RE: ARB2008 -00161 BB &T at Blue Ridge Shopping Center
Tax Map 56, Parcel 11
Dear Ms. Wingate,
I have reviewed your recent submittal for the above - referenced project consisting of:
Architectural Sheet:
• Sheet Al: Building Elevations: North, South, East, and West, latest revision date 12 -12 -08
Site Plan Sheets:
• Sheet CO: Cover Sheet, latest revision date 10 -28 -08
• Sheet C2: Site Layout, latest revision date 11 -21 -08
• Sheet C5: Landscape Plan, latest revision date 11 -21 -08
• Sheet C6: Lighting Plan, latest revision date 11 -21 -08
• Sheet C10: Lighting Details, latest revision date 10 -18 -08
• Sheet 1 /1: Section View, latest revision date 11 -21 -08
Signage Sheets:
• Sign Package Submission, 5 Sheets, latest revision date 11 -20 -08
Materials:
• 3/16" applied window muntin (white)
• BB &T Channel Letter material /color samples
Outstanding issues that will need to be further addressed are shown in italics after the original comment from the Action
Letter of December 5, 2008.
4. Revise the proposal to show the use of a muntin form on the exterior (EC side) of the glass, with a raised 3
dimensional form and a scale and size that is appropriate for the window.
Comments: The 3116 "profile, white, applied window muntin included with this latest submission is approved;
however, Sheet A], building elevations, was not revised to indicate its proposed use.
Recommendations: Revise Sheet Al, building elevations, to include a note indicating the use of the approved
3116" profile, white, applied window muntin; include a product ID number if available.
6. Revise Sheet C 10 Lighting Details to include cutsheets of canopy Fixture K, parking lot Fixture A2, and wall -mount
fixture S. Revise the lighting proposal to include an alternate to Fixture S that is a full cutoff design or revise its light
source to one that emits less than 3, 000 lumens.
Comments: The memo accompanying this latest submission states that the lamp for Fixture S was changed to a
32 watt fluorescent; however, its wattage, in the Luminaire Schedule (Sheet C6), is referenced as a 32w
compact fluorescent (under the Lamp column) and a 35 watt fixture (under the Watts column).
Recommendations: Revise the Luminaire Schedule, as required, to indicate that the lamp wattage for Fixture S
will be a 32 watt fluorescent fixture under both the "Lamp" and "Watts" columns.
Revise the luminaire schedule on Sheet C6 Lighting Plan to indicate the mounting height of all pole and wall -
mounted fixtures. A maximum height of 20' would be appropriate for the pole- mounted fixtures. Revise Sheet C5
Landscape Plan to show the location of all proposed light fixtures. Ensure that there are no conflicts with proposed
plantings.
Comments: Sheet C5 "Landscape Plan" shows an OA pole light fixture in the northeast corner of the parking
lot and another one in the planting island closest to the northeast corner of the proposed building. Both of
these 20' tall pole fixtures are located 5' from proposed London Plane trees. Due to the close proximity and
potential for conflict, the following note needs to be added to the landscape 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. "
I apologize for not thinking to mention the possible need for this note before.
Recommendations: Revise Sheet C5 "Landscape Plan" to include the following note:
"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. "
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 staffs 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
