The following revisions are requested to make the proposal consistent with those conditions as well as the Entrance Corridor design criteria. 1. Provide a perspective view showing the northeast corner of the building and the entrance to the underground parking as viewed from the EC. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 2. Provide information on the VLT and VLR ratings for the window glass. Ensure that the glass meets the required limits. Rev. '1: Comment addressed. 3. Add the standard window glass note to the drawings with the next submission: Visible light transmittance (VLT) shall not drop below 40%. Visible light reflectance (VLR) shall not exceed 30%. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 4. Provide a material sample for the aluminum panel mechanical roof screen. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 5. Revise the east building elevation labels to clearly state the materials and colors of all components of the building, including spandrel glass, if proposed. Rev. 1: Comment not yet fully addressed. Address the following: a) Ensure that the color is provided for each of the components in the elevation. The following do not have their colors listed on the elevation: i. The stone veneer ii. The Wood -Look Panel iii. The Aluminum Storefront System iv. The Precast Concrete Panels v. The Aluminum Sunshade System vi. The Aluminum Panel Mechanical Roof Screen vii. The Aluminum Glazing Infill Panels viii. The Aluminum Curtain Wall System b) Ensure that "Light Beige" and "Dark Beige" colors are the actual manufacture's color names and not a general description of the color. 6. Revise the materials information on the east building elevation to specify that all window glass is not tinted or provide window glass samples for review. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 7. Include the type, manufacturer and color of the material utilized in the dumpster enclosure in the dumpster detail. Rev. 1: Comment not vet fully addressed. Address the following: a) Revise the "Detail — Concrete Dumpster Pad" to no longer state in a label "Refer to architectural plans for enclosure details" or clarify where on the architectural plans the additional details are provided. b) Add a note or label that specified that the screening fence is opaque. 8. Provide a roof plan showing the location and height of the rooftop mechanical equipment. Revise the elevation views to include dashed lines for the rooftop mechanical equipment. Confirm the reason for not showing the roof screen in the perspective views. Rev. 1: Comment not yet fully addressed. Address the following: a) Revise the roof plan to include the maximum height of the roof top equipment. b) Revise the roof plan to specify the height of the Aluminum Mechanical Screen Wall. c) If this information has been provided on a different sheet, as appears to be the case from Roof Plan note #2, those sheets could be provided. 9. Revise the plan to include all building mounted lighting and extend the lighting calculation grid to the EC. Rev. 1: Comment not vet fully addressed. Address the following: a) Ensure that all lighting meets the requirement of "The spillover of lighting from luminaires onto public roads and property in residential or rural areas zoning districts shall not exceed one half footcandle." This requirement is not being met in the following places: i. Along the right of way of Ivy Road. ii. Along the southern property boundary, where it is adjacent to TMP 60-4005. b) The S3 (WPLED26N) light fixture is above 3,000 lumens. Because of its curved bottom it does not appear to be full cutoff. All light fixtures above 3,000 lumens must be full cut off in design. Revise the site plan to meet this requirement. 10. Ensure that the photometric plan was calculated using a Light Loss Factor (LLF) of 1.0 and note this on the plan. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 11. Revise the lighting plan to include the color of the light poles. Rev. 1: Comment initially specified was addressed. However, the height of the poles has been revised since the last submission. Revise the pole mounted fixture heights, listed on sheet SE1.0 to specify that the freestanding pole mounted fixtures do not exceed a height of 20'. 12. Revise the lighting plan to include the standard lighting note. "Each outdoor luminaire equipped with a lamp that emits 3,000 or more initial lumens shall be a full cutoff luminaire and shall be arranged or shielded to reflect light away from adjoining residential districts and away from adjacent roads. The spillover of lighting from luminaires onto public roads and property in residential or rural areas zoning districts shall not exceed one half footcandle." Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 13. Revise the plan to provide 3%2 inch caliper large shade trees along the EC. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 14. Revise the label for the "temporary easement for entrance" in the site plan to indicate when the easement is to be vacated. Show how the easement will not conflict with the proposed building or landscaping. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. Applicant has stated that "... this easement will expire upon completion of the Ivy Road sidewalk protect construction.... Beaver Creek MOB construction will be coordinated with the County to ensure that it doesn't interfere with the Ivy Road sidewalk proiect." 15. Revise the plan to provide a minimum of 5' between proposed trees and the gas line. Shifting the sidewalk closer to the building and locating the trees closer to the curb may be an option. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 16. Revise the site plan to increase the clearance between the large shade tree that is adjacent to the parking lot, and within 2' of the gas line, and the gas line. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 17. Revise the site plan to add one small tree along the east perimeter of the parking area. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. 18. Move the two large trees away from the dumpster to other interior islands within the southern parking row to avoid damage. Rev. 1: Comment not yet fully addressed. Although the dumpster has been relocated to avoid conflict with the required landscaping, the modifications made require that the following to be addressed: a) The sugar maple iust to the south of the dumpster area is still to close and would be damaged by the trash truck. Move the tree at least 5' further south. b) Revise the site plan to include a total of eight interior parking lot trees. Parking lot islands have been removed from the southern most row of parking spaces. Although there are now trees along the perimeter of the parking lot they meet the "perimeter' parking lot tree requirements and do not meet the "interior' parking lot tree requirement. There should be one large shade tree in the interior of the parking lot for every ten parking spaces. Therefore eight interior trees should be provided and only six interior parking lot trees are currently shown within the parking lot. Two more trees could be included by adding two landscaping islands within the southern most row of parking. 19. Sign applications are required for all proposed signs. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. Applicant has stated that an application for any signage will be submitted. 20. If this will be a multi -tenant building, submit a comprehensive sign plan for review. Rote that ARB approval of a comprehensive sign plan is required for multi -tenant buildings prior to ARB approval of the final site plan. Rev. 1: Comment addressed. Applicant has stated that the building is intended to be a single tenant building. 21. Incorporate relief in the fiber cement facade, possibly through change in plane between the wood fiber cement and the other cladding. Rev. 1: Comment not yet fully addressed. Although a description of what is intended to meet this condition of approval was included in the comment response letter it does not appear that any details have been provided in the architectural drawings that show this information. Also the 3" relief specified may not be sufficient. Revise the architectural plans to include a detail showing what is proposed to accomplish the relief in the fiber cement facade and then those details will be forwarded to the ARB for their review and comments. Within 15 days of the date of this letter, please send me a letter (by email is acceptable) indicating whether you will or will not proceed with these revisions. If you choose not to proceed with these revisions, staff will be unable to approve your application.
