RE: SUB2022-00196 Premier Circle Final Plat
phone:434-296-5832
www.albemarle.org
The Planner for the Planning Services Division of the Albemarle County Department of Community Development
will recommend approval of the plan referred to above when the following items 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 to the Albemarle County Code.]
1. [General Comment] The final site plan for TJACH Premier Circle (SDP2022-00046) must be approved prior to
approval of this final subdivision plat. Additional comments may be provided on the subdivision plat based on the
final layout and design of the approved site plan.
2. [General Comment] If the proposed easements are to remain on a separate plat, then an easement plat application
form needs to be completed and submitted, with the appropriate fees paid. Two different plats cannot be reviewed
under the same application.
The ACSA easements on the subdivision plat will need to be labelled with the appropriate instrument number if the
easement plat is to be recorded first.
Also, the stormwater management and drainage easements required by Engineering for approval of the WPO will
need to be included on one of the plats.
(It may be helpful to have a meeting with staff (to include Planning and Engineering) so that staff can get a good
understanding of what you all would like to accomplish and in what order, so that we can advise on the simplest
path forward.)
3. [14-302(A)14 and 14-303(D)] The section on the cover sheet about density, units, and open space should be
removed. That section is more relevant to the site plan than to the subdivision plat.
4. [34-302(B)1] General Information. Provide the date of last revision of the plat on all future submittals.
5. [34-302(B)8] Yards. The labels on sheet 2 identifying blocks land 2 are flipped from what the approved application
plan states. The front parcel along Route 29 should be Block 1, and the two rear parcels should be block 2.
However, it appears that the required setbacks are listed correctly on the cover sheet.
Under Block 2, the requirement for a 50' minimum setback/no maximum setback along the UDA boundary needs
to be listed (see page 7 of the Code of Development).
In addition, in the Block 2 setbacks, the rear and side numbers are flipped. There is a 5' rear minimum setback, and
the 0' minimum setback is for the side yards.
Easement Plat Comments
1. The cover sheet of the subdivision plat needs to be duplicated and added to the easement plat, with all the required
notes, signature lines, and notary spaces. However, the setbacks and lot tabulation are not required to be listed,
since new fee simple lots are not being created with the easement plat. (Of course, the name of the plat would also
be different, indicating it as an easement plat and not a subdivision plat, as well as any other appropriate changes,
e.g., under the owner's statement.)
For a full list of the requirements, see the attached easement plat application. This form needs to be filled out and
submitted with the next submittal. The appropriate fee is $246.48 (easement plat required with a site plan).
Also see comment number 2 above about meeting with staff regarding this process.
