Memorandum

From: Andy Reitelbach, Senior Planner, Planning Division
Date: July 26, 2021
Subject: SLTB2021-00102 — HTC Area C Townhomes — Final Subdivision Plat
The Planner for the Planning Services Division of the Albemarle County Department of Community
Development will recommend approval of the plan referred to above when the following items have been
satisfactorily addressed. (The following comments are those that have been identified at this time.
Additional comments or conditions may be added or eliminated based on further review.)
1. This application consists of two separate plats. A second fee will need to be paid for the second
plat, and an additional application number will be assigned to the second plat.
Comments below are divided among those comments that relate to both plats, those comments that relate
only to the Block III plat, and those comments that relate to only the Block II plat.
Both Plats
2. These plats do not match the final site plan that is currently under review for these same parcels
(SDP2020-00063). The final site plan and the final subdivision plat must be in conformance with
one another. Additional comments may be provided based on the subsequent layout of the site
plan, including the need for additional easements, or the re -subdivision of lots (if the plat is
recorded first).
3. As attached single-family houses are proposed for this development, a final site plan is required.
4. Easements proposed to be public need to be labelled as "hereby dedicated to public use."
5. Deeds will be required for easements.
6. HOA documents, such as a declaration of covenants and restrictions, are required, with
appropriate maintenance agreements, identifying the party(ies) responsible for ownership and
perpetual maintenance of private assets or facilities in common ownership, such as the access
easements.
7. Provide the intended ownership of all proposed common areas.
8. Ensure future submittals of the plats have dates of last revision.
9. Note # 12 on each plat needs to be revised. Every proposed parcel must have a building site that
complies with Section 4.2.1 of the Zoning Ordinance.

10. Include a note on each plat that the property is not within an ag-forestal district.
11. The property in each block is not within a water supply watershed. Revise the relevant notes on
each plat.
12. Provide a written note on each plat, or show graphically, the required setbacks for the parcels in
each block.
13. Provide the following note on each plat: "The streets in this subdivision may not meet the
standards for acceptance into the secondary system of state highways and will not be maintained
by the Virginia Department of Transportation or the County of Albemarle."
Block III Plat
14. On the Block III plat, clarify that Area A is dedicated to the County for public right-of-way.
15. The property in Block III is zoned Planned Development — Mixed Commercial (PDMC), pursuant
to ZMA2001-00020 (not NMD, with ZMA2017-00005).
16. Identify whether the proposed 30' access easement on the Block III plat is a private street
easement or a private alley easement.
Block II Plat
17. The property in Block II is zoned Planned Development — Mixed Commercial (PDMC) (not
NMD).
18. On the Block II plat, clarify that Area A is dedicated to the County for public right-of-way.
19. Lot 40 has no information provided for it.
20. Private streets have not been approved for this block at this time. Requests for private streets in
the development areas must be submitted to the Community Development Department, with
justification, for staff to analyze and review.
If approved, the labels will need to be changed to "private street right-of-way."
21. Identify whether the proposed new variable width access easement along Connor Drive on the
Block II plat is a private street easement or a private alley easement or some other type of
easement.
22. There is a label for a sanitary sewer easement on Lot 24. However, it does not appear to be
identifying or pointing to anything. Clarify.

Margaret Maliszewski, mmaliszewski@albemarle.org —No objections at this time; see the comment below:
ARB approval is not required for subdivision plats.
Albemarle County Engineering Services (Engineer)
John Anderson, janderson2galbemarle.org — Requested changes; see the comments below:
1. 14.302A.8. requires preliminary plats identify the number, approximate dimensions, and area of each
proposed lot, and while this is a final plat, without clear identifying information, future owners or
builders may encroach on proposed stone or ACSA easement/s.
a. Engineering defers to Planning, but:
b. Notes that deck or structure improvements proposed with ESP, SDP202000063, C8 in some
cases graze an easement. If (building site) lots do not appear on the final plat, it is possible
construction may encroach on easements.
2. Please ref. SDP202000063, C8 Lot 10 boundary with TMP32-41K. A sidewalk on TMP32-41K
crosses parcel boundary with Lot 10. If this is the case, Applicant may be required to furnish a
sidewalk maintenance agreement to share maintenance expense between Owner, Lot 10, and Owner,
TMP 32-41K.

This site will require a two (2) new private road names. Per Sec. 7-200-B of the County's Road
Naming and Property Numbering Ordinance (Page 2 of PDF).
"It is intended by this article that all roads within the County which serve or are designed
to serve three or more addressable structures will be named; and that all addressable
structures within the County will be assigned property numbers.
Please see screenshot below.
The red (1) and blue (2) will each require a road name. However, will anything be
built to the left circled in black? If so, the red road should extent that way and we
would require a V road name for the smaller section circled in black to go back
out to the main road to avoid confusion.
We recommend providing three (3) candidate names for each road to our office for
review, in case your first choices are not acceptable.
