RE: ARB- 2012 -89: Guadalajara Awning
Dear Rene,
As we discussed in our telephone conversation last week, we have received the above - referenced
application, but we cannot proceed with the review of the application because your submittal was
incomplete. The following items were missing from your submittal:
1. Material /color sample for the awning
Further review of your submittal has revealed the following issues:
1. The awning material identified on your elevation sketch is different than the awning
material you indicated in our telephone conversation.
2. The location of the patio on your sketch plan does not match the location of the patio on
the approved site plan.
3. The form and construction of the awning are unclear from the elevation drawing. The
elevation drawing suggests a pitched roof for the awning, but the dimensions do not
appear to allow this.
4. The drawings do not clearly show how and where the awning structure will join with the
existing structure(s).
5. You indicated that 2x4s are proposed to support the awning. It is anticipated that 2x4s
will not have a sufficiently "finished" appearance for the Entrance Corridor.
To proceed with the review of your proposal, within 15 days of the date of this letter, please
resubmit a complete application and submittal materials. It is recommended that you provide the
following:
1. A revised elevation drawing identifying the awning roof and support materials and colors
and accurately showing awning heights and dimensions. An awning material that is
compatible with the material and color of the existing roof is recommended.
2. Identification of awning support materials that will have an appropriate, finished
appearance for the Route 250 Entrance Corridor.
3. An elevation drawing and/or details showing how and where the awning adjoins the
existing structure(s).
4. A revised sketch plan showing accurate patio and awning locations.
5. Material and color samples for the construction materials.
6. Identification of any other proposed changes to the building; for example, removal or
relocation of lighting, signage, etc.
You may also wish to review the Architectural Review Board file that contains drawings for the
restaurant and site. You may contact me or Esther Grace at 434 - 296 -5832 to gain access to this
file. Please reference file #ARB- 2006 -12. Please also note that the date of the next submittal
deadline following the date your revised submittal is received by the County will be considered
the new submittal date for your proposal. If you have any questions about this process, please feel
free to contact me.
Sincerely,
Margaret Maliszewski
Principal Planner
