If that is the case, read no further. 1. Sheet RP-1 a. Revise plan title to `SUB202100044 Road Plan for Drillers Lane, Amendment to SUB201700197. b. Please copy relevant text from Private Street Authorization Request d. February 16, 2021, to RP-1 as Notes that explain primary purpose of this Road Plan submittal, which is to vacate recorded public RW (SUB202100045) and authorize a private street. i. Note 1: This Road Plan amends Approved SUB201700197. ii. Note 2: A 2-lot subdivision shown on SLJB201700197 is recorded at circuit court deed bk.-pg. 5166-651 /plat at 658. iii. Please do not state that the 2-lot subdivision (plat) has been recorded in DB 5175-566, as this is an incorrect reference to recorded plat location. iv. Note 3: `Drillers Lane was approved as a public street for SUB2017-197, and this Road Plan proposes a private street in place of existing public right-of-way along Drillers Lane. Ex. public RW is vacated by separate Application (SUB202100045).' v. Please do not state that SUB2017-00197 was a two -lot subdivision of TMP 03100-00-00- 021A0 on RP Current reviewer has identified significant irregularities with early reviews of SUB2017-00197. Any suggestion that a road plan approves a two -lot subdivision (not the case then), should not persist now. SUB201800040, a plat by Meridian Planning group d. 3/19/19, approved 5/16/19, titled `Plat showing Parcel Vacation, Boundary Line Adjustment, 2-Lot Subdivision, Right -of -Way Dedication & SWM Facility Easements for TMP 03 100-00-00-0 10A0, TMP 03100-00-00-01900, TMP 03100-00-00-019A0, TMP 03100-00-00-021AO, TMP 03100-00-00-021130, THE 417, LLC Properties' is legal instrument that creates 2-lot subdivision (bk.-pg. 5166-651). Subdivision plat exhibit shown on approved SLTB201700197 and current road plan submittal, RP5 does not belong on a road plan, nor does an approved road plan ever approve a 2-lot subdivision. vi. Note 4: Drillers Lane was intended to provide public access to adjacent parcels, TMP 03100-00-00-02 1 BO and TMP 03100-00-00-02 1 CO, so that it would meet the VDOT requirement of a minimum of three users prior to acceptance into the public road system. Engineering Review Comments Page 2 of 5 vii. Note 5: It has been determined that DEQ will not allow wells to be installed on TMP 03100-00-00-021 BO and TMP 03100-00-00-021 CO so they must remain as vacant parcels. viii. Note 6: The only parcels that will ever use Drillers Lane are TMP 03100-00-00-021A2 and TMP 03100-00-00-021A3 and VDOT will not accept it into the public road system. c. Private Street Authorization Request (2/16/21 letter) for Drillers Lane states, in paragraph one, that `A digital copy of the approved road plans have been submitted.' This appears to be the case, digital copy of approved road plan may be identical with copy of approved road plan (SUB201700197) submitted for review as SUB202100044. d. Also, see item 7.f: `If no design revisions are proposed other than easements established or RW vacated by separate easement plat application, SUB202100045 then this Application may (and should) be withdrawn at Applicant request.' e. Additional, RP-1: please: i. Include Narrative that identifies design departure/s from Approved SUB201700197 proposed with current RP, SUB202100044. ii. If Approved SUB201700197 persists as basis of proposed road plan revisions, consider comments that follow, including: 1. Include cloud revisions throughout SUB201700197 to indicate proposed change from approved design. 2. Eliminate `New private road' labels that identify site access to Lot 2. 3. Although a New 40' Private Access Easement' is established with plat at DB 5466 PG 651 (plat at 658), subsequent construction of a site access partially outside recorded access easement, terminating in 8,000 SF 1-story building parking lotnegates ability of recorded 40' wide private access easement to serve a (future) private road at this location. 4. If current reviewer appears unaware of Private Street Authorization request for the site access to Lot 2 (labelled `New Private Road'), please direct reviewer to approval date of private street authorization for Lot 2 site access, and any supportive information. 5. This Road Plan, SUB202100044, cannot approve site access to Lot 2 as a private street. 6. If Applicant feels SUB201700197 approval grants private street authorization to Lot 2 site access, please notify reviewer. Engineering will coordinate a response with Planning. f. Please eliminate all reference to revision dates, as this appears to be a new road plan submittal, that amends SUB201700197. As things stand, plan title, multiple revision dates, and lack of explicative text are confusing. Reviewers must piece together what this application proposes. g. Similarly, Road Plan Notes appear to be relics from SUB201700197. Check for accuracy /relevance. If not needed for current road plan submittal, remove notes. For example: delete ex. Road Plan Note 2, since this road plan and associated Vacation of Easement plat do not propose 40' public RW, but propose to vacate public RW. Related, a Private Street Authorization request is pending. 2. Sheet RP-2 a. Add labels that clarify primary intent of this Road Plan is to vacate public R/W and establish a (private) access easement over Drillers Lane from intersection of Reas Ford Road to the proposed end of (New) private street. b. Entrance dimensions beyond entrance radii and narrowest width for Lot 1 are not required and will not be reviewed with Drillers Lane Road Plan. 3. Sheet RP-3 a. Delete reference to End State Maintenance. This is not a public road. There will be no state maintenance. b. Delete reference to (New Portion) 40' Public RIW, same reason. Instead, revise this label to read `Private street, 40' Access Easement'. Engineering Review Comments Page 3 of 5 c. Remove reference to New 1-Story building, since it exists and is not new. Please see Pictometry 2 d. satellite image d. 6/26/2020, below. NE of highlight line (image, below), please delete reference label to New Private Road. item l.e.ii.3-6. Also, see e. In image, above, delete reference to New if improvements exist. Also, item 3.h. below. f. Similar to subdivision plat exhibit (RP-5), please revise labels for New SWM-1 to clarify that this is an existing SWM facility. Even better, eliminate detailed SWM facility design information from the Road Plan --details shown with SUB201700197, which includes this information. g. Although SDP201800076, C-203 includes label indicating Lot 2 site access is a `New Private Road' with 40' Private Easement, the access built departs from platted access easement (SUB201800040, sheet 2 of 3). Please remove reference label along centerline of Lot 2 site access. It cannot, at this juncture, be reviewed as a private street. This access is not a private street; rather, it is a constructed site access that departs from recorded (platted) New 40' private access easement. This Road Plan does not approve this existing site access as a private street. Further, existing site access does not conform to private street standards, without demolition. RP- 4 appears to indicate a spiral curve which ends in a parking lot. h. Avoid any reference to new if a feature or improvement exists (8,000 SF 1-story building, for example). i. Profile is confusing since paved road stationing ends prior to station 21+00 in plan view, but continues beyond station 21+50 in profile. Revise profile, consistent with plan view. 4. Sheet RP-4 a. Eliminate any reference to `New Private Road' that departs Drillers Lane at — station 19+70. b. Additional comments, elsewhere, apply to RP-41 for example: Drillers Lane between Reas Ford Road and Lot 2 site access is labeled 40' Public R/W. By convention, since 40' private access easement is proposed to replace existing public R/W over the entirety of Drillers Lane, please revise label to read `proposed New 40' private access easement. Ref. RP-1 Road Plan notes.' c. Storm pipe (plan /profile): Revise line -type Aine weight and labels as needed to clearly indicate if storm pipe is built, proposed (to be revised), or is new. Cloud any revisions that indicate proposed change to approved SUB201700197 Road plan drainage design. d. Remove New SWM-1 details, though these details appeared with approved SUB201700197. Instead, show existing contours (light gray line -weight) and provide `Existing SWM facility' label similar to `Existing Stormwater Basin' label for SWM east of Lot 2 parking lot. Engineering Review Comments Page 4 of 5 5. Sheet RP-5 a. Add SUB201800040 descriptor to Subdivision Plat inset, upper half of plan sheet. Provide deed bk.-pg. reference to recorded plat (bk-pg. 5166-651 /plat at p. 658). b. Alternatively, remove RP-5 Subdivision plat exhibit, altogether. c. Removal and demolition of certain features (curb /gutter /pavement) at entrance to Shop & Garage Building, Lot 1, is complete. Do not show as proposed. d. Similarly, sawcut and removal 1' width of existing pavement near intersection of Drillers Lane and Reas Ford Road is not proposed with SUB202100044. Do not show as proposed. 6. Sheet RP-6 a. Label streets. Orientation is ambiguous. b. Additional comments are possible. Summary: a. Purpose of SUB202100044 relative to Approved SUB201700197 is unclear, please clarify. b. Access to Lot 2 i. Departs from recorded (Ex.) 40' Private Access easement, this is problematic. ii. Is not a private street, and was not authorized as such with SUB201700197. iii. Is a site access, and will not be accepted as a private street by Albemarle County. iv. Is not subject to further ROAD Plan review under SUB202100044, and since approved with SDP201800076, 5/30/19, sheet C-202, this site access is not topic of further review, unless proposed to be revised. v. Lot 2 site access as -built condition appears to conform to approved SDP201800076. c. WPO SWM facility detailed information should not be included with SUB202100044. d. Subdivision plat exhibit should be removed from this (any) road plan. e. Carefully review SUB202100044 for accurate labels /contours, please revise, add or delete to ensure SUB202100044 is consistent with as -built (existing) conditions, and clearly reflects any proposed change to approved SUB201700197. To this end, please cloud revisions. f. If no desigtr revisions are proposed other than easements established or RW vacated by separate easement plat application, SUB202100045 then this Application may (and should) be withdrawn at Applicant request.
