Memorandum
To: W. Morris Foster
From: Paty Saternye- Senior Planner
Division: Planning Services
Date: June 22, 2018
Subject: SUB-2018- Richard P. Palermo – Rural Subdivision
The County of Albemarle Planning Division will grant or recommend approval of the
Final Plat referenced above once the following comments have been addressed: [Each
comment is preceded by the applicable reference, which is to the Subdivision/Zoning
Ordinances unless otherwise specified.]
1. [14-302 (A)(10)] Right of further division of proposed lots. Revise the
development rights note by addressing the following:
a) For the development rights for TM 89-61 the number of acres appears to be
wrong for the 31 acre rule. The plat that subdivided this parcel stated that the
portion of the parcel the south of the road could have lots of less than 21
acres comprising no more than 15.08 acres, not the 15.92 listed in the note.
Revise the note.
b) Because of the error specified in the item above, the number of acres
specified for Tracts 1 and 3 are not correct. Revise the note so that the total
number of acres, for parcels under 21 acres, for both tracts 1 & 2 combined is
15.08 and not 15.92.
c) Revise the development rights for the existing TM 89-63B so that it specifies
the plat that created the parcel and assigned it development rights (DB2009
PG 724) instead of the much older plat that did not show the parcel in its
current state and specified development rights significantly below those being
specified in this plat and the more recent plat.
d) Include in the development right note information on the revised/combined
TM 89-63B. In that added section of the note specify that the development
rights for the existing TM 89-63B can only be used within its 5.45 acre area
and that the development rights for Tract 1 can only be uses in its 23.86 acre
portion of the proposed parcel. Example wording would be “The 5.45 acres
from TM 89-63B retains 2 development rights and if utilized they shall only be
used within the bounds of the 5.45 acre portion of the new 29.31 acre parcel.
Tract 1, which is the 23.86 acre portion of TM 89-61, is being added to TM
89-63B and is assigned 2 development rights and if utilized they shall only be
used within the bounds of the 23.86 portion of the new 29.31 acre parcel.”

2. [14-302 (B)(1)] General Information. When revising the plat include a date of last
revision on the plat. This date should be updated prior to each resubmission.
3. [14-302 (A)(5) & 14-303 (L)] Public easements; Public utility, drainage and sight
distance easements. Specify the owner, deed book and page number, and width
of all the public easements crossing or within either of the subject parcels. Also,
show the location and dimensions of each public utility, drainage and/or sight
distance easement on the plat.
4. [14-302 (A)(3)] Existing or platted streets. Revise to accurately show, and
dimension, the prescriptive road easement in both TM 89-61 and TM 89-63B.
5. [14-302 (A)(9)] Building Sites on proposed lots. Revise the plat to include the
required 30,000 square foot building site rectangles for tracts 2 & 3. Ensure
that all requirements of 4.2.1 & 4.2.2 are met and that critical slopes are not
crossed or impacted in order to reach the building site.
6. [14-302 (A)(11)] Instrument creating property proposed for subdivision. Revise the
deed book and page number for the plat that is specified in the County Development
Rights note for TM 89-63B. The plat include in the recorded document specified does not
show the current lot configuration or specify the development rights assigned to the
parcel. Either list DB2009 PG 724 or specify another deed book and page number
that is more appropriate.
7. [14-309; 14-310] Soils evaluation; Health Director Approval. Soils work must be
submitted to the County. The County will forward it to the Health Department for
review. Approval of the soil evaluation by the Health Department is required for
both Tract 2 & Tract 3 before approval the subdivision will be final.
8. [14-302 (A)(15)] Identification of all owners and certain interest holders.
Include the addresses of all owners of the parcels as well as any holders of any
easements affecting the property. The two parcels should be listed separately and
provide the individual owner names. The County’s GIS information shows two different
owners and two different addresses. Ensure that this information is correct and if it is
different from the GIS provide information supporting this to the plan reviewer.
9. [14-302 (B)(4)] Places of burial. If there are any burial sites show them on the
plat.
10. [14-302 (B)(7)] Reservoir watershed; agricultural-forestal district. Update the
watershed designation to specify that the parcel lies within the Moore’s Creek
Watershed.
11. [14-302 (B)(8)] Yards. Revise the yards to be correct for the RA zone.
Address the following:
a) The front setback is incorrect. Revise it to be 75’.
b) Include the setback for internal roads in the note.
12. [14-303 (E)] Dimension standards and information on all lots, streets, alleys,
easements, and shared driveways. Revise the plat to include all required
curvilinear dimensions for any curved portion of the property boundaries. This
shall include radius, central angle, are length, and tangent distances.
13. [14-303 (H)] Monuments. Revise the plat to include monuments for the
triangular portion of the property lines along the road.

14. [14-302 (A)(4), (6) & 14-303 (E)] Private Easements; Alleys and shared
driveways; Dimension standards and information on all lots, streets, alleys,
easements, and shared driveways. Label the “50’ Joint Access Easement” as
either “New” or “Existing”. If “Existing” provide the deed book and page number

the cover sheet that states that it will not be available.
18. [Comment] If a stream crossing will be required to reach a future building site the
crossing will need to meet the requirements of the Water Protection Ordinance.
