RE: ARB201300113 Town and Country Shopping Center Amendment
Dear Mr. Pingry:
The Albemarle County Architectural Review Board, at its meeting on October 7, 2013, completed a preliminary
review of the above -noted request to revise the architectural design by: reducing the amount of storefront
glass, increasing the height of the parapet, equalizing the height of the towers. The Board offered the following
comments for the benefit of the applicant's next submittal. Please note that the following comments are those
that have been identified at this time. Additional comments may be added or eliminated based on further
review and changes to the plan.
1. Revise the southeast and southwest towers to reinforce the scale of the overall building.
2. The brick detailing of the infill in the two bays of the side elevations shall reflect the texture and
detailing of the design of the approved wall.
3. Revise the elevation drawings to show the pilasters at the original approved height.
You may submit your application for continued ARB review at your earliest convenience. Application forms,
checklists and schedules are available on -line at www.albemarle.org /ARB.
Revised drawings addressing the comments listed above are required. Include updated ARB revision dates on
each drawing. Please provide a memo including detailed responses indicating how each comment has been
addressed. 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.
If you have any questions concerning any of the above, please feel free to call me.
Sincerely,
Margaret Maliszewski
Principal Planner
