1. [32.5.2.C, 32.5.2.1] — Phase lines; Street easements and travelways. Lot configuration and street layout is
inconsistent along Lexi Lane and Mercer Street when compared to other Pleasant Green applications under
review: SUB202100166 and SUB202000226 (approved). Overlapping plats/plans for phase 2 and phase 3 must
be consistent. Road plans, SUB2020000226, must be revised to match the final layout for phase 3 prior to
approval of Final Site Plans and Final Subdivision Plat for phase 3.
2. [32.5.2.T] — Dam break inundation zone. Indicate the limits of the dam break inundation zone.

Subject: Pleasant Green Phase III — Preliminary Subdivision & Initial Site Plan - DIGITAL
(SDP202100096)
The Pleasant Green Phase III ISP (preliminary plat) has been reviewed by Engineering. The following
comments will need to be addressed with the final site plan (or plans submitted prior to FSP):
1. Revise Phase III ISP consistent with Road Plan, Pleasant Green Phase II (SUB202000226), which is
under review, and nearing approval. Albemarle cannot approve plans in conflict with one another.
Developer preference appears to be to receive Phase II road plan approval required for Phase II
site or final subdivision approval, which is fine. Phase III ISP-preliminary plat review, however,
cannot proceed to approval until Phase II and Phase III road-site-plat-WPO plans are consistent
with one another. For example:
a. Street layout /alignments differ.
b. Proposed public RW varies (Phase II RP, Lexi RW =54'; ISP, Lexi RW =49').

2. Phase III FSP aooroval requires:
a. An approved Phase III road plan (with roads built or bonded).
b. Note: WPO202000053, Pleasant Green Phase II, Approved 10/1/21, appears unaffected
by any inconsistencies in Phase II -Phase III subdivision layout; in addition, WPO plan
sheet 1(plan title sheet) SWM plan note reads: 'The facilities designed with the Phase II
portion of the Pleasant Green development were sized for the proposed Phase III
development and impervious area. Additional nutrient credits will be purchased for the
Phase III portion of the project to meet water quality requirements, but the Phase II
facilities provide the required water quantity for this portion of the development'
c. A Phase III WPO plan (SWIM ref. to WPO202000053, ESC measures required for Phase
III) must be approved prior to Phase III FSP approval (or final Phase III subdivision).
3. Sheets 3, 4
a. Please ref. deed bk.-pg. for sight distance easement (rt.) at Int. McComb Street and
Litchford Road, or establish sight distance right, at this intersection, if not recorded. Sight
distance easement may be recorded with Phase III final subdivision plat.
b. Show private entrances extending across sidewalks to FC for all lots, similar to linework
shown for lots 58-64 fronting Litchford Road (Phase II).
c. Display private entrance curb radii, graphically (to help minimize conflicts with water
meters, for example), similar to linework shown for lots 58-64.
d. Provide lines to demarcate individual parallel parking spaces for on -street parking.
4. Sheet 5
a. Provide deed bk.-pg. reference for existing public /private drainage easements (recorded
with phase I or II final subdivision plats).
b. Establish public drainage easements on lots with storm pipes serving public streets that
cross exterior lot lines, from public RW to lot interior (Lots 211-215, for example).
5. Provide LD-204, stormwater inlet computations, LD-229, stormwater drain design computations.
6. Provide storm drain profiles, for Phase III structures and pipes.
7. Sheet 6
a. Provide storm capture behind attached units to ensure stormwater surface runoff does
not cross more than three lot lines. For example: please provide capture /conveyance in
Engineering Review Comments
Page 3 of 3
areas behind attached units (for example: lots 162-167, 185-194, 229-234, similar to that
provided for Phase II lots 131-136.
b. Revise proposed grade contours to ensure grate /yard inlet capture for lots, as needed.
c. Provide private drainage easements for yard inlet systems, item a., above.
8. Sheet 7: DP, D, pavement design values are accurate, and sufficient for projected ADT.
9. Note: Pleasant Green Phase III is partially covered by WPO20200053, Approved 10/1/21, but a
separate WPO is required to meet all ordinance /state stormwater /ESC requirements. Also, item
2_b., above.

Re: SUB-2021-00096 — Pleasant Green Subdivision, Phase 3 — Preliminary Site Plan and Plat
Review # 2
Dear Mr. Holt:
The Department of Transportation, Charlottesville Residency Transportation and Land Use
Section has reviewed the Pleasant Green Subdivision, Phase 3 — Preliminary Site Plan and
Preliminary Plat, dated February 13, 2022 as submitted by Collins Engineering, and find the
following:
1. Existing Phase 2 is not shown correctly.
2. Phase 3 appears to have overlapped phase 2 for the block between Dunnagan Drive and
Lexi Lane. Please clarify.
3. CG-12's appear to be missing from Dunnagan Drive, sheet 4.
4. Lexi Lane does not match phase 2 Lexi Lane per Albemarle County plan #SUB-2020-
00226.
5. Please include Dunnagan Drive in the Typical street sections.
6. Planting plan should be included.
7. Please include a note stating "Landscaping plants and trees adjacent to the sight distance
triangle will need to be maintained in area between 2 and 7 feet above ground as a clear
zone to preserve sight lines and accommodate pedestrians. The HOA will be responsible
for the maintenance of sight lines."
8. Provide drainage calculations.
9. Please include a note stating that VDOT will only maintain within drainage easements to
the extent necessary to protect the roadway from flooding or damage.
10. Show "No Parking" signage on all roads except in areas with designated parking.
Begin/end signs should be shown to delineate areas.
11. Please show the mail boxes & cluster box units per RDM Appendix B(1)-56
VirginiaDOT.org
WE KEEP VIRGINIA MOVING
12. Approved road plans meeting SSAR, and in compliance with the VDOT Road Design
Manual are required prior to plat approval.
13. Due to the required changes additional comments or conditions will be forthcoming.
14. Please provide a comment response letter with each submission after the initial.
15. Note that the final plan must show conformance with the VDOT Road Design Manual
Appendices B(1) and F, as well as any other applicable standards, regulations or other
requirements.
A VDOT Land Use Permit will be required prior to any work within the right-of-way. The
owner/developer must contact the VDOT Charlottesville Residency Land Use Section at (434)
