RE: ZMA & SP Number Pending — Dickerson Road Manufactured Home Park
Request for Central Water Supply and Central Sewerage System Sec. 16-102
Dear Ms. Borgersen,
Chapter 16 Article I of the Albemarle County Code outlines the procedures for the establishment of a
central water supply and central sewerage system. In conjunction with the review of the zoning map
amendment and special use permit request, we, on behalf of Evergreen Home Builders LLC (the
"owner") request permission to construct a central water supply and central sewerage system for TMP
02000-00-00-019D0, 02000-00-00-019E0, and 02100-00-00-013AO (the "property"). The property is
currently zoned RA Rural Areas and the owner seeks a rezoning to R-6 Residential, with a special use
permit request to establish a manufactured home park. The central water meter would serve up to 66
dwelling units, connecting to the existing water line in Dickerson Road; the central sewerage system
would consist of 66 connections comprised of private laterals on -site that would ultimately connect to a
new public manhole and public main tying into an existing nearby public sanitary manhole.
In accordance with Sec. 16-102, please consider this request the required notice for this proposal to
establish a central water supply and central sewerage system.
Location:
The central water supply will be located on TMP 02000-00-00-019D0, 02000-00-00-019E0, and 02100-
00-00-013A0 for water service to each manufactured home lot. The water meter serving the property
would be located near the Dickerson Road entrance, adjacent to the existing water line.
The central sewerage system will be located on TMP 02000-00-00-019D0, 02000-00-00-019E0, and
02100-00-00-013AO for sanitary service to each manufactured home lot. The private sewer laterals from
the home lots would converge sanitary pipe that would ultimately connect to an existing nearby ACSA
sanitary manhole located across Dickerson Road.
Connection Numbers:
The central water supply and central sewerage system would serve up to 66 manufactured home lots
Statement of Central Sewerage System Proposal and Description:
The central sewerage system proposed consists of a system of 4"-8" sewer laterals from structures on
each of the proposed manufactured home lots, which would connect to an 8" sanitary sewer pipe, that
would ultimately connect to an ACSA manhole. A sanitary easement exists on the Emerson parcel, tax
parcel 02100-00-00-01400, per Deed of Easement Instrument #202200011318, recorded in the Albemarle
County Courthouse and the proposed public sewer main extension from the subject property to an
existing nearby ACSA manhole would be constructed within that existing easement on the Emerson
parcel.

A central sewer request is being pursued because it is practical for this site to be served by a system of
private sanitary laterals due to the proposed use of manufactured homes that would remain unsubdivided.
The private connections to serve the manufactured home park would provide necessary sewer functions
on -site.
Statement of Central Water Supply Proposal and Description:
The central water system proposed consists of a system of water service lines from structures on each of
the manufactured home lots, which would connect to a 6" waterline to the central water meter on -site.
The central water meter would be served by the existing waterline in Dickerson Road. As discussed with
the sanitary design, the nature of the manufactured home park lends itself to utility design that is owned
and maintained by one entity within the property, with an external public connection. Because the
property would remain unsubdivided, it would be more practical for the property owner to own and
maintain the individual private water service lines on -site, that collectively extend to a public water
connection.
Regards,
Justin Shimp
