New 5/16/18:
1. Title Sheet: Recommend revise signature block to read Albemarle County Engineer.
Sheet C4
2. Provide VDOT detail for CG-12, 2-ramp configuration (ramps at termini, ped xing pavement markings).
3. Provide VDOT ref to pedestrian crossing pavement marking specifications. Provide detail showing bar
width; paint type, etc. (Note: experience with accelerated wear of pavement markings on Meeting Street
lends justification to need for specification /detail.)
4. Provide Auto -turn for dumpster. Use typ. local vendor truck wheelbase. Design cannot be approved unless
trucks can access and service dumpster without 3-point turn. Access must be direct, and cause no damage
to curb when truck is reversing. Current dumpster orientation appears problematic.
5. Identify New GV feature, northernmost parking space. Locate any gas appliance outside parking spaces,
for safety and ease of servicing. New GV is inaccessible if a vehicle occupies this parking space.
C5:
6. Reverse direction of flow arrow between storm sewer structures B 1 and ST7.
7. New 10' X 6' water vault will not fit in 5' sidewalk; revise to show proper scale.
8. Provide bedding detail for HDPE in trafficked condition; structural backfill should extend (at a minimum)
from the top of the pipe to 6-inches above the pipe (ref. hus://www.prinsco.copyw -
content/uploads/2014/06/Minimum-and-Maximum-Burial-Depth-per-AASHTO-Tech-Note3.pdf ).
9. C7: Provide Detail 3 on C7 (dumpster pad concrete slab detail). Detail 3 is ref. on sheet 10.
10. C10: Revise Parking Area Pavement detail. Provide pavement design based on VDOT Pavement Design
Guide, rev. Feb 2014. Provide Dr, DP, using ADT =200. Note: 3" of SM-9.5A and 8" VDOT 21A base
stone would satisfy design criteria and meet VDOT design guidelines. Other options are also available.
