I have reviewed the above -noted plan dated 7/23/2012 and I have the following comments:
1. Additional information on the proposed pole lights is required: legible cut sheet, manufacturer's
information confirming that the fixture is a full cutoff fixture or uses a lamp that emits less than 3000
lumens as defined by the Albemarle County zoning ordinance, photometric information.
2. Some plants on the landscape plan are labeled NJQ, but NJQ does not appear in the plant list. Please
correct.
3. Several groups of 4 plants along the entrance drive are labeled as 9 ICA. Please clarify.
4. Add the following note 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."
5. Increase the minimum height of the ICA and NHD located along the entrance drive to 24" high
minimum at planting and adjust the plan and plant list accordingly.
6. A group of 6 plants (probably ICA) located near the middle of the Dogwood row on the south side of
the entrance drive are not labeled. Please add the plant identification on the plan and update the plant
list.
7. Please submit a revised plan as an ARB application for a Countywide Certificate of Appropriateness
for a minor amendment, and provide the corresponding submittal checklist. Applications and
checklists are available at www.albemarle.org/arb.
