Importance: High
Anne,
I am the planner handling the review of your sign application for the Albemarle County, Architectural Review Board
(ARB) for its compliance with ARB Sign Design Guidelines. I have completed my review and identified the following
issues needing to be adequately addressed for an administrative approval.
ARB Application Review Fee:
The required $120 ARB application review fee was not included with your submission. This will not hold up the review
of your application; however, we will not be able to release the permit to until it is paid.
Pantone Color Numbers:
The sign drawing did not include the Pantone color numbers for the orange and green colors used in the Hotpots logo.
Revise the sign drawing to include those numbers.
Zoning Ordinance:
Stewart Wright, Zoning Permit Planner, is handling the review of your sign permit for compliance with Section 4.15 of
the Albemarle County Zoning Ordinance. His entry in our project tracking system, regarding your sign permit application,
reads as follows:
"No site plan or recorded plat. Can't determine what is the front property line or edge of vdot right of way"
If he has not already contacted you, he can be reached at 434 - 296 -5832, ext. 3024 or swri.hg_t2kalbemarle.org
Sign Illumination:
It appears that you do not intend to illuminate the sign. Revise the sign drawing to include a note indicating the sign is
non - illuminated. If the sign is to be illuminated, I would suggest that you call me so I can explain just what is needed for
that review.
Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any questions or concerns. Emailing revised sign drawings is
preferred.

Good Afternoon Brent,
Thanks for the heads, but this is actually submitted and being handled by Anne Townsend. We did the layout and helped
fill out the permit, but she wanted to submit, pay fee and handle. Of course, we can help when needed, but she should
be first contact. Her email address is: anne.e.townsend @gmail.com.
I hope you Fall is starting well.

Hi T.J.,
Just wanted to let you know that I am handling the ARB staff review of your sign proposal. I hope to have
comments for you by Tuesday of next week. Sorry for the delay. The workload has been exceptionally high the
past two weeks.
