Process; After approval, plans will need to be bonded. The bonding process is begun by submitting a bond estimate request form and fee to the Department of Community Development. One of the plan reviewers will prepare estimates and check parcel and easement information based on the approved plans. The County's Management Analyst will prepare bond agreement forms, which will need to be completed by the owner and submitted along with cash, certificates or sureties for the amounts specified. The agreements will need to be approved and signed by the County Attorney and County Engineer. This may take 2-4 weeks to obtain all the correct signatures and forms. Stormwater Management Facilities Maintenance agreements will also need to be completed and recorded. The County's Management Analyst or other staff will prepare the forms and check for ownership and signature information. The completed forms will need to be submitted along with court recording fees. After bonding and agreements are complete, county staff will need to enter project information in a DEQ database for state application processing. DEQ will review the application information based on local VSMP authority approval. At this time, the DEQ portion of the application fees will need to be paid directly to the state. For fastest processing, this is done electronically with the emails provided on the application. DEQ should notify applicants with instructions on how to pay fees. When DEQ approves the application, they will issue a permit coverage letter. This should be copied to the county. After DEQ coverage is issued, via the coverage letter, the County can hold a pre -construction conference. Engineering Review Comments Page 3 of 3 Applicants will need to complete the request for a pre -construction conference form, and pay the remainder of the application fee. The form identifies the contractor and responsible land disturber, and the fee remaining to be paid. This will be checked by county staff, and upon approval, a pre -construction conference will be scheduled with the County inspector. At the pre -construction conference, should everything proceed satisfactorily, a joint VSMP and grading permit will be issued by the County so that work may begin. County forms can be found on the county website forms center under engineering; hiq2://www.albemarle.org/deptforyns.asl2?department--cdengno If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me either by email (ecox@albemarle.org) or by phone at 434-296-5832 ext. 3565.

Kilpatrick, P.E. Commissioner July 06, 2017 Emily Cox County of Albemarle Department of Community Development 401 McIntire Road Charlottesville, VA 22902 Re: SUB -2016-00206- Dunlora Park — Road & Utility Plan Review #4 Dear Ms. Cox: The Department of Transportation, Charlottesville Residency Transportation and Land Use Section, has reviewed the above referenced plan as submitted by Collins Engineering, Dunlora Park Road and Utility dated October 24, 2016, and revised on May 30, 2017, and offers the following comment. Land use 1. Current design doesn't meet connectivity requirements; please see Road Design Manual appendices B (1), SSAR, page 14, section 30-92-60 for reference. The regulation requires that new developments provide connectivity between adjacent developments and undeveloped parcels. If the proposed lots are served by a connection to Varick St. this requirement will be satisfied as there is not enough property frontage to provide an additional entrance that meets the Access Management regulations. Please provide two copies of the revised plan along with a comment response letter. If further information is desired, please contact Willis C. Bedsaul at (434) 422-9866. A VDOT Land Use Permit will be required prior to any work within the right of way. The owner/developer must contact the Charlottesville Residency land Use Section at (434) 422-9399 for information pertaining to this process. Sincerely, N4�m- . �ov Adam J. Moore, P.E.
