Subject: SUB 2008 — 00283 Ashcroft Section VI phase II Final.
The County of Albemarle Division of Zoning and Current Development will grant or recommend
approval of the final subdivision plat referred to 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. [14- 302(A)2] Vicinity map. A map at a scale of one (1) inch equal to two thousand (2,000) feet
showing the property and its relationship with adjoining land and streets, its relationship with
landmarks in the area and, if the subdivision is a phased subdivision, all other phases of the
subdivision for which a final plat has been approved, in detail adequate to describe the location of
the property without field review. Clearly delineate Tax Map and Parcel 78A Parcel 1 on the
Vicinity Map. It is difficult to distinguish the parcel where the subdivision is going to take
place with what is currently shown on the vicinity map. (Please refer to the Albemarle
County GIS web for guidance)
2. [14- 302(A)3] Private easements. The location and dimensions of all existing and proposed private
easements. Existing easements shall be labeled with the deed book and page number and the name
of the owner of record. Please make sure that all existing private easements are labeled with
the deed book and page number and the name and owner of record. Summit Ridge Pointe is
labeled as an existing 50' private road and utility easement, but has no deed book and page
number and no owner of record.
3. [14- 302(A)4] Public easements. The location and dimensions of all existing and proposed public
easements. Existing easements shall be labeled with the deed book and page number and the name
of the owner of record. Any proposed public drainage easements should be labeled with the deed
book and page number and owner of record.
4. [14- 302(A)15] Please provide the names and addresses of each owner of record and holders of any
easements affecting the property. The address of the owner(s) of record is missing from the
plat.
5. [14- 303.E] Dimension standards and information on all lots, streets, alleys, easements, and
shared driveways. Easements shown for private streets, alleys and shared driveways shall be
labeled as "private street easement ", "alley easement" or "shared driveway easement." The
easement holder(s) shall be identified on the plat. Summit Ridge Pointe is labeled as an existing
50' private road and utility easement, but has no deed book and page number and owner of
record.
6. [14- 303.L] Public utility, drainage and sight distance easements. The location and dimensions of
each public utility, drainage and sight distance easement outside of a street right -of -way; for each
existing easement, include a note stating the deed book and page number. 20' Drainage easements
per approved plan and profile by Huffman and Associates has no deed book and page number.
7. [14- 303.5] Control points. Please provide at least four (4) control points, evenly distributed
across the property and located at survey property corners, and shown on each sheet depicting the
property. At the option of the subdivider, the control points may be shown on a copy of the final
plat, rather than on the original final plat.
8. [ 14 -317] if the subdivision will contain one (1) or more improvements that are not to be maintained
by the county or any authority or other public agency, the subdivider shall submit with the final
plat an instrument assuring the perpetual maintenance of the improvement. Please submit a road
maintenance agreement that will assure perpetual maintenance of the proposed private
road(s).
9. [14 -431] please note that easements for facilities for stormwater management and drainage control
must be shown on the subdivision plat or on a separate easement plat.
10. [14 -435] Surety in lieu of completion of on -site improvements. Please note that the proposed private
road(s) must be built or bonded prior to final subdivision plat approval.
11. [ZMA 80 -031 Please indicate the total number of lots in Ashcroft (excluding any sections, such as
Phase IV, that are not part of the originally PRD zoned area) in order to verify that the total number
of 228 total lots referenced in proffer #2 has not been exceeded.
12. [ZMA 80 -031 Similarly to comment #2, please indicate the total area of open space in Ashcroft
(again excluding any parts not include in the original PRD). Proffer #2 requires a minimum of 25%
of the total area, and a minimum aggregate total that will ultimately be 170 acres. Consider adding
0.001 percent of an acre to the open space and reducing the total area by 0.001 to get 25% open
space. The calculation currently falls short of the required 25 %.
13. [ZMA 80 -031 Proffer #6 indicates that the tree clearing for each lot is subject to Planning
Commission review. I can find no evidence that this proffer has been amended. Thus, I anticipate
that this proposal will require a review by the Planning Commission. There is no clearing shown on
this plat. Please indicate ultimate clearing limits for purposes of compliance with this proffer.
14. [ZMA 80 -031 Proffer #3 and Section 4.2 of the Zoning Ordinance prohibit disturbance of critical
slopes. Please show areas of critical slopes so that we can determine that designated building sites,
are not within the critical slopes. If building sites are in areas with critical slopes, a critical slopes
waiver (granted by the Planning Commission) will be required.
