Additional Comments Related to The Site Plan:
1. [Comment] Project number. Now that the initial site plan has been assigned a project number,
please include the number — SDP202100027 — in the title/heading of the Cover Sheet.
Response: The project number has been added to the title on the cover sheet.
2. [32.5.2(b)] Parking schedule. On the Cover Sheet, provide the calculation that was used to
determine the number of required parking spaces for this plan. (Note: Per Albemarle County Code, ar
appropriate scheduled use for this development is "Retail use not otherwise identified" which requires
one space per 100 square feet of retail sales area for the first 5,000 square feet and one space per
each 200 square feet of retail sales area above 5,000 square feet. Retail sales areas is defined as
80% of the gross floor area.)
Response: The calculation that was used to determine the number of required parking spaces
has been included on the cover sheet under site data as requested.
3. [32.5.2(n), 4.12.4] Shared parking. The site plan notes that the 20 parking spaces in the small
parking area at the rear of the property will be created for the benefit of TMP 61 W-02-2B. Please be
aware that, per Sec. 4.12.4(a), County Code does not allow the number of proposed parking spaces
to exceed the number of required spaces by more than 20 percent. The current site plan exceeds the
number of required spaces by 41.7%. It may be possible to provide the desired parking schedule
Kimlep Horn
Page 6
through a shared parking agreement. Staff recommends following up with the Zoning Division to see
if this may be an option.
Response: Through conversations with the Building Official, the 20 additional parking spaces
will be factored into the maximums for the rehab facility. The Wawa parcel would therefore be
reaching the parking requirement.
4. [32.5.2(n), 4.17] Outdoor lighting. Please refer to comments provided by the ARB reviewer below

Sec.4.12.18 requires loading spaces to be a minimum of 12 feet in width, 14'/z feet in clearance
height and a length sufficient to accommodate the largest delivery trucks serving the establishment,
but providing no less than 25 feet in length. Please be aware, that code section also requires the
