The minor amendment to 1575 State Farm Blvd., received on 28 May 2008, has been reviewed. The plans
can be approved after the following comments have been addressed.
1. Is the existing sidewalk from the existing handicap ramp to be removed? Are the existing
handicap spaces and ramp on the south side of the building to be replaced with regular spaces?
2. Please label curb -type on the plan.
3. Engineering review has concerns regarding the handicap parking area meeting the County's
Safe and Convenient access requirements. For 3 of the 4 handicap spaces, backing out from
the spaces maybe problematic. Engineering review would prefer to see an alternate parking
scheme but would approve a plan if 5ft turnaround area on the northeastern curbline was
provided to assist with the backing out of the parking spaces. Please also show the loft
parking lot buffer where necessary. [18- 21.7.1]
4. The curbline adjacent to the handicap spaces with the 8ft wide striped must be straight and
perpendicular to the painted lines. The alignment as shown is curvilinear parking which is not
allowable for this location.
5. Please label the entrance as a VDOT standard designation. Please show grading of the
proposed Willis Drive as well to confirm that with the new road an appropriate landing is
created. It appears additional modifications to the entrance grading will also be required.
Please also label the curb radii at the entrance. [DM]
6. Please show traffic control signs on the plan.
7. This plan must have an approved ESC plan. Please expand the limits and provide the
measures in the Martha Jefferson Hospital ESC Phase III plan (WPO- 2008 - 00004).
Please contact me at (434)296 -5832 ext. 3072 should you have any questions.
