Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. 1700 Willow Lawn Dr, Ste 200 Richmond, VA 23230 roan.perkins ankimley-horm.corn RE: SDP202100027 WAWA Route 29 and Greenbrier - Initial Site Plan (digital) Mr. Perkins: The Site Review Committee has reviewed the development proposal referenced above. Initial comments for the following divisions of the Department of Community Development and other agencies, as applicable, are attached: Albemarle County Engineering Services (Engineer) Albemarle County Planning Services (Planner) Albemarle County Information Services (E911) Albemarle County Planning Services (Architectural Review Board) Albemarle County Planning Services (Historic Preservation) Albemarle County Department of Fire Rescue Albemarle County Service Authority Virginia Department of Health Virginia Department of Transportation City of Charlottesville Department of Public Utilities Comments reflect information available at the time the development proposal was reviewed, and should not be considered final. However, the Site Review Committee has attempted to identify all issues that will be required to be resolved prior to approval. The Lead Reviewer will either approve with conditions or deny the initial site plan within 15 days of the Site Review Meeting. Please contact me at your earliest convenience if you have questions or require additional information. Sincerely, �4* Mariah Gleason Senior Planner, Community Development mgleasongalbemarle.org Memorandum To: Ryan Perkins, P.E., ryan.perkins(a)kimley-horm.com From: Mariah Gleason, Senior Planner Division: Planning Date: 5/20/2021 Subject: SDP202100027 WAWA Route 29 and Greenbrier - Initial Site Plan (digital) The Planner for the Planning Services Division of the Albemarle County Department Community Development will 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.] Please contact Mariah Gleason at the Department of Community Development at meleason akalbmarle.org 296- 5832 ext. 3097 for further information. COMMENTS THAT MUST BE ADDRESSED WITH THE INITIAL SITE PLAN: 1. [32.5.2(b)] Offsite improvements. The plan is proposing multiple offsite improvements, including a site entrance, parking areas, plantings and sidewalks. Easements and agreements will be needed to allow these improvements prior to final site plan approval. However, written documentation will be needed prior to initial site plan approval to confirm that the owner of the adjacent parcel, TMP 61 W-02-2B, is aware of and agreeable to the proposed improvements. (Note: An email would suffice.) 2. [35.1] Fees. There are outstanding fees associated with the review of this initial site plan that will be needed prior to initial site plan approval. They are: a. After follow-up with the applicant, it was realized that the incorrect application fee was paid when the application was originally submitted to the County. The fee for an "Initial Site Plan following an Approved Preapplication plan" was paid ($752), instead of the fee for an "Initial Site Plan without an Approved Preapplication plan" ($1,290). There is no Approved Preapplication plan for this development. Therefore, the difference in fee, $538.00, is required ($1,290-$752). b. In addition, a fee for preparing and mailing public notices and published notices in conjunction with the application is also required. That fee is $435.00. ADDITIONAL COMMENTS RELATED TO THE SITE PLAN: Albemarle County Planning Services Mariah Gleason, meJeasongalbemarle.org — Requests Changes 1. [Comment] Project number. Now that the initial site plan has been assigned a project number, please include the number — SDP202100027 — in the tide/heading of the Cover Sheet. 2. [32.5.2(b)] Parking schedule. On the Cover Sheet, provide the calculation that was used to determine the number of required parking spaces for this plan. (Note: Per Albemarle County Code, an appropriate scheduled use for this development is "Retail use not otherwise identified" which requires one space per 100 square feet of retail sales area for the first 5,000 square feet and one space per each 200 square feet of retail sales area above 5,000 square feet. Retail sales areas is defined as 80% of the gross floor area.) 3. [32.5.2(n), 4.12.4] Shared parking. The site plan notes that the 20 parking spaces in the small parking area at the rear of the property will be created for the benefit of TMP 61 W-02-2B. Please be aware that, per Sec. 4.12.4(a), County Code does not allow the number of proposed parking spaces to exceed the number of required spaces by more than 20 percent. The current site plan exceeds the number of required spaces by 41.7%. It may be possible to provide the desired parking schedule through a shared parking agreement. Staff recommends following up with the Zoning Division to see if this may be an option. 4. [32.5.2(n), 4.17] Outdoor lighting. Please refer to comments provided by the ARB reviewer below (comments #6-12, specifically) concerning outdoor lighting. 5. [Comment] Landscaping. Please refer to comments provided by City of Charlottesville Department of Public Utilities and ARB, below, regarding landscaping and plantings. 6. [Comment] Grading. Please refer to comments provided by City of Charlottesville Department of Public Utilities regarding proposed grading over existing gas lines. 7. [4.12.18] Loading zone. A loading space is not required for this development, per 4.12.13, since the building is less than 8,OOOsf However, a loading zone is shown on the site plan.

Please be aware, that code section also requires the loading space to be designed in such a way that no part of any vehicle will extend into a driveway or aisle space. Please revise the loading zone shown on the site plan to align with these ordinance requirements. 8. [32.5.2(n)] Fuel stations and pumps. On the Cover Sheet, please edit the "WAWA Information" notes to clearly state the number of fuel stations and pumps being proposed by this project. 9. [32.5.2(q)] Traffic generation.

In addition to the comments provided by Engineering and VDOT reviewers, below, please also show the distance to the centerline of the nearest existing street intersection from the proposed ingress and egress points. 11. [4.12.19] Dumpster pad. The regulations for dumpster pads require the concrete pad to extend at least eight feet beyond the front of the dumpster. Please revise the plan to demonstrate that this minimum design requirement is being met. This could be done with a distance label on the site plan. 12. [32.5.2(n)] Monument signs. Remove all depictions and notes regarding monument signs. Those signs are reviewed through a separate application and permitting process. 13. [32.5.2(a)] Zoning. Include in the zoning notes that this property is subject to special use permit SP1991- 00069 and its conditions. State the conditions of approval in the notes. See reference document attached. 14.

Also please provide a label for the existing tree line symbology. 18. [32.5.2(n)] Buildingfootprint. Provide length and width dimensions for the proposed building footprint. 19. [32.5.2(a)] Scales.
