Subject: Site Review Meeting Comments January 10 2007 site review meeting
Dear Mr. Brooks:
Below are VDOT's comments on the Site Plans for the January 10` 2007 Site Review Committee
Meeting:
SDP - 2007 - 00150 Lane Bonner — Slope Waiver (Megan Yaniglos)
This plan was not included in the package.
E SDP - 2007 - 00154 ETC Building #2 Modular Laboratory Addition — Major (Patrick Lawrence)
Access to the proposed lab is through private road Discovery Lane and connects to public road
Lewis and Clark Drive. The increase in traffic expected from this use is minimal and the
access to the state road is adequate.
SDP - 2007 - 00155 Shadwell Market — Final (Summer Frederick)
Right in/out access needs to be located on the entrance at route 250 and the entrance at route
22 should have a full access.
What will the construction timeline he for the store? Construction on the road section is
expected in the spring of 2008 but has not been verified.
The truck turning diagram for fuel trucks shows the truck in opposing traffic lanes to enter the
site. This may cause problems if there are vehicles in the left turn lane of route 22 and left
turning movements from route 250 onto route 22 and a truck needs to get into the site.
SDP - 2007 - 00157 UVA Long Term Acute Care Hospital — Preliminary (Gerald Gatobu)
The plan should add trip generations numbers for the site.
0 °YEARS OF
TRAP4SPORTA1 ON EXCELLENCE
1 1 J 6 2 0 0 6
There is an existing right turn lane at the proposed entrance to the site. Assuming the trip
estimates are relatively low, a right turn may be all that is necessary but the numbers should be
provided to determine is a left turn lane is warranted.
SDP - 2007 - 00158 Vest Property/ Verizon Tier II PWSF — Final (Gerald Gatobu)
The applicant has been in contact with VDOT on the multiple Verizon Tower projects
throughout the county. VDOT has indicated the need for adequate sight distances on all
of the sites but does not feel it to be necessary to upgrade these sites to the commercial
entrance standards in order to preserve the rural nature of many of the sites. In the few
cases that the entrances do not meet the sight distance requirements, the applicant has
indicated they plan to propose other safety measures be taken to ensure safety. The
applicant is contacting VDOT on the individual sites and each site is being addressed for
safety.
SUB - 2007 - 00396 Clifton Lake, Phase I Subdivision — Preliminary (David Pennock)
Are there only two phases of this subdivision? If there are additional phases, they all
need to be shown on a sheet.
The curve on Shadwell Road that continues the road needs to be designed as a 25 mph
curve with a minimum 200 foot radius.
When full implementation of Chapter 527 regulations is in effect in June 2008, this plan
will fall under the threshold for a TIA.
The sight distance at the intersection of Shadwell Road with route 250 is limited to the
east and may not have adequate sight distance; the additional traffic causes safety
concerns without proper sight distance.
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.

Memorandum
To:Patrick Lawrence, Current Development Project Planner
From:Phil Custer, Current Development engineering review
Date:7 January 2008
Subject: ETC Building #2, Modular Laboratory addition (SDP -2007- 00154)
T'he preliminary site plan for the modular laboratory addition on the ETC #2 Building site has been
reviewed. Engineering review for current development can recommend approval to this preliminary plan
at this time. The following items have been provided to assist the applicant in the later stages of design.
1. The addition of the modular laboratory seems to eliminate many parking spaces. If parking
calculations require additional spaces, the new parking area will need to meet the design standards
specified in the Site Plan Ordinance and the County Design Manual and will be subject of engineering
review. It should be noted that the parking calculation should also consider the loss of the spaces that
will be closed off behind a safety fence for the construction of the modular building.
2. A WPO application and fee will need to be submitted by the applicant for the review of the ESC plan.
A SWM plan will not be necessary unless an additional parking area is required.
3. Please provide silt fence for the construction of the sanitary sewer line. [VESCH]
4. Please show the limits of construction on the ESC plan. [VESCH]
5. It appears as though a corner of the modular building is placed in the VEPCO easement. This matter
should be solved between VEPCO and the applicant, but may affect the overall layout.

Subject: UVA- ETC Modular Lab Building Site plan revision
Pat,
Engineering has no objection to the preliminary plan for the minor amendment of the ETC modular building as it
was submitted. However, if their parking justification memo falls short and more spaces are
needed, another engineering review will be needed. Also, UVA has forwarded me an email from Dominion Power
granting permission for the placement of the building in the electric line easement.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Phil

Re: UVA Research Park: ETC Modular Lab
Dear Mr. Wooley:
The plan, entitled University of Virginia Research Park, ETC Building #2, dated December 4,
2007, last revised April 24, 2008, is hereby approved for construction. One set of the approved plan is
enclosed for your records. Any previously approved plans are voided with this approval. This
approval is for basic compliance with the General Water & Sewer Construction Specifications of the
Albemarle County Service Authority (ACSA) and does not relieve the contractor from responsibility for
his work as it relates to the plan and specifications.
The ACSA requires that a copy of the approved construction plan be on the job site. The
contractor is responsible for marking up a copy of the approved construction plan showing as -built
information and provides this data to your client at the completion of utility installation. The final as-
built plan shall be submitted in a format of one paper copy and one mylar copy.
A preconstruction conference shall be scheduled with the project manager to ensure
coordination and answer any questions. This will be a short meeting to review the project, materials,
test methods and schedule, in order to expedite construction. Please have the proper party call me at
977 -4511 to schedule the meeting.
This approval is valid for a period of 18 months from this date. If construction is not in
progress at the end of this time period, the approval shall be void.
The pressure for water may exceed 80 psi at some meter locations). If you have any
questions, or if we can be of assistance, please give us a call at (434) 977 -4511.
Sincerely,
