Memorandum
To: Justin Shimp Qustin(c shimp-engineering.com)
From: Paty Saternye, Senior Planner
Division: Planning
Date: April 4, 2018
UPDATE: April 20, 2018
Subject: SDP 201800006 Royal Fern Townhomes — Initial Site Plan
Fax 434-972-4126
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.]
Comments to be addressed prior to the Initial Site Plan approval:
1. Pay the required notices fee of $215.
UPDATE: Comment addressed. Fee paid.
Comments to be addressed with the Final Site Plan submission:
2. A site plan meeting all the requirements of section 32.6 of Chapter 18 of the Code.
[14-401, 14-419, 14-203.1 & 32.7.9.7] Double frontage lots for single family detached and attached
residential uses are prohibited. Revise the plan to no longer have double frontage lots along 5t" street or
request a special exception. The final site plan will not be able to be approved until either there are no
longer double frontage lots or a special exception has been granted to allow the double frontage lots. Two
possible layout changes to avoid the double frontage lots are to:
• Change the section of the private road directly behind the double frontage lots to an "alley".
• Provide a minimum of 20' of common area/open space between 5tn street and the lots. This common
area/open space must be screened as provided in sections 14-419 and 32.7.9.7.
4. [32.7.2.3(a)] Provide in the site plan a sidewalk parallel to 5t' street for the full length of the parcel. Work
with VDOT, engineering and planning to determine the section that will be required for the intersection with
the road. The existing asphalt trail is not of sufficient width and is not properly maintained.
Page 1 of 7
[32.5.1(c) & 32.5.2(a)] Address the following:
• Provide the ZMA number in the zoning area of the data on the coversheet.
• Show the adjoining portion of that parcel with the stormwater pond that will serve this development in
the project area.
• Include information (TMP, Owner, Developer, Zoning, etc.) for the adjoining parcel in the data on the
coversheet since part of that parcel is being utilized to meet stormwater requirements.
• Show the adjoining portion of that parcel with the stormwater pond that will serve this development in
the project area.
• Provide the bearing and distances for the existing boundaries.
• Ensure that the scale for the Existing Conditions and Demolition Plan is correct and that all
measurements can be scaled. 50 scale does not appear to be correct. The distances provided for the
private road easement do not appear to be at 50 scale.
• Revise the setback lines in the site plan to be correct. Address the following:
o Provide garage minimum setback on the coversheet.
o Show the Front Minimum garage setback for the units which front the internal "private street".
The units along the private street do not currently appear to meet the Front Minimum Garage
Setback. IMPORTANT: Note that the front setback is measured either from the edge of the
private street easement (not the property line in the middle of the private street) or any sidewalk
if it is outside of the private road easement.
o Revise the location of the units which front on the internal "private street" so that their garages
meet the minimum Front Setback for garages.
o [NEW COMMENTI UPDATE: April 20, 2018: Front setbacks should be shown for the sides
of the two buildings that adjoin the proposed private street(s).
o [NEW COMMENTI UPDATE: April 20, 2018: Ensure that the front setback, on the two
building along Wahoo Way that have their sides facing the proposed private street, is
measured from whichever is the closer of the ROW of the private street and the back of
the sidewalk along the private street.
o Provide the Non-Infill Minimum Building Separation requirements on the coversheet. Since the
adjoining lot is R-2 the separation requirement for buildings that exceed 35' in height applies.
o Show the Front Minimum and Front Maximum setbacks along 5th street. Ensure that the
buildings meet these requirements. (NOTE: The units along 5t" street are currently shown as
double frontage lots, which are not allowed. See above in the comments on how to address the
double frontage issue.)
o Revise the setbacks for the building with three units located along Wahoo Way, and adjacent to
the R-2 lot, so that the property line adjoining the R-2 parcel is shown as a side setback and not
a rear setback. (NOTE: the proposed property lines for the end unit of the three unit building do
not appear to be complete. The property line down the middle of the alley dead ends at the
gutter and does not connect to any other property line. The lot is not complete and it is
uncertain if all of the property adjacent to that unit, on that end, is meant to be part of that lot or
if some of it is meant to be open space.)
o Show the rear setback lines for all of the units that have their garages along the alleys.
o It appears that the units that have garages facing the rear of the lot, along the private alleys, are
not meeting the 20' minimum rear setback requirement. Revise the lot layout so that the units
meet the requirement. IMPORTANT: Note that the front setback is measured from the edge
private alley easement and not the property line in the middle of the private alley.
• Show present use for the abutting parcel in the parcel information on the existing conditions sheet.
• Provide the required datum reference for the elevation.
6. [32.5.2(b) & 17.3] Revise the "Proposed Use" portion of the coversheet data to specify that the site plan is
a "Cluster Development", or a "Cluster Development" with "Bonus Levels" or increase the lot sized in order
to meet the minimum lot size of a the R-10 "Conventional Development". The lot sizes shown do not meet
the minimum lot size for "Conventional Development".
Page 2 of 7
7. [32.5.2(b) & 32.5.2(n)] The number of required guest spaces are shown to be met within the lot. However,
"Visitor Parking Along Wahoo Way" is listed in the parking calculations. If this continues to be specified on
the site plan address the following:
• Depict the parking in the site plan.
• Dimension the parking in the site plan.
• Ensure that the proposed road section meets all road, parking & pedestrian access requirements.
There does not appear to be enough width in either the existing or the proposed private street
section to include parking even on one side.
• Engineering, Fire & Rescue and planning will have to approve the designs and sections.
• Include a calculation, or both unit and guest parking, in the "Parking" portion of the coversheet data.
8. [32.5.2(b) & 32.5.2(n)] Provide the required recreational facilities/tot lot and address the following:
• Show and include the details of the recreational equipment.
• Show and provide details for the required fencing.
• Show pedestrian connections to the tot lot that includes handicapped ramps and warning strips.
• Ensure that the interior or the fenced area meets the minimum of 200 square feet per residential unit (30
units x 200 square feet = 6,000 square feet required).
9. [32.5.2(e), 32.5.2(p) & 32.7.9] Provide a full landscape plan that provides all required landscaping,
calculations and meets the buffer & landscaping requirements for 32.7.9, the entrance corridor guidelines
and to avoid any double frontage lots. Ensure all calculations and graphics correctly represent the existing
and proposed plantings and planting areas.
10. [32.5.2(e), 32.5.2(p) & 32.7.9.5] Provide street trees on both sides of all private or public streets at the
required spacing for the entrance corridor.
UPDATE: April 20, 2018: Provide street trees on both sides of all private and public streets at the
required spacing for the entrance corridor or request, and be granted, a waiver (32.3.5(b)) for that
requirement from 32.7 for the portions of the private streets that you do not propose to include
street trees. See GREEN highlight in attached markup. Staff may be able to support a waiver for the
portions of the markup not highlighted in GREEN if the additional street trees are provided along all
of the GREEN highlighted areas.
11. [32.5.2(b), 32.5.2(e), 32.5.2(p) & 32.7.9] Provide the value of the maximum amount of paved parking and
other vehicular circulation areas on the coversheet and on the Landscape Plan and utilize it in the
landscaping calculation.
12. [32.5.2(i) & (n)] Address the following:
• Dimension the width, and centerline radii, and corner radii of all roads and alleys and ensure that the
roads meet or exceed minimum road requirements.
• Revise the width of "Road A Private", or the alley converted from "Road A Private", to be 20' in width.
• Provide all road and alley names on the site plan.
• Show on the site plan all of the existing and proposed private street, alley and access easements.
UPDATE: April 20, 2018: Show and dimension on the site plan all of the existing and proposed
private street, alley and access easements. Address the following:
o Ensure that the proposed private street easement width encompasses all required street
improvements (curb & putter, planting strip, street trees, and sidewalk) and is at least 30'
in width, which is the minimum for a private street easement.
o Show the existing private street easement for Wahoo Way as well as the easement for its
proposed extension.
o Show the proposed private alley easements.
o Show the access easements for sidewalks that are proposed on adioinina Droperties.

Comments to be addressed for the Special Exception request for a rear setback reduction for seven units
adjacent to SWP:
Planning staff is unable to support this special exception request. Address the following comments and then
resubmit the request for review:
1. The request is for a reduction in the rear setback for the seven lots (lots 21-27). The three unit building
along Wahoo Way (lots 28-30) also seems to show the building that does not meeting the rear setback
requirement although it is not specified in the special exception request. However, it appears that
instead this is a side yard that is shown as a rear yard in error. Revise the setbacks for this one building
(lots 28-30) appropriately.
2. Revise the property lines for the end unit of the building mentioned above. The property lines for the
end unit, closest to the R-2 adjoining parcel do not appear to be complete. There is a property line
down the middle of the alley that dead ends at the gutter and does not connect to any other property
line.
3. For clarity of the exhibit it is suggested that the following setback errors are also addressed prior to
resubmission of the special exception request:
• Show the rear setback lines for all of the units that have their garages along the private alleys.
• It appears that the units that have garages facing the rear of the lot, along the private alleys, are
not meeting the 20' minimum rear setback requirement. Revise the lot layout so that the units
meet the requirement. IMPORTANT: Note that the front setback is measured from the edge
private alley easement and not the property line in the middle of the private alley.
• Show the Front Minimum garage setback for the units which front the internal "private streets".
The units along the private streets do not currently appear to meet the Front Minimum Garage
Setback. IMPORTANT: Note that the front setback is measured either from the edge of the
private street easement (not the property line in the middle of the private street) or any sidewalk
if it is outside of the private road easement.
• Revise the location of the units which front on the internal "private street" so that their garages
meet the minimum Front Setback for garages.
4. Revise all labels as needed for the setbacks changes specified above.
5. Provide a justification for the special exception request.

Review #1
Dear Ms. Saternye:
The Department of Transportation, Charlottesville Residency Transportation and Land Use
Section, has reviewed the above referenced plan as submitted by Shimp Engineering, dated 20
February 2018, and finds it to be generally acceptable as it appears only sidewalk and
landscaping work are being proposed within the public right-of-way. If further information is
desired, please contact Justin Deel at 434-422-9894.
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 Transportation and Land Use
Section at (434) 422-9399 for information pertaining to this process.
Sincerely,
)Z&44� . 11{x
