Code Chapter 14) 1. Alternate Lot BI-B2 boundary would preserve ability to construct on preferred building sites while dividing acreage and limiting stream crossings to two,maximum. The proposed boundary between Lots B1 and B2 is problematic in that there is a portion of Lot B2 that would be inaccessible without a third(future)stream crossing. A third stream crossing is not required if lot boundaries are revised. A third stream crossing will not be approved. Revise Lot B1-B2 boundary. 2. Note-Stream crossings: 17-604.C.7 and-604.D.are relevant. Ref item#1,above:Engineering recognizes that,with reconfigured lot boundaries,two crossings allow all portions of lots to be developed as permitted in the underlying zoning district and under the applicable regulations of the Subdivision Ordinance. ACCD Engineering is amendable to request to establish a second stream crossing. This concept was discussed with Brian Ray on 23-Dec-12. 3. Propose stream buffer Mitigation Plan for stream buffer impacts associated with proposed(private)street. 4. Total land disturbance associated with proposed(or revised)private street location must be calculated for comparison with VSMP permit Application threshold(10,000 SF). Calculate area of land disturbance. 5. If proposal to construct street is estimated to disturb>-10,000 SF,the street must be built or bonded,and VSMP permit approval is prerequisite to plat approval,or land disturbing activity[14-417].

Propose stream buffer Mitigation Plan for stream buffer impacts associated with proposed(private)street. (Rev.1)Partially Addressed. Asfollow-up: Stream Buffer Mitigation Plan for Wellington Estates dated 05/08/2015 proposes 168 hardwood seedlings on 8' x 8' centers with tree tubes and mats. This addresses 6,086 SF south stream crossing impact. Please consider north crossing;provide mitigation(pipe-stem west of Lot A). See Plat creating Lot A and Lot B,August 1,2014-Note J:"Any future improvements to create a road or driveway to serve one or both of these Lots(Lot A or Lot B)that crosses the stream buffer will require the submittal of a water protection ordinance plan." This Plat is first request to create a road with any crossings,and there are two crossings,north and south. Also,see Plat creating Lot Al and A2. This plat,dated October 31,2014,creates a 30'private street easement near the east boundary of Lot Al that avoids the stream buffer entirely. A Mitigation Plan supporting Final Plat creating Lot B1 and Lot B2 must address buffer impacts for north/south stream crossings(estimate area required to construct private 2-lot street/provide 2:1 Mitigation). New 75'and Variable width private street easement provides Access to Lots B1 and B2. Proposed location for 168 hardwood seedlings to offset south crossing impact lies within north crossing buffer. It may be inconsequential,but as there is no access to Lot B1 without the north crossing, it seems reasonable to mitigate north crossing impacts within the north buffer,and south crossing impacts within the south buffer. Please consider this recommendation. 4.

Subject: SUB201400184-RE: Wellington Estates Final Plat-Mitigation Plan Comment Response Chris, Since no stream buffer impact is proposed at the northern crossing(an existing 2-culvert stream crossing/see photos, 7- Jul correspondence),no mitigation is required for this northern crossing(SUB201400184). Given this circumstance, 8- Jun 2015 review comment, item#3 is addressed. Engineering has no objection to the proposed subdivision plat. I am glad you wrote to remind of your note sent 7-Jul,which I overlooked—please accept my apology. Your email with letter attachment with photos is descriptive and useful. Thank you,Chris. Note—please coordinate with Christopher Perez any outstanding review issues. Christopher is review coordinator. Thanks,again.
