Tucker Deputy County ENecutive County Office Building 401 McIntire Road Charlottesville, VA 22901 Dear Mr. Tucker: Roads within the above captioned subdivision are anticipated to be added to the state secondary system for maintenance. These roads were sized anticipating only traffic within the subdivision. No through traffic or volumes from outside the subdivision proper were used to determine the grades, curvatures, base or sur- face designs. It has come to my attention that Section 7 of this subdivision has been platted with a 50' easement reserved for access between Earlysville Forest Drive and Parcel 46 on tax map 31. It appears that this access easement could introduce outside traffic to Earlysville Forest Drive. Depending on the area served by this easement and the zoning of that area,- this traffic volume could be sufficient to change the standards required for Earlysville Forest Drive. My review of our files indicates that this access easement was not shown on the plat forwarded to our office for review. To my knowledge no one within the Department was contacted directly concerning this access easement until it as brought to my attention last week. • • COMMONWEALTH OF ViRGINIA DEPARTMENT-OF HIGHWAYS AND TRANSPORTATION Ho. Robert W. Tucker - Earioville Forest Subdivision , December 17. 1986 - • • The roads withinEarlysville Forest Subdivision are currently under review for addition to the system.
