Engineering can recommend approval to the plan once the following comments have been addressed. 1. This plat cannot be signed by the county until all necessary bonds have been posted. Bonds will be required for ESC, SWM, landscaping (buffer), water and sewer, and road and drainage plans. The applicant has provided the Bond Estimate Request Form to the county. Staff will provide all estimates once the plans are approved. In order for the road, water, and sewer bonds to be posted, a Schedule of Completion must be approved by the County Engineer. 2. Please label the easement for Allyn Alley as "alley easement" per 14- 303.E. 3. The County Planner will likely ask for maintenance agreement for Allyn Alley. 4. Please label the private drainage easement within the Allyn Alley Easement. I recommend changing the styles or weight of each particular easement line (alley, swm, drainage, sight, ACSA, etc.) so they are easier to follow when in close proximity. The 2 °d half of this comment is not a requirement. 5. Please label the intended ownership of all common areas per 14- 303.G. 6. Note 19 on the cover sheet appears to be the temporary turnaround note stipulated in 14 -303.K of the subdivision ordinance. However, no temporary turnarounds are shown on the plat. No temporary turnarounds are needed since the plat is not phased. Lastly, the road names referred to in this note are incorrect. As the plat is currently drawn, this note should be removed. 7. As already identified by Andy Slack, the county employee who manages the road naming system, Henry Drive must be replaced with an acceptable road name. [14- 303.M] 8. The applicant has included on the cover sheet the private street note of 14 -303.N despite the fact that all streets within the plan will be public. Please either remove this note or specifically refer to Allyn Alley by starting the note with "Allyn Alley may not..." 9. The construction plan calls for grading all over TMP- 56 -91. This owner will either need to be on the WPO bond or a construction /grading easement to allow the work proposed in this plan will need to be recorded. I would recommend adding a note to this plat stating that all work necessary to carry out the Wickham Pond Phase H Block 1 construction set (SUB- 2009 -00062 and WPO- 2010- 00058) is authorized by Barnes - Crozet LLC. 10. Additional ROW appears to be needed on TMP 56J -1 -1 and TMP 56J -A. This dedication must occur prior to the approval of this plat or be included on it. A drainage easement also appears to be necessary of TMP 56J -1 -1. 11. Please replace "Variable Width Storm Sewer Easement" on Sheet 2 with "Privately Maintained Variable Width Stormwater Management Easement ". 12. Please add "Public" to the 15' Access Easement notation on Sheet 2. 13. On Sheet 2, there is a notation stating that 0.257 acres of ROW is being dedicated with this plat, but this number appears to be too low. Please clarify. 14. On Sheet 3, Please replace "Variable Width Storm Sewer Easement" with "Variable Width Stormwater Management Access Easement ". This should be centered on the road, not the ditch. An easement is not needed on the ditch since it only drains two lots. If the applicant prefers that it be placed in an easement, please call the easement out as private. 15. Note 15 of the cover sheet states that all drainage easements shown on the plat are to be dedicated to public use. At the beginning of this note, please add "unless otherwise specified" so that the private easements (the private drainage easement along Allyn Alley and the easement adjacent to the access path to the stormwater facility on sheet) are excluded. Please also use the same notation when referring to Storm Sewer/Drainage Easements on the plat and Note 15 on the cover sheet. I do not think it makes a difference which you use as long as it is consistently throughout, though the County Attorney's office could correct me (please see the following comment). 16. A Deed of Easement will need to be recorded with the plat. Please contact the County Attorney Office for the latest copy of the Deed of Easement template for drainage easements. The language within the deed must match the language shown on the plat for drainage (or storm sewer) easements. The County Attorney's Office will need to approve the deed of easement prior to Community Development approval of the plat. 17. The construction plan has not received final approval yet. The final plat should not be technically approved until the construction set has received final approval. Additional comments to this plat may be necessary due to changes to construction plans.
