Deputy Architect 134 10th Street N.W. Charlottesville, VA 22903 RE: ARB2007 -00080 Montessori Community School Tax Map 78, Parcel 12A Dear Mr. Deputy: The Albemarle County Architectural Review Board reviewed the above noted item at its meeting on Monday, February 4, 2008. The Board approved the request, by a vote of 4:0, pending staff administrative approval of the following conditions: 1. A 4' x 6' Hardiplank panel sample illustrating the proposed siding colors should be put up for review by the Board to confirm that the red is a good color as viewed from the EC. 2. Provide confirmation on whether the fence is to be white or black. Black would be preferable on the hillside. 3. The windows with the center panels on the second floor facing the EC should be divided into 3 transoms instead of 2 transoms to continue the rhythm of the side transoms. 4. Revise the plan to resolve the following issues: a) The "2 FG" label at south end of Rolkin frontage points to no trees. b) The tree between the LT and the SA in the north end of the planting area is without a label. c) The plant list lists 1 LS but 3 are on plan. d) The plant list lists 5 QC but 7 are on plan. e) The plant list lists 3 OV but 2 are on plan. f) The plant list lists 5 IV but 7 are on plan. g) The locations of several ground/shrub layer plants in the list are not specified on the plan. These were part of bioretention and were not removed from the plan, but should be. h) At the south end of the slope, provide shrubs in the area where trees cannot be planted due to existing utilities. A mix of tall shrubs would be appropriate. i) Provide the White Ash at 3'/2" caliper at planting. j) One of the White Ash is proposed outside the limits of phase 1 construction. It should be within limits of construction. k) It appears that the White Ash will conflict with the overhead line. Relocate the trees so they can grow without conflicts. 1) Regarding the 36" Pecan tree in the parking lot, the tree protection fencing and the demolition aren't coordinated. m) Proposed grading extends into the forsythia shrub mass located south of the existing LE -I structure. n) The demolition plan shows a water line to be demolished. It extends outside the Phase 1 area and under a cherry tree that is not identified for removal. Please provide: 1. Two full sets of revised drawings addressing each of these conditions. Include updated ARB revision dates on each drawing. 2. A memo including detailed responses indicating how each condition has been satisfied. If changes other than those requested have been made, identify those changes in the memo also. Highlighting the changes in the drawing with "clouding" or by other means will facilitate review and approval. 3. The attached "Revised Application Submittal" form.
