Reviews Comments:At its March 16, 2015 meeting, the ARB voted unanimously to forward the following
recommendations to the Agent for the Site Review Committee:
• Regarding requirements to satisfy the design guidelines as per § 18-30.6.4(2), (3) and (5):
1. In areas where wooded area to remain is used to meet tree requirements along 5th Street
Extended, identify existing individual large shade and ornamental trees on the plan by size and
species to show that the minimum requirement can be met. If the requirement can’t be met, show
additional new trees to be planted to meet the requirement.
2. Shift utilities to eliminate conflicts between landscaping and utilities/easements without reducing
the quantity of proposed plants.
3. Ensure that pipes are located to eliminate conflicts with trees along the entrance drive, while
meeting the 40’ on center tree requirement.
4. Add plants along the retaining wall located west of the clubhouse to soften the appearance of the
wall as viewed from the 5th Street Extended corridor.
5. Indicate on the plans the manufacturer, size and color of the block proposed for the retaining walls.
Provide details on the plan showing that wall construction will allow for the planting between the
terraced walls illustrated north of Buildings 1 and 2.
• Regarding recommendations on the plan as it relates to the guidelines:
None.
• Regarding recommended conditions of initial plan approval: A Certificate of Appropriateness is
required prior to final site plan approval.

characteristic of the design.
2. Add the standard window glass note to the architectural drawings: “Visible light transmittance
(VLT) shall not drop below 40%. Visible light reflectance (VLR) shall not exceed 30%.”
3. Add the standard mechanical equipment note to both the architectural and site plans: “Visibility of
all mechanical equipment from the Entrance Corridor shall be eliminated.”
4. Provide the photometric plan at a larger size to increase legibility.

lighting from luminaires onto public roads and property in residential or rural areas zoning districts
shall not exceed one half footcandle.”
9. In areas where wooded area to remain is used to meet tree requirements along 5th Street
Extended, identify existing individual large shade and ornamental trees on the plan by size and
species to show that the minimum requirement can be met. If the requirement can’t be met, show
additional new trees to be planted to meet the requirement.
