Rev. 1: Thank you for providing this information. Is there a building located on the property line abutting TMP 101-26, near the existing dwelling units on proposed Lot 1? A building in this location does not affect the ability to approve the proposed plat, however staff wish to confirm whether a building does, in fact, exist in this location or if this might be a clerical error. 6.

Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 7. [14-302(B)(5)] Overlay districts. Include in Note 3 that TMP 10 1 -27 is subject to the Entrance Corridor overlay district. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 8. [General Comment] Parcel reference. Please revise plat labels and notes to identify parcels with the prefix "TMP" instead of "PID". Albemarle County Code identifies parcels as Tax Map Parcels, TMP.

In the label for Terrell Forest Lane, identify whether this street is a public or private.

On the plat map, label TMP 101-38 and show its departing lot line from the subject property. Rev. 1: Comment sufficiently addressed. Based on the applicant's response, staff acknowledge that the Albemarle County GIS Web data may not show parcel line adjacencies correctly in this area. 13. [General Comment] Remove Notes 9 and 14 from the plat. These notes are duplicative and also not necessary. Terrell Forest Lane has already been established and approved. The note is typically only provided when new private roads are being proposed. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 14. [General Comment] Duplicative notes. Please update the plat to remove additional duplicative notes. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. a. See Notes 5 and 11 b. See Notes 6 and 15 15. [General Comment] Dwellings per parcel. Please be aware that Albemarle County Code only allows for one dwelling unit per parcel. The ordinance defines "dwelling unit" as "a single unit providing complete, independent livingfacilities for one (I) or more persons, and which has permanent provisions for living, sleeping, eating, cooking and sanitation." (Note: If proposed Lot 1 contains two dwelling units meeting this definition, that Lot will need to be assigned at least 2 of the available development rights in order to be able to comply with the County Code.) Rev. 1: Comment currently addressed by the revised plat but may need to be revisited, depending on the number of development rights associated with the subject parcel. 16. [14-302(B)(1)] Resubmission. Reminder that revised plats must include the original date of drawing and the revision date(s) of each subsequent version of the plat. Rev. 1: Comment remains.
