Re: Crozet Elementary School Addition, Renovation and Site Improvements
Dear Mr. Letteri:
Enclosed is a copy of the construction plan approval letter dated March 31, 2021. A
copy of the approved plan shall be on the job site throughout construction and shall be
modified by the contractor to show as -built conditions. It is the contractor's responsibility to
provide this information to you and your consultant for use in developing the final as -built
plan, which shall be submitted in the format of one paper copy and one PDF copy.
A preconstruction conference is required prior to the start of construction. I can be
reached at (434) 977-4511 Ext. 113 to schedule the meeting. The preconstruction
conference will help to ensure project coordination, clarify Albemarle County Service
Authority (ACSA) requirements pertaining to construction, and answer any questions you
may have. It will be required to record the ACSA deed of easement and plat for the new
water main alignment, prior to the preconstruction conference. We have also enclosed
copies of our "Utility Inspection Policy," "Letter of Dedication," and "As -Built Guide" for your
information. These documents should be reviewed before the preconstruction conference.
A water construction inspection fee will be invoiced to you at the completion of the
project. It will be based upon actual time of inspection billed at the current hourly rate
established by the Board of Directors of the ACSA.
A plan review fee will be invoiced to you within the next few days. It will be based
upon the actual time of plan review billed at the current hourly rate established by the
Board of Directors of the ACSA. At the end of the project, you will also be invoiced for an
as -built plan review fee. It will be billed in the same manner as the plan review fee.
The ACSA will not set water meters until construction has been completed and
approved for operation. The utility easements shall be reviewed and approved prior to
recordation. Copies of the deed of easement, plat, as -built plan and Letter of Dedication
shall be submitted as soon as possible following installation of the utility systems. Timely
submission of these documents will help you avoid delays in receiving utility service.
Please be advised the Albemarle County Department of Community Development is
instructed to hold the water bond amount at a minimum value of 20% of the original amount
until the dedication of the utility systems is completed.
The ACSA has reviewed the proposed development and has determined that as of
this date there is an adequate supply of water and adequate sewer capacity to serve the
development. Water and sewer connections to the ACSA system are allotted on a first -
come, first -served basis at the time connection fees are paid. The ACSA does not reserve
capacity in its system for a specific project. Approval of water and sewer utilities for this
project does not constitute a guarantee of future service.
The plan approval is valid for a period of 18 months. If construction is not in progress
at the end of the approval period, the approval shall be void.
If you have any questions or if we may be of assistance, please give us a call at (434)
977-4511.
Sincerely,
Richard Nelson
