[ Engineering review comments 1 Date: Thursday, August 18, 2022 12:18:07 PM The Review for the following application has been completed Application Number = SDP202200049 - ISP Reviewer = John Anderson Review Status = See Recommendations Completed Date = 08/18/2022 This email was sent from County View Production Ben, thanks for your patience. Please share Engineering ISP review comments with applicant at your convenience, as Engineering has not. CV recommendations `For final site plan approval: 1. WPO plan approval is required prior to ESP approval. a. Since on -site SWM facilities are proposed (underground detention), SWM facility and public drainage easement (plat w/deeds) must be recorded prior to WPO plan approval, or with a final subdivision plat. b. Development proposes nutrient credit purchase; letter of nutrient credit availability from an eligible nutrient bank is required prior to WPO plan approval. 2. If subdivision (not likely]; a. Road plan approval is required prior to final subdivision plat approval, and roads must be built or bonded prior to final plat or final site plan approval. b. SWM facility /public drainage easement may be recorded with a final subdivision plat. 3. Sheet 3: a. At building 1 and 6, provide design that allows driver to reverse maneuver (3-point turn) without using private drive /garage entrance. Design should allow vehicles (delivery, USPS, private) entering development to reverse without using private entrances, to exit. 28' access easement must be sufficient (small-scale t-type turnaround, etc. is required at last apartment unit, building 1 and 6, with Autotum fig, with final site plan). b. Revise building exit, N end building #4, such that residents do not virtually immediately encounter curb /travelway. Proposed design must provide ADA compliant landing. Current exit location (proximate to travelway, N end building #4) presents hazard to residents, a risk to public health, safety, and welfare. 4. Sheet 4: Provide continuance of storm conveyance from Walgreen's underground SWM facility (adjacent parcel to west), which releases runoff to the Maplewood Development in existing condition. Make provision for off -site storm runoff that currently releases to Maplewood.' Thanks, again, John E.

To ensure this occurs, there needs to be no parking, fire lane signs and/or markings along the roads. There are signs depicted on the plan, but does not appear they meet spacing requirement to allow enforcement. 2) Please indicate the need fire flow for the buildings as a note on the plans. 3) Please indicate the available fire flow as a note on the plans. 4) Hydrants are required for the proposal. Please indicate the location of hydrants to ensure they meet the required number and spacing based on the needed fire flow (the least stringent which is every 500 feet with no building more than 250 feet from a hydrant). 5) If the buildings are equipped with a sprinkler system, please indicate the location of the fire department connections (FDC) for each building and ensure there is a hydrant within 100 feet of the FDC, arranged so that when hydrant and FDC are in sue, the travelway access is not obstructed.

Ben, I recommend SDP202200049 Maplewood Development — Initial Site Plan for approval with the following conditions: Submit a copy of the utility drawings to ACSA for review. The ACSA has updated the typical easement widths for sanitary sewer mains, relative to depth. The ACSA may require additional easement for the sanitary sewer main throughout the site.

Please submit turn lane warrants for review per section 3 of RDM appendix F. 2. Pedestrian crosswalk warrant is required for mid -block crossings. Mid -block crossings are crossings not associated with stop locations. These crossings must be evaluated in accordance with the guidelines of IIM-TE-384. 3. Please show entrance throat dimensions per figure 4-9 commercial entrance designs along highways with shoulders, RDM appendix F. 4. Show/label types of curbing and transition areas in entrance area. 5. CG-12 across proposed entrance do not appear to meet the standards. Please refer to Sheet 204.1 of the VDOT Road & Bridge Standards for detectable warning installed on a radius. 6. Entrance appears to be shown as CG-13 for commercial entrance with heavy truck traffic anticipated sheet 203.10 instead of a CG-11 entrance. Please explain. 7. The proposed 10' asphalt pathway will need to be on one side of the right of way in its entirety. If within the R/W, path will need to meet the Shared Use Path criteria per RDM appendix A(1). 8. Please show how existing off -site drainage from TMP 32-37C will be addressed and not affect existing/proposed right of way on Rte. 649 (Proffit Rd.) and Rte. 1722 (Worth Xing). 9. Please show the proposed landscaping. 10. Appears to be a potential conflict with drainage structures and directional signs, please review. 11. Please show all proposed utility work within the R/W and mill/overlay areas per LUP-OC. 12. Due to the level of items noted in this review, these comments may not be exhaustive. 13. Please provide a comment response letter with each submission after the initial. VirginiaDOT.org WE KEEP VIRGINIA MOVING 14. 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 Charlottesville Residency land Use Section at (434) 422-9399 for information pertaining to this process. If you have further questions please contact Max Greene at (434) 422-9894. Sincerely, John C. Wilson, P.E. Assistant Resident Engineer Area Land Use Charlottesville Residency SDP202249 Maplewood — Initial Site Plan Albemarle Co CDD Planning (Transportation) —Jessica Hersh-Ballering hlaeomarsino@albemarle.org 07/21/22 1. Site plan should more clearly indicate that shared use path is to be constructed along Proffit Road (rather than solely dedicating right-of-way), particularly on page 3. 2. CG-12 ADA ramp should be added to the shared use path on the northeast corner of the property to allow for access to the splitter island. 3. There appear to be significant gaps in the plan's pedestrian infrastructure for internal circulation. Specifically, there appear to be no sidewalks along Caspian, Keener, and Drexel Lanes. Further, when sidewalks intersect these streets, the sidewalks end abruptly with the sidewalk offset by at least 50' on the opposite side of the street (Drexel) or not continuing at all (Keener). 4. Where the pedestrian infrastructure crosses Drexel (site entrance)there should be traffic calming or at least an indication that drivers should expect pedestrians (as this is currently the only pedestrian access to the recreational area/tot lot for most residents).
