STAFF COMMENT:
The Virginia Department of Highways & Transportation
recommends that the road be built to state standards to
provide for possible future dedication to secondary system.
Sight distance to the southof the entrance is less than
the 250 ' that would be acceptable. A sight distance easement
would be necessary to assure that the area is kept properly
cleared.
The County Engineer recommends the road be constructed as
a public road.
***The applicant is requesting that the Planning Commission
waive Section 18-36 (d) of the private road provisions of
the Subdivision Ordinance which states, "any lot fronting
on any such road (private road) shall enter only onto
such road and have no immediate access to any public road. "
The applicant proposes a joint entrance off Rt. 682 to
serve lots three and four. The proposed entrance location

the potential house sites outlined in the soil scientist

The Subdivision Ordinance requires private roads serving
six or more lots shall be treated with prime and double
seal .
