Andy Reitelbach From: John Anderson Sent: Tuesday, January 11, 2022 2:30 PM To: Rachel Moon Cc: Andy Reitelbach; Kyle Redinger Subject: Planning Application Review for SUB202100202 ALBEMARLE BUSINESS CAMPUS: BLOCK 1 - EASEMENT - DIGITAL. [ Engineering review comments I The Review for the following application has been completed: Application Number = SUB202100202 Reviewer = John Anderson Review Status = Requested Changes Completed Date = 01/11/2022 This email was sent from County View Production. Rachel, Thanks for your patience. A single plat review comment remains, item l.b. —we appreciate plat revisions which address virtually all review comments. Engineering is glad to check plat revision (.PDF preview) later today, or tomorrow, item 1.b. CV comments: 1. Sheet 2 a. For clarity, recommend inset details (1`40') for 80, 85, and 357 ft2 R/W dedication. (Rev. 1) Withdrawn. Applicant (12/23/21 letter): `The ROW dedication in these portions of the property is to accommodate a curb and gutter section, with a planting strip and sidewalk. Because the existing ROW nearly accommodates this street section, the new boundary line is set 4"-10" behind the existing boundary line in some areas of the dedication. In addition to the small areas of dedication (80, 85, and 357 SF), the dedication is along 100-200 LF of road frontage that is curvilinear, resulting in a variable width ROW dedication. Due to these conditions, inset maps of a meaningful scale would be very large, but would require extraneous sheets; because the new boundary line would be clearly defined by this plat, we respectfully pose that the inset maps would not provide additional utility and the needed information is provided in the definition of the new boundary.' Engineering accepts this well -reasoned position for review item l.a. b. Provide inset detail for N 22°51'54" E 0.45' boundary segment relative to C 13, C1. (Rev. 1) Persists. Applicant: identical response to l.a. As follow-up: In this instance, it is possible to infer but not positively determine that 0.45' boundary segment departs (on bearing N22°51'54"E) from north end of C 13, but this inference requires an understanding of plat conventions. Please provide 1" =20' inset scale to clarify orientation of C 13-0.45' line-Cl. Note: If LS is strictly opposed, then comment is withdrawn. Engineering encourages .PDF preview be sent prior to formal resubmittal for quick check /approval. 2. Sheet 3: Label C7, C8, and boundary segment S 83°32'23"W, 41.35' for reference. (Rev. 1) Addressed. Applicant: `Additional references have been added for clarity.' 3. Sheet 4 a. Provide inset detail for D14. (Rev. 1) Addressed. Applicant: `This jog D14 in the easement has been removed.' b. Provide linework to discriminate between public drainage and SWM facility easements; that is, provide separate SWM facility easements for each underground detention system sufficient to allow future maintenance of each system. (Rev. 1) Addressed. c. Label drainage easement upstream and south of the southernmost detention /SWM facility `New variable width private drainage easement.' (Rev. 1) Addressed. d. Label all remaining drainage easements `new variable width public drainage easement' since remaining drainage easements lie downstream of SWM facilities, and storm pipe downstream of SWM facilities require public drainage easements. (Rev. 1) Addressed. e. Please work with design engineer to evaluate proposed SWM facility width and private /public drainage easement widths against Albemarle County Design Standard Manual easement diagram, at ACDSM, p. 15 link: https://www.albemarle.ore,/home/shonublisheddocument/270/637202458267970000 ). Easement widths may need to increase, based on size -depth of burial of detention systems, once compared with easement diagram. (Rev. 1) Addressed. f. Revise /expand drainage easement line data to accommodate items b.-e., above. (Rev. 1) Addressed. g. Revise sheet 4 title to Drainage and SWM facility easement.' (Rev. 1) Addressed.'
