Memorandum
To:David Jensen
From: Francis H. MacCall, Senior Planner
Division: Zoning & Current Development
Date:3/8/05
Subject: SDP -2005 -001 1 Hollyrnead Town Center Area C Block 9 Preliminary Site
Plan
The Planner for the Zoning & Current Development Division of the Albemarle County
Department Community Development will approve the preliminary site plan when the
following items have been satisfactorily addressed: [Each comment is preceded by the
applicable reference to the Code of Albemarle.]
1. The proffers for ZMA 2001 -020 state that the site must be developed in general
accord with the approved application plan. There appears to be a change in the
travel ways that come off of the traffic circle into this site. There is now a row of
parking where the travel way was intended on the application plan. This layout is
not consistent with the application plan and cause some conflicts with the travel
way and parking that are unacceptable.
2. 32.5.6 a] The Magisterial District is Rio not Rivanna.
3. 32.5.6 a] Provide 1 datum reference.
4. 32.5.6 a] State where the source of survey and topography came from. Stating
that it is from other is not sufficient.
5. The parking schedule should include a column for loading spaces. The provided
number of parking spaces should be 270 with 3 loading spaces.
6. 32.5.6 n] Dimension the buildings.
7. The preliminary landscape plan appears to be OK. Remember to provide a
schedule of plant types and number along with the canopy calculations.
8. 4.12.13 e] Provide a dumpster that meets the design requirements of section
4.12.19.
Final tentative approval from this department will be subject to the following conditions:
These conditions are those which have been identified at this time. Conditions may be
added or eliminated based on additional review.]
1. 32.6.3] Two (2) copies of a landscape plan shall be submitted for approval. The plan
should be overlaid with the utilities plan to show all landscaping to be located out of
any utility easement.
2. 32.6.4.1] The final plan approval is subject to the issuance of a Certificate of
Appropriateness from the Architectural Review Board. The retaining wall at the
north side of the parking lot may be an issue since it was not part of the application
plan and would be visible from the Entrance Corridor.
3. The appropriate access easements will need to be in place for the eventual inter parcel
access between the blocks.

DATE:7 March 2005
RE:Hollymead Town Center — Area C, Block 9, Preliminary Site Plan,
SDP 2005 -00011
The Preliminary Site Plan for Hollymead Town Center — Area C, Block 9 has been reviewed. Engineering
has the following comments:
1. The entrance road "B" from the roundabout to the adjacent block 7 does not appear to be in
general accord to the approved application plan. The road has several parking spaces on it not
shown on the approved application plan. Parking should he on travelways off of road "B" as
shown on the application plan. Also the egress is askew to the roundabout. The roadway should
be shifted to the northwest to align with the roundabout. Please remove the parking from road "B"
and realign the roadway more in accordance to the application plan. [proffer, 18- 32.5.6i]
2. Please list the source of topography and survey. [ 18- 32.5.6a]
3. Please supply written grading easements or letter of intent for grading on all adjacent parcels that
have off -site grading. [DM1102]
4. Please show access easements along travelways to Area X, and Block 7 and 8. 18- 32.5.6i, k, m]
5. The 17 foot retaining wall is located over a sewerline easement. Written approval is required if the
easement is publicly owned. Please label the easement as public (list Authority) or private on the
plan. Also the retaining wall will need a building pennit and may need ARB approval.
6. Please address VDOT comments.
The following items must be reviewed and approved by the Engineering Department before tentative
approval of the final site plan can be granted.
1. A completed application and fee for erosion control and stormwater management. [17- 203, 17-
303]
2. An erosion control plan, narrative and computations.[14 -311, 17 -203]
3. A stormwater management/BMP plan and computations. Computations must include water
quality, and detention routings for the 2yr and l0yr stouiis. [17 -304]
4. A completed stormwater management facilities maintenance agreement and fee. [17 -304]

RE: ARB2004 - 124: Hollymeade Town Center; Area C, Block #9 — Conceptual Review —
Tax Map 032, Parcels 41 D)
Dear Mr. RoeII:
The Albemarle County Architectural Review Board, at its meeting on November 15, 2004, completed a
preliminary review of the above -noted request to construct eight commercial spaces, within two
buildings. 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.
Regarding the Conceptual Plan:
1. Use materials and colors on all of the roof forms that refer to the immediate context of
historic and vernacular buildings. Apply patterns of window types consistently and relate
their placement on the buildings to one another.
2. Provide complete material samples for review.
3. Revise the articulation of the corner on the farthest east end of the buildings,
acknowledging both the south and east elevations; re- assess the use of a bay window in
this location.
4. Provide information describing the materials of the clock tower including any associated
external or internal lighting.
5. Provide an updated Area C plan for review.
6. Clarify the intended use and character of the area between Block 9 and the CVS site.
7. Indicate in writing that there are no accessory structures or equipment to be located on
site or on the buildings, or show the location of all such features on the site and
architectural drawings. Show how visibility of the features will be eliminated from the
Entrance Corridor, referencing equipment size and location. Use the buildings and site
configuration for screening.
8. Provide for review detailed information describing the walls intended for the pond and
how they relate to the overall proposed configuration and planting of the pond.
9. Provide shade trees for interior roads and pedestrian walkways Trom the County
Recommended Species list, planted at 2 1 /2" caliper and include them in a completed
plant schedule on the drawings.
10. Articulate the large parking lot adjacent to the building to include the required numbers
and species of trees and shrubs. Provide planting areas large enough to support the
long term growth of the required trees and shrubs and protect them with curbing.
11. Provide complete information on any additional site lighting proposed, including
manufacturer's cut sheets with all options identified (fixtures, lamps proposed, fixture
finish. etc.) and a photometric plan of the site. All site fixtures shall be full cut off.
12. Provide complete signage details including color, size and character of each sign.
Provide a consistent, comprehensive plan for wall signs for block nine. External
illumination of signage is preferred to internal illumination. All internally illuminated signs
must have opaque backgrounds. Provide a completed signage checklist of
requirements.
13. A dark roof color is preferred.
14. The proposed deck should contain a solid base and not be open on the bottom.
15. Change the yellow color proposed for the contemporary storefront to a less saturated
tone.
16. The development should be divided into three or four building groups, with each
individual group united throughout in material /color.
You may submit your application for preliminary ARB review at your earliest convenience. Application
forms, checklists and schedules are available on -line at www.albemarle.org /planning.
Revised drawings addressing the comments listed above are required. Please include a memo
outlining how each comment has been addressed. If changes other than those requested have been
made, identify those changes in the memo also.
If you have any questions concerning any of the above, please feel free to call me.
