3rd Review 1-26-2018.pdf
Good Evening Rusty & Todd,
I have finished my review of the revised SP concept plans and it appears that all outstanding comments/issues have
been addressed. Please see the attached review documents from VDH and VDOT.
This application is now ready to go to the Planning Commission for a public hearing. I have coordinated with the clerk
for the PC, and March 6th is the earliest available date for the public hearing. Please confirm that this date works for
you.
Staff will be recommending some conditions to the approval of the special use permit, and these will be included in the
staff report to the Planning Commission and the Board of Supervisors for final approval. The exact language of each
condition is reviewed and approved by the County Attorney prior to the public hearings. However, I wanted to give you
a general idea of what the conditions will state. Some of these may be revised by the County Attorney and/or combined
together. Recommended conditions will include the following:
· The site will be developed in general conformity with the conceptual plan, especially for the following items:
o limits of disturbance
o building orientation
o building mass, shape, and height
o location of buildings and structures
o location of parking areas
o relation of buildings and parking to the street
· All parts, materials and equipment shall be stored within an enclosed building.
· No vehicle awaiting repair shall be located on any portion of the site so as to be visible from any public street or
any residential property, and shall be limited to locations designated on the approved site plan.
· All services shall be performed within an enclosed building.
· No buildings in which services are performed shall be located closer than fifty (50) feet from any residential or
agricultural district
· Vehicles shall not be elevated anywhere on site.
· Vehicles shall be displayed only in areas indicated for display shown on the Conceptual Plan dated 12/20/2018;
Also, please be aware that ACSA, VDOT, and VDH have stated that the following requirements will need to be addressed
prior to County approval of the final site plan. These won’t be conditions on the SP approval since they are standard
requirements of the Zoning Ordinance for all site developments. I just wanted to put it on your radar:
· VDOT approval of an Access Management Exception for the site entrance will be required prior to final site plan
approval by the County.
· ACSA approval of an ACSA Water Construction Plan will be required prior to final site plan approval by the
County.
· Compliance with the Virginia State Department of Health regarding septic system installation. VDH approval of a
construction permit for the proposed septic system will be required prior to final site plan approval by the
County.

Let me know if you have any questions about any of this. I look forward to hearing back from you regarding the March
6th Planning Commission date for the public hearing.

Good afternoon, Cameron.
I have reviewed the site and soil evaluation for the subject property and have spoken by phone with the
designer, Mr. Brent Johnson. Despite being a very difficult and complex site, Mr. Johnson’s proposal appears
to be allowable from a regulatory standpoint.
Please note that the applicant has not submitted an application for a construction permit at this time. I simply
reviewed the submitted site and soil evaluation to determine if the proposal was “feasible”. I will be working
with the applicant and Mr. Johnson in the future in order to issue the construction permit that will allow for
system installation.
If you have any questions, please let me know.

Hi Josh,
Yes, they will have to do both an initial and final site plan. The initial site plan will be sent to you since you are a
member of the Site Review Committee (SRC). If you have comments on the initial that need to be addressed prior to
final site plan approval, we will forward you a copy of the final site plan to review as well.
Did you receive a copy of the soils evaluation report that I included with the revised concept plan that they submitted? I
placed a copy of both in the VDH mailbox here back on the first week of January. I know you had comments on their
first soils evaluation report and you asked for a more details one with the re-submittal.
Let me know your thoughts.

RE: SP201700016 Caliber Collision — Revised October 23, 2017
Dear Mr. Coan:
County and State staff have reviewed your submittal with a revision date of October 23, 2017 for the above
referenced special use permit application. We would be glad to meet with you to discuss any of the comments
below.
Comments from all reviewers are provided below. The major questions/issues that need to be addressed before
moving forward to the Planning Commission are:
• Additional information is needed on the feasibility of using a septic system on TMP 77-11F. If changes to the
conceptual location of the septic system and drainfield are needed, the design of the site may be impacted
such that it does not meet the Neighborhood Model or intrudes into environmental features that should be
preserved. If a septic system cannot be installed, the applicant will need to provide information on how the
development will connect to public sewer.
• The proposed driveway location conflicts with VDOT's access management standards due to the offset
location of an existing driveway on the opposite side of Avon Street. Please see the attached VDOT
comments and letters included below. VDOT recommends mirroring (reversing) the locations of all proposed
improvements shown on the concept plan. However, there appear to be alternatives that may not require
redesigning the site. Please contact Planning Staff to discuss this further.
Planning
Initial comments on how your proposal generally relates to the Comprehensive Plan are provided below. Comments
on conformity with the Comprehensive Plan are provided to the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors as
part of the staff report.
Comprehensive Plan
This parcel measures 4.382 acres and is split zoned between the HC Highway Commercial (approximately 1.61
acres) and RA Rural Areas (approximately 2.77 acres) Zoning Districts. The primary land use designation of the
property is Industrial in the Southern and Western Urban Neighborhoods Master Plan, which calls for uses such
as manufacturing, storage, distribution, office and commercial activities related to industrial use and research
and development. The secondary land use is as designated Parks and Green Systems, which calls for parks,
playgrounds, play fields, greenways, trails, paths, recreational facilities and equipment, plazas, outdoor sitting
areas, natural areas, preservation of stream buffers, floodplains and steep slopes adjacent to rivers and streams.
The Parks and Green Systems Plan shows a greenway/trail and a pedestrian or multi -use path along Moore's
Creek. A pedestrian or multi -use path is also shown the parcel frontage along Avon Street Extended.
1
Neighborhood Model
Projects located within the Development Areas are typically reviewed for consistency with each of the
Neighborhood Model Principles found in the Comprehensive Plan (see Objective 2 in the Development Areas
chapter).
Pedestrian Orientation
This principle is met by providing new sidewalks along Avon Street Extended and by providing a supplemental
sidewalk connection into the body shop main entrance and parking area, as shown in the Parks and Green
Systems Plan.
Mixture of Uses
The body shop use will provide a mixture of uses along Avon Street Extended due to the proximity of the 5th
Street Development retail center.
Neighborhood Centers
Not applicable to the request. The Master Plan calls for a regional retail center south and west of the subject
property, which is already under construction (5th Street Development). The proposed use satisfies the land use
goals called for on surrounding properties because the body shop is a supporting use surrounded by existing
industrial uses. It will also provide employment opportunities to area residents.
Mixture of Housing Types and Affordability
Not applicable to the request due to the Industrial designation called for by the Master Plan.
Interconnected Streets and Transportation Networks
The concept plan shows a proposed shared access easement between TMP 07700-00-00-011FO and the
adjacent Avon Motors property. The easement crosses into both properties. This principle is met; however, see
additional comments later in this letter.
Multimodal Transportation Opportunities
This principle is met by providing additional sidewalks along the property frontage that will connect to the
existing sidewalk south of the parcel along the west side of Avon Street Extended. This satisfies the
Comprehensive Plan goals of providing pedestrian connections along Avon Street Extended.
Parks, Recreational Amenities, and Open Space
The concept plans demonstrate that the wooded portion of the property between Moore's Creek and the
proposed development will be protected. This satisfies the Comprehensive Plan's goals of preserving sensitive
resources such as water quality and biodiversity.
As discussed by residents and CAC members during the Community Meeting, the Master Plan calls for a
greenway/trail and a pedestrian or multi -use path along Moore's Creek. Please consider reserving for dedication
to public use land near Moore's Creek for a potential future greenway or greenway trail. This will strengthen
the application by also satisfying the Comprehensive Plan goals of providing recreational opportunities along
Moore's Creek. Rev. 1: Comment addressed with the Note on Sheet 1 of the Concept Plan. Dan Mahon with
Parks & Recreation has verified that the note will suffice should the County wish to acquire an easement or
land dedication in the future.
Buildings and Spaces of Human Scale
It appears that three sides of the building will face Avon Street Extended. As noted in the ARB comments below,
the proposal will be reviewed by the ARB at their October 20, 2017 meeting. A major element of the SP review
is conformance with Entrance Corridor guidelines. The ARB staff will provide comments to help you meet
Entrance Corridor guidelines. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. Please see ARB comments below for additional
details that will be required to be addressed on the future site plan.
Relegated Parking
This principle is met with parking to the side of and behind the proposed building. Furthermore, the plans show
a fence will be provided around the parking lot as an additional screening measure.
Redevelopment
This principle is not applicable. The property is currently undeveloped.
Respecting Terrain and Careful Grading and Re -Grading of Terrain
The concept plans demonstrate that the parking lot, stormwater management devices, and building will be
located outside of the RA zoned area. The conceptual grading plan appears to demonstrate compliance with
Section 18-21.7 (c) which requires a minimum 20' buffer for grading and construction between commercial and
rural area zoning districts. However if the final design involves grading and construction within the 20' buffer
you will need to request a special exception from the Board of Supervisors. This request may be made now or
during the site plan process.
The Health Department has expressed concern that soils on the property may not be suitable for a septic system
and drainfield, particularly if both features will be located under the parking lot within the HC portion of the
property. If a redesign is required, it may affect grading and the buffer. Please see comments later in this letter.
Rev. 1: Comment not fully addressed. VDH cannot confirm that a septic system is viable in the HC Zoning
District area shown on the Concept Plan based on the soils report provided by the applicant. Further study
of the site is necessary in order for VDH to determine whether a septic system can be located in this area.
Planning Staff cannot recommend approval of the SP until additional information is provided to VDH that
demonstrates the soils can support a septic system within the HC zoned portion of the property.
Clear Boundaries with the Rural Area
This principle is not applicable. The property is located with the designated Development Areas.
Community Meeting
The meeting held on September 21, 2017 at Monticello High School during the 5th & Avon Community Advisory
Committee satisfied the requirements for a community meeting as described in Section 33.4 of the Zoning
Ordinance. Concerns were raised about lighting and screening. Site lighting will need to meet the County's
lighting standards. Please see comments about screening and fencing later in this letter.
The Planning Division also comments on the conceptual plan and other requirements of County Code. These
comments are provided below.
Conceptual Plan
• Please add the word "Provided" to the Parking table on the conceptual plans. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
• Please state the full Tax Map Parcel number of the property, and provide the owner name and address on
the concept drawings. Please include the most recent instrument with a recorded plat (deed book and page
number). Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
• Please state all applicable zoning overlay districts affecting the property on the concept plans. These
include the EC- Entrance Corridor, the State Dam Break Inundation Zone, AIA —Airport Impact Overlay, FH
— Flood Hazard Overlay, and the Steep Slopes — Preserved Overlay Districts. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
• On both concept plans, please show the limits of the Steep Slopes — Preserved Overlay Districts and state
the source. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
• Please clarify the building height data on the conceptual plans. Does the "Maximum Building Height: 40"'
mean the maximum building height permitted by Code? If so, this figure is incorrect because the maximum
building height in the HC district is 65' according to Section 18-21.4 of the Zoning Ordinance. The minimum
step back requirements for any story that begins above forty (40) feet in height or for each story above the
third story, whichever is less, in height shall be as provided in section 18-4.20. Rev. 1: See Zoning comments
below. Please amend the "Maximum Building Height" line in the Site Data table on Sheet 1 to state
"Maximum Building Height Permitted: 65'."
• As required by Section 18-32.7.9.7 of the Zoning Ordinance, commercial and industrial uses shall be
screened from adjacent rural areas zoning districts. Please provide more details regarding the materials of
the 6' opaque fence that will surround the HC portion of the property. Also, Section 18-32.7.9.7 (d) calls for
fences used for screening purposes to be a minimum 6' in height, please consider a taller fence in order to
address the concerns expressed by adjacent property owners regarding the views of the property during
the winter months and at night. This will also help demonstrate compliance with Section 5.1.31 of the
Zoning Ordinance regarding vehicles awaiting repair not being visible from residential properties and public
streets. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
• The concept drawings do not identify the location and sizes of any loading spaces. Please be advised that
the site plan will need to show loading spaces per Section 18-4.12.13 of the Zoning Ordinance. Rev. 1:
Comment addressed, two loading spaces are now shown.
• Please label the proposed shared access easement on the concept plans. Rev. 1: Comment addressed,
shared access easement already exists, original comment made in error.
• Please refer to VDOT comments regarding approval of an Access Management Exception for the proposed
entrance onto Avon Street Extended. The proposed location may not meet VDOT standards for approval,
which may alter the overall site layout. Please provide a note on the concept plans stating that "the
entrance onto Avon Street Extended is subject to approval of an Access Management Exception by VDOT."
Rev. 1: Comment not addressed, please see VDOT comments below. The Access Management Exception
request has been denied by VDOT. VDOT recommends mirroring (reversing) the locations of all
improvements shown on the concept plan so that the proposed entrance is on the southern property
border as opposed to the north. However, there appear to be other alternatives to redesigning the site,
which Plannine Staff can discuss with you further.
• Please be advised that, following approval by the Board of Supervisors, an initial and final site plan
application will need to be submitted, reviewed, and approved by the County in order to commence
construction on the property following the Special Use Permit. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
• Regarding use of a septic system in the designated Development Areas, the applicant must provide
additional information to County staff regarding the cost of constructing public sewer to the property in
order to evaluate the Public Water and Sewer Evaluation request to allow an on-site septic system. Please
provide an estimated cost to install a sewer line for public connection (not including ACSA connection fees)
with the next submittal, which will be forwarded to the Director of Community Development for review.
Rev. 1: Comment partially addressed. The Director of Community Development has approved the Public
Water and Sewer Evaluation request, see attached. However, please see comments related to VDH
approval of the proposed septic system and drainfields. If a septic system cannot be installed, the
anolicant will need to demonstrate how the development will connect to public sewer.
• As indicated by VDH, a soils evaluation should be conducted sooner rather than later. The Zoning Division
has confirmed that onsite sewage systems and subsurface drainfields are defined as accessory uses
incidental to the body shop. Section 18-3.1 requires accessory uses to be located upon land zoned to allow
the primary use, building or structure. Staff cannot recommend approval of the SP without additional
confirmation from VDH and the Engineering Division that an onsite sewage system and drainfield can be
located within the HC zoned portion of the property. Please refer to VDH and Engineering comments below
for additional information. Rev. 1: Comment not fully addressed. VDH cannot confirm that a septic system
is viable in the HC Zoning District area shown on the Concept Plan based on the soils report provided by
the applicant. Further study of the site is necessary in order for VDH to determine whether a septic
system and drainfield can be located in the area identified on the concept plan. If the project is dependent
on installation of a private septic system instead of connecting to public sewer, Planning Staff cannot
recommend approval of the SP until VDH verifies that the applicant has demonstrated that the soils are
capable of supporting a septic system within the HC zoned portion of the property.
Per Engineering comments below, if connecting to public sewer is a viable option for the applicant to
proceed with this project, please demonstrate on the Concept Plan how public sewer lines will be
I
extended to the property. ACSA will need to review the proposed extension before Planning Staff can
recommend approval of the SP.
• New Comment 1st Revision: The concept plan shows that 23 customer/public parking spaces are required,
but only 22 are provided. Please amend the concept plan so that the minimum number of spaces are
provided based on Section 4.12.6.
• New Comment 15` Revision: Please amend the rear and side building setbacks listed in the Site Data table
on Sheet 1, as requested in the Zoning comments below. Please do not change the front building setbacks
as stated in the Site Data table, they are currently correct.

an option on this plan. If shown, offsite easements may be required.
Virginia Department of Health —Joshua Kirtley, joshua.kirtlev@vdh.virginia.gov
1. As indicated in a letter from Brent Johnson dated 10/25/2017, the site contains "fill material". The letter
goes on to indicate that it is not possible to confirm that an onsite sewage disposal system is viable for the
subject property without further study. Based upon my understanding of the work that has been completed
to date for the property, I cannot recommend approval at this time. Please inform the applicant that further
testing/evaluation will be required in order to confirm whether or not an onsite sewage disposal system
can be permitted.
VDOT — Adam Moore, 434-422-9782, adam.moore@vdot.virginia.gov
1. The required Access Management exception request for entrance spacing has been denied; please see our
17 November 2017 letter.
2. The Department recommends mirroring the site so that the entrance can be moved to the south which will
likely achieve the required entrance spacing, no longer needing an approved exception. If you have
questions please feel free to contact me at (434) 422-9782.

Re: Caliber Collision Access Management Exception Request
Dear Mr. Coan:
We have reviewed the above referenced AM -E dated November 6, 2017 and at this time
Residency staff does not support the exception based on the amount of conflicting left turns at
the offset opposing commercial entrance.
The Department recommends mirroring the site so that the entrance can be moved to the south
which will likely achieve required entrance spacing, no longer needing an approved exception.
If you have any questions please feel free to contact me directly at (434)422-9782.

RE: SP201700016 Caliber Collision
Dear Mr. Coan:
Fax (434) 972-4126
County and State staff have reviewed your initial submittal for the request to construct a body shop on Tax Map
Parcel (TMP) 07700-00-00-011F0. The subject parcel is located on the west side of State Route 742 (Avon Street
Extended) abutting the property located at 1570 Avon Street Extended to the north.
Comments from all reviewers are provided below. The major questions/issues that need to be addressed before
moving forward to the Planning Commission are:
• Feasibility of using a septic system due to the soils located in this area of the County. If changes to the
conceptual location of a septic system are needed, the design of the site may be impacted such that it does
not meet the Neighborhood Model or intrudes into environmental features that should be preserved.
• Creating a new driveway as shown may pose an issue from an access management standpoint due to the
offset location of an existing driveway on the opposite side of Avon Street.
Planning
Initial comments on how your proposal generally relates to the Comprehensive Plan are provided below. Comments
on conformity with the Comprehensive Plan are provided to the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors as
part of the staff report.
Comprehensive Plan
This parcel measures 4.382 acres and is split zoned between the HC Highway Commercial (approximately 1.61
acres) and RA Rural Areas (approximately 2.77 acres) Zoning Districts. The primary land use designation of the
property is Industrial in the Southern and Western Urban Neighborhoods Master Plan, which calls for uses such
as manufacturing, storage, distribution, office and commercial activities related to industrial use and research
and development. The secondary land use is as designated Parks and Green Systems, which calls for parks,
playgrounds, play fields, greenways, trails, paths, recreational facilities and equipment, plazas, outdoor sitting
areas, natural areas, preservation of stream buffers, floodplains and steep slopes adjacent to rivers and streams.
The Parks and Green Systems Plan shows a greenway/trail and a pedestrian or multi -use path along Moore's
Creek. A pedestrian or multi -use path is also shown the parcel frontage along Avon Street Extended.
Neighborhood Model
Projects located within the Development Areas are typically reviewed for consistency with each of the
Neighborhood Model Principles found in the Comprehensive Plan (see Objective 2 in the Development Areas
chapter).
1
Pedestrian Orientation
This principle is met by providing new sidewalks along Avon Street Extended and by providing a supplemental
sidewalk connection into the body shop main entrance and parking area, as shown in the Parks and Green
Systems Plan.
Mixture of Uses
The body shop use will provide a mixture of uses along Avon Street Extended due to the proximity of the 5"
Street Development retail center.
Neiehborhood Centers
Not applicable to the request. The Master Plan calls for a regional retail center south and west of the subject
property, which is already under construction (St" Street Development). The proposed use satisfies the land use
goals called for on surrounding properties because the body shop is a supporting use surrounded by existing
industrial uses. It will also provide employment opportunities to area residents.
Mixture of Housing Types and Affordability
Not applicable to the request due to the Industrial designation called for by the Master Plan.
Interconnected Streets and Transportation Networks
The concept plan shows a proposed shared access easement between TMP 07700-00-00-011FO and the
adjacent Avon Motors property. The easement crosses into both properties. This principle is met; however, see
additional comments later in this letter.
Multimodal Transportation Opportunities
This principle is met by providing additional sidewalks along the property frontage that will connect to the
existing sidewalk south of the parcel along the west side of Avon Street Extended. This satisfies the
Comprehensive Plan goals of providing pedestrian connections along Avon Street Extended.
Parks, Recreational Amenities, and Open Space
The concept plans demonstrate that the wooded portion of the property between Moore's Creek and the
proposed development will be protected. This satisfies the Comprehensive Plan's goals of preserving sensitive
resources such as water quality and biodiversity.
As discussed by residents and CAC members during the Community Meeting, the Master Plan calls for a
greenway/trail and a pedestrian or multi -use path along Moore's Creek. Please consider reserving for dedication
to public use land near Moore's Creek for a potential future greenway or greenway trail. This will strengthen
the application by also satisfying the Comprehensive Plan goals of providing recreational opportunities along
Moore's Creek.
Buildings and Spaces of Human Scale
It appears that three sides of the building will face Avon Street Extended. As noted in the ARB comments below,
the proposal will be reviewed by the ARB at their October 20, 2017 meeting. A major element of the SP review
is conformance with Entrance Corridor guidelines. The ARB staff will provide comments to help you meet
Entrance Corridor guidelines.
Relegated Parking
This principle is met with parking to the side of and behind the proposed building. Furthermore, the plans show
a fence will be provided around the parking lot as an additional screening measure.
Redevelopment
This principle is not applicable. The property is currently undeveloped.
Respecting Terrain and Careful Grading and Re -Grading of Terrain
The concept plans demonstrate that the parking lot, stormwater management devices, and building will be
located outside of the RA zoned area. The conceptual grading plan appears to demonstrate compliance with
2
Section 18-21.7 (c) which requires a minimum 20' buffer for grading and construction between commercial and
rural area zoning districts. However if the final design involves grading and construction within the 20' buffer
you will need to request a special exception from the Board of Supervisors. This request may be made now or
during the site plan process.
The Health Department has expressed concern that soils on the property may not be suitable for a septic system
and drainfield, particularly if both features will be located under the parking lot within the HC portion of the
property. If a redesign is required, it may affect grading and the buffer. Please see comments later in this letter.
Clear Boundaries with the Rural Area
This principle is not applicable. The property is located with the designated Development Areas.
Community Meeting
The meeting held on September 21, 2017 at Monticello High School during the 5t" & Avon Community Advisory
Committee satisfied the requirements for a community meeting as described in Section 33.4 of the Zoning
Ordinance. Concerns were raised about lighting and screening. Site lighting will need to meet the County's
lighting standards. Please see comments about screening and fencing later in this letter.
The Planning Division also comments on the conceptual plan and other requirements of County Code. These
comments are provided below.
Conceptual Plan
• Please add the word "Provided" to the Parking table on the conceptual plans.
• Please state the full Tax Map Parcel number of the property, and provide the owner name and address on
the concept drawings. Please include the most recent instrument with a recorded plat (deed book and page
number).
• Please state all applicable zoning overlay districts affecting the property on the concept plans. These
include the EC- Entrance Corridor, the State Dam Break Inundation Zone, AIA — Airport Impact Overlay, FH
— Flood Hazard Overlay, and the Steep Slopes — Preserved Overlay Districts.
• On both concept plans, please show the limits of the Steep Slopes — Managed Overlay Districts and state
the source.
• Please clarify the building height data on the conceptual plans. Does the "Maximum Building Height: 40"'
mean the maximum building height permitted by Code? If so, this figure is incorrect because the maximum
building height in the HC district is 65' according to Section 18-21.4 of the Zoning Ordinance. The minimum
step back requirements for any story that begins above forty (40) feet in height or for each story above the
third story, whichever is less, in height shall be as provided in section 18-4.20.
• As required by Section 18-32.7.9.7 of the Zoning Ordinance, commercial and industrial uses shall be
screened from adjacent rural areas zoning districts. Please provide more details regarding the materials of
the 6' opaque fence that will surround the HC portion of the property. Also, Section 18-32.7.9.7 (d) calls for
fences used for screening purposes to be a minimum 6' in height, please consider a taller fence in order to
address the concerns expressed by adjacent property owners regarding the views of the property during
the winter months and at night. This will also help demonstrate compliance with Section 5.1.31 of the
Zoning Ordinance regarding vehicles awaiting repair not being visible from residential properties and public
streets.
• The concept drawings do not identify the location and sizes of any loading spaces. Please be advised that
the site plan will need to show loading spaces per Section 18-4.12.13 of the Zoning Ordinance.
3
• Please label the proposed shared access easement on the concept plans.
• Please refer to VDOT comments regarding approval of an Access Management Exception for the proposed
entrance onto Avon Street Extended. The proposed location may not meet VDOT standards for approval,
which may alter the overall site layout. Please provide a note on the concept plans stating that "the
entrance onto Avon Street Extended is subject to approval of an Access Management Exception by VDOT."
• Please be advised that, following approval by the Board of Supervisors, an initial and final site plan
application will need to be submitted, reviewed, and approved by the County in order to commence
construction on the property following the Special Use Permit.
• Regarding use of a septic system in the designated Development Areas, the applicant must provide
additional information to County staff regarding the cost of constructing public sewer to the property in
order to evaluate the Public Water and Sewer Evaluation request to allow an on-site septic system. Please
provide an estimated cost to install a sewer line for public connection (not including ACSA connection fees)
with the next submittal, which will be forwarded to the Director of Community Development for review.
• As indicated by VDH, a soils evaluation should be conducted sooner rather than later. The Zoning Division
has confirmed that onsite sewage systems and subsurface drainfields are defined as accessory uses
incidental to the body shop. Section 18-3.1 requires accessory uses to be located upon land zoned to allow
the primary use, building or structure. Staff cannot recommend approval of the SP without additional
confirmation from VDH and the Engineering Division that an onsite sewage system and drainfield can be
located within the HC zoned portion of the property. Please refer to VDH and Engineering comments below
for additional information.

Review #1
Dear Mr. Langille:
The Department of Transportation, Charlottesville Residency Transportation and Land Use
Section, has reviewed the above referenced plan as submitted by Freeland & Kauffman, Inc.,
dated 17 August 2017, and offers the following comments:
1. There is an existing entrance on the adjacent parcel that does not meet the minimum
entrance spacing (335') for a 45 mph Collector road. An Access Management Exception
is required. Please see our letter, dated 25 September 2017, regarding this matter. This
and all other entrances in proximity to the proposed entrance must be shown on the Site
Plan.
2. Turn lane warrants must be included on the Site Plan, and if required turn lanes must be
provided. See Appendix F of the Road Design Manual for turn lane warrants and required
geometry.
3. Intersection sight distances must be shown on the Site Plan and profiles provided.
4. Entrance geometry must be provided on the Site Plan. Note that the minimum radius for a
commercial entrance without a separate truck access is 42 feet.
5. Note that the final site plan must show conformance with the VDOT Road Design
Manual Appendices B(1) and F, as well as any other applicable standards, regulations or
other requirements.
Please provide two copies of the revised plan along with a comment response letter. If further
information is desired, please contact Justin Deel at 434-422-9894.

Re: Caliber Collision Access Management Exception Request
Dear Mr. Coan:
We have reviewed the above referenced AM -E dated August 18, 2017 and have the following
comments:
1. There appears to be an entrance on the opposite side of Avon Street that is offset
from the proposed entrance to Caliber Collision. The conflicting lefts that this
entrance would create could create a safety concern. Please add to your analysis
an evaluation of these movements.
Please provide a revised AM -E or if the exception is no longer desired, a site layout that meets
current access management standards.
Sincerely,

Good afternoon, Cameron. Thanks for your email.
I think that it would be good if I came to the meeting on Wednesday to discuss this proposal. As such, I will
plan on being there at 12:00.

Subject: SP201700016 - Caliber Collision Special Use Permit
Hi Josh,
I am emailing you regarding a special use permit application that was sent over to you last week. The project number
and name are listed above in the attachment. The parcel that the use is proposed on lies within the ACSA water & sewer
service area. However, the applicant wants to install a septic tank instead of connecting to the public sewer lines.
This application is different from our standard site plan and subdivision plan reviews. Special Use Permits follow a
legislative review and approval process with the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors. If they get approved,
then the standard initial and final site plan review will take place. Nevertheless, County staff does review the Special Use
Permit concept plan drawings and provides comments to the applicant before taking it to the Board.
I know VDH doesn't typically get involved in legislative reviews such as this. I wanted to put this one on your radar so
you can take a look and see if you notice any issues with proposing a septic tank on the property. Basically, if you see
anything that would preclude VDH approving a septic tank based on the information they submitted, please let me
know. Our review comments are due on September 29tH
There will also be a meeting here at the County Office building on McIntire Road next Wednesday from 12:00 -12:20 PM
where staff will discuss the proposal amongst ourselves. If you wish to attend, please let me know and I can send you a
meeting invite through Microsoft Outlook.
Thanks,
Cameron
