The final site plan will not be considered to have been officially submitted until the following items are received: A final site plan that satisfies all of the requirements of section 32.6 of Chapter 18 of the Code and addresses requirements attached to this letter from the Site Review Committee Members. Please note that the comments from Albemarle County Police are recommendations and are not requirements that need to be addressed. There may also be additional recommendations from reviewers, please correspond directly with the reviewer concerning any questions regarding recommendations or requirements. A fee of $1,500. Please submit 8 copies of the final plans to the Community Development Department. The assigned Lead Reviewer will then distribute the plans to all reviewing agencies (except for ACSA, please submit 3 copies directly to them). Once you receive the first set of comments on the final site plan, please work with each reviewer individually to satisfy their requirements. The Department of Community Development shall not accept submittal of the final site plan for signature until tentative approvals from Site Review Committee members have been obtained.

Sincerely, Megan Yaniglos Principal Planner �YpF AL��, 4 �P V l C? t -1. County of Albemarle Department of Community Development Memorandum To: Chris Mulligan (cmulligan @roudabush.com) From: Megan Yaniglos- Principal Planner Division: Planning Services Date: July 24, 2015 Subject: SDP - 2015 -028 Old Trail- Blocks 10, 16, 17/18- Initial Site Plan The Planner for the Planning Services Division of the Albemarle County Department Community Development will recommend approve the plan referred to above when the following items have been satisfactorily addressed. (The following comments are those that have been identified at this time. Additional comments or conditions may be added or eliminated based on further review.) [Each comment is preceded by the applicable reference to the Albemarle County Code.] Requirements: 1. [32.5.2; Proffers /COD] Provide a table that contains all the information regarding all the proposed blocks, built and unbuilt /under review. This table is necessary to track all the requirements of the ZMA. 2. [32.5.2] Will any of the lots be proposed as affordable? A minimum of 15% of affordable units are required per the proffer. Identify which lots /units will be affordable. 3. [32.5.2] Break up the parking calculations. Two spaces are required for each single family detached unit, and 2.25 for each single family attached /townhouse unit. It is also unclear if on street spaces are being counted towards parking. 4. [32.5.2] An easement for the sidewalks and planting strips will need to be established to assure maintenance of these areas. Generally, the County prefers that these areas be within the right of way. Is there a reason why these need to be within the lots? All other portions of Old Trail have the sidewalks and planting strips within the right of way. Also, to be consistent with the currently deferred rezoning submittal, it might be good to match those setbacks proposed in that document and have the landscape and sidewalk within the right of way. 5. [32.5.2] Provide information on lot coverage. This can be included in the table requested in comment #2. 6. [Variations /Exceptions] The requests are under review and will be scheduled shortly for the PC and the Board, as applicable. Staff will be in touch concerning the dates. Please contact Megan Yaniglos at the Department of Community Development 296- 5832 ext. 3004 for further information. .

RW — Extend RW of public /private streets one foot (1') behind sidewalks consistent with RW shown for approved road plans, prior blocks of development at Old Trail Village. Ref. sheet 10, 61' PUBLIC RW, Fielding Run Drive; sheet 11, 55' Existing Public R -O -W, Rowcross Street. 2. To extent practical, keep all storm drain pipes within right of way. Note, for example, pipe at NE corner, Lot 8 (Upland and Rowcross); at SE corner, Lot 8 (Alley and Rowcross); or at SE comer, Lot 14 (Golf Drive and Rowcross). Please accept this comment applicable to future design. Maintenance responsibility is unworkable if design links inlets via pipes that cross lots via easements that propose to alternate public and private maintenance. Parties with maintenance responsibility may rightly contest responsibility. It will save time during the review process if design abandons narrow right -of -way and establish right -of -way 1' beyond sidewalks (standard design practice). VDOT dedicates public right -of -way to the County, which does not have a public works department to maintain public storm drain facilities. 3. 38' CL radius, Rowcross, sheet 8, does not meet public street standards. Please revise. 4. Alley does not provide road frontage for Lots 17 -21 (block 17, sheet 8); propose street. 5. Alley does not provide road frontage for Lots 10 -14 (block 17, sheet 7); propose street, not alley. Public /private street standards apply to proposed travel ways serving Lots 10 -14 and 17 -21 (block 17/18). 6. Sheet 8 — Eliminate 16 perpendicular parking spaces at open space off Alley opposite Court Mont — parallel parking only. Concerns: safety (proximity to street comers; reverse maneuvers); sight distance (parked vehicles obstruct). [VDOT Road Design Manual, Appendix B.1 A.D. — perpendicular, on- street parking: normally prohibited; Also, Road Design Manual, Appendix Q. For fanal site plan 7. Label stream buffer (dashed lines), sheets 5, 8. 8. Position SWM facilities (ponds) outside stream buffers. 9. Provide guardrail, Rowcross, between street and SWM pond. 10. Switch labels near SWM Pond that read proposed sanitary manhole (typical), proposed storm sewer M.H. (sheets 8, 11). 11. Drainage, sheet 13, Lots 10 -15: Engineering review drainage plan checklist: "Provisions and easements for drainage across 3 or more lots. Dense development where fencing, decking, etc is expected should provide yard inlets and pipes in easements rather than ditches. {Policy }" Provide yard inlet as necessary. 12. Check loop street design at open space off Alley opposite Court Mont against 14- 412.A.2: sight distance not less than 100', radius for horizontal curvature 40' or greater. 13. SWM —if proposed SWM facilities are located on County property, provide HOA Maintenance Agreements. Reserve Drainage & Access Easement/s to SWM facilities on Parks and Recreation property for OTV HOA. Engineering Review Comments Page 2 of 2 14. Ensure proposed SWM facilities and development are consistent with revised Master (Conceptual) prepared by Stantec. Conceptual SWMP approved with ZMA200400024 governs site plan/subdivision development with respect to state regulations until and unless a revised Master plan is approved.

The recommendations are meant to be utilized as a design strategy to create a safer environment for the future residents of the Old Trail community. Advisory Landscaping Recommendations All shrubbery and ornamental grasses used in foundation planting areas should follow the CPTED two foot six foot rule. Shrubs should be no taller than two feet in front of building windows. Tree crowns in common areas, near buildings, and along pedestrian walkways should be pruned no less than six feet from ground level to maximize surveillance opportunities. Shrubbery should always remain below the window line so natural surveillance is not hindered from the interior of the residence out onto property grounds. Shrubs, ornamental grasses, and ornamental flowering trees should be planted no less than six feet from pedestrian walkways to eliminate concealment and ambush opportunities. Shrubbery and ornamental grasses should be maintained at no more than two feet tall around pedestrian entranceways to eliminate concealment and ambush opportunities. Advisory Lighting Recommendations All lighting should be within the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America (IESNA) guidelines for minimum security lighting standards. It is advised that all pedestrian walkways, be illuminated to a minimum 1.0 fc horizontal on pavement and a minimum of .5 fc to .8 fc vertical 5' above ground. All lighting should demonstrate uniformity to eliminate any retinal light adaption conditions. All lighting on site should be at a 4:1 average to minimum ratio (background to face), and designed to limit light trespass and glare. Use pedestrian scale lighting (see below) in high pedestrian traffic areas. All lighting on site should be sufficient to allow facial recognition at thirty feet. Thirty feet is the minimum for reaction time to determine if a person is a potential threat. Advisory Territorial Recommendations Concrete sidewalks leading to the individual buildings from the public sidewalks should be constructed with pavers or different textures and colors to indicate a transition from public space to private space. All building entrances should be designed with front porches or stoops to promote territoriality and encourage natural surveillance. Pedestrian Scale Lighting Typical pedestrian scale luminaires are mounted at a height of 10 to 20 feet. Typical pedestrian zone lighting is usually mounted in the 12 to 18 ft. range. All luminaires should be LED equipped dark sky compliant and designed to minimize glare and light trespass. L MPO Steve Watson, ICPS, CPD Albemarle County Police Department Crime prevention Unit
