FREESTANDING SIGNS
A. Submittal Requirements
❑ Site plan or latest approved plat showing, to scale, the proposed location of the sign(s) with dimensions. N/A - reface
❑ Distance from the sign to the property lines and/or edge of the VDOT right -of -way. N/A - reface
❑ If the sign will be located in an easement, a letter of approval from the easement holder will be required. N/A - reface
❑ A to -scale color illustration of the proposed sign showing
❑ Dimensions of the sign, including overall height from the ground; cabinet size, length, width and depth; base
size, etc. (Be sure to also include these dimensions on the diagrams provided in the Sign Permit Application packet.)
❑ Proposed lettering and/or graphics in their proposed location. Missing
❑ Entrance Corridor Requirements: If the sign is to be constructed in an Entrance Corridor, also provide a color
illustration of the front and side elevations of the sign showing:
• If internally illuminated, indicate which areas of the sign are opaque and which are illuminated. Internally
illuminated cabinet signs must have opaque backgrounds. (Opaque materials don't allow light to pass through.
When lit only from behind, the color of an opaque material cannot be detected nor can objects be seen through it.)
OK
• Identification of proposed materials and colors. Include standard color id numbers (Pantone, Benjamin Moore,
Acrylic, etc.) for all materials, text, graphics, base, faces, trim caps, returns, etc. Missing
• Provide accurate physical samples of all colors proposed, preferably in the material proposed. (Paint chips that
accurately reflect the proposed colors are acceptable.) Missing
• Provide a site plan showing proposed landscaping around the sign, including botanical names and planting sizes.
N/A - reface
• Additional submittal materials may be required if review by the Architectural Review Board is necessary. (The
applicant will be notified if this requirement applies.)
WALL SIGNS None proposed
❑ A drawing, to scale, showing dimensions of the sign (length, height, depth).

• Provide accurate physical samples of all colors proposed in the sign, preferably in the material proposed. (Paint
chips that accurately reflect the proposed colors are acceptable.)
• Location of proposed light fixtures and manufacturer cut sheets describing illumination type, intensity, style,
shielding, color, and height. All lighting must meet ordinance requirements as outlined in Section 4.17.
o For internally illuminated signs, indicate which areas of the sign are opaque and which are illuminated. (Opaque
materials don't allow light to pass through. When lit only from behind, the color of an opaque material cannot be
detected nor can objects be seen through it.)
ILLUMINATION REQUIREMENTS
