Perez, Senior Planner Division: Planning Date: May 22, 2013 Subject: SUB 2013— 00057 Whittington Subdivision (Phase A) - Final Subdivision Plat prior to a Preliminary The County of Albemarle Planning Division will approve the plat referenced above once the following comments 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, which is to the Subdivision /Zoning Ordinances unless otherwise specified.] 1. [14- 302(B)5] Zoning classification. Proffers apply to this site. Appropriate reference to them must be noted on this plat as well as future plats and plans. 2. [ZMA2006011 Application Plan, 18- 19.9.1, 14 -213A, 14- 302(B)8] Setbacks. General Note #15 appears to be incorrect with regard to front setbacks to existing public r/w (currently listed as 45' on the plat); however, the rezoning application plan specifies 75' to existing public r /w. Revise. It is advisable that the applicant delineate and label the 75' setback on the plat as this setback is measured from the new right -of -way line, thus it appears this may impact buildable area of Lots 1, 51, 52, 53, 54, and 56. Also, an additional setback note shall be included on the plat for Rear Yard Setbacks. The rezoning specifies that "Rear lots adjoining RA districts shall have 35' rear setbacks." Please add this setback note to General Note #15, as it appears Lots 56 and 57 will be affected by this provision. Also, there is also a `build -to' distance of 30' for single - family detached; please add this information to the setback notes as well. 3. [ZMA2006011 Proffer 6] As submitted the right -of -way dedication fronting Open Space B, Lot 1, and Kendra Street (entrance to the property) does not appear to meet the required 55' dedication from the centerline of Rte 631 as described in proffer #6. Revise. 4. [ZMA2006011 Proffer 1] The maximum number of lots permitted in Whittington is 96. A table providing the existing and proposed lots and total permitted must be provided on the plat and updated with each submittal for various phases. Revise. 5. [ZMA2006011 Proffer 2] Lot Size. Each lot is required to be a minimum of 40,000 gross Square Foot in area. Provide a note on the plat which states the minimum lot size requirement for this development. Also, on the plat provide the Square Footage calculations for each lot rather than the acreages. Most notably, it appears "Lot 56" is below the required square footage. Revise appropriately. 6. [ZMA2006011 Application Plan and 14 -303F] Identification of sections, blocks, and lots. The lot numbers within the subdivision do not match the lot numbering provided/ approved in the application plan. Staff has noted that the road plans utilize these same incorrect lot designations; however, the road plan does not create the lots, rather the subdivision plat does. Thus the lot numbers on this plat should be revised to match the application plan. Revise. 7. [ZMA2006011 Application Plan] The 25' screening easement is mislabeled on the plat, the appropriate title of this easement is "25' screening and landscape easement ". Revise. 8. [18 -19.6] Minimum Area Requirements for Open Space and Recreational Uses in PRD District. On the plat provide the percentage of open space which is being provided in this phase. 9. [ZMA2006011 Application Plan, 18- 19.6.2 and 18 -4.16] Recreational Area Requirements and Recreational Regulations. It appears there should be a Pocket Park located in Open Space B, and a Rain Garden located in Open Space A, and a Pocket Park w/ Picnic Shelter located in Open Space D per the application plan. Please indicate these items on the plat. 10. [14 -317 and Proffer 1 & 8 ] Instrument evidencing maintenance of certain improvements. Documents relevant to dedication and /or maintenance of open space, 25' screening and landscape easement, and 10' and 20' access easement must be provided for review to the County Attorney in order for final subdivision plat approval. Please submit a draft of this document to me and I will review it and forward it to the County Attorney for his review/ approval. 11. [14 -317, 303L] Instrument evidencing maintenance of certain improvements. A Deed of Dedication and Deed of Easement is needed for the drainage easements shown on the plat. The applicant should contact the County's Attorney's Office for the most recent deed template for drainage easements to be included with the next submittal of the plat. Please submit a draft of this document to me and I will review it and forward it to the County Attorney for his review /approval. 12. [14- 302(A)9] Building sites on proposed lots. Include a note on the plat referencing the previously approved critical slope waivers (per 1977 rezoning and 2006 rezoning). Be advised that this does not replace or negate the requirements listed in proffer # 4. 13. [Comment] Proposed Easements. Depict the proposed 20' water line easement which appears to be within the proposed r/w (Kendra Street). Assure that the waterline easement is permitted under the pavement section of the right -of -way, as the road plan shows it on the unpaved portion of the r/w easement and VDOT previously provided comments on this item during the road plan review. Please work with VDOT to assure correct location of this easement and depict it on the plat. 14. [14 -303S] Control points. Control points must be submitted. At the option of the subdivider, the control points may be shown on a copy of the final plat, rather than on the original final plat. 15. [14 -3030] Signature of Agent On Sheet 1 under County Approval, the plat provides a space for the "Director of Planning "; however, the appropriate title of the person able to approve this plat is "Agent for the Board of Supervisors ". Please revise. 16. [Comment] On sheet 1 omit the VDOT Approval signature line as this is neither required nor appropriate for this plat. 17. [14- 302(B)1] General information. Add a revision date to all future submittals. 18. [14 -435] Surety in lieu of completion of on -site improvements. This plat cannot be signed by the County until all necessary bonds have been posted for this phase. 19. [14- 216(B)5] On the plat provide a note which reads: `All new public street right -of -ways shown hereon are hereby Dedicated to Public Use" 20. [14 -426, 428] Dedication of land for public use.
