Verify that the proposed 3M 3635- 8549 Blue perforated vinyl color is the same color as Blue: PMS 294. If it is, note it on the sign drawing. If it is not, revise to a vinyl color that does match Blue: Pantone 294. • • Approved CSC for this location require the use of OK - Done Blue: Pantone 294 for the channel letter text trim caps and returns. Revise the sign drawing to show the use of Blue: Pantone 294 for the channel letter text trim caps and returns. • • Revise the sign drawing to include a note indicating OK — Done the blue channel letter text shall illuminate as white. This can be approved since CSC allow for white channel letters as well. • Channel Letter Graphic Color: OK Done • Revise the sign drawing to include the Pantone number for each of the graphic faces. The trim cap and return colors must match the face color. • Raceway Color: OK — Done • Approved CSC for this location require that the raceway color match Pantone 423. The proposed SW256 paint color does not appear to match. Revise the sign drawing to indicate the use of a paint color to match Pantone 423. • LED Illumination: OK - Done • The ARB requires a limit to the intensity of LED illumination. Revise the sign drawing to include the following note: The level of illumination provided by the LED lights will not exceed the illumination produced by a single stroke of 30 milliamp (ma) neon.

SIGN REVIEW CHECKLIST with REFERENCES — Wall Sign, Single Business ARB201400066, One Main Financial 05/19/2014 REF CHECKLIST ITEM NOTES TYPE X 9.b For internally illuminated signs, channel lettering OK — meets approved CSC (mounted on a raceway or individual letters) is preferred to cabinet signs. X 5.b When channel letters cannot be adequately accommodated, N/A internally illuminated cabinet signs may be considered. X 6 Reader boards are discouraged. None proposed MATERIALS X 4.c Materials used in the sign should complement the building OK being served by the sign. COLOR X 4.e Color for raceway- mounted channel letters, the raceway Issue: shall match the wall color. PMS color not noted on drawing Proposed SW256 does not match approved PMS 423 Sign colors must be harmonious with each other. OK Sign colors must not clash with the site, when viewed in Issues: daylight and at night. Channel letter is blue in daylight & white when illuminated — not noted on drawing. PMS #s for graphic faces not indicated Overly intense color, (such as dayglo or fluorescent None proposed colors), are prohibited. Use of three colors or less (black and white considered as Text: 1 color — OK colors) Graphic: 5 colors — however 4 are shades of blue — sufficiently mitigates impact Additional colors may be approved if they contribute to the sign balance /unity. SIZE, SCALE, PROPORTION, AND LOCATION X 4.b I Signs may not exceed the size, height and setback OK — per S. Wright (05/14/14): 65.4.sq ft proposed - REF CHECKLIST ITEM NOTES requirements as outlined in Section 4.15 of the Albemarle 180 sq ft max allowed County Zoning Ordinance (unless sign has a variance). X Appendix A ratio of 1/3 text to 2/3 wall area or 1/4 text to 3/4 wall OK A.A area is a good working proportioning system for placing a sign. X Appendix Color, form, surface pattern, shape, and disposition of OK A.A.4 elements and openings in an architectural design can affect our perception of scale and can impact the appearance of a sign on a building. X 9.d The wall sign's size must coordinate with the architectural OK — in approved CSC sign band element's size. The sign should not over -crowd the architectural element, OK the wall, or the sign area. Buildings and building elements should not be used as OK billboards. X 9.a Wall signs must integrate with the building's architecture. OK — in approved CSC sign band The sign placement should not obscure architectural OK features or details, (such as cornices, windows, columns, pilasters and paneling). X 9.d An appropriate height for channel letters in a 30" high sign N/A band is 18 ". This allows 6" of unoccupied space above and below the letters. 4" of clear space above, below, and to the sides of a channel letter sign is considered a minimum, with larger clearances required for larger sign bands. REF CHECKLIST ITEM NOTES Degree of visibility, the distance from the Entrance Corridor, and the architectural design of the building /area will determine sign size, placement, and proportions. X 4.d Lettering should be in proportion (font size and typeface style) to the sign and the building. OK Use of three typefaces or less. OK-2 Additional typefaces may be approved if they contribute to a balanced /legible /unified sign design. N/A X 9. e. iv The width of the outline must be in proportion to the width of the letter. None proposed An outline width of 1/8" has been found to be an appropriate sign dimension. TRADEMARKS, CORPORATE LOGOS AND GRAPHICS X 4.f The ARB may require that the color and scale of standard templates for trademarks, service marks, corporate logos and graphics be modified. OK When used, trademarks, service marks, corporate logos and /or graphics should be incorporated as an integral part of the overall sign. OK — integrated appearance with overall sign X 5.a External (or no) illumination is preferred for approved graphics /logos; OK — internal X 5.b internal illumination may be considered for approval on a case -by -case basis. OK LIGHTING X 9.e.i External (or no) illumination is preferred for wall signs. OK — internal X 5f Any internal illumination is considered to contribute to visual clutter and will be limited. OK REF CHECKLIST ITEM NOTES X 5.c Internal illumination design approval will be evaluated on OK size, balance, complexity, and distance from the Entrance Corridor. X 9. e. iv The backgrounds of such cabinet signs must be made None proposed opaque (zero light transmission). X 5.e External illumination should be shielded and not create None proposed glare. All external light sources shall be white. N. /A X 9. ii Sign lighting (external) should be shielded so that it None proposed illuminates only face of the sign and does not shine beyond the edge of the sign. X 9. iii Channel letters with translucent faces must have no light OK spilling outward from the top, bottom, sides or back. Faces and returns of channel letters shall be opaque when N/A back -lit (halo -lit). X 9. iv Cabinet signs shall have a non - illuminated background, or None proposed an opaque (zero light transmission) background. Cabinet signs shall be constructed such that no light spills N/A outward from the top, bottom, sides or back. X 5.g All illumination shall be non - blinking. None proposed X 5.h An exposed light source that forms the body of a sign, None proposed (such as exposed neon signs), shall not be used in the Entrance Corridors. ARB ACTIONS X If LED lighting is proposed the sign drawing must state Issue: note missing The level of illumination provided by the LED lights will not exceed the illumination produced by a single stroke of 30 milliamp (ma) neon. X Red acrylic #2283 has been determined to be an OK — PMS 187 proposed REF CHECKLIST ITEM NOTES inappropriate color for signs. Pantone color match for 2283 is 485C. Red #2793 has been approved as an acceptable substitute. Pantone color match for 2793 is 187C. X ARB Visual clutter resulting from adjacency, for example at the OK Action Hardee's locations, is a reasonable basis for not allowing Memo: illumination of the graphic. 5/7/12 Completeness Check for Signs Project # /Name: _ARB201400066, One Main Financial— Date Received at County: _05 -13 -2014 Date Received in Design Planning: 05 -14 -2014 Date of Checklist Check: _05 -14 -2014 Assigned to /Date: _05 -14 -2014 FEES 3.
