Subject: Glenwood Station Median Sign
Mr. Birckhead,
Having reviewed your application (ARB 2008 -97, Glenwood Station Median Sign) there are a few issues that
need to be addressed before the sign can receive ARB approval. They are outlined below:
1. Because trees are being removed for the installation of this sign, the approved Glenwood Station site plan
will have to be amended and approved to reflect this. Bill Fritz, Albemarle County Chief of Current Development at
296 -5832, extension 3242 or bfritz(@albemarle.org can help you get started with this. His division (Current
Development) will handle the review of this amendment. The ARB cannot issue a Certificate of Appropriateness
for the sign until that amendment has been approved by Current Development.
2. Please submit a landscape plan to the ARB showing the existing and proposed landscape condition.
3. Please revise your sign drawings to state the proposed brick will match the buildings.
4. Please revise your sign drawings to show illumination details, including the type of illumination that is being
proposed. Please also add the following notes to the drawing:
• Cabinet signs shall be constructed such that no light spills outward from the top, bottom, sides or back.
• Internally illuminated cabinet with opaque background, only letters are illuminated.
5. Revisedthe drawing if possible to show the proposed Stowe White cabinet as off -white (instead of grey) on
the drawing.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
