Dear Mr. Moore & Ms. Cox:
We have reviewed all of your comments from May 20, 2021 and made the necessary revisions.
Please find our responses to the comments below in bold lettering.
1. Please confirm: Orion Ln Ext will be turned over to VDOT as a public highway while Fennel Rd
will remain a private street.
Orion Lane will extend as a public highway and Fennel Road will extend as a private road
based on the existing connections being made.
2. Will parking be allowed on Orion Ln Ext? If not, show locations of "No Parking" signs.
Orion was designed as 30' face of curb to face of curb so that parking can be along one side of
the street.
3. Please remove trees within 30" of intersections as shown in Section 5-D, Appendix 13(1) of the
Road Design Manual.
Trees have been removed within 30' of the intersections.
4. All traffic on private streets must stop before entering a public street. Show the locations of
"Stop" signs.
Stop signs have been shown on the re -submission.
5. Show the locations of all traffic -control devices, including signs, and ensure they conform with
the MUTCD and other regulations.
