Bohler Engineering 28 Blackwell Park Lane, Suite 201 Warrenton, VA 20186 RE: ARB-2020-8: Chick-fil-A Woodbrook #1856 Dear Mr. Wright, We have received the above -noted application for a county -wide Certificate of Appropriateness. The following revisions are requested to make the proposal consistent with the design criteria that apply to the County -wide Certificate. 1. Provide material and color samples for the canopies, awnings and as specified elsewhere in these comments. Rev. 1: Comment not yet fully addressed. Address the following: b) The notes for the masonry materials state that the mortar is to match the existing. For both types of brick, a specific manufacture color and style have been specified with the statement "GC to verify `Match Existing" prior to ordering". Address the following: a. The brick colors and manufacturer have changed since the last submission. Provide a picture of a physical sample that includes the manufacturer's name, the color and the style for both specified colors of brick. A physical sample may be required. b. The brick manufacturer has changed to a different company from what was approved on the previous approval. Although the comment in 10. f) i. was addressed since the manufacturer has changed that color may no longer be correct. See i. above about supplying a photo of the material and color sample for both colors of brick. Rev. 2: Comment not yet fully addressed. Comment response letter states "See attached cut sheet for Brick information and images. That exhibit does not anoear to have been submitted. Please submit it so staff can evaluate whether it addressed comments 6.) and (i 2. Show all existing required landscaping, as shown on the approved SDP2006-90 site plan amendment, on the Boundary & Partial Topographic Survey and Demolition Plan sheets. There appears to be a number of plants shown on the approved site plan that are not shown as existing in the proposed minor amendment. If approved plantings are no longer on site, then show them as proposed with this site plan. There are shrubs on east and south side of the building and six street trees, three along Rt. 29 and three along Woodbrook Drive, that are not shown as existing. Also, ensure species of existing plantings are specified. Rev. 1: Comment not yet fully addressed. Address the following: e) There is still one large shade tree along Rt. 29 that is not shown as existing or proposed although it is shown on the approved site plan. Rev. 2: Comment not vet fully addressed. A large shade tree has been added to this area. However_ it annears to be in too close a oroximitv to an existing large shade tree. Revise the location of the oronosed large shade tree to be at least 20' from the existing large shade tree f) Ensure species of existing plantings are specified. This does not appear to be provided on either the existing conditions sheet or the landscape sheet. Rev. 2: Comment not yet addressed. This comment does not appear to have been addressed. The comment response letter states that the species of existing tree are provided in both the plan and in a schedule. However, the information does not appear to have been added. Address this comment. The caliper of the existingtrees ees is shown in a label and should remain. However, the species of tree is not included. g) Rev. 1: [NEW CONMENTI Either revise the landscape schedule to include all existing and proposed plantings for the site or provide a second landscape schedule for the existing landscaping. Ensure this is coordinated to incorporate all trees and shrubs that exist (were previously approved) and are proposed where necessary to bring the site plan back into compliance with the previous approval. Rev. 2: Comment not yet fully addressed. No information on the species of the existing trees has been provide. Address the comment and ensure that the existing trees and shrubs are provided in a landscape schedule including all required information. 6. Provide a photometric plan and manufacturer's cut sheet for the site plan showing all light fixtures (existing and proposed), including fixtures under the canopies. Rev. 1: Comment not yet fully addressed. For the prosed luminaires address the following: a) Incorporate the manufacturer's cut sheet into the site plan. Rev. 2: Comment not yet addressed. Incorporate the manufacturer's cut sheet for each of the proposed light (CRUS) fixtures into the site plan once it is ensured that it can address all of the other comments. Comment Response letter states that the cut sheets have been included in the site plan. However, they do not appear to be on any of the sheets submitted. If the cut sheets cannot fit on the existing sheets, then a sheet should be added to the site plan. b) The Luminaire Schedule specifies a Light Loss Factor (LLF) of 0.95 and 0.72. To meet county requirements, the LLF must be 1.0. Revise the Canopy Photometric Plan using a Light Loss Factor of 1.0 and note this on the plan. Rev. 2: Comment not yet frilly addressed. The Light Loss Factor (LLF) has been revised to 1.0 for most of the fixtures. However, CRUS-1 & CRUS-2 still have LLFs of less than 1.0. Address the following: i. Revise the luminaire schedule to show a LLFs of 1.0 for all fixtures to meet county requirements. ii. The use of dimmers to meet the requirement is not allowed. If the light fixtures cannot meet the requirement without a dimmer than another fixture should be proposed. iii. Ensure once another light fixture has been selected, and the LLF values have been revised to be 1.0, that the Maximum Footcandles (fc) directly below each of the proposed light fixtures does not exceed the maximum of 20 fc. iv. Remove both notes that specify that a dimmer is being utilized to meet the requirements (LLF & Maximum Footcandles). These requirements must be met without the use of a dimmer. V. Please note that if an existing light fixture is not modified in any may, and the maximum footcandles are above 20, those existing fixtures/luminaire do not need to be revised/changed. The comments above apply to the proposed lighting fixtures. Because of this, the maximum footcandles in the statistics chart may still show over 20 fc, as long as those values are not produced by any of the proposed light fixtures/luminaires. f) Ensure that the proposed canopy luminaires specify a warn white light, which would be between 2,700 to 3,000K. Rev. 2: Comment not yet fully addressed. The CRUS fixture is listed at "Cool White" 5,000K light which does not meet the color temperature requirement of 2,700 to 3,000k. Ensure that the proposed canopy luminaires specify a warn white light, which would be between 2,700 to 3,000K. Although not shown in the schedule, the LNC fixture is specified as 3,000K. 10. Revise the building elevations to address the following: f. In the Exterior Finish Scheduled address the following: iii. For "PT-T provide a color sample. Rev. 1: Comment not yet fully addressed. PT-7 is no longer shown on the elevation however the comment response letter states "Color sample provided on Material Board". As specified in comment 1. a) the "Kawneer `Black" color and material sample that is provided on the sample board does not appear to be assigned to any item shown on the elevations. On the previous submission PT-7 was listed as the "Exterior Paint Refuse Enclosure". Please clarify on these two topics and if they are related. Ensure that all exhibits and samples are coordinated and clear. Rev. 2: Comment not yet fully addressed. Comment response letter states that "Kawneer Black" is the color for the storefront ST-1 and that a note had been added to the elevations. However, no note appears to have been added to the elevations. Also, the version of the elevation that was submitted for this review only made three changes to the exhibit: the date of the exhibit was removed (and not update), the manufacturer was removed from BR-2, and both the manufacturer and the color were removed from BR-1. If other revisions had been made the exhibit submitted may have been the wrong version. Ensure an updated versions of the elevations exhibit is submitted. 14. Ensure all exhibits include the date of the exhibit, and any revision dates, in the title block. Rev. 1: Comment not yet fully addressed. On the next submission address this comment again on any revised exhibits and plans. Rev. 2: Comment not vet fullv addressed. Revise the elevations. the site elan_ and all exhibits prior to the next resubmittal to have the date of resubmittal/revision included in the title block.
