Re: SDP202200048 Regents School Major Site Plan Amendment - Review Comments
The County of Albemarle Planning Division will grant or recommend approval of the plan referenced above once the
following comments have been addressed: [Each comment is preceded by the applicable reference, which is to the
Subdivision/Zoning Ordinances unless otherwise specified.]
1. [32.5.2 (c)] Please provide a phasing plan. No Certificates of Occupancy can be issued for any of the buildings until all
other site improvements are installed, unless a phasing plan is provided for this project. Jalen Boone,
600ne0albemarle.org, is the site inspector for this project and is willing to assist the applicant with developing a
phasing plan that will allow CO's to be issued for individual buildings. Be aware that all features shown within specific
phases will be required to be installed prior to issuance of CO's for buildings within each individual phase.
2. [32.5.2 (a)] Please update the zoning note on Sheet 1 to state that the properties are located within the AIA Airport
Impact Area Overlay, FH Flood Hazard Overlay, and Managed and Preserved Steep Slopes Overlay Districts.
3. [32.5.2 (a)] The plan does not appear to show the property boundaries as they exist after the 0.739 and 0.280 ROW
dedication was platted through recordation of SUB202100217. Please address the following:
a. On Sheets C3-C9, please verify that the accurate parcel boundaries for TMPs 76-17 and 76-66 are shown.
b. State the acreage of both parcels on Sheets C3 and C4.
4. [32.5.2 (a)] Please show the limits of the "School Use Boundary" and "School Buffer Area" from the approved Special
Use Permit on all applicable sheets.
5. [32.5.2 (b)] Sheet 1 states the building shall be limited to 2 stories per the conditions of the SP, however there are no
conditions related to building height. The height should be in conformance with the R1 zoning, which is 35 feet.
6. [32.5.2(i)] Label on all sheets the existing Reservoir Road. Also include the state route number, right of way lines and
width, and centerline radii and pavement width.
7. [32.5.2 (n)] Please identify the circular shapes south of Building I on Sheets C6 and C7.
8. [32.5.2 (n)] Please identify what the rectangular structure between buildings A and B is.
9. [32.5.2(n)] Provide the location and dimensions for all existing and proposed improvements including. buildings (max
height for each building), walkways, fences, walls (including height), trash containers, outdoor lighting, recreational
areas and facilities, loading and service areas, and the proposed paving material types for all walks and parking lots.
a. Exterior dimensions for all proposed buildings are not labeled, please provide this information on all applicable
sheets.
10. [32.5.7] Please verify whether the Floodzone note on Sheet C1 is accurate. According to Albemarle County GIS, both
parcels are partially located in the Flood Hazard Overlay District. It also appears that the 100-year floodplain is labeled
on the site plans (See Sheet C4). If necessary, revise the Floodzone note.

11. [32.7.4.1] Approval of a VSMP Plan is required prior to final site plan approval. See attached Engineering review
comments for further information.
12. [32.7.5.1] Prior to approval of the major amendment, all comments related to the central sewerage system request
must be addressed. See comment letter from the Deputy County Engineer, Emily Cox, below.
a. Please be aware that the central sewerage system request requires approval by the County Board of
Supervisors. Once all comments have been addressed, the applicant should coordinate with Engineering
Division and Planning Division staff to schedule this matter for Board approval on an upcoming BOS meeting
agenda.
13. [32.7.9.9 (a)] Add a note to the landscaping plan stating "All landscaping shall be installed by the first planting season
following the issuance of the first certificate of occupancy within the development, or a phase thereof."
14. [32.7.8] Provide a lighting plan that addresses the following:
a. [4.17] Show the location of all outdoor lighting for any luminaries equipped with a lamp which emits 3,000 or
more maximum lumens.
b. [4.17] Provide a luminaire schedule identifying each type of outdoor luminaire proposed. Include the
manufacturer name, model number, lamp type (e.g. LED, incandescent, etc.), wattage/lumens emitted, and
pole/mounting height. Include a column in the schedule that identifies the symbology used for each fixture on
the lighting plan. State the number of each outdoor luminaire provided by type.
c. [4.17] Revise the photometric data table so a Light Loss Factor (LLF) of 1.0 is used to calculate footcandle
measurements. Revise the footcandle measurements shown on the plan as necessary.
d. [4.17] Show footcandle measurements for the entirety of the site. Please be aware that spillover from
luminaires onto public roads and property in residential or rural areas zoning districts shall not exceed one-
half foot candle. It appears that the lighting max exceed this requirement in certain places.
e. Please add a note stating that athletic field light poles will not exceed 70' in height.
f. Please add a note stating that outdoor lighting of the athletic field will not continue past 10:00 PM.
g. [4.17.4 (b)(1)] Add a note to the lighting plan stating "The spillover of lighting from luminaires onto public
roads and property in residential or rural areas zoning districts shall not exceed one-half foot candle."
h. [4.17.4 (b)(1)] Add a note to the lighting plan stating "All outdoor luminaries emitting 3,000 lumens or greater
shall be equipped with a full -cutoff fixture."
i. [4.17.4 (b)(2)] Add a note to the lighting plan stating "All outdoor lighting, regardless of the amount of lumens,

easement plat is recorded, update all new easement labels to state the easement type, dimensions, and recorded
instrument (deed book and page number).

RE: Regents School of Charlottesville - Major Site Plan Amendment

1st Review
Dear Justin Shimp:
The Albemarle County Service Authority (ACSA) has reviewed the above referenced site
plan, dated 6/28/2022, and the following comments must be addressed prior to the plan
being approvable to the ACSA.
1. Has the private offsite sewer easement been recorded yet? If not, what is the
status of obtaining this easement?
2. RWSA will need to review and approve the amended plans.
3. Provide fixture counts for all the of the proposed buildings.
4. Label the ground cover for the Regents Plaza (will this be grass, artificial turf,
pavers, etc.).
5. The waterline cannot be reduced to a 6" waterline until after the hydrant on the
eastern side of the parking lot.
6. At the western end of the waterline, remove the 22.5 degree bend, extend the line
slightly further and have a 90 degree bend turn the waterline towards the fire
hydrant.
7. Revise the location of the proposed water meter so that the waterline does not cross
the wide area of concrete. If the waterline crosses the sidewalk, it should cross
perpendicularly. Minimize the concrete that is in the ACSA easement. Revise the
layout of the private waterlines so that they are not inside the ACSA easement
except a single line on the back side of the water meter.
8. Show and label an RPZ behind the water meter and outside of the ACSA easement
but before there is any branching of the private waterline. Label the RPZ as private.
9. At the 8" x 6" waterline tee at Sta. 13+15, add an 8" GV on the west side of the tee.
10. Near Stations 13+50 and 14+00, replace the 90 degree bends with 45 degree bends.
Revise the ACSA easement in this area so that it is 20' wide and centered on the
waterline.
11. Remove all trees and shrubs from the ACSA easement.
