RE: ARB -2016-02: The Shops at Stonefield Building G1 - Jared
Dear Mr. Lorey,
The Albemarle County Architectural Review board, at its meeting on March 7, 2016, held a work session on
the above -noted item. The ARB had the following comments:
1. Lighten the color palette of the proposed building to increase compatibility with the existing buildings
of the shopping center.
2. Coordinate the materials shown in the sample board and the finish schedule.
3. Clarify on the drawings the appearance of the back of the raised bays. Provide an appropriate
appearance for the Entrance Corridor.
4. Revise the design of the top part of the raised bays to scale down the wall area between the top
cornice and the secondary cornice.
5. Provide a detail of the cornice located between the brick and the EIFS to clarify its appearance.
6. Identify on the drawings the paint color for the service door.
7. Call out more completely on the drawings the locations proposed for all window films. Provide for
review additional information to clarify the appearance of the windows and window films. Show how
the windows will have an appropriate appearance for the ECs. Provide mock-ups for review.
8. Revise the architectural elevations to include the service yard wall that extends from the north
elevation and indicate materials/colors on the drawings. Consider moving the north service door and
related items to the west elevation.
9. Provide for review a photometric diagram showing the footcandles at ground level produced by the
proposed wall fixtures.
10. Coordinate all site, grading, utility, landscape and lighting drawings with the new building footprint.
11. Note that separate sign applications will be required for the wall signs. The sign submittal should show
sign type, color, illumination, etc. as outlined in the approved comprehensive sign plan.
12. Revise the location of the diamond light to fit within the architectural configuration of the fagade.
13. Reduce the scale of the sign letters.
14. Reconsider the level of detail on the north elevation to be more consistent with the entrance elevation.
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.or,/BARB.
Revised drawings addressing the comments listed above, and those from previous reviews, 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, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
Margaret
