Home My WebLink AboutARB201900105 Review Comments Miscellaneous Submittal 2019-09-25FD COUNTY OF ALBEMARLE Department of Community Development 401 McIntire Road, North Wing Charlottesville, Virginia 22902-4596 Phone (434) 296-5832 September 25, 2019 Dianne Williams Moore Sign Corporation 901 Old Bermuda 100 Road Chester VA 23836 RE: ARB 201900105 Walgreens - Signs Dear Ms. Williams Fax (434) 972-4126 I have reviewed the above -noted sign applications. The following revisions are requested to make the proposal consistent with the Entrance Corridor Sign Guidelines. General sign comments: 1. Submit the appropriate application fee. There is no Comprehensive Sign Plan (CSP) for this building. Comprehensive Sign Plans are only created for multi -tenant buildings. Therefore, on the Application and Checklist for Sign Permit, the wrong check box was checked for "ARB review" and the required fee was not paid. The first of the check boxes applied to this sign and the fee required is $129. Submit the fee. The fee must be received before a certificate of appropriateness can be issued. 2. Revise the sign plan such that the proposed signs, in the photo realistic elevation views, are clearly visible. The "Pharmacy" sign cannot be seen, and the "Walgreens" sign is not clearly represented, in the elevations. 3. On Sheet 2 there are issues with the sign number and locations. Address the following on that sheet: a) Sign # 3 & 4 are shown on the west side of the building but appear to be on the east side of the building on Sheet 5. b) The Free-standing monument sign is labeled as #9, but it is specified to be #8 on Sheet 15. c) The direction sign on the edge of Route 250 is labeled as #8, but it is specified to be #10 on Sheet 17. d) The direction sign on the edge of Rolkin Road is not shown, but it is specified to be #9 on Sheet 17. e) Update the charts if appropriate. An example is that the "Scope of Work" lists signs #3 & 4 on the "Left (northwest) Elevation" however, sheet 5 shows them on the southeast side of the building. 4. Provide on the sign plan the Pantone color formula number equivalent for each portion of all signs, including face, trim, return, background, etc. Ensure all red colors are not equivalent to Pantone #485C. Please note that color 2793 (Pantone equivalent # of 187C), that is specified in the sign plan for some of the red colors, is an acceptable color for the EC. Free standing sign refacing: 5. Specify the type of illumination for the sign, even if it is existing, and add the appropriate note to the "sign plan". It appears that existing internal lighting will be utilized. However, nothing in the sign plan specifies that. If the sign will not be illuminated then a note should state, "This sign has been approved as a non -illuminated sign (no lighting). 6. Specify on the "sign plan" that the sign has two sides and that those two sides will be identical. 7. The height of the text. Specify and/or dimension the height and length for each line of text on the sign. 8. The background colors must be opaque. Guideline 8.e.iv states, "Cabinet signs shall have a non - illuminated background, or an opaque (zero light transmission) background. It is specified on the sign plan (Sheet 16) that "Face: Opaque White". However, only the top half of the sign has a white background color. The bottom half of the sign has a blue background, which must also be opaque. 9. Provide color and material information on the trim cap and returns of the existing cabinet portion of the monument sign. Ensure that the top, bottom, sides and back are solid and not transparent so that no light will spill out from those directions. 10. Specify the color of the LED lights that will be utilized in the existing cabinet portion of the existing monument sign. 11. Provide a night-time view of the cabinet portion of the existing monument sign so that the portions that will be illuminated are clearly represented. Wall signs: 12. Revise the sign plan so that the "Pharmacy" signs (#2 & 4) are visible in the elevation views on sheets #4 & 5. Once they are visible, they will be evaluated as to whether their placement meets the guidelines. 13. Provide the vertical dimension for the area of the walls on which the two pharmacy signs are proposed. 14. Provide the vertical distance from the ground to the bottom of each wall mounted sign. General sign comments (continued): 15. The date of the first submission and the revision dates. Specify on the sign plan the revision date of the resubmission once these modifications have been made and the sign plan is ready for resubmittal. 16. Please note that signs #5, 6, 7, & 9 (as shown on sheets 9-14 and 17) have not been reviewed by ARB staff because they will not be visible from the Entrance Corridor (EC). 17. Please note that this review is based upon the 9/25/19 (2:15PM) revised sign plan. Please respond by email within 15 days of the date of this letter indicating whether you will or will not proceed with these revisions. Your decision to make the revisions will suspend the 60-day review period associated with your original submittal. If you choose to complete the revisions, please email the revised drawings to me. If you choose not to proceed with these revisions, staff will be unable to approve your application. Failure to respond to this letter shall be presumed to be a request to proceed to action on the application without further revisions. If you have any questions about this action, please contact me as soon as possible.
