RE: Cascadia/Fontana Connection
Dear Mr. Myers,
Your request for variation of the requirement of construction of the road to connect Cascadia and Fontana
has been approved subject to conditions. Your request was reviewed for compliance with the criteria
contained in Chapter 14, Section 409 of the Code of Albemarle. Due to existing conditions and the
possible change in development on the Fontana side it is appropriate to not construct the new road to the
property line. The approval is granted subject to the following conditions:
1. The public street shall be constructed past the point at which the primary structures on the lots
abutting the street would rely on the finished grade for landscaping and other improvements, but in
no case less than thirty (30) feet beyond the curb line or ditch line on those lots;
2. Placement of a sign at the end of the constructed portion of the street stating that the street is a
future through street. The sign shall be maintained until the county grants final approval of
extending the street to the abutting property.
If you have not already done so, please submit the necessary road plan amendments for review and
approval directly to the reviewing engineer. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
William D. Fritz, AICP
Chief of Special Projects
