NO
We actually had staff out at Kingdom Hall this morning reviewing the entrance. Engineering feels they can support the
waiver request so long as clear sight distance is maintained in either direction along Lynchburg Road. It is possible that
a proposed retaining wall may interfere with this and we will check that once your plans are resubmitted. The other
consideration we request is some "traffic guidance" within the parking lot immediately inside the entrance. The existing
lot and a proposed lot converge just past the proposed entrance island, and there is potential for traffic conflicts in this
area. The details of required traffic guidance (signs or striping) will be reviewed once you resubmit plans. If these two
considerations are accommodated in your next plan submittal, Engineering will recommend that the Zoning Administrator
approve the waiver request.
To download the County topo, go to the website www.albemarle.org, under the Services menu, click on GIS /Mapping,
then GIS Data, I AGREE on disclaimer, then Elevation, and then the correct format file under Topography (Y2007
Elevation Data).
Please let me know if you have further questions.
