RE: Response Letter #4 for SDP201800040 Hunters Way — Major Site Plan Amendment
Dear David,
Thank you for your review of the major site plan amendment for Hunters Way. This letter contains
responses to County comments dated Sept 22, 2021. Our responses are as follows:
1. WPO plan/amendment must be approved before site plan amendment is
a pproved.Acknowl edged - WP02016-52 amendment.
(Rev.2/3/4) Comment still valid.
(Rev.5/6) Comment still valid. SWIM easement deed & plat will need to be recorded prior to
SDP approval,as well.
The easement plat has been submitted today (03-04-2022), the WPO Amendment
was resubmitted on (02-28-2022). We have resubmitted this SPA today because the
length of the SWM detention pipe and SWM maintenance easement was increased
by 20'. The other change was a revision to the orifice size. Based on conversations
with Albemarle County engineering in February 2022, the County's most recent
policy is that energy balance equation compliance is required even if orifice size is
less than 3" (within reason). As is shown in the latest WPO amendment, the Energy
Balance Equation can be met with a 2.5" orifice. This is smaller than 3" but is
within reason. This chance required the detention pipe to increase in length by 20'.
To keep all applications with the same information, we are resubmitting the site
plan today.
If you have any questions or concerns about these revisions, please feel free to contact me at
keane@shimp-en ing eering com or by phone at 434-227-5140.
