The specific request was to identify what changes are required to bring the road into the state system. I have reviewed all of the files available to me. I have found no specific summary of improvements that are required. Attached are two separate documents I found that speak in one way or another about necessary improvements. I have spoken with Joel DeNunzio at VDOT to see if he had any additional information. He does not. A detailed road plan showing the existing design of the road including pavement design,horizontal and vertical curvatures and drainage would need to be submitted to VDOT to allow them to determine if the road meets the construction standards for acceptance. Mr. DeNunzio,also pointed out that since this road was last reviewed for possible acceptance some standards may have changed. One significant change is the connectivity requirements VDOT has for roads. As built this road likely does not meet those standards. I hope this information is somewhat helpful. If you have questions please feel free to contact me. Joel DeNunzio may be reached at 589-5871. Sincerely, William D. ritz,AICP Chief of Current Development From: Winn, Jr.,John V1 3. [Johnl.Winn@VDOT.Virginia.govj Sent: Thursday, December 21, 2006 4:22 PM To: David E. Pennock Subject: SUB 05-302 Redbud Phase 2 Rt 20 David, I have reviewed the recently submitted plans for Redbud Phase 2. The proposed roadway cannot be taken into the State Secondary System until the existing Redbud Lane has been brought up to current State standards for roadway design and entrance criteria met to ensure a safe and well engineered roadway. A plan needs to be submitted for the existing Redbud Lane to show the existing geometncs and the proposed upgrade for the existing road. The planning and construction needs to start at Rt. 20 and continue in toward the proposed road and cul-de sac John W. Winn Jr. L.S. Contract Administrator (Construction) Charlottesville Residency Tel#434-293-0011,Ext.119 johnl.winn@vdot.virginia.gov • ' 1 09-18-2007 SUB-2005-00302 Redbud Subdivision (Existing and Proposed) Allan, We have reviewed the above plan and have the following comments. Existing Road: • Sight distances and adequate intersection treatment needs to be provided at the intersection of route 20. According to the existing traffic and the proposed development, there should be a taper from the right turn approach. • Culvert and ditch computations need to be provided with the plan. • The vertical curve at station 24+37 does not meet standards. The 11.608% grade beyond the vertical curve is steeper than acceptable and the 0% grade starting around station 28+00 can cause drainage issues. The VPI at station 24+68.10 should be moved back to 24+40+/-with the addition of a vertical curve that meets the minimum K=17 or greater. The grade should then go up at no greater than 10%to around station 29+00+/-with a vertical curve around 400 to 450 feet or whatever length hits closest to the existing grade to minimize grading. The grade should then go back down at 10% and hit in the approximate location where it is currently proposed. This change will reduce the grade and increase the K values to at least meet the minimum standards and provide adequate grades for drainage by removing the 0% grade • The note on the typical section for shoulder widening when guardrail is installed needs to show widening to 7 feet. • Minimum size of driveway culverts needs to 15 inches • Sideslopes should not be steeper than 3.1 Proposed Road • Sideslopes need to be 3:1. • The shoulder width when adding guardrail needs to be 7 feet. • EC-1 Class II shouldbe used on the outlet protection for the proposed culvert. If you have any questions, please contact me. Thanks, Joel Joel DeNunzio, P.E. Carlo Colombini 2660 Pinch'em Slyly Place Charlottesville, Va, 22911 January 9, 2008 Mr. William D. Fritz, A.LC.P.

Section 14-234 of the Subdivision Ordinance allows the Planning Commission to authorize private roads in rural areas under section 14-232(A)3 if the general welfare "would be better served by the construction of one or more private streets than by the construction of public streets". All residents along the existing private road wish to maintain the existing private road because it has existed since 1979 with no appreciable problems and an upgrade will create considerable disruption and disturbance for minimal benefit. The existing private road is obviously consistent and harmonious with the surrounding development. Construction of a public road would cause substantial degradation to the environment over the private road already in place. Section 14-234(C) says to authorize private streets the commission must also determine: 1. The private street will be adequate to carry the traffic volume. The existing road has proven to be adequate for the current 20 lots and the proposed 7 lots are only expected to generate an additional 70 trips per day. 2. "The comprehensive plan does not provide for a public street in the approximate location of the proposed private street." 3. "The fee of the private street will be owned by the owner of each lot abutting the right-of-way thereof or by an association composed of the owners of all lots in the subdivision, subject in either case to any easement for the benefit of all lots served by the street." 4. The private street will not serve through traffic. 5. The private street is not in a flood hazard overlay district. We believe that public health, safety and welfare would be better served by allowing the existing private road to serve the proposed subdivision rather than requiring the construction of a new public road. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, W. Thomas Muncaster, Jr. P. .
