RE: ARB2008 -00167 Tip Top Pergola
Dear Mr. Shimp:
The Albemarle County Architectural Review Board, at its meeting on Monday, December 1, 2008, reviewed the
above -noted proposal in order to provide staff with guidance concerning whether or not the review of this proposal
could be handled administratively by staff. The ARB took the following action:
Regarding the ARB- 2008 -167: Tip Top Pergola addition, the Board by a vote of 3:0, moved that the applicant can
have the current submittal reviewed by the ARB on its current schedule, or can make a resubmittal to staff that
addresses the following comments, and staff can administratively review and approve it.
1. Reconsider the proportions of the beam; the main beam should be larger in size than the joists, proportionally.
2. The main support beam should extend beyond the joists and the ends should be detailed to match the joist
elements.
3. Resolve the fact that the joists are drawn as 2" material but are labeled as 3" or 4" material.
4. The posts should be proportional to the dimension of the beam and joist material. For example, 8 x 8 or 12 x 12
may be more appropriate than the metal pipe.
5. Exposed metal pipe is not acceptable.
6. The span of the beam extending between the building fagade and the southwest building corner is out of
proportion and should be broken up with a third column.
Should you decide to revise the application according to the comments listed above, please provide:
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.
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.
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
