RE: SUB2020-00201 OLD TRAIL BLOCK 32 2 LOT SUBDIVISION LOT 64, LOT 65-70
BLA, LOT 66 CONSOLIDATION
Dear Mr. Reitelbach,
Below is our response to the Counties comments for the Old Trail Block 32 2-Lot Subdivision of
lot 64, Boundary line adjustment of lots 65-70, and lot consolidation of lot 66. Please let me
know if you have any questions or additional comments regarding this plat.
1. [14-302(A)3; 14-303(E)1 Revise the label of Bishopgate Place on sheet V3 to state that it is a
"V/W Private Street," instead of using the term "right-of-way."
Addressed.
2. [14-302(B)11 Provide the date of the last revision of the plat on future submittals of this plat.
Addressed.
3. [14-302(B)51 The Zoning District note on the cover sheet needs to be revised with the following
information:
a. The only overlay district that applies to these parcels is the Entrance Corridor. The other ones that
are listed need to be removed. Addressed.
b. It doesn't appear that any part of the subject lots is a part of the RA zoning district. It appears that
all of these parcels are zoned NMD. Remove the RA zoning designation from the note. Addressed.
c. There is a typo in the setback note misspelling "rear." Addressed.
d. Add an additional note under the zoning section that states these lots are subject to SE202100005,
which was approved on March 23, 2021. Include the conditions of approval as well — for the private
street, the sidewalk modification, and the planting strip modification. Addressed.
4. [14-302(B)91 Revise the Flood Hazard Overlay District note on the cover sheet, as it does not
appear that any of these lots lie within the flood hazard overlay. Addressed.
999 Second Street SE. Charlottesville. VA 22902. www.Roudabush.com 434.977.0205
5. [14-302(B)101 Include the following three conditions under the note on the plat about the stream
buffer special exception that was approved in 2019, as these conditions are a part of that approval:
1. STREAM BUFFER MITIGATION SHALL BE PROVIDED AT A 2:1 RATIO IN ACCORDANCE WITH
A BUFFER MITIGATION PLAN FOR OLD TRAIL VILLAGE ZMA2015-001, AS APPROVED BY THE
COUNTY ENGINEER.
2. DISTURBANCE TO THE BUFFER SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE AREAS DEPICTED ON PAGES 1-4
OF THE EXHIBIT PREPARED BY ROUDABUSH, GALE & ASSOCIATES, INC., ENTITLED "WPO
STREAM BUFFER IMPACT EXHIBIT BLOCKS 19, 24-25, 3243" DATED JANUARY 23, 2018, WITH
A REVISION DATE OF DECEMBER 6, 2018.
3. MODIFICATION OF THE "OPEN GREEN SPACE" SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE AREAS DEPICTED
ON PAGES 1-4 OF THE EXHIBIT PREPARED BY ROUDABUSH, GALE & ASSOCIATES, INC.,
ENTITLED "WPO STREAM BUFFER IMPACT EXHIBIT BLOCKS 19, 24.25, 32-43" DATED
JANUARY 23, 2018, WITH A REVISION DATE OF DECEMBER 6, 2018.
Addressed.
6. [14-303(A)l The statement of consent to division needs to include the identification of lots 64 and
66-70 in the plat title, after "... following described land... " Addressed.
7. [14-303(N)l Provide the following note on the cover sheet of the plat: "The streets in this
subdivision may not meet the standards for acceptance into the secondary system of state highways
and will not be maintained by the Virginia Department of Transportation or the County of
Albemarle." Addressed. See new note 16.
8. [14-302(A)(4) and 14-3171 An instrument/maintenance agreement evidencing maintenance of all
improvements and easements that will be owned by the HOA will be needed before approval of the
final plat. The maintenance agreement will need to specifically mention who is responsible for
maintenance of improvements. The Old Trail Community Association, Inc. (if this is the correct
organization maintaining the private improvements), will need to sign the maintenance agreement,
and this will need to be reviewed and approved by the County Attorney and recorded with the
County Clerk at the same time as the final plat.
To satisfy this requirement, it appears that an amendment to the Supplemental Declaration of
Covenants and Restrictions that was approved with the Block 32 final plat (SUB2019-00137) would
suffice. This document is needed to ensure the Old Trail HOA is responsible for the maintenance of
the improvements in the private street right-of-way — the street itself and the sidewalk and planting
strip on the side where lots 64 and 65 are located.
Noted. Revised/updated agreements will be submitted as necessary.
