RE: Special Use Permits and Rezoning Submittals
Dear Mr. Fritz:
Below are VDOT's comments for the June, 2012 Rezoning and Special Use Permit applications:
SP- 2012 -00011 Four Seasons Learning Center (Christopher Perez)
1. The increase in students from 54 to 60 will increase the expected trips to the site from 45 in the
peak hour to 49.
SP- 2012 -00012 Regents School of Charlottesville (Christopher Perez)
1. The proposal for 55 students to this site will generate 53 AM peak hour trips.
2. The site has existing left and right turn lanes at the entrance which is adequate for the projected
traffic.
3. The site entrance has adequate sight distance.
SP- 2012 -00014 First Union Baptist Church Extension (Scott Clark)
1. This increase in size will generate an additional 24 weekday trips and 24 weekend peak hour
trips.
2. The site is off a privately maintained road that connects to a public road, Route 784. The private
road entrance will have adequate sight distance if the existing sign for the church is relocated
farther back from the road.
3. The volume on existing Route 784 is low and neither a right nor left turn lane is warranted for the
public road.
SP- 2012 -00015 Verizon Wireless — Colthurst Ingleridge LLC (Sarah Baldwin)

ZMA- 2012 -00002 Riverside Village (Claudette Grant)
1. The layout of roads appears to meet the VDOT connectivity requirements for state maintained
roads.
2. The frontage improvements on Route 20 need to be the same as the county's master plan for this
road. The typical section should be the same as the four lane divided section towards the
intersection at Route 250. The road needs to set the road horizontal alignment parallel to the
existing curb face on the opposite side of Route 20.
3. The proposed left turn lane dimensions need to be designed in accordance with the VDOT Road
Design Manual Appendix F -48 and include a capacity analysis.
4. ITE trip generation numbers need to be added to the plan.
5. Sidewalks need to be placed within the right of way.
6. The partial access entrance to the office area needs to meet the geometric requirements as shown
in The VDOT Road Design Manual Appendix F -84 and 90. The island needs to be widened and
the parking setback needs to be a minimum of 50 feet.
7. The first entrance to the office area form Route 20 needs to meet the setback requirements of the
VDOT Road Design Manual Appendix F -91. The minimum distance is 225 feet.
8. The minimum width of commercial entrance to public roads is 24 feet in low volume local road
conditions.
9. No manholes will be permitted within the proposed public road pavement for the sanitary sewer
line.
10. The typical sections need to meet the minimum requirements of the VDOT Road Design Manual
Appendix B (1). It appears that the residential part of the development will need to be designed
for the criteria of 0 to 2000 VPD. Widths need to include parking on both sides of the road and
roads with one access point need to meet the width criteria for roads with 2000 to 4000 VPD.
If you have any questions, please contact me.
Sincerely,
Joel DeNunzio, P.E.
