Perez- Senior Planner Division: Planning Services Date: April 29, 2015 Subject: SUB - 2014 -038- Afton House — 2 lot subdivision The County of Albemarle Planning Division will grant or recommend approval of the Final 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. [Comment] In doing the necessary plat research to verify development rights, it has come to staff's attention that the property boundaries for TMP 69 -513 and 69- 5A as depicted on the plat do not match that of County records. Evidently there was a boundary line adjustment plat associated with TMP 69 -5B and 69 -5A which was approved by the County on 5 -11 -2011 and recorded in the Clerks Office (DB4184 -75), which essentially cut off 1.77 acres from TMP 69 -5B and added it to TMP 69 -5A. The 1.77 acres provided TMP 69 -5A frontage on Rte 250 and vacated the 30' private road easement. Please address this inconsistency. Regardless, during staff s review it became apparent that the boundary line adjustment plat discussed above is null and void as it was approved on 5 -11 -2011 and recorded on 6 -06 -2012 (DB4184 -75), which is 1 year and 26 days from the date it was approved. Per County Code in affect at the time of plat approval, approved plats must be recorded within I year after signature by the subdivision agent otherwise they are null and void. Thus the plat is null and void and the Boundary Line Adjustment never truly transpired. Planning staff will develop a formal notice of violation for the subdivision and alert the owners involved. Also staff will work with real - estate and GIS to correct this error. If the owners of TMP 69 -5A and 69 -5B would like to re -plat the Boundary Line Adjustment they will need to resubmit the plat to the County along with an application and a review fee of $200. The project will then be expeditiously reviewed to assure it meets the ordinance prior to approval. Per current County Code which relies on State Code, approved plats must be recorded within 6 months after signature by the subdivision agent otherwise they are null and void. Please advise if this is what the applicant would like to do. If the boundary line adjustment plat remains null and void then the 30' private road (DB2219- 617/620), which was subject to be vacated on the BLA plat remains on TMP69 -513 as currently is depicted on the subdivision plat under review in our office. If the 30' private road remains on TMP 69 -513 then staff cannot approve a second private road on the same parcel and the applicant would need to revise the subdivision plat. Depending on both owners wishes it is advisable the owners of TMP 69 -513 and 69 -5A work together to resubmit the BLA plat to the County for review/ approval. Once the plat's been reviewed/ approved/ and re- recorded the 30' private road is no longer located on TMP 69 -513 and the proposed subdivision can create a new private road to serve lot 1 and the residue. If you have any questions please give me a call. Rev 1. Comment addressed. 2. [14- 302(A)(10)] Right of further division. It appears TMP 69 -513 truly only has 4 DR left per the 1987 plat which divided off 2.5 acres for Lot A. Revise the DR note to divide the remaining 4 DRs as you feel fit based on the acreage of each lot. When you revise the note assure it is in the following form: "Lot I is assigned 3 development rights and may be further divided. The residue of Tax Map /Parcel 69 -5B is retaining I development right and may not be further divided". As discussed above you may choose to allocate the development rights in different numbers, but it appears that the intent of the proposal is to assign only one DR to the residue. Rev 1. Comment addressed. 3. [14 -203] Fee. The project was initially submitted as a preliminary subdivision plat under 14 -206 and the applicant paid $1150 review fee. Per discussions with staff it was indefinitely deferred and corrected, and then resubmitted under 14 -207 with a true submittal fee of $540 and $330 Groundwater Tier II review fee. Being the subdivision will be processed under 14 -207 a refund of $280 is due to the applicant. Rev 3. Staff will check on the status of this refund. 2 depict a WPO stream buffer over this feature. On the plat depict the required 100' stream buffer on each side of the stream/feature and provide the following required note to the plat: "The stream buffers) shall be managed in accordance with the Albemarle County Water Protection Ordinance ". Rev 1. Comment not adequately addressed. While the drainage ditch has been appropriately labeled as a stream and the plat now has a 100' buffer on each side of the stream, the 100' buffer is incorrectly labeled. Also the plat does not provide the required stream buffer note. Revise to correctly label the buffer as "100' Water Protection Ordinance (WPO) buffer ", also assure the required note is provided: "The stream buffers) shall be managed in accordance with the Albemarle County Water Protection Ordinance ". Rev 3. Comment addressed. 7. [14- 303(E), 14 -4121 It appears Lot 1 is attempting to gain its frontage from the proposed 20' access easement; however, in order for this easement to provide the required frontage the easement must be for a Private Street and must be a minimum of 30' wide. Thus the proposed 20' access easement should be relabeled to "New 30' Private Street Easement ". Also, the easement holder(s) shall be identified on the plat. Rev 1. Comment addressed. 8. [14- 302(B)(10), 14 -3071 Stream Crossing. Also, it appears that the subdivision would be served by a street or driveway crossing a perennial or intermittent stream, the subdivider shall submit with each final plat, the information required to show that the stream crossing would satisfy the requirements of section 17- 320(D) or, in the alternative, section 17- 321(4). Provide this information. The plat has been forwarded to Engineering for review, their comments were provided to you on 4- 21 -14. Rev 3. Comment pending, a mitigation plan was submitted under WP02015 -27, pending the approval of that document. 9. [14 -304] Critical Slopes. As depicted Lot 1 has two proposed access points as the proposed access easement splits into two segments; however, this is not permitted and shall be revised to only provide one access for Lot 1. Thus it is advisable the applicant revise the proposed private street easement layout to avoid the critical slopes nearest State Rte 250. At this point the applicant has not submitted a request under 14 -304 to disturb the critical slopes onsite. Is it the applicant's intent to continue with the proposed location of the top portion of the easement? If so, the subdivider shall submit a written request or application under the applicable sections of the zoning ordinance. Provide this information. Notably the plat has been forwarded to Engineering for review of these slopes, comments are pending. Rev 1. Comment addressed. 10. [14 -309; 14 -310; 14 -4161 Soil evaluations. Health director approval of individual private wells and /or septic systems. Individual private wells and septic systems. a Primary and reserve drainfield for each parcel is required. Provide the results of percolation tests or other methods of soil evaluation used to determine the suitability of the soil for septic systems with conventional drain fields, so that the agent can then forward them onto the health department for review and approval for Lot 1 and the Residue. Rev 3. Pending Health Department approval. 3 street (State Rte 250) complies with Virginia Department of Transportation standards. Please provide this documentation. Rev 3. Comment addressed. 12. [14 -317] Instrument evidencing maintenance of certain improvements. Provide a private street maintenance agreement for the proposed private street for review and approval from County Attorney. A template for such an agreement is attached. Rev 3. The applicant revised the private road maintenance agreement; however, didn't know it'd have to go back to the County Attorney for re- approval. Thus upon notifying them of this, they request that we use the initial agreement which received County Attorney approval. 13. [14- 302(B)(7)] Reservoir watershed/ agricultural- forestal district. Add a note stating that the parcel is located in the South Fork Rivanna water supply watershed. Rev 1. Comment addressed. 14. [14- 302(B)(8] Yards. Sheet two provides the setbacks for the property; however, being the proposal utilizes an internal private road, the setback which is applicable to this feature shall also be included with the other setbacks. Revise setbacks to also include: "25' on internal public or private roads ". Rev 3. Comment addressed. 15. [14- 302(B)(1)] General Information. When the plat is revised, please provid date of the last revision on the plat. Rev 3. Comment addresse, - 16. [Comment] The County Engineering Department has provided the following comment: "Mitigation plans will be required for Stream Buffer disturbances prior to plat approval. [ 17- 322]" Rev 3.
