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. [Each comment is preceded by the applicable reference to the Albemarle County Code.] 1. [14-309, 14-310, 14-416] Soil evaluations. Soil reports per 14-309 are needed from the applicant for review/approval by the Virginia Department of Health (VDH). Health Director approval of individual private wells and onsite sewage systems are needed prior to final plat approval by the County. Rev. 1: Soils reports for review/approval by VDH is needed prior to final plat approval. Please submit when ready. 2. [14-308.1, 14-203] Groundwater assessment. A Tier 2 Groundwater assessment is needed for this subdivision per 17-1000 and 17-1002 of the zoning ordinance. This evaluation is run by the County. Please submit the required fee provided in Sec. 14-203 ($391.00 + 4% Technology surcharge = $406.64) via the online County payment system and provide a receipt of payment to the Planning reviewer (Mariah Gleason). Rev. 1: A Tier 2 Groundwater assessment analysis and fee is needed prior to final plat approval. Please submit when ready. 3. [14-400, 14-4031 Lot frontage. The proposed "private access easement' will need to be designated as a "New 30ft Private Road" instead for Lot C-1 to meet minimum frontage requirements for Rural Area parcels. Please revise the plat map and Note 6 (to change access easement to private road) accordingly. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 4. [14-302(B)(10)] Stream buffers. Albemarle County GIS indicates that stream buffers are present on the subject property. Revise the plat to locate existing stream buffers on the site map provided at the top of Sheet 2. Also, provide the following note on the plat: "The stream buffers shown hereon shall be managed in accordance with the Albemarle County Water Protection Ordinance." Rev. 1: Comment not addressed. The note, in particular, must be added to the plat. 5. [14-302(A)(10)] Development Rights. The subdivision plat that created Lot C assigned only one development right to the property. The parcel therefore only has one development right to assign to either Lot C or Lot C-1. Based on the proposed plat the residue of Lot C, being 22.67 acres in size, can be created in accordance with the 21-acre rule (see Sec. 10.3). This rule stipulates that each lot less than 21 acres in size have a development right. Therefore, the one development right available to the property must be assigned to Lot C-1, which is 2.00 acres in size. As such, please revise Note 8 on the plat to state the following: "The Residue of Lot C has no development rights and may not be further divided. Lot C-1 is assigned one development right and may not be further divided." Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 6. [14-302(A)(4-5)(15), 14-303(Q] Easements. According to a previous plat for this property, the subject parcel may/may not be subject to an easement to Appalachian Electric Power Company DB 273-459. If it is subject, please provide a note on the plat. Rev. 1: Comment dismissed. 7. [14-302(B)(7)] Reservoir watershed. Provide a note on the plat as to whether the subject property is within an Albemarle County and/or City of Charlottesville water supply watershed. (Note: The subject property does not lie within a water supply watershed of Albemarle County and/or City of Charlottesville.) Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 8. [14-303(N)] Private street. Due to a recent amendment to the subdivision ordinance, please replace Note 7 with the following statement: "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)." Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 9.
