Subject: SP200800032 Central Virginia Recycling Center
I have reviewed the above reference application and offer the following comments:
1. This use will require a site plan.
2. I have done no review of the potential subdivision. Any request to divide will be reviewed under the
ordinance in effect at the time of the proposed division. Information placed on the application plan
referencing development rights has not been verified.
3. Screening (adjacent to TMP 94-21K) appears to be proposed. No species types have been shown.
However, it appears that with appropriate species selection adequate area exists to meet the minimum
screening requirements of the ordinance (reference 32.7.9.8(a)). The applicant's information, dated
November 17, 2008, page 5, item 11 indicates that screening will be provided. Current Development
will require screening meeting the minimum requirements of the ordinance. If screening in excess of
those requirements is proposed it should be either be clearly shown on the plan or described in the
conditions.
4. No fuel storage or equipment repair area is shown on the plan. Current Development will require this
information at the time of site plan review. Appropriate spill containment will be required.
5. Surface area and design standards for parking and access cannot be determined at this level of detail. If
the applicant does not propose to meet the requirements of Section 4.12.15 and 4.12.19 they should
submit the modification request for consideration during the Special Use Permit review process.
Modifications are reviewed as described in 4.12.2(c).
6. The applicant's response letter dated November 17, 2008 attributes comments on page 8 to me. I believe
those comments were made by Ron Higgins. They were not made by me.
