Reviewer Betty Slough CDD Inspections Requested Changes
Add the following note to the general notes page:
Retaining walls greater than 3 feet in height require a separate building permit. Walls exceeding 4 feet in height require a
stamped engineered design also. Walls require inspections as outlined in the USBC.
Add the following note to the general notes page:
Accessible parking spaces, access isles, and accessible route shall be installed in accordance with ICC ANSI At17.1-09 and
the 2015 Virginia Construction Code.
Add the following to the general notes page:
All roof drains shall discharge in a manner not to cause a public nuisance and not over sidewalks.
Add the following note to the general notes page:
Buildings or structures built before January 1, 1985 must have an asbestos survey performed in order to apply for a demolition
permit.
Asbestos removal permits are required if positive for such from Albemarle County and VDOLL Contact VDOLI for their
additional requirements and permits for demolition projects at 540-562-3580 x131.
Replace note 16 on the ACSA notes with:
All water, sewer and fire lines require NEW inspection and testing procedures. The ACSA performs any testing and
inspections of the public sewer and water main(s).
The Albemarle County Building Inspections Department(ACBID) does a visual inspection and witnesses the testing of the
building drain, water service pipe and the sprinkler lead-in connection.
The developer/contractor is responsible to retain a Special Inspector as outlined in the updated Albemarle County Policy for
Site Utilities to perform the visual inspection and testing of all utilities
not covered by the ACSA orACBID. This includes building sewers, water and fire line branches between the main and the
meter(s)/bu ikl ing (s).
The Special Inspectors report must be submitted and approved by the Albemarle County Engineering Department prior to a
Certificate of Occupancy being issued.
Based on a scaled measurement of the pool area, the pool area needs three (2 accessible) means of egress to the public way.
The building plan does not show occupant load or MOE doors that would be of sufficient size and locations to accomodate both
the building and pool area occupants. Plan accordingly.
Is there a lighting plan?

As requested, I've reviewed the subject site plan, dated 9/10/2021, for the proposed
construction, referenced above.
Water and sewer will connect to existing systems. It also appears that the existing well
south of the tennis courts will not be affected by the construction. Therefore, I have no
concerns or objection to the plan.
If there are any questions or you wish to discuss, please give me a call, 434-972-4306.
