RE: ARB-201940: Cascadia Office Building, Final Site Plan (second review)
(TMP 078000000005E0)
Dear Mr. Schafer,
The Albemarle County Architectural Review Board reviewed the above noted item at its meeting on
Monday, July 15, 2019. The Board unanimously approved the request, pending staff administrative
approval of the following conditions:
1. The material/color samples provided at the meeting are appropriate.
2. Choose a plant that will fully screen the mechanical equipment at planting without an
overwhelming mature height.
3. Coordinate lighting (lamp type, finish color, color temperature) with that in the residential
development. Include a luminaire schedule on the lighting plan with all standard information.
Indicate the color temperature of the proposed lamps. Indicate fixture finish.
4. Revise the landscape plan to clearly show the new locations for relocated trees 13-19 and
correct the remaining RL-13 through RL-19 notations near the 4 new AG.
5. Coordinate the 4 London Planetrees drawn on the plan with the 5 noted in the landscape
key.
6. Correct/clarify the grayed -out trees located west of the building and the western property line
for conformity with the approved and proposed plans.
7. Label the tree located east of the entrance into the site and coordinate it with the landscape
key.
8. Clarify why three trees located north of the dumpster on the "approved" landscape plan are
not shown on the current plan.
9. Clarify why 3 Crypotmeria are drawn on the plan and 7 are noted in the schedule.
10. Include updated revision dates on the site plan.
11. Correct the sheet numbers of the landscape and lighting plans.
12. Note that separate sign applications are required for new wail and freestanding signs. Sign
location and design cannot be approved with the site plan; they are provided at this time for
information only. Confirm the orientation of the monument sign. Note that landscaping is
required to fully integrate and coordinate the sign into the development.
Please provide:
1. One full set of revised drawings addressing each of these conditions. Include updated
revision dates on each drawing.
2. A memo including detailed responses indicating how each condition has been satisfied. If
changes other than those requested have been made, identify those changes in the memo
also. Highlighting the changes in the drawing with "clouding" or by other means will facilitate
review and approval.
3. The attached "Revised Application Submittal" form. This form must be returned with your
revisions to ensure proper tracking and distribution.
When staffs review of this information indicates that all conditions of approval have been met, a
Certificate of Appropriateness may be issued.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
Margaret Maliszewski
