Please note that the clear zone easement that is shown on the plans needs to be included on the plat and deeded to public use for maintenance of the clear zone in accordance with the Clear Zone Guidelines in the current version of VDOT's Road Design Manual. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks Joel Joel DeNunzio, P.E. Staff Engineer 434 - 293 -0011 Ext. 120 ioel.denunzio @vdot.virginia.gov From: Denunzio, Joel D., P.E. Sent: Thursday, November 13, 2008 1:20 PM To: 'Megan Yaniglos' Subject: SDP - 2008 -124 Whitehouse Commercial - Final site Plan SDP - 2008 -124 Whitehouse Commercial - Final site Plan Megan, I have reviewed the above plan and have the following comments: Trip generation number need to be added to the plan. 2. Sight distances need to be shown at the entrance along Olympia Drive. Any sight lines that fall outside of the proposed Public Right of Way must be within a sight easement. The proper method of showing sight lines on the plan is described in the VDOT Road Design Manual Appendix B, page B -12. 3. According to the lateral setback requirements stated in VDOT's Road Design Manual, appendix A, page A- 16, the minimum setback for the clear zone for roads of 45 mph and less is to be 8 feet or the back of the 8/4/2009 SDP - 2008 -124 Whitehouse Commercial - Final site Plan Page 2 of 2 sidewalk, whichever is greater. The proposed street trees are within this clear zone and need to be removed. A clear zone easement should be provided for the minimum setback according to these requirements. Street trees are only permitted with the 3 foot offset when the design speed of the road is 20 mph or less. I would recommend placing the trees behind the sidewalk and providing the clear zone easement. If you have any questions, please let me know. Thanks, Joel Joel DeNunzio, P.E.
