RE: ARB2008 -00047 Hunters Way (Recreation Facility)
Tax Map 78, Parcel 49131
Dear Mr. Collins:
The Albemarle County Architectural Review Board reviewed the above noted item at its meeting on Monday,
May 19, 2008. The Board approved the request, by a vote of 5:0, pending staff administrative approval of the
following conditions:
1. Revise Sheet A1.0 Hunters Way so that all sections of each elevation are labeled for the materials and
colors that are proposed.
2. Revise the proposal, and all applicable drawings, to show the use of a darker slate gray color. Provide a
sample of the material /color for review and approval.
3. Revise all applicable drawings to show the use of a darker material for the pediment in the east and west
elevations. Consider, for example, reversing the wall and banding colors or use a darker material.
4. Revise the proposed grading on Sheet 3 Entrance Corridor Site Plan, Sheet 4 Site Plan, and Sheet 5
Landscape Plan to show cut and fill slopes that are rounded (minimum ten foot radius) to meet existing
conditions. Revise the grading plan, as needed, to keep all proposed grading five feet off of the property
line, or provide evidence of a grading easement with the adjoining owner.
5. Revise Sheet 5 Landscape Plan to include the signed Tree Conservation Checklist.
6. Revise Sheet 5 Landscape Plan to include details relating to the appearance of the biofilter and water
quality swale in the southwest corner of the site. This facility is to be designed to provide a landscaped
(not engineered) appearance, integrated with the site, eliminating the need for screening.
7. Signage that is visible from the EC will require ARB approval. Freestanding signage proposals can be
submitted separately from the site plan application and should demonstrate that they meet all ARB sign
guidelines, with locations free of utility conflicts. Building signage that is visible from the EC should be
included in this application and demonstrate that it meets all ARB sign guidelines.
8. Add to the drawings a note that the glass shall be clear.
9. Relieve the blankness of the pediment with articulation, block color, the addition of a louver addition, etc.
Please provide:
1. Two full sets of revised drawings addressing each of these conditions. Include updated ARB revision
dates on each drawing and an ARB approval signature panel.
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. This form must be returned with your revisions to
ensure proper tracking and distribution.
When staff's review of this information indicates that all conditions of approval have been met, a Certificate of
Appropriateness may be issued.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
Brent Nelson
