The Planner for the Planning Services Division of the Albemarle County Department Community Development will
recommend approve the plan referred to above when the following items 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.) [Each comment is preceded by the applicable reference to the
Albemarle County Code.]
1. [32.5.6] Dam break inundation zone. Pursuant to Virginia Code § 10.1-606 3, DCR has determined that Phase twill
change the spillway design flood standards of the impounding structure. The County cannot approve this application
until the requirements of Virginia Code§ 15.2-22431 are met as outlined in the letter dated February 10, 2021.
a. Engineering study. If the Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation determines that a plan of
development proposed by a subdivider would change the spillway design flood standards of an impounding
structure pursuant to Virginia Code § 10.1-606.3, the subdivider shall submit an engineering study in
conformance with the Virginia Soil and Water Conservation Board's standards under the Virginia Dam Safety
Act in Virginia Code § 10.1-604etseq. and the Virginia Impounding Structure regulations in4 VAC 50-20. The
engineering study shall be reviewed and acted upon by the Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation
as provided in Virginia Code § 15.2-2243.1.
b. Mapping information. The subdivider shall provide the dam owner, the county, and any other affected localities
with information necessary for the dam ownerto update thedam break inundation zone mapto reflect any new
development within the dam break inundation zone following completion of the development
2. [SP1990-103 Condition #2] Condition #2 of the special use permit that was approved in 1990 requires the crossing
to be made prior to development. Zoning staff is reviewing this condition in relation to this submittal to determine if
the crossing will need to be built. I will pass on any information from zoning once an interpretation of the condition is
made.
3. Sidewalks and street trees should be bonded with the road plans.
4. Sugar maples are known to have shallow roots. It is recommended that another species be selected for the street
trees so that the roots do not lift the sidewalks in the future
5. [32.7.9.5] The required number of street trees are not being provided. Provide the required number of trees within
lots in a landscape easement where conflict with utilities exists in planting strip, see below.
