RE: Site Development Plan (SDP201400004)
Out of Bounds — Initial (SDP201400004) has been reviewed. Please address the following comments:
1. [Comment] Show sight distances at intersections.
[Revision 11 Please remove three parking spaces on Georgetown Rd to meet the 100' sight
distance at the intersection of Bennington Rd and road "B" per 7(C)(1.) of the Albemarle
County Design Standards Manual. This is the minimum requirement.
2. [Comment] The minimum turning radius at street intersections on subdivision streets shall not be
less than 25 feet. Please revise.
[Revision 11 Comment partially addressed. This can be fully addressed during the final site
plan. Change the radius to 25' where road "C" turns into lots 45 -51.
3. [Comment] Revise the sag curve in road `B" to meet the 155' minimum stopping sight distance.
[Revision 11 Comment addressed.
4. [Comment] For T -type turnarounds, please show a mountable curb, a VDOT CG -3 or a VDOT
rolltop curb. Please spec the sidewalk in that area to 7" for vehicles.
[Revision 11 Comment partially addressed. Sidewalk increased to 7" in depth. This can be
fully addressed during the final site plan. Label VDOT CG -3 on plans and provide VDOT
detail.
5. [Comment] Revise the sidewalk layout near the T -Type turnaround on Bennington Rd to match
the layout in Road `B."
[Revision 11 Comment addressed.
6. [Comment] Replace Str19 -1 and 20 -1 to domed grate inlets to provide relief if ST -18 is clogged.
[Revision 11 Comment addressed.
7. [Comment] Roof drains for lots 39 -51 are not designed to handle larger storms. Please show
runoff to drain from residential units to the road to be captured by DIs.
[Revision 11 Comment partially addressed. This can be fully addressed during final site
plan. A swale has been placed behind units, but yard inlets should be placed after every
three units. Provide a yard inlet behind lot 41.

8. [Comment] Show drainage improvements near Smithfield Road for downstream improvements.
This is part of proffer #5 A.
[Revision 11 Comment addressed. The inlet proned to clogging within VDOT's R/W on
Smithfield Rd was discussed during the SRC. VDOT recommends that they be notified if
inlet is clogged during the downstream drainage inspections of the Out of Bounds property.
9. [Comment] Are there any future connections for the proposed roads? A grading easement to the
property line may be necessary for future connections. Also, the lot line for lot 44 may need to be
adjusted.
[Revision 11 Comment addressed.
10. [Comment] Where is the electric line layout? Please verify that the electric line will not be in any
conflict with the proposed underground basins and other utilities.
[Revision 11 This can be addressed during final site plan.
These comments can be addressed at final site plan.
1. Increase the easement around the underground detention basin for an equipment landing. Use the
link below for the trench width.

ms /design standards _manual /Albemarle County Design Standards_ Manual_220ct2012.pdf
2. Show the access road easement for the underground detention basins.
3. Label the CG type on the plan. Also, please provide the standard VDOT aprons for the driveways
(CG -9D).
4. Please provide the width of all access easements. It does not appear that all sidewalks that may
require an access easement are shown on the plan. Please clarify. For example, the lots 45 -51 and
south of lot 6 are showing sidewalks, but no easements.
5. Label or note dimensions of parking stalls. It appears the parking on Georgetown Road Extension
does not match the pavement section on sheet C 11.
6. Show the detail of the retaining wall.
7. Provide the private road easement in between lots 45 to 51.
8. Provide bumper blocks or increase the sidewalk width to 6' in front of lots 48 -51.
9. It is difficult to read the pavement sections. For road plans, please spec and dimension pavement
sections.
10. Show the proposed fence on sheet C7 and C8. Also, a portion of the existing fence on sheet C -5 is
missing. Please show.
11. Update the scale on title block of sheets with road profiles. It is not matching what is shown on
plan.
Sincerely,
Michelle Roberge
