From: Andy Reitelbach, Senior Planner, Planning Division
Date: May 5, 2022
Subject: SLTB2021-00165 — HTC Area C Townhomes Block III — 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. 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). Comment still applies. The subdivision plats must match with the site plan.
VSMP and road plans must be approved prior to approval of subdivision plats.
2. As attached single-family houses are proposed for this development, a final site plan is required.
Comment still applies. An approved final site plan is required for this development.
3. Deeds will be required for easements. Comment still applies. Deeds are required for
easements prior to approval of the subdivision plat.
4. Ensure future submittals of the plats have dates of last revision. Comment continues to apply to
all future submittals.
5. Provide a written note on each plat, or show graphically, the required setbacks for the parcels in
each block. Comment partially addressed. For Block III, the build -to lines come from
ZMA2001-00020. Revise the setbacks note on the Block III plat. Comment addressed.
6. The property in Block III is zoned Planned Development — Mixed Commercial (PDMC), pursuant
to ZMA2001-00020 (not NMD, with ZMA2017-00005). Revise note #7 on this plat. This
property is subject to ZMA2001-00020. It was not a part of the rezoning application
ZMA2017-00005. Comment addressed.
7. Identify whether the proposed 30' access easement on the Block III plat is a private street
easement or a private alley easement. This comment has not been addressed. Clarify
distinction between new 30' access easement and new 30' private alley easement. If no
distinction, they should have an identical label. Comment addressed.
8. New Comment: [14-303(N)] A recent amendment to the subdivision ordinance requires the
addition of a note to plats that contain areas of private improvements. This note takes the place of

HOA documents, covenants, and restrictions being provided to the County for review and
approval. As such, add the following note to the cover sheet of the plat:
"Unless specifically denoted as public, the streets and other required improvements in this
subdivision are private in nature and will not be maintained by either the Virginia
Department of Transportation or any other public agency. The maintenance thereof is the
mutual obligation of the affected lot owners. Failure to maintain the improvements in
substantially the same condition as originally approved by the County may constitute a
violation of County ordinance(s)."
9. New Comment: A new area has been added to the site plan (SDP2020-00063) for Block III,
including a central mail area and the guest parking spaces. These areas of common ownership do
not appear to be accounted for in this plat.
10. New Comment: The Area Summary table has been removed from the plat. This table must be
added back on to the plat.
