Subject: RE: Lighthouse Easement Plats
Chris and David,
As a follow up to our conversation today I summarized the following items about the various deeds. Please let me know
if you have any comment or a different understanding for any of the items below:
• For storm and drainage Engineering will draft the deed from a template and send for signature. Yes
• For fire truck turn around Chris believes Lighthouse can draft and file along with recording the plat of the
easements on their property.There is not a template for this item; however,the applicant is responsible for the
development and recordation of this deed.The easement shall be for a temporary public turn around.The
County Attorney must review/approve it. It needs to be recorded prior to final site plan approval and
recordation information provided on the site plan.
• For temporary construction easement, Chris
agreement or review what your attorney drafts.There is not a template for this item; however,the applicant
shall draft the deed permitting public use of the easement.The County Attorney must review/approve it. It
needs to be recorded prior to final site plan approval and recordation information provided on the site plan.
• For sight distance,Chris says they are still having an internal discussion of whether that gets dedicated to
Lighthouse,The County or VDOT and who will draft deed. Required sight distance easements on adjacent
properties shall be provided deeds.The applicant is responsible for the development and recordation of these
documents.The County Attorney will review the draft deed once the applicant provides them.The County
Executive shall sign the deed once ready for approval.The deed shall be recorded with the plat and must be
recorded prior to final site plan approval. Provide recordation information on the site plan.Attached is an
example of an easement previously approved.

Chris per your latest comments we are adding a gas line easement. Do you know if The County or Charlottesville gas will
typically draft that easement or will the owner?The applicant shall work with Charlottesville Gas to determine what the
easement holders' needs are in the form of easements and deeds for the installation and continued maintenance of the
improvement. Prior to final site plan approval this item shall be addressed and recordation information provided on the
site plan.
Do you all have a template for the landscape agreement? There is not a template for this item.Attached is an example
of an easement previously approved.
Thank you for you help in getting these itesm finalize for this project,
Jonathan

David and Chris,
A question has come up on the Lighthouse easement Plats deed process.
Does the county attorney draft all the easements that will ultimately be dedicated to the County for this project? Would
this include drainage, fire truck turnaround, and sight distance? Or is sight distance to be drafted and recorded by the
owner or VDOT?
For the temporary construction and private utility easement my understanding is that those will be drafted and
recorded by the property owner correct?
Please let me know if you have any info on this or know who the best contact is to ask these questions.
Thank you,
Jonathan
