RE: SUB- 2011 -26 Glenmore Section K2B — Preliminary Plat
Dear Sir:
The Department of Community Development hereby grants administrative approval to the above referenced
preliminary subdivision plat.
The preliminary plat is valid for five (5) years from the date it is approved pursuant to Section 14 -228 of
Chapter 14 of the Albemarle County Code, provided that the subdivider submits a final plat for all or a portion
of the property within one (1) year (05/10/2012) of the approval as provided in section 14 -221, and thereafter
diligently pursues approval of the final plat. After three (3) years (05/10/14) following preliminary plat
approval, the agent may, after ninety (90) days' written notice provided by certified mail to the subdivider,
revoke the approval upon a specific finding of facts that the subdivider failed to diligently pursue approval of the
final plat. The failure to officially submit a final plat as provided in section 14 -221 within the one (1) year
period shall render the approval of the preliminary plat null and a new application must be filed and processed.
Please address all of the requirements and conditions listed below and submit eight (8) tentative plat copies to
the Department of Community Development. This letter must be submitted with the tentative plats, as a
checklist, to document that you have addressed all requirements or conditions, or the tentative plat will be
denied.
Erosion and Sediment Control, BMP Stormwater Management, and road plans with the associated applications
and fees must also be submitted with the eight (8) tentative Plats.
Once the tentative plan is submitted and reviewed you will receive comments from all
departments /divisions /agencies that have made comment on the tentative plan. Any further responses
must be made directly to each department /division/agency that has further comment. After all
aforementioned departments /divisions /agencies have granted a tentative approval, you must verify with
the Planner that you may submit the final plat mylar or other media original the final plat application,
any remaining fees to the Department of Community Development. Assuming that the final plat reflects
all tentative approvals, signing of the plat will occur within four days.
The final plat will be subject to all final plat requirements (Subdivision Ordinance Section 14.206), in addition
to the following conditions.
The Department of Community Development shall not accept submittal of the final plat for signature until
tentative approvals for the following conditions have been obtained. The final plat shall not be signed until the
following conditions are met:
ZoninLy & Current Development approval to include:
❑ ZMA 2006 -00016 Glenmore, Section K2, Leake Property, proffers must be satisfied before
final plat approval is granted.
❑ Please include a running tally of the number of lots in the Leake section of Glenmore. The
rezoning approved 110 residential lots for this area. With eight (8) lots being subdivided,
only 102 lots can be created. Refer to ZMA 2006 -16 for guidance.
❑ The plat shall be subject to all requirements of Section 14 -303 (Contents of Final Plat), as
identified on the "Final Subdivision Checklist" available at the Department of Community
Development.
❑ The perimeter road at Carroll Creek near the Sewage Treatment Plant must be built or
bonded prior to final plat approval. Please see the attached letter from Amelia McCulley
(Zoning Administrator) to J Alden English (McGuire Woods LLP) dated May 26, 2010.
The letter establishes a timeline for completion of construction of this road segment.
Please contact Gerald Gatobu at 434 - 296 -5832 ext 3385 if you have questions or require additional information.
Engineering approval to include:
❑ Not all critical slopes have been shaded. On the front sheet for the final plat, please
provide a table of all non - exempt critical slope disturbance so that total critical slope
disturbance can be tracked.
❑ The sewer manhole on the boundary of lots 7 and 8 must be moved —20ft uphill so that the
new stream buffer is not disturbed.
❑ The sewer manhole in lot 2 must be moved 50ft to the south to avoid unnecessary critical
slope disturbance or include this disturbance in the note referenced in engineering
condition 1.
❑ Per the Zoning Administrator's determination, the crossing of Carroll Creek must occur
when these 8 lots are platted. The plans for the Special Use Permit for the fill in the
floodplain, erosion and sediment control, road construction, stream buffer mitigation, and
stormwater management for this work must be approved and bonded prior to the signing
of the final plat.
❑ An erosion and sediment control plan for the disturbance to construct the sewer line,
perform all lot grading, and erect all houses must be approved prior to final plat approval.
An amendment to the existing Erosion and Sediment Control Plan (WPO- 2008 -0036)
seems like the easiest way to meet this condition. Agreement in lieu of plans will not be
relied on for the construction of these 8 lots.
❑ A Stormwater Management Plan for the new imperviousness added by this plan must be
approved prior to final plat approval. The preliminary plat simply showed the addition of
stream buffer on the intermittent stream at the rear of these lots. This is not sufficient. I
have provided a sketch of a stormwater management concept that would be acceptable
that requires the front half of each house and all of the driveways to drain to the ditch on
Carroll Creek Road in addition to the platting of the stream buffer. Siofilters 6 and 8
would then need to be upgraded due to the increased impervious areas. Otherwise, a
facility along the stream and army corps approval will be necessary.
Please contact Philip Custer at 434 - 296 -5832 ext 3072 if you have questions or require additional information.
Albemarle County Service Authority approval to include:
❑ The Albemarle County Service Authority (ACSA) has no technical comments on the SUB
being reviewed. Engineering comments are usually reserved for the site plan review stage.
Subdivision plats should correctly show ownership of properties and existing easements.
Recordation of new easements should occur before dedication to and acceptance by the ACSA.
The ACSA can review the proposed subdivision plat and determine if it is included in the
jurisdictional area for water and/or sewer service. Water and/or sewer connections to the ACSA
system are allotted on a first come, first served basis at the time connection fees are paid. The .
ACSA does not reserve capacity in its system for a specific project.
Please contact Alex Morrison at 434 - 977 -4511 if you have questions or require additional information.
Fire & Rescue approval to include:
❑ Must comply with the Virginia Statewide Fire Prevention Code. Final approval is subject
to field inspection and verification.
Please contact James Barber at 434 - 296 -5833 if you have questions or require additional information.
