The following comments are those that have been identified at this time. Comments may be added or eliminated based on further review. [Each comment is preceded by the applicable reference to the Albemarle County Code, unless otherwise specified.] 1. [32.5.6a] Date and description of last revision. o Add a revised date and accompanying description with each re- submittal. 2. [32.5.6b/4.12/4.12.101 Schedule of parking. Provide a copy of a permanent shared parking agreement with the Ivy Fire Station for review and approval by Planning /Zoning /the County Attorney's Office. The current parking schedule may need to be revised. The parking required vs. parking provided may also need to be revised, depending on review of the shared parking agreement. Revision #1: This shared parking agreement will be required for the Ivy Fire Station site on the adjacent property, but the parking provided (90) compared to the parking required (85) is satisfactory. See memo from Ron Lilley dated April 23, 2012. 3. [32.5.6e/32.7.9.4.64.3] Existing landscape features. o Field review on April 4, 2012 indicates that existing landscape features are not shown correctly. Show the existing treelines as they currently exist. Specify which specific trees will be removed and which trees will replace those trees. The tree save limits and the limits of clearing and grading appear to be in conflict. Revise. 4. [32.7.9.4] Landscape Plan. o Once existing landscape features are shown correctly, the landscape plan may require an update and revisions. 5. [32.5.6s] The agent ... may require additional information ... as deemed necessary ... 1. On the Ivy Fire Station site plan amendment, SDP - 2012 -015, development encroaches on the Korean Community Church property. Easements are shown on the Korean Community Church property that do not appear to have been recorded. The Ivy Fire Station project team must do the following: If the construction easement is existing, provide the deed book and page number. If the construction easement is proposed: submit an easement plat that includes the variable width construction easement and any other necessary easements for review and approval prior to approval of the minor site plan amendment. Submit an accompanying deed of easement for review and approval by the County Attorney, which has to be recorded. Please discuss whether the Korean Community Church wishes to grant the construction easement to the Ivy Fire Station and coordinate the two projects as necessary. See memo from Ron Lilley dated April 23, 2012. 2. Parking spaces and a retaining wall are proposed on the Ivy Fire Station projects that encroach partially on the Korean Community Church property. Permission must be granted by the Korean Community Church property owners, if desired. The Ivy Fire Station project team must obtain the necessary easements for this area and include this information on the easement plat and deeds of easement required above. Please discuss whether the Korean Community Church wishes to allow parking and a retaining wall for the Ivy Fire Station, on its property. It appears that the location of the proposed freestanding Korean Community Church sign and decorative entrance feature coincides with and is in direct conflict with the plan proposed by the Ivy Fire Station project team. See memo from Ron Lilley dated April 23, 2012. The site design for the two projects must match. Otherwise, further amendments will be required. This minor site plan amendment, SDP - 2012 -015, is the third on this tax map and parcel. Any future amendments will require a major amendment and/or new final site plan as applicable. It has been determined that the Korean Community Church will be permitted to have a 4th minor amendment for the changes associated with the Ivy Fire Station site. See memo from Ron Lilley dated April 23, 2012. 4. Update the cover sheet. The information from SDP - 2011 -034 is left over from the previous project. Revise the portion of the plan title, "Site Plan Amendment (SDP 2011 - 00034) (Amendment to SDP 2007 - 00031)" to contain the current information for the new minor site amendment. Has the proposed 10' RWSA easement been previously reviewed and approved? This and any other easements proposed may require an easement plat to be reviewed and approved by Albemarle County as well as a deed of easement to be reviewed and approved by the County Attorney's office. It is unclear whether the various easements shown are recorded and existing, or proposed. Provide the deed book and page number for all easements, or submit an easement plat. Also, RWSA has indicated that they are working directly with the applicant regarding the proposed 10' RWSA easement. Additional follow -up may need to occur with the County. Revision #1: RWSA is working directly with the applicant regarding the proposed 10' RWSA easement. County review does not appear to be necessary, but this easement must be approved and recorded before this minor amendment may be approved. Who is the beneficiary of the 20' storm drain easement? Submit an easement plat to be reviewed and approved by Albemarle County as well as a deed of easement to be reviewed and approved by the County Attorney's office. 6. Please move the text that is currently directly underneath "chain link fence barrier ". 7. If the main building shown as "proposed" currently exists, please remove "prop." Do the same for any other "proposed" site features that already exist. 5. [4.2] Critical Slopes. o Show and update the area of critical slopes being disturbed. Demonstrate that critical slopes disturbance remains identical to the areas shown on SDP - 2011 -034, which were previously approved. If additional critical slopes are disturbed, Board of Supervisors review and approval will be required. The amount of critical slopes disturbed appears to be identical to SDP - 2011 -034. No additional disturbance is anticipated or permitted. 6. [4.17] Lighting Plan. o Provide manufacturer's cut sheets for the lighting proposed. o Provide a luminaire schedule. o Update the lighting plan, including the photometric plan, to reflect the proposed minor amendments, as applicable.
