RE: ARB201400005 Rolkin Road Retail Shops — Comprehensive Sign Plan
Dear Ms. Cooper,
The Albemarle County Architectural Review Board reviewed the above noted item at its meeting on Monday,
March 17, 2014. The Board, by a vote of 4:0, approved the sign criteria as outlined in the table below, pending
staff administrative approval of the following conditions:
1. Revise the drawings to reflect the general guideline that the sign area shall allow for sufficient
unoccupied space around the sign letters.
2. Revise the drawings to show sign bands on the brick side walls.
3. Eliminate the sign band "above grade" dimensions from the sign criteria.
4. Revise the drawings to consistently indicate that if a raceway is used, its color will match the color
of the surface to which it is attached.
5. Correct the details numbers and names on Sheet 2 of 3.
