The County of Albemarle Planning Division will grant or recommend approval of the plat 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. [ZMA2015-07] Per note 8 on Sheet V1 - staff suggests revising the note so that it clarifies that once the second
parts of Block 16 and 17 are platted, the densities of each block will be within the 2-6 du/acre range permitted by
the COD. Perhaps a footnote clarifying that when the remaining portions of Blocks 16 and 17 are subdivided, the
overall density of each block will be between 2-6 du/acre. Staff can discuss specific wording with the applicant if
necessary. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
2. [ZMA2015-07] The table from Sheet 3 of the approved preliminary plat is not included on the final plat. Please
add the table and update each column as necessary to reflect the areas of each feature that have been approved in
Brookhill. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
3. [ZMA2015-07] The final plat does not specify which garage setback scenario is proposed for the detached lots.
Page 30 of the ZMA2015-7 Code of Development provides exhibits for how parking can be relegated on SFD lots.
Please provide a note or exhibit on the plat specifying which scenario will be used to meet the related parking
requirement. Please revise note 14 on Sheet V1 so that it clarifies which scenario will be used for the SFA lots. If
these units will have front loading garages, a note must be added to the plat stating that garages must be setback a
minimum of T from the front of each unit. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
4. [ZMA2015-07] A civic space is required in either Blocks 16, 17 or 18. Indicate on the plan which block these
amenities will be provided. Open space areas are shown on the plat, but it is unclear if these areas are intended to
meet the Eastern Park Civic Space #3 required by the Code of Development. Please provide a response as to
whether the civic space is going to be divided into 10,000 sq.ft. areas between Blocks 16-18, or if it will be
provided as one 30,000 sq.ft. area in one of the blocks. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
5. [14-302 (A)(3)] Please clarify the following related to new streets:
a. Is this plat intended to dedicate the right-of-way for Halsey Avenue? That right-of-way has not yet been
dedicated. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. ROW dedicated through SUB202100150.
b. [14-428] Please clearly identify the portions of the internal streets of Blocks 16 & 17 that will be
dedicated with this plat. For example, it is unclear if this plat is dedicating the full length of the ROW for
Sablewood Drive, Marcella Street, Marcella Court, and the southern cul-de-sac of Laconia Lane. Rev. 1:
Comment addressed. ROW dedicated through SUB202100150.
6. [14-302 (A)(4) and 14-302 (A)(5)] Please update all easement labels to state the recorded instrument number of
the plat creating easements in Blocks 16 and 17. These easements were recently approved through a separate
easement plat application, SUB202100065. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
WWW.ALBEMARLE.ORG
401 McIntire Road, North Wing, I Charlottesville, VA 22902-4579
7. [14-302 (A)(7)] Please clearly label the existing lot lines of the parent tract on Sheet V2. The parcel should be
labeled with the tax map parcel number, the existing acreage, and the deed book and page number of the most
recently recorded plat. Rev. 1: SUB202100150 has been approved. Please update the placeholder labels on all
applicable sheets with the recorded instrument information.
8. [14-303 (D) and 14-303 (F)] The area summary note on Sheet V1 states that the residue of TMP 46-18A2 is 0.0
acres. However, this plat is not subdividing the single-family detached lots that will be subdivided in both blocks
through a separate plat currently under review, SUB202100150. Please address the following:
a. Revise the area summary calculation so that it identifies the acreage of new lots, open space, and right-of-
way that will be platted with this plat. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
b. Currently, a final plat application, SUB202100150, is under review that proposes to create the single-
family detached lots in both blocks. If that plat is recorded prior to this plat, those lots will need to be
identified by their Tax Map Parcel numbers and recorded instrument information. Rev. 1: Comment
stands, please update all lot labels with TMP numbers and recorded instrument information.
c. Identify the residue portions of TMP 46-18A2 that will be subdivided through a separate plat
(SUB202100150). Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
d. Please add labels to Sheets V2-V4 stating that the lots 1-29 in Block 16 and lots 111-131 in Block 17 are
shown for reference only and will be subdivided through recordation of a separate plat (SUB202100150).
Rev. 1: Comment stands, please update all SFD lot labels with TMP numbers and recorded instrument
information.
e. As a reminder, the COD states that the total acreage (including greenspace areas located outside of private
lots) of Block 16 is 11.5 acres and Block 17 is 19.1 acres. The block acreages may be modified no more
than 15% of the acreage figures listed in Table 2 on page 6 of the COD. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
f. See comment #16 for further information. Rev. 1: See comment #16 below.
9. [14-303 (F)] Please revise the block boundary line on Sheets V2-V4 so that it clearly identifies the total limits of
both blocks. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
10. [14-302 (13)(1)] Please add a date of last revision. Rev. 1: Comment stands.
11. [14-311,14-410 & 14-411] Prior to final plat approval, road plans must be approved for these blocks that meet all
applicable public road standards and street standards from the Code of Development. Rev. 1: Comment
addressed.
12. [14-311 and 14-316] Prior to final plat approval, all VDOT comments must be addressed. Rev. 1: Comment
addressed.
13. [14-414] Prior to final plat approval, the applicant must obtain approval from ACSA. As of September 1, 2022,
ACSA review of this plat is not yet complete. Comments or approvals from ACSA will be forwarded to the
applicant upon receipt. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
14. [14-434, 14-435 & 14-435.1] Prior to final plat approval, all streets and other required improvements (such as
stormwater maintenance improvements) must be built or bonded. -Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
15. [ZMA2018-11] Proffer #2A states that a public easement needs to be granted over the greenway parcels prior to
issuance of the 500th Certificate of Occupancy for a dwelling within the project. The greenway parcel has been
subdivided and is identified as TMP 46-19139. Please provide a response as to when the developer intends to
provide the easement. Based on the County's dwelling unit tracking throughout approved blocks of Brookhill,
WWW.ALBEMARLE.ORG
401 McIntire Road, North Wing, I Charlottesville, VA 22902-4579
platting of these lots will bring the total approved number of lots above 500. Rev. 1: Per applicant comment
response letter, public easement will be conveyed through separate plat application.
16. [General Comment] Timing for approval and recordation of this plat and SUB202100150 should be carefully
monitored by the applicant. Whichever plat is approved first will require revisions to the other plat to identify
existing lot lines, acreages, TMP numbers, open space areas, dedicated right-of-ways, etc. Rev. 1: Comment
stands, please update all applicable labels (street right-of-ways, lots/TMP numbers) once the recorded instrument
number of SUB202100150 is known and update the plat as necessary. Be sure to update Note 22 on Sheet V3,
and the placeholder underneath the density chart on Sheet V3.
