Fax 434 -972 -4126
The County of Albemarle Planning Division will recommend approval of the plan referenced above once the
following comments 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, which is to the Subdivision/Zoning
Ordinances unless otherwise specified.]
1. [Comment] This application was reviewed against Site Development Plan requirements only. It appears
that lot lines and a `private road' are shown on the plan, but no subdivision application nor private road
request was submitted. Any subdivision related comments are provided for reference only unless necessary
for site plan approval.
2. [32.5.2(m)] The private street serving the development is proposed within an existing publicly dedicated
right -of -way, this is not approvable. VDOT never accepted the portion of the right -of -way labeled as
`Unimproved Inglewood Drive' into the State Secondary System and the County still owns it. Either pursue
vacation of the right of way pursuant to State Code 15.2 -2272 prior to final site plan and/or final subdivision
plat approval OR upgrade the existing roadway to meet current VDOT standards from the point where
VDOT maintenance ends. This will include a suitable turn around at the end of state maintenance, removal
of the existing parking area, continuation of curb and gutter, tie in of the existing driveway of TMP 061 KO-
05 -0D- 00400, and the dedication of right -of -way or easements as necessary. Please show these
improvements and easements or right -of -way prior to final site plan and/ or subdivision plat approval.
3. [Comment] Approval and recordation of a plat showing the vacation of the property line between TMP
61K -10 -OA and TMP 61K- 10 -OA2 is required prior to final site plan approval. Include the deed book/page
reference number on the final site plan. It may be appropriate to combine all platting items on a single plat
(if other items exist).
4. [Comment] VDOT approval of the proposed entrance to the site shall be required prior to final site plan
approval.
5. [14- 412(A)(3),14- 412(A)(3)(b) and 14- 412(B)] VDOT road standards apply to the proposed private street.
Show the 24' required width FC/FC on the final site plan.
6. [32.5.2(i),15.2.1(3)] A private street request must be submitted prior to final subdivision plat and final site
plan approval. This private street request can be reviewed administratively due to the presence of attached
dwellings. A maintenance agreement for the private street must be submitted for review and approval by the
County Attorney's Office with the subdivision application.
7. [32.5.2(n),14- 410(H)] Private Streets in the Development Area in the development areas, streets shall be
constructed with curb or curb and gutter, sidewalks and planting strips. Sidewalks and planting strips shall
be designed and constructed in compliance with section 14-422 (Sidewalks and planting strips for street
trees and other vegetation shall be established on both sides of each new street within a subdivision creating
lots for single family detached and single family attached dwellings in the development areas.) Revise to
provide sidewalks and landscape strips on both sides of the new street. Otherwise when the private street
request is submitted assure the appropriate variation or exception request is made pursuant to Section 14-
422(F) & 14- 203.1. This item shall be acted on prior to final subdivision plat and final site plan approval.
8. [32.5.2(n), 4.12.15(8)] Curb and gutter in parking areas and along travelways. Either provide the required
curb and gutters in the parking area or submit a request and justification for a modification/waiver under
Section 4.12.2(C) & (C)2. This is an agent approved waiver which can only be acted on after consultation
with the County Engineer, who shall advise whether the proposed waiver or modification would equally or
better serve the public health, safety or welfare. This item shall be acted on prior to final subdivision plat
and final site plan approval.
9. [32.5.2(b), 4.12.16(c)] Minimum parking space size. Are the 6' -wide parking spaces fronting Lots 4 -9 for
motorcycles/mopeds? If so, label the spaces as such. If not, on the plan label what they are being utilized
for. These spaces shall not be counted towards the minimum required spaces.
10. [4.12.16(C)] The two proposed parking spaces fronting TMP 061KO -05 -OD -00400 are required to be 18' in
length. Currently they are depicted as 16' in length. Revise the final site plan accordingly.
11. [32.5.2(i)] Street trees shall be required for this development. Prior to final site plan approval a landscape
plan shall be provided.
12. [32.5.2(i), 4.6.3,15.2.1(3),15.31 Setbacks. The setbacks throughout the plan are not accurately depicted.
This development is classified as "infill development" pursuant to Section 4.19 of the County Code. The
correct setbacks for this development are as follows:
Front Minimum — 30 foot
Front Maximum — none
Side Minimum & Maximum -- none
Rear Minimum - 20 foot
Rear Maximum -- none
Revise the plan and notes on Sheet 1 accordingly.
13. [32.5.2(1)] Per the June 19, 2015 letter by David L. Powell, Environmental Specialist, which was submitted
to staff on October 29, 2015, the stream feature has been categorized as an Intermittent Stream. The study
was reviewed by County Engineering staff and has been determined to be adequate. An adjacent property
owner has contacted staff and expressed his concerns with this study and has opted to contract a stream
categorization study of his own by a licensed professional. At the time of this approval letter the second
study has not been provided. When the study is submitted it shall be considered and reviewed by County
Engineering staff. If the second study contradicts the June 19t''. 2015 study, the County Engineer will make
a determination to classify the stream.
14. [32.5.2(d), 32.5.2(f)] The 9' retaining wall is acting as a dam for the stream that may cause flooding on
neighboring properties in the event of heavy rainfall. Have any studies been conducted to assess the max
flow of this stream to assure that the 60" storm sewer pipe is adequate to avoid such flooding? If so, please
provide copies of the study to myself and Engineering, This item may pose an issue for the development
during the WPO plan review of the project. Please work with Engineering staff to address this concern prior
to final site plan approval.
Also, the `New 60" HDPE Storm Sewer' discharges water into the existing Swale on TMP 61K- 5 -D -4. Will
piping the water under the proposed buildings increase the velocity /flow of discharged water potentially
increasing erosion on the neighboring property and/or impact properties downstream? During the WPO plan
review and prior to final site plan approval please work with Engineering staff to address this concern.
15. [32.5.2(p) & 32.7.9.71 Screening. The proposed outfall of the stream shall be screened from the adjacent
residential lots (TMP 061K0- 05 -0D- 00400& 061KO- 09- 00- 003130). Provide the required screening on the
final site plan's landscape plan.
16. [32.5.2(a),15.41, 3.11 Maintenance of existing wooded areas. For the undisturbed areas to qualify for a
10% density bonus, demonstrate in an exhibit that the area meets the definition of "Wooded Areas" per
section 3.1 of the ordinance. Provide the exhibit and a conservation plan as specified in section 32.7.9 prior
to final site plan approval and/or final subdivision plat approval.
On the final subdivision plat, show the conservation area and provide the following note: "Lot acreages
shown hereon were calculated under the Bonus Level Cluster development requirements. Lots shown hereon
comply with section 15.4.1 "Environmental standards " by conserving acreage area that comprises
_Yo of the total area of the subdivided parcels. "
17. [32.5.2(a),15.4.3] Affordahle housing. Clearly identify the affordable unit on the final subdivision plat.
18. [32.5.2(a), 15.5, 15.3, 4.7] Cluster Development. On the plan clearly distinguish what area is being counted
towards the required Open Space B & C, and omit the square footage for the road and parking from the open
space totals.
On the final subdivision plat list who shall own and maintain the open space. An open space maintenance
agreement approved by the County Attorney's office shall be required prior to final subdivision plat
approval.
19. 132.5.2(a), 15.5, 15.3, 4.71 Cluster Development. On sheet C1, under Impervious Area Schedule, 33,500 SF
is listed under "Area in open space'; however, on sheet C3 open space A -D add up to 27,676 SF. Correct
and coordinate calculations throughout the plans.
20. [32.5.2(d)] Prior to final site plan approval provide a temporary grading and construction easement or
license agreement for the installation of the proposed DI and New 15" HDPE Storm Sewer on TMP 061KO-
05-OC- 01300. Also, revise the plan to provide this property owner's name and TMP.
21. [32.5.1(c), 32.5.2(n)] Dimensions. On the plan provide the dimensions of the proposed structures.
22. [Comment] On the plans provide the deed book page reference information for the existing 30' Joint
Access Easement. Staff research determined that the maintenance agreement for this join access easement is
DB1654 -291. Revise accordingly.
23. [Comment] The adjacent property owner of TMP 061 KO- 10- 00 -OOOA1 has a portion of his existing
driveway on land that is part of your development and property (TMP 061 KO- 10- 00- OOOA2). It appears that
some grading is taking place on a portion of his driveway that is on your land. He has contacted County staff
(Engineering and myself) and is very concerned with this aspect of the plans and does not want this to take
place. It is recommended that you contact this citizen and try and work out this issue. I have his contact
information and wild provide it to you upon your request.
24. 132.5.2(n) & (p)] The following will be required for final site plan approval:
If lighting is proposed: Outdoor lighting information including a photometric plan and Iocation,

Memorandum
To: Christopher Perez, Planning
From: Justin Deel, Engineering
Date: 3 November 2015
Subject: Inglewood Terrace (SDP201500020)
The initial site plan for Ingleside Terrace has been reviewed. The following concerns should be addressed;
1. The neighboring community, according to at least one member of that community, has expressed
intent to provide an additional study to contest the provided determination, because they strongly
feel that the stream is indeed perennial. Should a new study be presented to conflict with the
provided determination, this new information must be reviewed and considered.
2. Concerning previous comment #2; this comment is referring to TMP 61K- 05- OD -4's potential to
be an erosion impact area during and after construction. The comment response that the ultimate
configuration will not be erosive does not address the E &SC (construction) phase. This can be
addressed with the E&SC plan, and will be vigorously scrutinized at that time. The previously
requested drainage area verification will need to be provided as well.
3. Within the steep slopes overlay district, the maximum height of a single retaining wall is 6 feet
[18- 30.7.5]. This plan proposes a 9' to 10' wall passing through an area designated as a managed
slope. Please adjust. Note that the minimum horizontal distance between individual walls in a
stepped wall system is 3 feet.
4. The previously requested drainage and SWM easements are not shown.
5. Concerning road width (previous comment #7); the referenced footnote in the comment response
does not allow for a reduction in the minimum 24' face of curb to face of curb width for up to
2,000 ADT; rather it allows for a reduction in the minimum width's for 2,001 to 4,000 ADT.
Note that there is no reference to footnote 9 in the up to 2,000 ADT widths. The minimum width
is 24', please adjust.
6. Stormwater quality does not appear to be addressed with this plan. The previously requested
concept BMP plan has not been provided.
7. Parking lot sidewalks do not meet the minimum 5' width. There are no exceptions to this. See
Albemarle County Design Standards Manual for minimum configurations.
Comments for Final Site Plan (previously provided by Michelle Roberge and remain unaddressed on
plans and in comment response letter)
8. Retaining walls greater than 4' require railing.
9. Design proper inlet for stormsewer pipe bypassing runoff north of site. It appears there is an
existing channel. Are you proposing to improve the channel to the stormsewer inlet?
10. Verify channel at outfali is adequate.
11. A separate road plan will need to be approved and bonded prior to the approval of a subdivision
plat.
12. VDOT approval is necessary for connection to public road and for improvements within their
right -of -way.
13. Show groundcover, not grass, for slopes greater than 3:1.
14. A VSMP application shall be submitted and approved prior to the approval of the final site plan.
15. One parallel parking does not meet the 18' requirement for length.
16. Verify guardrails are not warranted under GRIT manual. Otherwise, please show.

Re: SDP - 2015 -00020 Inglewood Terrace - Initial Site Plan
Dear Mr. Perez:
We have reviewed the Initial site plan for Inglewood Terrace, with the latest revision date of October 15, 2015, as
submitted by Shimp Engineering and offer the following comments:
1. Previous conunent: "We recommend a YIELD sign on Inglewood Court to create a smooth through
movement and efficient operation ". Our Traffic section feels that a YIELD sign should be added on
Inglewood Court rather than Inglewood Drive as shown. The plan should be revised accordingly.
2. Previous comment:" Since the private street is proposed within an existing public right -of -way (ROW) we
recommend vacating a portion of the ROW to the intersection, of Inglewood Drive and Inglewood Court".
The limits of the ROW appear to not have been changed and the intent remains unclear. The limits of the
proposed Public ROW lute should be clearly shown on the plans.
3. Previous comment: "Intersection sight lines should be shown at the intersection and a sight distance profile
should be provided ". Noted: The engineer is waiting on a more detailed survey before responding,
however, adequate sight distance should be verified, for Inglewood Court, at this stage of review.
4. Previous comment: "Additional detail should be provided at the intersection of Inglewood Court and
Inglewood Drive ". For example: Additional survey information should be provided for the other side of
Inglewood Court for the placement of the YEILD sign and in order to verify adequate line of sight.
Additional detail should also be shown on the east side of Inglewood Drive, How will the proposed private
street transition into Inglewood Drive when it is wider than 20'.
5. Additional continents concerning the storm sewer, pavement etc. will be generated during the final
submittal.
If you need additional information concerning this project, please do not hesitate to contact me at (434) 422 -9894.
Sincerely,
Shelly A Plaster
