Also, a structure must meet the setbacks of the property it is located on so for the split zoned lots, they should show the
R4 setbacks for the R4 portion and the NMD setbacks for the NMD portion.

Subject: Belvedere - post discussion with Rebecca R
Chris,
I had a great meeting with Rebecca this morning, in preparation for the meeting she and I have scheduled
with the applicant for Belvedere Ph IIB (SUB201600119).
In that some things came up that I thought I should let you know.
• 1 will drop by a color print of the engineering comments for SP2007 54 & 58 that shows the roads that
need extra parking. We are supposed to have 65 parking spaces on roads highlighted in RED in our
two projects combined. So we will have to coordinate on that. For the portion Fowler Street in your
plan you will need to require parking on both sides in order to meet that requirement.
• Rebecca says that for the split zoned lots in your project that are mostly in the NMD they have to be
counted towards the NMD unit counts. This will probably apply to two lots in Block 4 & two lots in
Block 8. With SUB2016-119 (mine) they have already used all the available density/lots for Block 4
and there are no available units to count in your plan. It is likely that a plan line adjustment or
variation is in their future on this but Rebecca is going to double check the original NMD line to make
sure that we are basing this on the correct NMD boundary line.
Thanks,

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. [35.1, 35.3, 35.3(b), 32.3.4, 14-203(I), 14-218] Fees. Prior to any further action on SDP2016-35, SUB2016-
120, SUB2016-119 pay the required SRC notification fee of $691.66
Explanation of the above referenced fee:
a) SDP2016-35 $215 + notices over 50
b) SUB2016-120 $215 + notices over 50
c) SUB2016-119 notices over 50, as the $215 was already paid for this plat.
The total cost of the notices over 50 comes out to $261.66
2. IZMA2004-71 Comment from zoning staff about the proposed split zoning. As indicated in preapplication
meetings prior to submittal, staff strongly recommends against creating split zoned lots. It's recommended
the plat and site plan be revised to address this issue. The application plan for Belvedere did not anticipate
this either. The plan and plat must demonstrate the proposed uses, setbacks, and code of development
standards can be met in each district for the lots created. The Zoning, Proposed Use, and Density on the
cover page must be updated to provide this information. A table must be provided to indicate an accounting
of open space, density, etc. Any portion of a structure that would be build on NMD zoned property will be
subject to the proffers of Belvedere.
3. [32.5.2(a)] Setbacks. Per our discussion at the beginning of the project, please revise the building site note
sheet 1 to omit the portion which reads: "Lots 118-121, 57, and 58 are future lots in this section which are
still zoned R-4... " as it was explained this note is a carryover from a previous iteration of the plan and is no
longer applicable.
4. [32.8.2] Infrastructure improvement plans. All infrastructure required to construct phase 4A shall be review,
approved, and built or bonded before the final plat and/or final site plan approval. This includes all offsite
improvements required to serve the development: road plans, WPO plan, water and sewer connections.
5. [32.5.2(b), 32.5.2(n), 32.5.1(c)] Dimensions. On the plan depict and dimension all proposed improvements,
including buildings, driveways, and garages.

allowed by right or by special use permit in the underlying district, provided that the owner submits new
topographic information that is based on more accurate or better technical data demonstrating, to the
satisfaction of the county engineer, that the slopes are less than twenty-five (25) percent. Disturbance of
preserved slopes is prohibited. The plan provides a note on sheet 1, which states that portions of the
preserved slopes are to be impacted upon completion of field run topography. County Engineer sign -off on
this topographic information is required prior to final site plan approval.
12. [32.5.2(a)] General Information. To clearly distinguish the project limits for phase 4A remove lot
designations/labels from all lots in phase 2B, further subdue phase 2B, and label phase 2B "approved under
separate cover" throughout the plans.
13. [32.5.2(a)] Vicinity map. The subdivision is a phased subdivision, revise the vicinity map to depict all other
phases of the subdivision for which a final plat has been approved, in detail adequate to describe the location
of the property without field review. Also, label and depict phase 2B as it is required to be approved prior to
the approval of phase 4A. Also, provide existing property lines in phase 4A.
14. [32.5.2(a)] General Information. The phasing note on sheet 1 states that lots 231 and 232 are to be
developed in phase 2; however, those lots are part of this plat/site plan and are included in phase 4A.
