PRELIMINARY SITE PLAN RESPONSES
April 15, 2002
To: Stephen B. Waller- Department of Planning & Community Development
From: WW Associates and Robert Hauser— Stonehaus
The following are responses offered in regards to comments received from
Albemarle County on March 21, 2002. Each comment has been reviewed and a
written response given as to how the comment was addressed and where to locate
the changes on the plans. Should you have any further questions, please feel free to
contact our office.
General:
1. Much of the information that has been submitted at this point is very extensive for
preliminary site plan review, and it is anticipated that there will be a need for
several subsequent revisions before the Site Review Committee accepts the
tentative site plan for final approval. Therefore, it is recommended that further
efforts are concentrated mainly toward ensuring that all of the information
required by Section 32.5 of the Zoning Ordinance (Preliminary Site Plan Content)
and the specific information required by all reviewers is provided on the revised
preliminary site plan in an orderly fashion.
Response: Detailed drawings have been omitted
Preliminary Site Plan Checklist (Section 32.5):
2. (32.5.3) Provide a notation of all waivers, variations, modifications and
substitutions that were granted for this development with the review of the Zoning
Map Amendment:
Response: This information has been added to Sheet G-2, Page 3 of 27.
3. (32.5.6a) Provide the rezoning file number (ZMA 00-10) for the action that was
approved to allow the proposed used with the listing of proffers;
Response: This information has been added to Sheet G-2, Page 3 of 27.
4. (32.5.6a) Provide a notation of the Magisterial District that this property lies in;
Response: This information has been added to Sheet G-2, Page 3 of 27.

within this section of the development;
Response: This information has been provided on Sheet G-2, Page 3 of 27.
12. (32.5.6c) Although phasing is not required, it is being recommended that this
section of the development be sub-phased due to the number of buildings
proposed at this site. This would allow the projected timing of construction to be
shown on the site plan in order to ensured that all improvements are being
installed as required for the occupancy of each building (i.e. recreational
amenities, parking, landscaping, etc.). Please note that without such phasing in
place the Department of Building Code and Zoning Services will require a bond
Avemore Preliminary Site Plan Responses 1-2 WWA Project#201094.00

Response: Sub phasing of the project has been shown on Sheet 0-4, Page 10 of 27.
13. (32.5.6d) Identify all areas of the site where slopes of twenty-five percent (25%)
or greater exist. In accordance with Section 4.2 of the Zoning Ordinance, any
proposal to disturb such areas must be accompanied by a request for Planning
Commission approval of a critical slopes waiver. Information provided with this
require must include a statement of the total area of the site covered by 25%
slopes and the portion of those slopes to be disturbed, and must also address all
five of the health, safety and welfare concerns identified in Section 4.2;
Response: Illustrations of critical slopes are now provided on Sheet 0-7, Page 13 of 27.
Also enclosed with this submittal is a letter requesting a critical slopes
waiver.
14. (32.5.6i) Prior to approval of the final site plan, land must be acquired through

Response: This information has been shown on Sheet C-1, Page 15 of 27.
19. (32.5.6n) Show the proposed locations of any ground-based heating, ventilation,
and air conditioning equipment. Please note that these types of equipment are
considered to be objectionable features that must be properly screened from
public road rights-of-way and residential properties, in accordance with Section
32.7.9.8c(3);
Response: This information has been shown on Sheet 0-2, Page 8 of 27. Note that
because of the natural screening buffers that have been undisturbed, we
feel that these units do not require additional screening from adjacent
properties.
20. (32.5.6n) Provide the dimensions of all open space and recreational areas, as well
as a listing and description of any amenities to be provided within them;
Response: This information has been shown on Sheet 0-8, Page 14 of 27.

of 27 and Sheet L1-L2, Page 26 of 27-Page 27 of 27.
Parking and Circulation:
22. (4.12.6.1) Provide and show the locations of appropriate pavementia'kings and
safety signage in the areas where one-way circulation is being implemented;
Response: This information has been shown on Sheet Cl, Page 15 of 27 through Sheet
C2, Page 16 of 27.
23. (4.12.6.5a) The Zoning Ordinance requires a minimum aisle width of 24 feet
when perpendicular parking is provided with a stall width of 9 feet and length of
18 feet. In several areas the parking lot travelways are not being shown in
accordance with this requirement, and instead have travelway widths of as narrow
as 22 and 20 feet. There are a few revisions that could made to address this
deficiency including, but not limited to the following: widening the parking
spaces to 10 feet (4.12.6.5b); use of the additional two foot overhang and
shortening of parking stripes to 16 feet in certain areas to allow widening of the
Avemore Preliminary Site Plan Responses 1-4 WWA Project#201094.00
April 15, 2002
County of Albemarle,Virginia
aisles (4.12.6.5d); or, adjustment of some structures near the travelways to
increase the aisle widths;
Response: Drawings have been revised to comply with the required width of travelway.
See Sheets CI-C9, Page 15 of 27 through 23 of 27.
24. (4.12.6.5e) Provide and show the locations of curb cuts and ramps adjacent to the
handicapped parking access aisle;
Response: These locations have been shown on the plans. See Sheets Cl-C9, Page 15 of
27 through 23 of 27.
Recreation:
25. (ZMA 02-10 Application Plan and Proffer C-2) None of the potential lots that
were shown on the approved application plan are shown in the section of the
development that is now being proposed with this preliminary site plan (behind
Buildings 20 and 21);
Response: The tot lots have been located on Sheet 0-8, Page 14 of 27 per a meeting with
the Site Plan Review Agent, Stephen Waller on March 28, 2002.
26. (ZMA 02-10 Proffer C-3) Show the proposed location of the two outdoor picnic
tables and two outdoor grills that are required to be installed at the community
clubhouse;
Response: The clubhouse is now in the middle of the site. The picnic tables and grills
have been moved to the open space adjacent to the pedestrian walkway,
per a meeting with the Site Plan Review Agent, Stephen Waller on March
28, 2002. See Sheet 0-8, Page 14 of 27.
27. (ZMA 02-10 Proffer G) Show the proposed locations of any portions of the
internal, five-foot wide asphalt walking paths that will pass through this section of
the development and be linked to the rest of the paths throughout the site as
shown on the approved application plan (i.e. paths adjacent to the ponds);
Response: The pedestrian walkway has been revised. See Sheet 0-8, Page 14 of 27.
28. (4.16.2.1) One (1)tot lot, at least 2,000 square feet in area, is required for the first
thirty(30) units, and for each additional fifty(50) units. Therefore, the equivalent
of six (6) tot lots is required for the 280 units proposed within this section of the
development;
Response: See recreation amenities Sheet 0-8, Page 14 of 27.

29. (4.16.2.1) Substitutions of equipment or facilities listed in the Zoning Ordinance
may be approved upon the Planning Director's determination that they offer a
recreational amenity that is equivalent to those specified and are appropriate to the
needs of the resident. Any request to allow such substitutions must be submitted
with information specifying the proposed substitute equipment, their specific
locations, and the extent to which they can serve an recreational amenity that is
equivalent to the facilities that they intended to replace;
Response: A request for substitutions will be submitted in a separate letter from the
owner.
30. (4.16.2.2) One half (1/2) basketball court is also required for each one hundred
(100) units and must be built to the specifications set forth in the Zoning
Ordinance;
Response: A request for substitutions will be submitted in a separate letter from the
owner.
Sitework and Layout
31. (ZMA 02-10 Proffer E) The connector road between this development and
Olympia Drive must be completed or bonded along with the work being shown on
this site plan. Because of this the road cannot be identified as "future", and
approved road plans will be required prior to final site plan approval;
Response: Road plans will be submitted for review during final site plan submittal.
32. (ZMA 02-10 Proffer H) Show the intended location required 8-foot wide right-
of-way for sidewalk, across the Wilton Lots, along the frontage of Route 20 that
will have to be dedicated prior to the approval of the final site plan;
Response: This information now shown on Sheet G-2, Page 3 of 27.
33. (ZMA 02-10 Proffer J) The Site Plan Note number 12 regarding clearing within
tree save areas cannot be approved as currently provided because no disturbance
shall occur within the 40-foot undisturbed buffer;
Response: This note has been deleted.
34. (32.7.9.8c(3)) Because the large trash compactor is being proposed at the front of
the property in a highly visible location, extensive screening will be required
between it and Fontana Drive. Screening will consist of a combination of the wall
that is currently being shown and additional landscaping. Additionally, in order
Avemore Preliminary Site Plan Responses 1-6 WWA Project#201094.00
April 15, 2002
County of Albemarle,Virginia kg
to ensure that the compactor is unobtrusive, the materials used in constructing the
wall shall be consistent with those being used to construct the buildings
throughout the development.
Response: Noted-Detailed landscape screening will be shown on the final site plan.
35. Please note that the current dumpster location appears to conflict with some of the
trees being shown on the conceptual landscape plan;
Response: The conflict of these planting has been corrected. See Sheet L-1, Page 26 of
27.
36. The June 20, 2001 Board of Supervisors meeting minutes indicate that the
applicant has negotiated various agreements with representatives from the
Fontana Homeowners' Association. Any agreements related to site design that
have been made with Fontana should be reflected on the plan in order to ensure
that the site layout currently under review will not be adversely affected; and,
Response: Any agreements that affect the "On-Site"layout of the entrance will be shown
on the plan.
37. The minutes from that meeting indicate that the applicant also discussed the
provision of integrating opportunities for public transit connections into the road
improvements with the Board of Supervisors. According to that discussion it
appears as if it was intended for the issues of public transit access to be addressed
during the review of the site plan.
Response: A Bus Lane will be provided at the entrance to the site. See Sheet Cl, page
15 of 27.
Final Site Plan Approval
Final tentative approval from the Department of Planning and Community Development
will be subject to the following conditions: (The following conditions are those that have
been identified at this time. Additional conditions may be added or eliminated based on
further review.)
1. (32.7.9) Approval of landscape plan depicting species types, number and
location. Please note that 1 tree will be required for every ten parking spaces and
shall be placed in close proximity to the parking lot. Please ensure that the final
landscape plan is coordinated with all on site utilities and their easements and that
all requirements of the Landscaping section are addressed adequately.
Response: Noted—final landscape plan will be submitted during final review.

4. We offer the following comments regarding easements.
a. It appears an access easement will be needed for the entrance and for the
portion of the travelway that extends beyond the southern boundary of the
site. For preliminary site plan approval, we require at the least letters of
intent to grant the necessary access easements.
Response: Letters of intent will be submitted by separate cover.
b. Drainage easements, minimum 20-foot wide, are required along all
drainage ways that convey runoff from off-site through the subject site.
Provide a note stating these easements will be dedicated to public use.
Both proposed ponds must also be in drainage easements dedicated to
public use.
Response: These areas have been delineated on Sheet 0-2, Page 8 of 27.
c. Grading easements will also be necessary for any off-site grading. These
are subject to the same letters of intent as the access easements in part a)
above.
Response: Letters of intent will be submitted by separate cover.
5. Include the maximum footprint and height of all buildings on the plan. (18-
32.5.6n)
Response: Response: This information is now shown on plan Sheet G-2, Page 3 of 27.
Building dimensions shown on Sheets CJ-C9, Page 15 of 27 through Page

6. Indicate on the plan the available sight distance for the entrance.
Response: This information has been shown on Sheet C-1, Page 15 of 27.
11. The proposed improvements along Fontana Dive (turn lane, sidewalk, curb and
gutter) are shown connecting to the ultimate road section. This section is not
currently in place, but is bonded. The Fontana developer is under a June 2002
deadline to construct the ultimate four lane section. Per VDOT comments, the
pavement structure of Fontana Drive will need to be redesigned to accommodate
additional traffic from the Avemore site. If the pavement is not strengthened prior
to the ultimate section construction, then we will require that it be reconstructed to
an adequate design with the development of Avemore.
Response: This issue will be addressed prior to June 2002 with VDOT and the Fontana
Developer.

12. For future submittals of the preliminary site plan, we ask that the E&SC plan,
SWM plan, detention basin routings, storm sewer calculations, road plan, storm
sewer profiles, water and sewer profiles, etc. not be included. We cannot review
these items until preliminary site plan approval is granted and the appropriate
review fees (final site plan, E&SC, and SWM) are paid. These items will be
reviewed at the final site plan stage. This will also help reduce the scale of
revision necessary to address preliminary site plan review comments.
Response: We have removed these sheets for this submittal - Note plan list on Sheet CS-
1, Page 1 of 27.
The following items must be submitted with the final site plan for review by the
Engineering Department
A. An erosion control plan, narrative and computations. (18-32.7.4.3, 17-203)
B. A completed application and fee for erosion control and stormwater management.
(17-203, 17-303)
C. A stormwater management/BMP plan and computations. Computations must
include water quality, and detention routings for the 2 yr and 10 yr storms. (17-
304)
D. A completed stormwater management facilities maintenance agreement and fee.
(17-323)
E. Drainage computations. (18-32-7.4)
F. Retaining wall plans and computations certified by a professional engineer for
walls over 5 feet in height.
Response: These requirements have been noted and will be submitted during final
review.

Reviewer: Jay Schlothauer
Based on plans dated February 25, 2002.
Verify that adequate fireflow is available. Required fireflow is 2,300 gpm @ 20 psi.
(Albemarle County Zoning Ordinance, Section 32.7.6)
Response: The Clubhouse is 3B Construction. Garage Flat Units are equipped with
firewalls. We believe that 1300 gpm will be adequate for any fireflow that
would be required. WW Associates is available for discussion of this
matter with ACSA.

recreation requirements can still be met and that all proffers for recreation will be
complied with. It does not appear that Proffer C(3) which states: "At least 2 picnic
tables and at least 2 outdoor grills will be provided in the area adjacent to the creek
behind the clubhouse" can be met due to the relocation of the proposed clubhouse. A
modification to the application plan must be approved by the Agent.

be extremely time consuming and cause the drawings to seem cluttered.
We have, however, added more typical dimensions so that finding the size
of the parking space is easier.
(32.6.6(c)) Please show phase lines for all phases.
Response: See Sheet 0-8, Page 14 of 27.

VDOT COMMENTS
Mr. Glenn Brooks
• Fontana Drive is currently only constructed to one-half of the approved cross section
and must be built to its ultimate design to qualify for acceptance into the secondary
system.
• The pavement along Fontana Drive will require a redesign and must be strengthened
to accommodate the additional traffic from this site.
• The developers of Fontana and Avemore should coordinate their efforts to satisfy the
above concerns.
Response: This issue will be addressed prior to June 2002 with VDOT and the Fontana
Developer.
• VDOT will perform traffic signal warrants to determine if traffic signal at Route 20
and Fontana is warranted and when deemed necessary will be the responsibility of the
developers to install as proffered.
Response: Comment Noted.
• A 300' sight line is required and will need to be shown on plans. It would appear a
sight easement will be necessary to accommodate the 300' sight line to the west.
Response: See Sheet C-1, Page 15 of 27.
