Comment Responses
1. Consider lightening the metal tube and metal drive-thru tower colors (possibly with a corresponding
change in material) for greater coordination with the colors of the rest of the building and the overall
shopping center. The brand red for the tubes is acceptable.
Response: There will be no lights along the metal tube wall and metal drive-thru tower. Refer
to A2.2 keynote 3 in the architectural plans.
2. Clarify on the plans that the metal tubes will not be illuminated.
Response: The plans do not call out for a light on the plans. Keynote 3 in the architectural
plans has been added to paint the back wall of the metal tube area only on A2.2.
3. Revise the plans and elevations to show the locations of building- and ground -mounted equipment
and to show how the equipment will be screened. If there will be no equipment, note this on the plan.
Response: Note added to sheet CS-101, indicating that "Visibility of all mechanical equipment
from the entrance corridor shall be eliminated. HVAC units to be -roof mounted and screened
from view, see arch. plans. No equipment will need to be screened."
4. Revise the screen wall elevation to show the existing windows.
Response: The screen wall elevation has been revised to show the existing windows as
requested.
5. Add the standard mechanical equipment note to the architectural drawings: "Visibility of all
mechanical equipment from the Entrance Corridor shall be eliminated."
Response: Note added to sheet CS-101, indicating that "Visibility of all mechanical equipment
from the entrance corridor shall be eliminated. HVAC units to be -roof mounted and screened
from view, see arch. plans. No equipment will need to be screened."
6. Revise the lighting plan to indicate a bronze finish for light fixtures and poles.
Response: A "dark bronze" finish has been identified on sheet CL-501 as requested for both
the light fixtures and poles.
7. Update the lighting plan to include details on the light fixtures proposed above the metal tube wall
feature. If no lighting of this type is proposed, include a note stating this on the plan.
Response: The exterior elevation sheet shows that there is no light fixture within the area
(keynote A2.2) that houses the metal tubes. Note #7 has been added to sheet CL-101
indicating that no light fixtures are proposed above the metal tube wall feature.
8. Revise the landscape plan to specify a more practical planting size for the Mount Vernon English
Laurel.
