road width increases by the width of the nparking spaces).
7) Fire apparatus access road surface must be able to support the weight of 80,000 lb fire appartus in all weather
8) No overhead obstructions below the height of 13 ft 6 inches on fire apparatus access roads
