OK Locations • See accompanying building elevations for the location of sign bands and placements. • Signs shall be centered vertically in the designated sign band and centered horizontally with a single, pair, or group of first story windows or doors in the designated sign band. 0 Graphics may be used independent of channel letters within the sign band on the tower. Size Letters • Standard guidelines regarding size and proportion apply. OK Graphics Maximum height not to exceed the tallest letter in the sign. When used, graphics shall be sized and located to appear as an integral part of the overall sign. Issue: Graphic exceeds height of tallest letter Illumination Letters • Signs may be internally illuminated. • If LED: The level of illumination provided will not exceed the illumination produced by a single stroke of 30 milliamp (ma) neon. (Note on every application.) Issue: note missing Graphics Opaque background required. (Note on every application.) Issue: not addressed Letter type /font Unlimited This form outlines the specific design criteria established for signs at this location. All standard ARB Sign Guidelines also apply. RESUBMITTAL REVIEW CHECKLIST PROJECT #/NAME: ARB 2015 -01, Chipotle Sign 04 -08 -15 ARB COMMENT NOTES X Approved Comprehensive Sign Criteria for the shopping Issue: center do not allow a backer panel behind the channel Sheet 3, Illumination rendering shows a backer panel letters. Revise the sign drawings by removing all references to a backer panel behind the text (CHIPOTLE) channel letters. X Approved Comprehensive Sign Criteria require Matthews OK 313 Dark Bronze color for the trim caps and returns. Revise the sign drawing accordingly. X Approved Comprehensive Sign Criteria require that the sign Pepper removed from sign graphic (the pepper and backer panel) height not exceed Issue: Alan Taylor's email to MM says they want the pepper the height of the tallest channel letter. Revise the sign drawings by reducing the height of the pepper graphic and backer panel to not exceed the height of the tallest channel letter. X Revise the sign drawing to include the following required note regarding LED intensity: OK — note on drawing "The level of illumination provided will not exceed the illumination produced by a single stroke of 30 milliamp (ma) neon." X Approved Comprehensive Sign Criteria require an opaque Comment irrelevant — backer panel not permitted background for graphics. Revise the sign drawing to clearly indicate the graphic backer panel shall not illuminate, only the pepper graphic shall illuminate. X A sign permit has not been received and approved for the Issue: No application received for the freestanding sign freestanding, multi- tenant sign structure; therefore, the proposed tenant panel cannot be approved at this time. Revise the sign drawings by removing the freestanding, multi- tenant sign panel. SIGN REVIEW CHECKLIST with REFERENCES — Wall Sign, Single Business ARB 201500001, Chipotle 01 -15 -15 REF CHECKLIST ITEM NOTES TYPE • 9.b For internally illuminated signs, channel lettering Issue: See SCS (mounted on a raceway or individual letters) is preferred to cabinet signs. • 5.b When channel letters cannot be adequately accommodated, N/A internally illuminated cabinet signs may be considered. • 6 Reader boards are discouraged. None proposed MATERIALS • 4.c Materials used in the sign should complement the building OK being served by the sign. COLOR • 4.e Color for raceway- mounted channel letters, the raceway OK — direct -mount shall match the wall color. Sign colors must be harmonious with each other. Issue: See SCS Sign colors must not clash with the site, when viewed in OK daylight and at night. Overly intense color, (such as dayglo or fluorescent OK — none proposed colors), are prohibited. Use of three colors or less (black and white considered as OK colors) Additional colors may be approved if they contribute to the sign balance /unity. SIZE, SCALE, PROPORTION, AND LOCATION • 4.b Signs may not exceed the size, height and setback OK — per S. Wright requirements as outlined in Section 4.15 of the Albemarle 2 signs at 35.8 sq ft each = 71.6 sq ft proposed County Zoning Ordinance (unless sign has a variance). End unit - has 2 road frontages - 73 feet and 32 feet = 125.5 max square footage for signs REF CHECKLIST ITEM NOTES CLE requirement tied to AC permit - not sign permit. X Appendix A ratio of 1/3 text to 2/3 wall area or 1/4 text to 3/4 wall OK A.A area is a good working proportioning system for placing a sign. X Appendix Color, form, surface pattern, shape, and disposition of OK A.A.4 elements and openings in an architectural design can affect our perception of scale and can impact the appearance of a sign on a building. X 9.d The wall sign's size must coordinate with the architectural Issue: See SCS element's size. The sign should not over -crowd the architectural element, Issue: See SCS the wall, or the sign area. Buildings and building elements should not be used as OK billboards. X 9.a Wall signs must integrate with the building's architecture. Issue: See SCS The sign placement should not obscure architectural OK features or details, (such as cornices, windows, columns, pilasters and paneling). X 9.d An appropriate height for channel letters in a 30" high sign N/A band is 18 ". This allows 6" of unoccupied space above and below the letters. 4" of clear space above, below, and to the sides of a channel letter sign is considered a minimum, with larger clearances required for larger sign bands. Degree of visibility, the distance from the Entrance Corridor, and the architectural design of the building /area REF CHECKLIST ITEM NOTES will determine sign size, placement, and proportions. X 4.d Lettering should be in proportion (font size and typeface style) to the sign and the building. Issue: See SCS Use of three typefaces or less. OK Additional typefaces may be approved if they contribute to a balanced /legible /unified sign design. OK X 9. e. iv The width of the outline must be in proportion to the width of the letter. None proposed An outline width of 1/8" has been found to be an appropriate sign dimension. TRADEMARKS, CORPORATE LOGOS AND GRAPHICS X 4.f The ARB may require that the color and scale of standard templates for trademarks, service marks, corporate logos and graphics be modified.

Issue: See SCS X 5.a External (or no) illumination is preferred for approved graphics /logos; OK X 5.b internal illumination may be considered for approval on a case -by -case basis. OK LIGHTING X 9.e.i External (or no) illumination is preferred for wall signs. OK — internal X 5.f Any internal illumination is considered to contribute to visual clutter and will be limited. OK REF CHECKLIST ITEM NOTES X 5.c Internal illumination design approval will be evaluated on OK size, balance, complexity, and distance from the Entrance Corridor. X 9. e. iv The backgrounds of such cabinet signs must be made Issue: See SCS opaque (zero light transmission). X 5.e External illumination should be shielded and not create None proposed glare. All external light sources shall be white. X 9. ii Sign lighting (external) should be shielded so that it N/A illuminates only face of the sign and does not shine beyond the edge of the sign. X 9. iii Channel letters with translucent faces must have no light OK spilling outward from the top, bottom, sides or back. Faces and returns of channel letters shall be opaque when N/A back -lit (halo -lit).
