1) entrance, driveways, and parking
We recommend that you discuss entrance options and the existing sight -distance problem with
VDOT before finalizing your submission. As discussed at the pre -application meeting, you should
consider using the existing Bryant Ln to reduce the number of entrances and possibly simplify the
process of VDOT entrance approval. If the proposed entrance design would require an exception
from VDOT, we will ask you to obtain that exception before we would schedule this item for its
public hearings.

• The conceptual plan should include a landscaping plan that proposes native
species for screening or offsetting of the visual impact of the expanded facilities.
Rather than the older type of SP conditions from the 1970s (preserving "as much
as possible' of the existing vegetation, adding fencing, etc.), our recent SP
approvals have included references to specific planting plans. We understand
that some portions of the site will not be able to support canopy -height
vegetation. Shrubs and/or pollinator -friendly plantings are appropriate in those
areas.
• To update you on the topic of setbacks: The Zoning division has determined that the
substation property is a "special lot" (a designation used for utility sites and other
non-standard lots) and is not subject to the setbacks required in the RA zoning
district. Therefore, the 75-foot front RA setback that we discussed at the pre -
application meeting does not apply, and no variance is needed if
structures/equipment intrude into the 75 feet. However, we still recommend that
structures and facilities be kept as far back from the road as practically possible, and
that the landscaping plan discussed above be used to screen visibility of the facility
from the road.
• Stormwater facilities and associated grading/development should be redesigned to
stay outside the 100-foot stream and wetland buffer. Stormwater facilities are
permitted within the 75-foot front setback, but retention of mature roadside
screening vegetation is recommended.
• The application should include information regarding any potential fire/rescue
training needed related to the new equipment to be installed.
Please note: There are additional submittal requirements outlined on the official application for a Special Use Permit.
