To whom it may concern:
Please consider this our proposal for the placement of a business sign to be
located at 2238 Richmond Road, Charlottesville, VA.
Our business is located along Richmond Road entrance corridor on the east
side of Charlottesville. It is located on the westbound side of the road. The
proposed sign will be located between the building and the roadway and will be
positioned perpendicularly to the road in order to maximize visibility for
customers. The sign will be a "dual post" freestanding style, whereas a flat
wooden sign will be held up by two "legs" on either side. This style has been
used on neighboring properties, for example the Faith Christian Center located
at 2186 Richmond road:
Our sign will feature the Euromotive logo with a brief description of the
business ("European automobile service and repair"). The colors of the logo
(which itself will only contain two (2) typefaces), will include black, blue, red,
and gold (yellow) set against a white background. These colors, which include a
triadic color scheme of the primary colors, will compliment the surrounding
aesthetic of the corridor and compliment neighboring signs with similar color
schemes. These include the "Kohr Bros" sign located at 2151 Richmond road,
which contains blue, white, orange, and yellow, as well as the "Comfort Inn"
sign located at 2097 Inn Drive (with the sign near 8s visible from Richmond
Road and highway 64), which contains the colors blue, yellow, orange, red, and
white:
The bottom of our sign, where the posts meet the ground, will be softened with
boxwood evergreen plants. These plants were chosen due to their ability to be
trimmed to a low height, their "full" look, and staying green year-round.
Please see the below image of the proposed sign design, as well as an image
showing approximate location in front of the business (please note the phone
number will be replaced by the business number once established; the design
and typeface will remain unchanged).

The sign will be 8 feet wide and 4 feet tall and constructed from pressure
treated wood. The sign frame will be approximately 3' from the ground level and
have an overall height of approximately 7 feet from the ground level.
The colors for the sign are as follows (all swatches are Valspar brand paint,
found at Lowe's Home Improvement Store):
White background: "Polar White" #7003-16
Graduated blue stripes, lightest to darkest: "Ocean Sigh" #5002-1 OA
"Wishing Well" #5002- IOC
"Pacific Pleasure" #5009-10
"Boisterous Blue" #4009-6
Black font/block: "Dark Kettle Black" #4011-2
Red block: "Classic Red" # 1009-2
Yellow -gold block: "Morning Sunrise" #3011-2
All design elements of the sign (including the logo and text) will be a vinyl
application created by a local Charlottesville business, Frontrunner Signs. The
colors used will be color -matched to the paint swatches listed above.
The approximate location of the sign will be as follows:
105" from front of building to edge of sign
57" from sidewalk to same edge of sign
128" from corner of building, in line with edge of first window on front
215" from outer edge of white line (edge) of Route 250
Thank you for your consideration of our sign design! We hope this satisfies all
county requirements. Please let us know if you have any further questions.
Best regards,
