To: Gerald Gatobu, Current Development Project Planner
From: Phil Custer, Current Development engineering review
Date: 16 February 2011
Subject: West Village Preliminary Site Plan (SDP- 2010 - 00035)
The third revision to the preliminary site plan for West Village, received 11 February 2011, has been
reviewed. I feel the plan has reached a point that preliminary approval can be granted with conditions. I
have one or two remaining technical concerns with the current plan which I will list as conditions below
along with the normal conditional engineering items required for final site plan approval:
• The setback to the Block B townhomes is not drawn correctly. The setback must be drawn from
the edge of the 20ft access easement, as required per 18- 4.6.3.d. As drawn, this modification will
not affect the building placement.
• A screening fence, also to be approved by the planner for Current Development, is to be provided
at the top of the retaining wall adjacent to the properties to the north
• Approval of all engineering site and road plan requirements and policies [DM, 18 -32.5, 18 -32.6]
• Approval of an Erosion and Sediment Control Plan meeting all state and local standards that
requires no fill within the floodplain [Chapter 17 -WPO, VESCH]
• Payment of the Lickinghole Basin Fee [17 -316]
• Continuation of Low - Impact Development strategties, so that the detention waiver provided by the
County Engineer is still valid, and providing an adequate channel to the perennial stream from
each concentrated discharge point [17 -314]
All other aspects of the preliminary plan as drawn are acceptable and the applicant will be expected to
maintain critical elements (such as the alignment of the roadway, addition of the sidewalk and curbing
along Blue Ridge Ave., etc.) when the final plan is submitted for review.
