Additional comments or conditions may be added or eliminated based on further review.): [Each comment is preceded by the applicable reference, which is to the Subdivision /Zoning Ordinances unless otherwise specified.] Conditions of Preliminary Plat Approval: 1. [14- 302(B)3] Public areas, facilities or uses. Coordinate with the Department of Parks and Recreation to establish the exact location of the greenway area and any other facilities as noted in the Comprehensive Plan. Please refer to comments provided by Parks during preliminary plat review. Final: The plat was sent to Parks for review; comments will be forwarded upon receipt. Final Plat Comments: 2. [Comment] It is somewhat confusing, but it seems that parcel `D' is a portion of parcel `F' and parcel `C' is a portion of parcel `G'. The plat indicates that parcels `F' and `G' are transferred to TMP 56K -A1 and TMP 56K- 02 -OOA and then parcels `D' and `C' are transferred to the new Greenway Parcel. For clarity, it may be better to have four separate parcels, but if left as is there are several clarifications necessary (see comments below). 3. [Comment] The transfer of acreage to adjacent properties (not the greenway parcel) could impact the number of approved lots shown on the Westlake Hills Preliminary Plat; make sure there is still sufficient overall acreage and open space acreage to support the number of lots approved on the preliminary plat. 4. [14- 302(A)1] Name of subdivision. If parcels `F and `G' are transferred to TMP 56K -A1 and TMP 56K -02- OOA and then parcels `D' and `C' are transferred to the new Greenway Parcel, the plat title should indicate that the greenway parcel is created from portions of TMPs 56 -53, 56L -D, 56L -E, 56K -A1 and 56K- 02 -OOA. 5. [14- 302(A)14] Land to be dedicated in fee or reserved. Clarify if the greenway parcel is being dedicated to public use with this plat; some sheets contain the note `Reserved for Dedication Upon Demand of the County of Albemarle' and others do not. If it is being dedicated, a Deed of Dedication must be submitted, reviewed and approved by the County Attorney's Office. 6. [14- 302(B)(1)] General informaiton. Sheets 4 &5 do not have a graphic scale. 7. [14- 302(B)(5)] Zoning classification. Add Flood Hazard Overlay (FH) to the zoning note. 8. [14- 303(D)] Acreage of lots. Add TMP 56K -A1 and TMP 56K- 02 -OOA to the acreage tabulations listed on the cover sheet and provide the correct final acreage of each parcel. A tabulation is provided on Sheet 3 for these parcels, but it should be included with the others on the Cover; additionally, the revised acreage provided does not account for the subtraction of parcels `D' and `C'. 9. [14- 303(D)] Acreage of lots. The starting acreage of TMP 56K- 02 -OOA is listed as 8.613, but GIS indicates the acreage is 2.71; please clarify. 10. [14- 303(D)] Acreage of lots. Notes #10 & #11 transfer parcels `E' and `F' from TMP 56 -53 to TMP 56K -A1 and TMP 56K- 02 -OOA; it seems the parcel references should be `F' and `G', please revise. 11. [14- 303(G)] Ownership of common areas. If the greenway parcel is not being dedicated to public use, indicate the intended ownership. 12. [14- 303(G)] Ownership of common areas. TMP 56K -A1 is labeled as Common Open Space on Sheet 2 but it is not open space, it is the Foothills Crossing residue parcel; revise accordingly. 13. [Comment] This plat cannot be approved until ACSA, RWSA and Parks complete their reviews and grant their approval. Comments will be forwarded upon receipt. Engineering has reviewed the plat and has no objection. Please contact Ellie Ray in the Planning Division by using erayCa)albemarle.ora or 434 - 296 -5832 ext. 3432 for further information. 2
