RE: SDP2013 -003 Fifth Street Avon- Preapplication Plan
Mr. Hines:
Your preapplication submittal has been reviewed and comments are provided below. These comments do
not constitute a final review of your project. The Agent has made a good faith effort to determine
compliance with the requirements of Chapter 18 of the Code of the County of Albemarle, and to identify
all deficiencies. It is possible that during the formal review of your application that additional comments
may be generated. Failure to identify a deficiency during preapplication review does not relieve the
project from compliance with Chapter 18 of the Code.
In accord with the provisions of Section 32.4.1.4 of Chapter 18 of the Code of the County of Albemarle
the agent has reviewed the above referenced preapplication plan and has the following comments:
