Regarding: RE: Pantops Corner Initial Siteplan
Dear Cameron,
As requested we have revised the initial siteplan to address comments 1-5 in your initial siteplan
review comment letter dated July 2nd, 2018. The plan was amended to address those comments as follows:
1) The mailing notification fee of $215.00 has been paid.
2) The Fire and Rescue Review fee of $100.00 has been paid.
3) The existing conditions page of the siteplan has been revised to show slopes that are within the
preserved slopes overlay district which are greater than 25% based on an aerial survey. We
believe this survey to be of greater accuracy than the County GIS topo which the preserved
slopes are based on. We request the initial plan be approved with the condition that a certified
survey be submitted prior to final siteplan approval.
4) We attended 3 separate ARB hearings for the project and obtained approval from the ARB based
on the latest round of revisions which are shown on the submitted plan. Landscape issues and
the orientation of the building relative to route 20 were addressed per ARB request.
5) The parking and travelway configuration at the back of the hotel have been adjusted to meet fire
and rescue standards for the 26' travelway adjacent to a building taller than 30' and the
circulation of the parking area has been designed to allow fire trucks to use the revised
travelways in the parking lot as an appropriate fire apparatus turning area.
We will address the remaining comments when we submit the final site development plans for the project.
Please let me know if you have any additional questions on the plans as submitted. I can be reached via
email: Justin shim -en ineerin .com or at my office via phone at 434-227-5140.
