Subject: SDP 2009 -43 Red Lobster at Fashion Square Mall- Preliminary
The Planner/Engineer for the Zoning & Current Development Division of the Albemarle County
Department Community Development will recommend approve 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. [32.5.6.a] COMMENT: Please graphically show the limits of parking and building
setback lines, and be sure to show the parking setback lines on the landscape plan as well.
2. [32.5.6.n] COMMENT: The grading plan appears to show a step down from the
walkways and the parking; please clarify this and show a proposed curb.
3. [32.5.6.p] COMMENT: Because trees and shrubs are to remain on the site, a
Conservation Checklist is required to be completed and signed and provided on the
landscape plan. The checklist is available online at:
hqp://www.albemarle.oriz/upload/imaaes/forins center /departments /community develop
ment / forms / applications /Checklist_ Conservation_Plan.pdf
4. [32.5.6.b] COMMENT: Even though this information is already provided on the
landscaping sheet, please also provide the parking/ vehicular circulation paved area data
on Sheet C3.1 under Site Data.
5. [32.7.9.7] COMMENT: Item #1 on the plan currently states "Landscaping area greatly
exceeds 2,483 SF," and this may be, but please provide the square footage of landscaped
area that is provided.
6. [32.5.6.f] COMMENT: Per ordinance requirements, please provide a note on the plan as
to whether this property is within a water supply protection area. (It is not.)
7. [32.5.6.b] COMMENT: Please provide maximum square footage information in this
plan set.
8. [4.1.2.6] COMMENT: On sheet C3.2: please provide "required" mall parking figures, as
we must ensure that the removal of this parking from the available mall parking stock
does not reduce the mall parking below that which is required. Otherwise, a reciprocal
parking agreement may be required.
9. [4.1.2.6] COMMENT: Please clarify the ** note provided on Sheet C1.2 in the
Zoning /parking box. It references how parking was calculated based on employees,
therefore handicap parking cannot be calculated; however sheet C3.1 calculates parking
by GSF.
10. [4.2] COMMENT: Per note on C2.2, it appears the disturbance of critical slopes is
proposed. Graphically show all critical slopes on the property, and delineate the area of
proposed disturbance. In accordance with 4.2.5, a Critical Slopes Waiver request is
required.
11. COMMENT: Please note that Summer Frederick is not the County Zoning contact for
this project. Please change Zoning to Current Development and Summer Frederick to
Elizabeth Marotta at ext. 3432.
Please contact Elizabeth M. Marotta at the Department of Community Development 296 -5832
ext. 3432 for further information.
