Re: SDP - 2013 -042 New Hope Church — Final Site Plan
Dear Ms. Yaniglos:
We have reviewed the Site Plan for the New Hope Church dated 1 -17 -13 with revisions dated 4-
9-13 and 6 -28 -13 as submitted by Blackwell Engineering and offer the following comments:
1. The site plan shows a radius of 12.5' for the entrance. The minimum radius is 25'.
2. The CG -6 shown for the proposed entrance will not be required.
3. An access management spacing exception will be required for this entrance location. The
engineer is currently working with VDOT on this exception, but it has not been approved
at this time. Final site plan approval will be dependent on the approval of this exception
request.
4. The engineer has provided us an erosion and sediment control plan that is different than
that shown in this submittal. The plan sent to us shows a sediment trap to be located
within the right -of -way near the intersection of Dickerson Lane and Dickerson Road. It
should be noted that a sediment trap will not be allowed at this location due to safety and
long term road maintenance concerns that may be influenced by a potential sediment trap
at this location.
If you need additional information concerning this project, please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
I
Troy Austin, P.E.
