Please see our response below A. Special Use Permit Thank you for revising and resubmitting your proposal and including additional information to address comments provided by staff in the initial comment letter dated March 5, 2021. Staff have reviewed the revised materials submitted on April 19, 2021 and offer the following comments: 1. On the conceptual plan, staff recommend the following revisions: a. Remove the "Caliber Collision Vehicles Enter Only' signage label located in the right-of-way. Private business signage within the public right-of-way is unlikely to be accepted by VDOT. Response: Label removed. See revised site plan b. Remove the "Existing City Decorative Light Pole" label. The orientation and placement of these lights may change during the review of the site plan. Response: Label removed. See revised site plan c. There seems to be a conflict between the in/out circulation of the southern entrance and the "Caliber Collision Vehicles Exit Only" sign. Is the intension for the southern entrance to be limited to exiting vehicles? If not, please remove this label. Response: Label removed. See revised site plan d. Remove the "Existing Pylon Pole" label. Response: Label removed. See revised site plan e. Provide a label for the conversion of the existing sidewalk area into a planting strip. Response: Label "Proposed planting strip" added. See revised site plan 2. Please be aware, comments from the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) indicate that the southern proposed entrance does not meet the minimum entrance spacing (565 feet) for a 45 mph Principal Arterial road. As a result, VDOT will require an Access Management Exception at the site planning stage. While this exception is typically evaluated as part of the site planning Bret Flory 1913 Garden Grove Court • Plano, Texas 75075 • 972.467.9749 process, failure to obtain the exception could have significant impacts on the special use permit. For context, special use permit approvals, as standard County practice, are conditioned such that development of the proposed site must be "in general accord" with the proposed conceptual plan. If the site plan fails to be in general accord with conceptual plan, an amendment to the special use permit condition is required. Since there is no "fast -track" for special use permit amendments, this would effectively mean a new special use permit review. Staff recommend the applicant pursue the Access Management Exception prior to the approval of this special use permit to ensure no significant changes are needed to the conceptual plan. Response: Please find attached approved access management exception request from VDOT 3. Please note, due to the placement of the 14-foot wide shared -use path, the available planting area will likely not be able to accommodate trees that meet the Entrance Corridor frontage tree size requirements. In which case, the proposed conceptual plan will preclude the final site plan from meeting landscape design requirements. Staff recommend the applicant follow up with ARB and Planning staff regarding whether substitutions, waivers, or exceptions to these requirements are possible. Response: We plan to present the attached proposed landscape plan for the site plan review. ARB completed an advisory review and recommended approval of the SP at this stage. 4. Please also note, in reviewing the integration of the frontage condition recommended by the Places29 Master Plan, staff are concerned that the proposed frontage improvements may create unsafe conditions. To be specific, the placement, width, and ramping of the 14-foot wide shared - use path could be mistaken for a vehicular driveway or convenient vehicular drop-off location, rather than a pedestrian facility. This could lead to direct and significant conflicts between pedestrians and vehicles. In addition, the posted speed limit along this section of Seminole Trail/Rt 29 is 45mph. In which case, vehicle drivers may not be able to successfully correct their movements if/when they realize the 14-foot wide shared -use path is not a driveway. Therefore, staff recommend additional safety -oriented measures be included in a future site plan to ensure frontage improvements allow for a safe pedestrian environment. Safety measures may include signage, bollards, pavement markings, and other design features. Response: Bollards have been provided. See revised site plan. We will coordinate during the site plan review B. Comprehensive Plan Initial comments on how your proposal generally relates to the Comprehensive Plan, which in this area is the Rio29 Small Area Plan, are provided below. Comments on conformity with the Rio29 Small Area Plan are provided to the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors as part of the staff report. The Rio29 Small Area Plan designates this property, TMP 45-106, as a Core area. The Core designation is characterized by a highly urban and pedestrian -friendly environment. Buildings within this area are recommended to be 3-6 stories in height, built close to the street, have windows on the ground story along the street and active first floor uses. The plan also recommends pedestrian access and relegated parking in the Core area. In comparison with Rio29 Small Area Plan, the proposal is inconsistent with the recommendations of the Plan in three ways: use, street frontage design, and building form. The Rio 29 Small Area Plan explicitly states that auto service uses are not encouraged in the Core. However, the Plan does allow that these uses may be permitted by exception when the applicant can demonstrate that there will be minimal impacts on surrounding uses. The proposal is also inconsistent with the recommended street frontage design along Route 29, on which the subject property is located. The Plan designates Route 29 as a Through Corridor, prescribing an optimal street frontage design that includes a 5- foot to 25-foot frontage zone, a 14-foot shared -use path, and an 8-foot separation zone between Bret Flory 1913 Gardengrove Court • Plano, Texas 75075 • 972.467.9749 the building face and the public street. Staff recommends the proposal work to incorporate these recommended street frontage design aspects in order to be more consistent with the Rio 29 Small Area Plan. Lastly, the proposal is inconsistent with the Rio29 Small Area Plan in that the existing building, to be utilized by the proposed body shop, does not align with the Plan's form and site design standards. The Plan recommends buildings 3-6 stories in height and massing that avoids expansive blank walls, in favor of transparent first floors to create visually interesting pedestrian environments. The existing building on this site is 1-story in height and includes expansive blank walls along the sides of the building which are visible from the Entrance Corridor. That said, since the proposed use does not intend to make significant changes to the existing building's exterior, staff acknowledges that the continuation of the existing building form is acceptable, as the current inconsistency with the Rio29 Small Area Plan is not being increased. Update 5119: Staff acknowledges additional information and revisions provided by the applicant to address conformity with the Rio29 Small Area Plan. The revised conceptual plan includes frontage improvements (e.g. shared -use path, separation zone, etc) that align with the recommendations of the Small Area Plan. Also, in evaluating the appropriateness of the proposed use on the subject property, staff acknowledges that many of the services offered by the proposed use will take place indoors and, as indicated by the applicant's narrative, the proposed use will likely not be a source of substantial or excessive noise, odor, dust, or vibration. The applicant's narrative also addresses environmental precautions and safety measures that will be observed by the proposed use. It is not clear, based on the conceptual plan, what buffering/screening features (e.g. landscaping) or topography may be preserved onsite. Based on the applicant's narrative, staff could find the proposed body shop use acceptable in this location as minimal impacts are expected to surrounding uses. Response: Acknowledged. We appreciate the consideration. C. Additional Comments from Reviewers Planning Comments Staff has reviewed revised materials submitted by the applicant on April 19, 2021. The following comments related to planning matters have been provided by Mariah Gleason: 1. Concerning a future site plan, the southern ingress/egress travelway does not provide at least a 20-foot travelway width in all areas. This travelway will likely need to revised to meet the County's requirements for two-way circulation provided in section 4.12.15. Response: Please find attached approved VDOT access management exception 2. Please keep in mind, approval of the special plan or any modifications to any standards. Response: Acknowledged. use permit in no way implies approval of a site 2. Should the special use permit be approved, development of the site and building cannot commence without an approved site plan and appropriate building permits. Response: Acknowledged Zoning The Zoning reviewer, Lea Brumfield, Brumfield@albemarle.org, reviewed revised materials submitted by the applicant and has no objections to this proposal. Response: Acknowledged Bret Flory 1913 Gardengrove Court • Plano, Texas 75075 • 972.467.9749 Engineering The County Engineer, Frank Pohl, fpohl@albemarle.org, reviewed revised materials submitted by the applicant and has no objections to this proposal. Response: Acknowledged Entrance Corridor/Architectural Review Board (ARB) The ARB reviewer, Khristopher Taggart, ktaggart@albemarle.org, reviewed revised materials submitted by the applicant and provided the following comment: 1. Due to the 14' wide shared use path shown in the conceptual site plan, the available planting area will likely not be able to accommodate trees that meet the Entrance Corridor frontage tree size requirements. We plan to present the attached proposed landscape plan for the site plan review. ARB completed an advisory review and recommended approval of the SP at this stage. Fire/Rescue The Fire/Rescue reviewer, Howard Lagomarsino, hlagomarsino(a)albemarle.org, reviewed revised materials submitted by the applicant. Fire/Rescue has no objections to this proposal, but offers the following information/comments for a future site plan: Response: Acknowledged. We will coordinate the any outstanding comments below during Site Plan Review 1. Please provide a note on future plans of ISO fire flow for the structure's intended use Response: 2,000 gal/min for 2 hours fire flow note has been added 2. Please provide ACSA available fire flow test. Response: Please see attached fire flow test showing a total estimated flow (gpm) of 2,610 3. Knox Box will be required. Please place a note indicating this on the future plan. The location of this can be coordinated with the Fire Marshal's Office. Response: Attached site plan shows proposed Knox Box location. Final location to be coordinated with the Fire Marshall 4. An unobstructed path of 20ft is required for emergency vehicle and fire apparatus access so that all portions of grade level are within 150 ft of the emergency vehicle and fire apparatus while on access road. Response: The attached site plan has been coordinated to meet the 150 ft hose lay 5. Gate on north side of building is too narrow and restricts access of emergency vehicles and fire apparatus. Width is required at 20 ft, unobstructed. Response: The attached site plan meets the 150 ft hose lay requirement therefore, full fire lane around the building is not required. The fire access road provided has been reviewed and approved by Mr. Howard Lagomarsino 6. Clarify locations and distances to closest hydrants. Response: Please see attached fire flow test and map 7. Clarify square footage of space and determine need for fire suppression sprinkler system (if required, fire department connection needs to be within 100 ft of a fire hydrant and on address side of building) Response: The building area is 9,200+1- SF. Fire Suppression sprinkler is not required.

Response: Please find attached approved access management exception request from VDOT Building Inspections The Building Inspections reviewer, Betty Slough, bslough@albemarle.org, reviewed revised materials submitted by the applicant and has no objections to this proposal. Response: Acknowledged Albemarle County Service Authority (ASCA) The ACSA reviewer, Richard Nelson, rnelson@serviceauthority.org, reviewed revised materials submitted by the applicant. ACSA no objections to this proposal, but offers the following information/comments for a future site plan: 1. Proposed pavers in front of Calber Collision cannot encumber ACSA water easement along Rt. 29. Response: The proposed paver is 3'-0" from the water main.Since we are required to meet the frontage design requirements for Rio29 Small Area Plan, an encroachment agreement may need to be coordinated. 2. Fixture counts will need to be provided, once determined, to ensure the existing water meter is accurately sized. Response: Acknowledged.
