(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 to the Albemarle County Code.] Requirements: 1. Sheet 2 is not the approved Application Plan. Revise to include the approved plan that was modified at the Board of Supervisors meeting to not include the trailhead at Ashwood Blvd. Link to approved plan. 2. [Application Plan; COD; Proffers] The greenway buffer that is being shown appears to only include the WPO buffer, however the ZMA showed a larger greenway buffer that was outside of the WPO area and included slopes. Show the buffer that was approved with the ZMA. There are a number of lots being shown within the buffer and also have preserved slopes and the plan needs to accurately show the greenway/buffer areas, and adjust the lots to be located outside of the buffer/preserved slopes. In addition, these areas needs to state that they will be dedicated for public use per proffer #2. It is recommended that these dedications happen with final subdivision plat. See below and attached. 2.4 Greens ace and Amenities Brookhill will feature over l00 acres of Greenspace This Greenspace represents mare than 35% of the entu�e cnmmuntty's land area, and includes the Buffer areas, the Greenway and streatn buffers, parks and civic amenity areas, and general ❑pen space The Greenspace wtll no€ only provide a linear trail system throughout the community, but shall also preserve envu-onrnentally sensttive areas such as steep slopes, streams, and stream buffers A!1 of xhe Greenspace areas shall be located outside of private lots and right�f--way Ali Greenspace within Brookhill, with the exception of the Greeenway, wall be owned and rnatntauted by the Homeowners Assactatton.

Revise the units so that they are not so far from the street. 4. [COD Route 29 Buffer] Lots 1-12 are within the 29 buffer. Revise so the lots are not located within that buffer. 5. [14-419; 32.7.9.7] Lots 13-31 and 47-57 are double frontage lots. A minimum of 20 buffer/landscape area is required between the lots and the right of way to be planted in accordance with 32.7.9.7. This requirement is not being met, revise. 6. [32.5.2(a)] Preserved slopes, greenway area, etc should be shown on the layout sheets. In addition, label the 29 buffer on the grading sheets to ensure that grading proposed is within the 30' area only. 7. [COD; 32.5.2(a)] Show the height of all retaining walls. Make sure they are in accordance with the requirements stated in the COD on pages 23-24. 8. [ZMA; Preserved slopes] There is grading shown for lots within the preserved slopes. Grading is not permitted outside of what was outlined in the ZMA. Lots and grading for lots must not impact the preserved slopes. Revise. 9. [ZMA Application Plan; Proffer 2] There is a trail shown adjacent to Block 11 within the greenway area. This trail should be shown on the plan sheets. Has the trail started or been established? 10. [Proffer 1] Polo Grounds construction for Phase 1 will need to begin prior to the 15Y building permit and complete prior to the SOth building permit/dwelling. Route 29 improvements must be substantially completed prior to the 50t" building permit/dwelling. 11. [32.5.2(a)] Sheet 5A does not show the extents and information for the civic/park area. It references Matchline sheet 7, however, sheet 7 does not show this information, it is shown on Sheet 8. Revise so the correct reference is shown. 12. [32.5.2 (a)] State the equipment for the playground area as well as what kind of sport court is being proposed. Show the materials and dimensions. 13. [32.7.9] The landscaping plan has none of the required information regarding the proposed landscaping, and is not clear. A detailed landscape plan in accordance with the ordinance is required for final site plan at a scale of 1"=30'. The park is also not shown on this sheet. See comments regarding double frontage lots. It appears that required landscaping is located with lots, if so, an easement on those lots will be required. Additional comments will be given at final site plan once a full landscape plan with more detail is submitted. 14. [COD; 32.7.9] It is not clear if the 30' buffer will need to be replanted in this area. If so, show proposed landscaping. 15. [COD page 11; 14-233; 14-234] Per the regulations the houses are required to primarily face public streets or amenity areas. There are private streets proposed that will need to be approved. Why are these private streets as opposed to public? A justification in accordance with 14-234 will need to be submitted for review. 16. [14-302(A)] All easements, proposed and required need to be shown, including dimensions, etc. Please contact Megan Nedostup at the Department of Community Development 296-5832 ext. 3004 for further information. 3
