As a whole I found the plan to be lacking in completeness; such that it may impact the scheduling of
i:e ' view by the planning commission.
4.1 - Health regulations] As this document will have to be forwarded to the Albemarle County
Service Authority both the design on of the water and sanitary sewer lines need completion in design
and coordination with the location of both existing and proposed structures, limits of clearing,
proposed and future trees, elevations, and in particular plan and profile design of sanitary sewer.

4.2 - Critical Slopes] Critical slopes need to be addressed. There are several areas that appear to have
slope greater than 20% both in the existing condition (not necessarily as result of previous ht s.
construction) and as a result of proposed grading.

Figure 1, to the right, located at the southwest corner
of the site) will require a request for a critical slopes
waiver. They are not included in any previous

13. There are concerns with the existing 2:1 or greater slopes seen in bold in Figure 2. They are not
natural and are a result of previous construction. Please revise these areas to make the slopes less
awkward. [DSM902A5]
Rev2: There is a grade bust with the 518 elevation line near the roundabout (see Figure I below).
The 518 contour line coming from the parking area should tie into the building from the
roundabout (shown in black), and the existing line (shown in gray) which runs back and ties into
the existing 518 contour line should be removed.

areas and travelways.
B. Stormwater Management Plan (WP0200600087)
There are no Stormwater Management comments, or bonds necessary for this project, as the
Stornwater facilities have already been installed.

1. There is work outside of the limits of disturbance. Please revise to include all work inside the limits of
disturbance.
Rev2: Using the drainage areas as the limits of disturbance is not a problem. However, there are
still E &S measures, pipes, and grading shown outside of the drainage area lines and they do not
have additional lines denoting the limits of disturbance area. Please boldly denote these lines.
3. An E &S bond amount will be computed once all previous E &S comments have been addressed.

Please show the location of critical slopes. A critical slopes waiver may be needed. (Critical slopes
created as a result of a previously approved site plan do not need a critical slope waiver for their
i disturbance.) [18-4.2.5]
Revl: The fallowing three areas (seen shaded its
Figure 1, to the right, located at the southwest corner
of the site) will require a request, for a critical slopes
waiver. Tlteh are not included in att} previous

Memorandum
From: Jonathan Sharp, Current Development engineering review
Date: 5 Dec 2006
Subject: UVA Research Park, Towncenter Office Buildings (SDP200600 1 1 3)
Engineering has only done a preliminary review for this site plan because there was only enough
information provided to do preliminary review. A final site plan submitted at the time of preliminary needs
to include all plans and calculations required for final review, including Erosion and Sediment Control
Plans and calculations, a Stormwater Management Plan and calculations, drainage calculations, etc.
1. Please provide more up to date and accurate information for the parcel boundaries. It does not seem to
match the current boundaries. Is this site plan going to be subdivided from the rest of the parcel?
Please show how the final boundary of the site will look.
2. Please provide a conceptual stormwater management layout for the site including Stonnwater
Detention and Water Quality. Please provide Water Quality Calculations for each project drainage
area. [18- 32.5.6k,17 -303, 315B,C, DSM505.3A]
3. Please provide traffic generation figures. [18- 32.5.6, DSM601A.2]
4. Please provide a benchmark for topography. [DSM CD -15]
5. Please provide sight distances at entrances. [DSM CD -15]
6. Please show the location of critical slopes. A critical slopes waiver may be needed. (Critical slopes
created as a result of a previously approved site plan do not need a critical slope waiver for their
disturbance.) [18- 4.2.5]

Subject: Site Review Meeting Comments January 4 2007 site review meeting
Dear Mr. Brooks:
Below are VDOT's comments on the Site Plans for the January 4 2007 Site Review Committee
Meeting:
SDP - 2006 -00125 Vandine Plaza — Preliminary Plan (Patrick Lawrence)
The plan needs to show the ITE trip generation for the site.
The site lines in addition to the distances need to be shown on the plan.
Existing features of Rio Road need to be shown along with proposed improvements (i.e. turn
lane and taper, curb ramps, etc.) that may be necessary to accommodate the combination of
existing traffic and proposed traffic.
The entrance needs to be designed in accordance with VDOT's Road Design Manual and The
Minimum Standards of Entrances to State Highways and include all horizontal and vertical
features.
SDP - 2006 -00127 Flow Automotive — Final Site Development Plan (Gerald Gotabu)
Previous site plans have been submitted for this site and the comments provided by VDOT
have not been addressed in this plan. These comments include consolidating the existing
entrances for Flow Automotive into one with a turn and taper land and include 12 feet
additional dedication for the future expansion of rte. 250. The previous comments also
include adding inter - parcel connection with adjacent dealers.
The entrance needs to be a standard CG -11 and the pavement to the RAV line must be the
same structure as the existing rte. 250.
The site plan does not address buck traffic within the site. The trucks currently either park in
the rte. 250 median or back into the dealerships to unload vehicles. This is not acceptable on a
tooYEARSO

primary route with the amount of existing traffic on rte. 250. Any improvements or changes
to the dealership must address the existing inadequate truck circulation within the site.
The detail for CG -13 is not the most recent revision. It should be removed from the plan and
replaced with CG -11.
The CG -12C is not the most current revision.
SUB - 2006 -00393 Fishing Creek — Preliminary Plat (Megan Yaniglos)
No comments
SUB - 2006 -00411 Ashcroft (Phase III) — Preliminary (David Pennock)
All roads are proposed to be private.
Other access to the development besides Hansen's Mountain Road should be considered as
mitigation for the development due to the increased use and inadequacy of the intersection of
Rte. 250 and Hansen's Mtn. Road.
Please request the applicants provide a written description of revisions with re- submissions. If you
have any questions or comments, please contact me prior to sharing these comments with the
applicants.
Sincerely,
Joel DeNunzio, P.E.
