whether it is a public or private right-of-way, state the width of the right-of-way, and state
the recorded instrument deed book (DB) and page that created the right-of-way.
Addressed; Lambs Lane exists as private access from Lambs Road serving the County

5. [14-302 (A)(5)] All proposed public drainage and stormwater easements require a deed of
dedication to be recorded with the easement plat. Engineering staff will draft templates of
these deeds and provide them to the applicant. Please contact Engineering directly for
information on the deeds of easement. Noted and in process (not a plat revision item).
6. [14-302 (1111)(5)] Please add notes to Sheet 1 that state that the property is subject to
the conditions of VA198100028 and SP201600004. Addressed; Please see Survey
Note 1 updated to include, in bold, the referenced conditions.
7. [Sec. 14-303 (1)] Please provide a definite bearing and distance tie between not less than two
(2) permanent monuments on the exterior boundary of the property and further tie to existing
street intersection where possible and reasonably convenient. Addressed. Regarding exterior
boundary monument ties: prior to platting of easements, Timmons Group recovered the
nearest available boundary monuments (located 1000' +from site area, along south
boundary near Georgetown Green). Ties are stated as shown to ea. of the two drainage
easements, which adjoin the SWM Facility easements. The three (3) found monuments
include course labels along the property boundary so that each tie can be related to any
three of the found monuments. Due to the location of the easement relative to the property,
NAD83 coordinates are also provided for all easements.
Regarding street intersection: project / site area is quite far from public roads and
references to existing intersections are not strong, nor are said roads surveyed (657 & 743).
This plat emphasizes recovered property monuments.
