RE: ARB- 2009 -44: Red Lobster Restaurant

• Sheets SP2.2, E1.1, dated 7/20/09.
• Sheets A1.2, A5.3, E1.2, printed on 7/20/09.
I have the following comments:
Comment: Commercial Flag
At the July 6, 2009 meeting, the ARB requested that details concerning the size, design, and color of the
proposed commercial flag be submitted for administrative review. The size and design of the flag has
been included in the sign application; however the colors have not been identified on the drawing.
Revisions Needed: Revise Sheet 7 of the sign application to identify the colors to be used for the flag and
provide color samples.
2. Comment: Size of Lobster Sign on the Entrance Tower
The comment previously provided by the ARB at the July 61h meeting stated that the red lobster sign on
the entrance tower had to be reduced by 25% if it were to remain internally illuminated, or if it were to
remain the same size it would have to be externally illuminated. The size of the sign in the previous
application was 43.89 square feet. The current application states the sign would be 40.69 square feet,
which does not constitute a 25% reduction. If the sign is to remain internally illuminated, it can be no larger
than 33 square feet.
Revisions Needed: Revise the drawing to show that the red lobster sign on the entrance tower will be
externally illuminated, or, that it is no larger than 33 square feet and internally illuminated.
3. Comment: Photometric Plan
A photometric plan was originally submitted showing cumulative light level calculations of proposed and
extant light fixtures on and near the site. Subsequently, a photometric plan showing the light level readings
on the site based only on the light fixtures proposed for the development was requested by the ARB. This
plan was provided; however, the original photometric plan showing the cumulative light levels of all
proposed and extant lighting on and near the site also needs to be included in the site plan. Both plans are
required in order to ensure that the proposed light fixtures do not cause excessive spillover on to the
public road, and to understand the impact of both the proposed and extant lighting on and near the site.
Revisions Needed: Include a photometric plan showing the cumulative light levels of both proposed and
extant light fixtures on and around the site, in addition to the photometric plan showing the light level
readings on the site based only on the light fixtures proposed for the development
Please provide:
1. One full set 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.
