Tax Map 56A2, Section 1, Parcel 29
Dear Mr. Atwood,
The Albemarle County Architectural Review Board reviewed the above noted item at its meeting on Monday,
October 6, 2008. The Board, by a vote of 4:0, approved the request, pending staff administrative approval of
the following conditions:
1. Include a materials schedule on the elevations sheet. Clarify in the schedule the material of siding;
vinyl is not appropriate. Provide material /color samples for the stucco. Provide color samples for the
siding. Specify railing and fence colors on the plans. Provide an alternate, less bright, shade of red for
the standing seam metal. Other samples submitted at the meeting are acceptable.
2. Provide the architectural elevations at 1/8" scale. Align the pier of the westernmost unit of the eastern
building group so that it is not offset from the edge of the unit.
3. Regarding the second unit from the east in the eastern building group, lower the louver in the gable
and revise the design so that the point where the gable begins is not directly over the window.
4. Indicate on the site plan that the planters will be constructed of brick to match the building. Indicate if
there is an easement associated with the water line that runs along the east site of the site. If there is
an easement, show it on the plan and ensure that the trees are located in a planting area that is
outside the easement. Replace the White Pines with an alternate appropriately spaced evergreen.
5. Include the fixture cut sheets as part of the site plan set. Ensure that all cut sheets are legible. Ensure
that the manufacturer's information for the Hi -Lite fixture states that it emits less than 3000 lumens.
Coordinate the lighting plan with the elevations. Coordinate the plan and schedule regarding the
number of OA fixtures. Include the height of the King Luminaire fixture in the schedule. Include the
color of the shoebox fixtures in the schedule. Include the following note on the plan: "All site plantings
of trees and shrubs shall be allowed to reach, and be maintained at, mature height; the topping of
trees is prohibited. Shrubs and trees shall be pruned minimally and only to support the overall health
of the plant." Coordinate approval of the street lights with Zoning /Current Development.
6. An application shall be submitted for a comprehensive sign review prior to the installation of the first
wall sign for this development. (The applicant should plan for a minimum 6 -week review period prior
to the approval of the first sign. A separate fee will be required.)
7. Regarding the off -site grading onto the Birchwood Place site, add the following note to the plan:
"Grading is subject to change with development of adjacent parcel ".
8. Remove the misplaced "shop sign" and "open" notes from the "west" and "west gap" elevations.
Revise the drawings to show proposed tree lines at the drainage easements. Add the following note to
the site plan: "All chain link fencing shall be removed and replaced with approved fencing by final
zoning."
9. Increase planter size by 1' in both directions, resulting in interior actual planting box size of 4'9 ".
10. Columns shall be 24" minimum at base with taper /entasis.
11. Add one column to central single story structure to create 4 bays.
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.
