Review #1
Dear Mr. Newberry:
The Department of Transportation, Charlottesville Residency Transportation and Land Use
Section, has reviewed the above referenced plan as submitted by Timmons Group, dated 8 May
2017, and offers the following comments:
1. Based on this plan is it not clear whether Orion Road will be a public or private street. If
it is to be a public street, the entrance 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, in which case comments can be provided.
2. Please demonstrate that existing drainage structures being tied -in to are adequate for the
developed site.
Please provide two copies of the revised plan along with a comment response letter. If further
information is desired, please contact Justin DeeI 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,

RE: Priority Review of Old Trail Block 6 - Final Site Plan (SDP201700044)
Ron and I discussed both the parking information he was provided in his discussions with Dave Brockman and also what
is shown on the site plan.
The site plan parking table on Sheet C4.1 should be updated to include only the 17% shared parking proposed for Phase
1 of Block 6. The parking table can be updated with future site plans as the block builds out or we can continue to work
on the parking study for the rest of the block as this site plan moves forward. In order to approve this shared parking
request under Section 4.12.10, the applicant must provide data/justification that each use participating in the shared
parking arrangement will experience parking demands at different times.
4.12.10 SHARED PARKING
Shared parking allows parking spaces to be shared among two (2) or more uses that typically experience peak parking demands at
different times and is located on the same lot or on nearby lots. Because parking spaces are shared, the total number of parking spaces
that would otherwise be required may be reduced. In addition to all other applicable requirements of this section, the following
requirements shall apply to shared parking:
a. Authority to reduce aggregate number of parking spaces. The zoning administrator may reduce the aggregate minimum number of
required parking spaces, provided that each use participating in the shared parking experiences peak parking demands at different
times. The zoning administrator shall base this decision on the particular circumstances of the application.
b. Parking study. Before making the decision to allow shared parking and to reduce the aggregate number of parking spaces, the
zoning administrator may require the applicant to submit a parking study to determine the peak parking demand periods or other
information needed to determine the viability of shared parking under the particular circumstances of the application.
c. Effect of reserved parking spaces. Parking spaces reserved for specific individuals or classes of individuals shall not be counted
toward the parking spaces that could be shared, except for those spaces designated and marked for use only by handicapped persons.
d. Maximum reduction. The aggregate number of parking spaces required for all uses participating in the shared parking shall not be
reduced by more than thirty-five (35) percent.
