Memorandum
To: Kristopher C. Winters, LS (kwinters @dominioneng.com)
From: Rachel Falkenstein, Senior Planner
Division: Planning
Date: April 10, 2014
Rev1: April 18, 2014
Subject: SUB 201400053 Horseshoe Bend Rd & Locust Grove Ln — Boundary Line Adjustment
The County of Albemarle Planning Division will grant or recommend approval of the Boundary Line Adjustment
Plat referenced above once the following comments have been addressed: [Each comment is preceded by the
applicable reference, which is to the Subdivision /Zoning Ordinances unless otherwise specified.]
1. [14- 302(A)(2)] Vicinity Map. Revise the scale of the vicinity map to 1 inch equals 2000 teet.
Rev1: Comment Addressed
2. [14- 302(A)(10)] Right of further division. Based on previous plats it appears that TMP 29 -63D and TMP
29 -80 contain 5 development rights each. Please note on the plat if development rights are being
impacted by this Boundary Line Adjustment and included the following note: "Parcel [letter or
number] contains [number] development rights and may /may not be further divided and when further
divided these rights shall not comprise more than [number] acres. Parcel [number] contains [number]
development rights and when further divided it shall not consist of more than [number] acres."
Rev1: This note should be amended to state that parcels may be further divided (remove the words
" /may not "). The note should also be amended to state that when divided parcel 29 -63D "shall not
comprise more than 22.785 acres." As shown on deed book 494 p 170, this appears to be its
December 1980 acreage.
3. [14- 302(A)(16)] Dam break inundation zones. A portion of TMP 29 -63D appears to be within the dam
break inundation zone according to the County's GIS. Show the limits of the zone on the plat.
Rev1: Comment Addressed
4. [14- 302(B)(7)] Reservoir watershed, agricultural forestal district. According to the County's GIS the
parcels are within the Lower Mechums River Water Supply Watershed. The parcels are also within the
Moorman's River Agricultural- Forest District. Amend note 7 to reflect this.
Rev1: Comment Addressed
[14- 302(B)(10)] Stream buffers. Show the locations of stream buffers as required by the Water
Protection Ordinance and add the following note, "The stream buffer(s) shown hereon shall be
managed in accordance with the Albemarle County Water Protection Ordinance."
Rev1: Comment Addressed
6. [14- 303(A)] Statement of consent to division. The County's standard consent statement was revised
effective January 1, 2014 to be in compliance with state code. Please revise the statement on the plat
to the following: "The platting or dedication of the following described land [insert a correct
description of the land platted] is with the free consent and in accordance with the desire of the
undersigned owners, proprietors and trustees if any."
*Note — I think this revision to the existing consent language will satisfy the property owners' concerns
conveyed to me by Scott Peyton (concerns of calling the action a "subdivision" when it is really a
boundary line adjustment). Therefore the additional note sent via email should not be needed. You
may also remove the language above the County Approval signature line. This language is not
required.
Rev1: Comment Addressed
7. [14- 302(6)1] Date of last revision. Please add the date of last revision with each resubmittal.
