Subject: SDP - 2011 -078 and SUB2011 -134- Old Trail Block 11- Preliminary Site Plan and
Plat
The Planner for the Zoning & Current Development Division of the Albemarle County
Department Community Development will recommend approve the plan referred to above when
the following items have been satisfactorily addressed. (The following comments are those that
have been identified at this time. Additional comments or conditions may be added or eliminated
based on further review.) [Each comment is preceded by the applicable reference to the
Albemarle County Code.]
1. [Code of Development- Old Trail General Zone CT4 and CT5 Illustration] Block 11 is in
section CT4, which does not allow units to have frontage on greenspaces. Revise the
layout to meet frontage requirements.
2. [32.5.6 (b); Code of Development- Page 30] The maximum lot coverage for this block is
60 %. Lots 10, 13, 16, 18, 20 and 38 do not meet this requirement. Revise to meet this
requirement.
3. [Rezoning Application Plan- Street Sections] The internal road right of way width must
be 24 feet. Revise to meet this requirement.
4. [32.5.6(a)] Include the proffers in the set.
5. [32.5.6 (n)] Provide the dimensions and paving materials for all walks, parking lots, and
driveways.
6. [32.5.6 (b)] The rear setback must be taken from the edge of easement/ right of way, not
the edge of pavement. Revise to meet this requirement.
7. [32.5.6(a)] Indicate which units will be affordable on the plan sheet.
8. [32.5.6 (b)] On the cover sheet it states that each unit will have garage parking, however
it is not clear on the plan if the units will be housing the cars. Please clarify that the
parking will be in garages, otherwise the driveways will need to be 18 feet deep
minimum.
Response to Variation Request:
1. The variation is under review. Staff will provide an approval letter that will state that the
rear setback can be reduced when a deck is proposed. The deck will still need to meet the
requirements of Section 4.11.1. This will be forthcoming.
