The Planner for the Planning Services Division of the Albemarle County Department Community Development will
recommend approve the plan referred to above when the following items have been satisfactorily addressed.
(The following comments are those that have been identified at this time. Additional comments or conditions may
be added or eliminated based on further review.) [Each comment is preceded by the applicable reference to the
Albemarle County Code.]
1. The site plan has an outstanding fee of $448 for mailing/notice. Fee must be paid prior to approval of initial site
plan.
2. See attached direction from the Post Master regarding group mailboxes. Please coordinate location with the Post
Master.
3. [32.5.2(b); 32.5.2(q)] The trip generation should be cumulative, revise to include all submitted blocks in Phase 1,
not just Village 1 and 2. This should include the market rate and LIHTC areas as well. This will allow quick
confirmation that the total trip generation does not exceed 5,000 per the Code of Development.
4. [32.5.2(b); 4.12.61 Show where the garage parking is located. Per the COD garages are only permitted to face
framework streets in Blocks 3-4, all other blocks do not permit street facing garages on framework streets. It
appears that lots 39-46 are proposing street facing garages on Horizon Rd (a framework street), which is located
in Block 5 and would not be permitted under the COD.
5. [32.5.2 (n)] Provide the dimensions for all existing and proposed improvements on the layout plan. Including:
walkways, fences, walls, parking lots, parking spaces (including garage spaces), other paved areas, driveways,
etc. In addition, provide the material types for all walks parking lots, and driveways. Many dimensions are not
being shown, example: the width of the driveway/parking area.
a) The length of the driveways should be a minimum of 18' (not blocking the sidewalk) to provide
adequate area for parking. Providing anything less will encourage residents to park there and
then part of their vehicle will be blocking the travel way and emergency access. This has been a
problem in other developments. Adjust the units so that 18 feet can be maintained as necessary.
6. [32.5.2 (a)] Include the ZMA number on the plans with the zoning district note (ZMA2018-003).
7. [32.5.2(b)] Show the maximum setback on the layout plans.
[Code of Development, page 16; 4.16] Show/indicate what facilities will be provided in the amenity spaces and
playground. Per the COD this is to be decided at site plan (page 16).
8. [32.5.2(n)] If lighting will be provided, it will need to shown and a lighting and photometric plan must be submitted
with the final site plan in accordance with 4.17. All lighting over 3000 lumens must be cut off.
9. [32.5.2(u)] For NMDs the following is required in the site plan:
a) A phasing plan (this is important for comment #3 above)
b) Building elevations for all new or modified structures
10. [ZMA; COD page 15] It appears on the greenspace chart that the amount required for trail and path is not being
met (1.05 required vs 0.90 provided). Revise this plan, or other plans to meet the minimum requirement. Since
this is the last plan for Phase 1, this needs to be addressed.
11. 132.5.7.9.71 Parking spaces of four spaces or more must be screened from streets and residential zoned areas in
accordance with this section. Screening will need to be provided for the parking lot at final site plan stage.
12. [CDBG requirement] Provide an ADA curb ramp in front of the Monacan Nation Park so that visitors to the park
can access it. In addition, a railing should be provided on the retaining wall at the back of the park to prevent
visitors from falling off. The design of the park will need to be coordinated with members of the Monacan Nation
and the County.

Date: November 23,2015
Subject: New Developments
In April 2012, the USPS revised regulation to clarify options for delivery and to provide the USPS
greater autonomy in determining how deliveries are added to the Postal Service network. While
curbline and sidewalk delivery remain viable and approved modes of delivery, the USPS will
determine how and when to approve these modes of delivery consistent with existing Postal
Operations Manual (POM) regulation regarding in -growth and both establishment and extension of
delivery.
Each year, new delivery addresses are added to our city, rual and contract routes which has a major
impact to our delivery cost. To control costs, we need to ensure new residential deliveries are being
made via centralized delivery. We must adhere to the guidelines that govern establishment of new
delivery. The City/County authorities (Planning and Zoning) can not give approval of delivery service.
The Postal Service cannot honor agreements that have been made between Planning and Zoning
and the developer.
At a minimum, the USPS will work with the builders and developers to determine what the best mode
of delivery is for the area prior to establishing or extending delivery service. However, as a national
agency, the USPS reserves the right to establish delivery in the most consistent and cost effective
means viable to meet our federal mandate of providing a free form of service that best meets the
need to establish and maintain a safe, reliable and efficient national Postal Service.
Please review the changes to the POM regarding Modes of Delivery and Delivery Equipment.
The changes are designed to enhance our ability to increase centralized and CBU delivery.
• Centralized and CBU delivery is now the default mode of delivery in business areas. Any
exceptions to centralized or CBU delivery mode in business areas must be approved by the District.
(631.2)
For new residential delivery, CBU is now the default. Exceptions to permit curbline delivery must
be approved by the District. (631.32)
• New deliveries within an existing block with an established mode of delivery no longer assume the
existing mode of delivery. We can require a more efficient mode of delivery (sidewalk delivery, for
example). (631.41)
• While we do not control addresses for buildings, we do control the sequential ordering of addresses
within any centralized delivery equipment. (631.442)
If more than one building in a complex has the same street address, the delivery equipment must
be grouped at a single location even if some of the units are in a different building. (631.452)
• Centralized delivery or CBU is the default option for delivery in mobile homes or trailer parks that
are permanent residences. Any exceptions to centralized or CBU delivery mode must be approved
by the District (631.462b)
• For dormitories and residence halls not directly affiliated with colleges, the Postal Service
determines the mode of delivery and can require the property owner to accept mail for all the
tenants. We will not distribute mail into centralized delivery equipment. (631.52)
• Delivery equipment must conform with the USPS standards for CBUs and high-rise delivery
equipment, USPS STD 4C wall mounted mail receptacles. Local offices do not have the authority to
approve any other centralized delivery equipment. (631.441)
-2-
• When obsolete delivery equipment is replaced in multi -unit buildings, it must be replaced with
equipment that meets current standards. (632.621)
The USPS standards include options for parcel lockers that we should ensure are provided.
There was also great consideration regarding safety of delivery, which also resulted in the
determination the the type of delivery warrented in your area.

Date Completed: Wednesday, September 01, 2021 Department/Division/Agency: Review Status:
Reviewer: Howard Lagomarsino
Fire Rescue
Requested Changes
1) Parking on roads without sufficient widths to accommodate parking without reducing the travel way width causes an
obstruction for access of fire apparatus. As a result, the fire code requires an unobstructed travel way width of 20 ft when the
height of a building is less than 30 ft and 26 ft when height of building (to edge of roof - not peak of roof) over 30 feet. The
roads in this plan providing fire apparatus access routes shall have a minimum, unobstructed travel way width of 20 feet.
Though the proposed roads exceed 20 ft., there are large sections of those roads where on street parking is not part of the
plan and any such parking is not allowed since it reduces the travel way width below 20 feet. As a result, those areas, require
no parking signs:
b) The following roads require no parking signs on one side:
i) Horizon Road
ii) Road A
2) 1 do not see no parking signs indicated on the plans for those roads. They are required to meet the maintenance of
unobstructed width requirements of the fire code. Please indicate them on the plan.
3) Move hydrant from cul de sac on Horizon closer to intersection with Road A to meet the hydrant spacing of a hydrant every
500 feet with no building more than 250 feet from a hydrant
4) Please indicate on the plans the required ISO fire flow for the buildings
5) Please indicate the fire flow available on the plans

Reviewer: Matthew Wentland
CDD Enoineerino I Requested Changes
1. The VSMP plan will need to be approved prior to Final Site Plan approval. Review of the VSMP plan may generate
additional comments on the Final Site Plan.
2. The road plan will need to be approved prior to Final Site Plan approval. Review of the road plan may generate additional
comments on the Final Site Plan.
3. Show the Forest & Open Space easement from the Village 1 plans. No improvements are allowed in this area (including
stone dust trails) and any grading will require DEQ BMP Spec. 4 Soil Amendments to be used.
4. The buffer disturbance from the basin will require mitigation. Mitigation outside of the buffer will require additional
easements.
5. Per the Code of Development, residential lots are to be located outside of stream buffers, preserved slopes, and
floodplains. Grading for the lots should also be outside the buffer.
6. Private drainage easements should be a minimum of 10' wide. The easement width calculation from the Design Standards
Manual should still be used for pipes not at minimum depth.
7. Drainage easements that are not a constant width should be labelled as variable width. Some of the other easement widths
appear to be incorrectly labelled (such as the 10' label on the easement for pipe 101).
