Subject: RE: SOCA Site Plan Minor Amendment
I've done my review and my previous comments have been addressed, but the E&SC sheets have been added back to
this plan set. Additionally, not all of the sheets have been sealed and signed. I was willing to sign with some of the
pages lacking a seal b/c the cover is sealed, but I think Engineering specifically requested that sheets 4&5 be removed
from the Site Plan. So,we're going to need 4 new sets with those pages removed and the sheet index changed back to
what is was on the previous submittal.

My plan is to review the minor revisions as soon as nil done with the review I'm currently working on; should be today
or tomorrow. This is well in advance of the June 23rd deadline for revision review. I would like to point out, in response
to Mr. Mueller's email below regarding staff's"seemingly endless ability to find new items to review and new
issues to discuss causing continued delays", I'm not certain what he's referring to but my comments haven't changed
from the beginning, it's just been a matter of them being addressed in an approvable fashion. While I understand the
frustration with getting plans througPl r process it should be noted that the plaftleasn't submitted until mid-August, so
it's been in the process less than 10 months and there was a 6 month delay between the second and third submittals
which is entirely out of the control of the County.

Subject: Re: SOCA Site Plan Minor Amendment
Chris,
Thanks for your update. I am grateful for your relentless pursuit of completion on this project. What I was
hoping to do is to get firm and final commitment from our public servants to acknowledge that the requirements
have been met, and then get them to actually complete the signatures and approve the work, so that I would be
able to present the good news that an approved minor site plan amendment has been achieved.
Given the County staffs seemingly endless ability to find new items to review and new issues to discuss
causing continued delays, I have become focused or getting the actual, approved drawings with staff signatures,
so that we know with certainty that we have achieved completion. Until we have the signatures it appears that
possibilities remain open for more discussion.
Thanks again for your assistance throughout the process. I will hope for final approval in the coming week.

Sincere thanks,
Bill

Bill,
To address your email. The County has copies of the plans to be signed by all departments. In the last round of
comments from the County they only had a few comments that didn't require an additional submittal to address,so
these were able to be addressed in the signature set currently at the County. With those comments addressed we will
have approval from all departments and will only need the plans signed. We hope to have the signed copies of the plans
in hand next week.

Subject: SOCA Site Plan Minor Amendment
Chris and Adam,
I am hoping that between the two of you gentlemen a contact can be made to the County to get the final
signatures and approval required so that we have an approved site plan. It would mean a great deal to my Board
of Directors to know that this process has been completed successfully after pursuing it for almost one year (we
met with the County staff on July 1, 2013, to kick of the minor site plan amendment). I have a Board meeting
in the evening on Monday, June 9, and would be delighted to report that we have achieved approval.
I am not sure of the best strategy, one call,multiple calls, should I call? What can we do to get this completed,
so that all of us can focus on the next phase of the project?
I am grateful for your help. Let me know if you need my help.
Thanks,
Bill

Yes, it is valid for one year from approval, per code 17-204G. Our system shows an approval
on 8/13/2013.
You will need to check with our Office of Facilities Development on the status of the basin,
or pending work at Belvedere. Our contact is Jack Kelsey (copied).
You should also be aware of a pending deadline of July 1st. The new county VSMP requirements
become effective on July 1st. You will need to have a VSMP permit as of that date.

I wanted to follow up on this email but wasn't sure who the proper recipient would be as I
believe Michael no longer works for the Engineering department.
It has been a while since this email was sent but I wanted to check to ensure Engineering
still needed 2 copies of the plan. After speaking with the client I also wanted to verify a
couple of things. First, the timeframe for which the WPO is valid, 1 year from date of
issue? I also wanted to check on the status of the sediment basin adjacent to SOCA to make
sure there weren't going to be issues using this. I know we have discussed that several
times previously but wanted to follow up as the plans will soon be approved by all the
departments and the service authority.

Chris,
Please consider this official notice of county approval for SOCA Fieldhouse (WP02013-00056)
based on the plans dated 8/8/2013 and received on 8/9/2013. Please see attached fact sheet
for engineering approvals.
Could your office send two additional copies of the plans for the file?
Also, prior to grading permit issuance we need a stormwater management maintenance agreement
and WPO-ESC and WPO-SWM bond agreements. I understand the fieldhouse will utilize a
previously approved basin for SWM. Please coordinate the bonding and SWM maintenance
agreement process with Ana Kilmer. It typically starts with the completion of an owner
signed WPO bond estimate request available here:

Christopher,
My very minor comments are attached. Engineering had no objection to the site plan. Once we
get ACSA's final approval, my comments can be handled on the sets you submit for
signature. . .no need for an additional submittal in between unless you want to do it. Be
aware of the WPO related requirements below in Michael's email from last year. I don't know
if you have already gotten that process started, but I wanted to remind you just in case.

districts and away from adjacent roads.
The spillover of lighting from luminaires onto public roads and property in residential or rural
areas zoning districts shall not exceed one-half footcandle.
Rev1: Comment addressed. However, it is difficult to tell but it appears that the 0.5 footcandle

In accord with the provisions of Section 32.4.3.5 of Chapter 18 of the Code if the developer fails to submit a
revised final site plan to address all of the requirements within six(6) months after the date of this letter the
application shall be deemed to have been voluntarily withdrawn by the developer.

Chris,
I just spoke to Alex and he said he is waiting on the Deed Book and Page Number from the
easement plat before he'll give his final approval on the site plan. Apparently he sent his
approval on the plat back on the 31st of March, but I never received it. He said their
network was having issues that day. Anyway, I sent his approval on the plat to Gwen a few
minutes ago and told her that plat is ready for signature. So, once that's all signed and
recorded, the DB and PG can be added to the site plan. Then, ACSA. shoulc give their approval
on the site plan. In the meantime, John and I can dc our reviews of h= _:. e plan revisions.
Thanks,

Ellie And John,
As we are intending to resubmit the SOCA Fieldhouse plans for approval today I wanted to make
sure we are all on the same page. We have removed the WPO sheets from the sheet set for the
Minor Site Amendment. The WPO was approved as of 8/13/2013, see email below from Michael
Koslow.
I also requested that Alexander Morrison give you a call since during my phone call with him
on May 2nd he said he it was approved on their end and was putting together the ACSA approval
packet. We will be resubmitting the Minor Amendment sheet set today to address your previous
comments and hopefully finally knock this out.

Chris,

Please consider this offictIlnotice of county approval for Sb Fieldhouse (WP02013-00056)
based on the plans dated 8/8/2013 and received on 8/9/2013. Please see attached fact sheet
for engineering approvals.
Could your office send two additional copies of the plans for the file?
Also, prior to grading permit issuance we need a stormwater management maintenance agreement
and WPO-E5C and WP0-5WM bond agreements. I understand the fieldhouse will utilize a
previously approved basin for 5WM. Please coordinate the bonding and 5WM maintenance
agreement process with Ana Kilmer. It typically starts with the completion of an owner
signed WPO bond estimate request available here:

Sorry to hear you are have a death in the family. Another one of the comments was for the temporary construction
easements,this comment was specifically about labeling the electric easement with the deed book and page number,
which apparently don't exist.
Please give me a call when you return so we can get this finalized and approved.

I'm in Alabama for the week for a family funeral, so I can't pull your folder to look this up specifically...but I think I made

I have spoken with Dominion Power, and they have no record of this easement. I have also reviewed
the County records and there is no record of this easement recorded with the County. I am waiting to
hear back from the group that handles this for the Belvedere Land Trust, but since the electric company
and the County neither have a recorded easement I am not expecting them to have anything either. In
which case, how should this be labeled on the plan?
This is the only thing we have remaining to address before resubmitting the site plans, hopefully for final

RE: SOCA Fieldhouse, Minor Site Plan Amendment Changes to Plans
Dear Ellie:
The County of Albemarle Planning Division will recommend approval of the plan referenced above once the
following comments 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.):
[Each comment is preceded by the applicable reference,which is to the Subdivision/Zoning Ordinances unless
otherwise specified.]
1. [32.5.2(a)] Please provide the correct tax map and parcel number, it appears the old TMP information is still on
the plan. Additionally, please revise the TMP acreage accordingly.
Rev1: Comment not fully addressed.This has been addressed on sheet 2, but sheet 3 still lists a different
TMP and inaccurate owner information; please revise. Also, please update the DB and PG information on
sheet 2 to DB 4299 PG 328, as that is the deed that created the existing parcel.
Duly Noted: TMP and Owner Information now match on sheet 2 and sheet 3.
4. [32.5.2(b)] Clarify the total square footage of the proposed building and the maximum footprint; there are
several different references to various square footages, but the only numbers that need to be provided are the total
square footage of the building and the maximum footprint. The breakdown of areas within the building assigned to
different uses is good;just make sure these numbers add up to whatever total square footage you provide. This
use isn't`recreational' as defined in county code (and recreational area isn't required), so please remove that
acreage reference. This plan also doesn't provide 'open space' as defined in county code; please remove that
reference as well.
Rev1: Comment not fully addressed.The total square footage is blank; please provide this information.
Duly Noted: Total Square Footage has been provided.
5. [32.5.2(b)] Please clarify how much parking is provided; the parking schedule lists 63 spaces, but the plan
appears to include 64 spaces.
Rev1: Comment addressed. However,the note references sheet 4 when it appears it should reference
sheet 6.
Duly Noted: Now references sheet 6
7. [32.5.2(i) & Code of Development] Please label the adjacent street and alley pavement and right-of-way or
easement widths.
Rev1: Comment not addressed. The right-of-way and easement widths do not appear to have been
provided. Additionally, please label and dimension the proposed widening of Colvin Alley.

Page 2 of 6
Duly Noted: pavement has been labeled, ROW has been labeled. Colvin Alley has been labeled and
dimensioned.
8. [32.5.2(k)]Verify that all necessary easements for proposed water, sewer and drainage facilities have been
shown on the plan.
Rev1: Comment not fully addressed. There are proposed water improvements within the open space along
Belvedere Boulevard, yet no easement is noted. Additionally,there are several areas where grading is
proposed outside of the parcel; grading/construction easements will be required and must be noted on the
plan. See comment#18 for more information.
Duly Noted: Easements are currently under review and have been approved by ACSA for the areas within
Belvedere Boulevard, and Colvin Alley. It was requested that we submit the site plan updates and the easement
updates concurrently so it can be verified that the easements align with the new utility locations.
9. [32.5.2(1)] Provide the location of any other existing or proposed utilities and utility easements including
telephone, cable, electric and gas.
Rev1: Comment not fully addressed. There is an underground electric line that runs between
Colvin Alley and the proposed building and then out to Belvedere Boulevard; does this line have an
easement? If so, it must be shown on the plan and permission must be granted from the easement holder
for any construction or improvements within the easement.
Duly Noted: 15' UGE Easement is now shown on plans. Permission from Dominion Power for construction
within easement to be acquired.
13. [32.6.2(j)&32.7.9.8] The minimum tree canopy requirement is 10%; this use is not exempt from the tree
canopy requirement(please remove the note that states this). It appears that this requirement is met if the street
trees are included. However, the plant schedule lists 13 Cornus florida, but the plan appears to show 14; please
verify and revise.
Rev1: Comment not fully addressed. Please include the street trees in the plant schedule; list the species,
quantity, and canopy provided. They can be noted as "already planted" if that's the case.
Additionally,two of the proposed plantings are actually in the open space parcel next to Belvedere
Boulevard; an easement must be established for landscape maintenance or these plantings cannot be
counted toward the canopy requirement.
Duly Noted: Street Trees have been included in plant schedule. Two plantings proposed in the open
space parcel next to Belvedere Blvd have been removed.
14. [32.6.2(j)] Several of the proposed plantings appear to be within existing or proposed easements or have utility
conflicts; please either move all landscaping outside of easements or provide proof of authorization from the
easement holder. See the fire line and drain pipe next to the parking lot in particular.
Rev1: Comment not fully addressed. As noted above, it appears that several plantings may be within an
electric easement; this should be resolved and documentation of permission to plant in the easement
must be provided. As noted in comment#13, two of the plantings are outside of the parcel boundaries;
please create a landscape easement if they are to count toward the canopy requirement. If they are not to
count toward the canopy requirement but are still proposed to be planted, permission to do so must be
granted from the open space parcel owner. Many of the plantings are still very close to proposed water
and sewer lines; ACSA approval will be required.
Also, it appears there is still one tree proposed directly on top of the drain pipe; please revise.
Duly Noted: Trees have been removed from 15' electric easement. Two plantings outside of parcel
boundary have been removed.

15. [32.6.2(k) &4.17] The quantity of light fixtures listed in the luminaire schedule does not match the plan. There
appear to be ten (10) C10 while 11 are listed, and there appear to be five (5) F5 while 4 are listed; please verify
and revise.
Rev1: Comment not addressed. The luminaire schedule now has quantity inaccuracies for fixtures G, H, I
and possibly F. There are 11 "F" labels on the plan, but one fixture seems to be within the building. Lumen
output must be provided for all proposed fixtures. Additionally, the labels listed for the fixtures in the
schedule seem to be incorrect. Please revise the labels, quantities, and lumen information in the schedule
and make sure each fixture is labeled properly on the plan itself. The cutsheet for fixture G should also
include the catalog number.
Duly Noted: Quantities have been updated. Cut sheet updated to include catalog number
16. [32.6.2(k) &4.17] Please clarify the exact location of the light poles for all pole mounted fixtures. The lighting
plan appears to show boxes that represent the pole bases right on the curb for the parking lot, while the landscape
and layout sheets have boxes that look like they might represent the poles, but are in different locations than the
boxes on the lighting plan. All three sheets should show the exact size and location of the pole base to verify that
no site conflicts exist. Additionally, if the poles are in the sidewalk around the parking lot, they should be located at
the end of parking stripes to minimize the chance of a vehicle running into it.
Rev1: Comment not fully addressed. The pole locations still aren't shown on the lighting plan; please
revise. Also, it looks like several site conflicts still exist; the poles seem to be proposed right in the edge
of the curb even extending beyond the curb, they are not at the ends of parking space stripes as
requested, and one is proposed on top of a storm drain pipe. Please resolve all light pole conflicts.
Duly Noted: The exact location of the light poles has been updated to reflect correctly on all sheets and
any conflicts have been resolved.
17. [32.6.2(k)&4.17] Provide the following standard lighting note on the lighting plan: Each outdoor luminaire
equipped with a lamp that emits 3,000 or more initial lumens shall be a full cutoff luminaire and shall be arranged
or shielded to reflect light away from adjoining residential districts and away from adjacent roads.
The spillover of lighting from luminaires onto public roads and property in residential or rural areas zoning districts
shall not exceed one-half footcandle.
Rev1: Comment addressed. However, it is difficult to tell but it appears that the 0.5 footcandle limit may be
exceeded in spots along the Belvedere Boulevard right-of-way; please verify that spillover at the edge of
the right-of-way is 0.5 footcandle or less.
Duly Noted: 0.5 Footcandle limits have been met along all boundary lines, verified to ensure there is no
spillover of 0.5 footcandles or more.
18. [Comment] Provide documentation of all off-site easements, including grading and any other necessary
easements.
Rev1: Comment not addressed. Easements will be required for: any work proposed within
Belvedere Boulevard, proposed construction within and the expansion of Colvin Alley, proposed
construction and installation of utilities and landscaping in the open space, and the proposed grading on
TMP 62A3-1 and anywhere else off-site. All easements must be approved and recorded prior to site plan
approval.
Duly Noted: Easements have been shown on plan. Additionally, easements are currently under review and
it was requested that the site plan be submitted along with the update to the easements so that they could be
reviewed concurrently to ensure the easements aligned with the revised plan.
19. [Comment] This site plan cannot be approved until ACSA completes their review and grants their approval;
comments will be forwarded upon receipt. Fire/Rescue, Engineering, and E911 comments have been provided.
Inspections and VDOT have completed their reviews and have no objection.

5. [32.5.2(b)] Please clarify how much parking is provided; the parking schedule lists 63 spaces, but the plan
appears to include 64 spaces.
Response: Duly Noted, parking count has been updated to state 64 spaces.
6. [32.5.2(b)]Verify the maximum amount of paved parking and vehicular circulation area;the exact same
number is provided as the previous plan,yet the parking layout has changed fairly significantly. If this number is
different, the landscape plan notes must be revised accordingly.
Response: Duly Noted, maximum amount of paved parking and vehicular circulation area has been

7. [32.5.2(i)&Code of Development] Please label the adjacent street and alley pavement and right-of-way or
easement widths.
Response: Duly Noted, easement, ROW, street and alleys have been labeled.
8. [32.5.2(k)]Verify that all necessary easements for proposed water, sewer and drainage facilities have been
shown on the plan.
Response: Duly Noted, easements have been verified.
9. [32.5.2(l)] Provide the location of any other existing or proposed utilities and utility easements including

11. [32.6.2(j)&32.7.9.6(a)] An area of at least five (5) percent of the paved parking and vehicular circulation
area shall be landscaped with trees or shrubs within or around the parking lot. As noted above,the square
footage of'paved parking and vehicular circulation area' should be verified. Please also clarify why a different
number is used for this area in the 5%calculation.Additionally,the 5% requirement refers to square footage of
planting space, not tree canopy (as provided on the plan submitted). Please provide all relevant information to
verify this requirement is satisfied.
Response: Duly Noted, numbers have been updated to reflect minimum 5% planting area (not tree
canopy calculations).
12. [32.6.2(j)&32.7.9.7] While screening of this building from the adjacent residential lots isn't technically
required, due to its scale you may want to consider ways to mitigate the visual impact.Something like small
islands in the hardscape next to the building to allow for vine plantings that will grow up the side of the building
and/or installation of evergreen shrubs in the parking islands and under the trees specified along the facade.

Response: Duly Noted, the trees are meant to mitigate the visual impact from the adjacent residential
lots.
13. [32.6.2(j)&32.7.9.8]The minimum tree canopy requirement is 10%; this use is not exempt from the tree
canopy requirement(please remove the note that states this). It appears that this requirement is met if the
street trees are included. However,the plant schedule lists 13 Cornus florida, but the plan appears to show 14;
please verify and revise.
Response: Duly Noted, Minimum tree canopy coverage is achieved by inclusion of street trees directly in
front of SOCA Fieldhouse on Belvedere BLVD as these are the only street trees located on property line.
Plant schedule has been updated to show correct plant count for Cornus florida.
14. [32.6.2(j)]Several of the proposed plantings appear to be within existing or proposed easements or have
utility conflicts; please either move all landscaping outside of easements or provide proof of authorization from
the easement holder.See the fire line and drain pipe next to the parking lot in particular.
Response: Duly Noted, plantings have been removed from easement areas.
15. [32.6.2(k)&4.17]The quantity of light fixtures listed in the luminaire schedule does not match the plan.
There appear to be ten (10) C10 while 11 are listed, and there appear to be five (5) F5 while 4 are listed; please
verify and revise.
Response: Duly Noted, light fixture list contained a typographical error that has been corrected,which
also corrected the quantity for both C and F fixtures to be off, which is also now correct.
16. [32.6.2(k)&4.17] Please clarify the exact location of the light poles for all pole mounted fixtures.The lighting
plan appears to show boxes that represent the pole bases right on the curb for the parking lot,while the
landscape and layout sheets have boxes that look like they might represent the poles, but are in different
locations than the boxes on the lighting plan.All three sheets should show the exact size and location of the pole
base to verify that no site conflicts exist.Additionally, if the poles are in the sidewalk around the parking lot,they
should be located at the end of parking stripes to minimize the chance of a vehicle running into it.
Response: Duly Noted, location of light poles has been updated to show correctly on all three sheets.
17. [32.6.2(k)&4.17] Provide the following standard lighting note on the lighting plan: Each outdoor luminaire
equipped with a lamp that emits 3,000 or more initial lumens shall be a full cutoff luminaire and shall be arranged
or shielded to reflect light away from adjoining residential districts and away from adjacent roads. The spillover
of lighting from luminaires onto public roads and property in residential or rural areas zoning districts shall not
exceed one-half footcandle.
Response: Duly Noted, note has been added to Lighting Plan sheet 09.
[Comment] Provide documentation of all off-site easements, including grading and any other necessary
easements.

Hi Chris,
I'm not in the office right now to see how many reviewers had comments on the previous
submittal, but you'll need to submit enough copies to cover all the reviewers that gave
comments plus one extra. There isn't a resubmit fee for the site plan. . .if you have a WPO
application (I can't remember off the top of my head) . . .I think they do have a fee, but
you'll need to contact the engineer to find out the amount.
Thanks - ellie

Ellie,
In addition, I forgot to mention something about the landscaping.They are proposing trees and/or bushes within the
vicinity of the water service line,fire line and sewer lateral.The ACSA does not have ownership or jurisdiction over these
lines (will be privately owned).The applicant may want to review the landscaping because this may create long term
maintenance issues on the private infrastructure.

Just add a note with t' : ZMA reference under "Zoning" that says "variations #15-18 and
