RE: ARB200900052 South Plains Presbyterian Church
Dear Ms. Cooper;
The Albemarle County Architectural Review Board reviewed the above noted item at its meeting on Monday,
October 19, 2009. The Board voted to grant approval of the Certificate of Appropriateness, subject to the
following conditions:
1. Revise the location of the 1/1 windows within the arched recessed areas along the elevation so that
they are centered, and therefore, more coordinated with the architectural elements in which they are
placed.
2. Revise the 2/1 windows on the north elevation to 1/1.
3. Revise the elevations to show the proportion of the Gothic window in the north elevation that matches
the rendering dated 9/8/09. Brick veneer should occur on the side of that gable as shown in the
drawing Al submitted on the same date.
4. Revise the landscape plan as follows:
• Add 2 -3 additional crape myrtles along the northwestern edge of the parking area
• Change the proposed Foster's holly to American holly
• Add 2 -3 more small clusters of ornamental deciduous trees along the EC
• Change the five dogwoods to little gem magnolias at 2" caliper.
You may consider this letter your Certificate of Appropriateness.
This approval is predicated on the fact that the design and materials, as proposed and exhibited for review, will
be used. The acceptance of approval implies that the applicant has agreed to execute the design as indicated
on the site plan, attachments, materials, samples, and other submittal items presented. Any change in the
approved design or materials will require an amendment to the plan and must be reviewed and approved by
the Architectural Review Board. Please note that this application is approved with the condition that mechanical
equipment shall not be visible from the Entrance Corridor.
Please note the following:
1. This application is approved with the condition that mechanical equipment shall not be visible from the
Entrance Corridor.
2. Changes made to the site or architectural plans after issuance of a Certificate of Appropriateness can
delay the signing of mylars and the approval of building permits. It is in the applicant's best interest to notify
ARB staff of such changes and to initiate the review of amendments to ARB- approved plans to avoid future
delays.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
Eryn Brennan
Senior Planner
