Commissioner April 2, 2019 County of Albemarle Department of Community Development 401 McIntire Road Charlottesville, VA 22902 Attn: Paty Satemye Re: Berkmar Overlook — Initial Site Plan & Preliminary Plat SDP-2019-00010 SUB-2019-00030 Review #1 Dear Ms. Satemye: The Department of Transportation, Charlottesville Residency Transportation and Land Use Section, has reviewed the above referenced plan as submitted by Collins Engineering, dated 4 February 2019, and offers the following comments: 1. Is Parcel 45-86A being redeveloped in the near future? It appears that the Albemarle County SPCA acquired this parcel in October 2018. Unless this parcel is expected to be acquired and redeveloped in the near future, this stubout is not necessary; therefore, the intersection is not necessary and a curve should be used. Note that the proposed development appears to meet connectivity requirements with proposed connections to both Berkmar Drive and Woodburn Road. 2. Please provide an exhibit demonstrating the grading necessary to extend Swede Street to the North, and identify limits of temporary grading easements necessary should the road be extended. 3. Marked crosswalks do not appear to be warranted and should be removed. 4. For cul-de-sacs with radii less than 45', approval of Albemarle County Fire & Rescue is required. 5. The proposed intersection of Empire Street and Marsac Street does not meet corner clear/spacing requirements. 6. The curve and reverse curve on the western end of Marsac Street and through the intersection with Empire street do not appear necessary. 7. The proposed entrance to Parcel 45-112F does not meet corner clearance/spacing requirements. 8. Street trees cannot be within 30 feet of intersection curb radii. 9. Provide turn lane warrants for both Berkmar Drive and Woodburn Road. 10. Intersection sight distance lines and profiles must be provided for all intersections. 11. Note that the final site and subdivision (road) plan must show conformance with the VDOT Road Design Manual Appendices B(1) and F, as well as any other applicable standards, regulations or other requirements.

There are existing RWSA water mains along three sides of the project area — along Woodburn Road (12" DIP & CIP), between Woodburn and Berkmar on the northeast boundary of the project (12" CIP), and along Berkmar Drive (30" DIP). These lines need to be shown correctly and labeled with ownership, size, and material (e.g. 12" RWSA CIP WL). A GIS map is shown for general location of the water mains; but exact locations need to be field - verified. 2. Show existing RWSA 15' wide easement where it intersects with TMP 45-12F1 and 45-112F2. 3. The applicant should note that the existing 12" and 30" water mains are on different pressure zones. The 12" water mains have an HGL of 795' and the 30" water main has an HGL of 652'. Sheet No. 3 — Layout & Utility Plan 1. Correctly show and label existing RWSA 12" water mains and easements this sheet. The 12" waterline in Woodburn Road is incorrectly labeled as an 8" water line. 2. A connection is shown to the existing 12" water main in Woodburn Road. See note 3 on Sheet No. 2 regarding the two separate pressure zones located adjacent to the project area. The applicant will need to confirm with RWSA and ACSA the allowable connection points to serve this development. 3. RWSA is in the preliminary stages of design of a future 36" raw water main that will be constructed along Woodburn Road in front of the proposed development. The exact alignment is not yet determined; however, RWSA may need to pursue easements along the frontage of Woodburn for the construction of the water main. These easements may intersect the proposed tree preservation and open space areas along Woodburn Road. Sheet No. 4 — Layout & Utility Plan 1. Correctly show and label existing RWSA 12" and 30" water mains and easements this sheet. 2. A connection is shown to the existing 30" water main in Berkmar Drive. See note 3 on Sheet No. 2 regarding the two separate pressure zones located adjacent to the project area. The applicant will need to confirm with RWSA and ACSA the allowable connection points to serve this development. 3. The utility plan shows three proposed crossings of existing RWSA water mains with sanitary sewer lines. All crossings should adhere to AWWA and VDH guidelines regarding separation of water and sanitary sewer lines and should be made with a minimum vertical separation of 18". Sheet No. 5 — Grading and Drainage Plan 1. Correctly show and label existing RWSA 12" and 30" water mains and easements this sheet. 2. The proposed storm sewer doghouse manhole at the intersection of Berkmar Drive and proposed "Road A" must be a minimum of 5' off the existing 30" water main (from the outside of the pipe to the outside of the structure). Sheet No. 6 — Notes & Details 1. Include the RWSA General Water and Sewer Notes this sheet (attached). Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you, Victoria Victoria Fort, P.E.
