Preliminary Review of a Site Plan and Architecture
Parcel Identification

Proposal
To establish a mixed -use development on 13 acres, including attached and detached dwelling units. Architectural designs for Blocks C and E are proposed.
Context
The subject parcel fronts on two Entrance Corridors. On Rt. 20, Parham Construction is located to the north/east of the site. Single family residences are located along
this stretch of the Rt. 20 Entrance Corridor. The east side of Rt. 20 is designated Rural Areas. There is a mix of development on Avon Street Extended, including
industrial, residential and institutional.
Visibility
The proposed development is expected to be clearly visible from both Entrance Corridors. The finished floor elevations of the townhouses adjacent to Avon Street are
well below the level of the street. At the north end, only the roofs will rise above street level. At the south end, the upper stories and roofs rise above street level. The
rows of units in Block C are oriented parallel to Rt. 20. The side elevation of Unite 41 will be visible. The front elevations of the Block C units will have some visibility
from the EC, but they would be viewed at an angle, at a distance, and through landscaping, so the view will be filtered. The view of the rear elevations will be filtered by
the staggered row of trees to be planted along the north property line.

PROJECT HISTORY
A rezoning for this property was approved in October of 2014. The ARB reviewed an Initial Site Plan for this development on January 21, 2016. The action letter from that meeting is included as
Attachment A to this report. Outstanding issues from that review are also listed in the Analysis table, below.
ANALYSIS
The Initial Site Plan review was limited to site plan issues. The current review is intended primarily to address the architectural design of the residential units proposed for Blocks C and E. Unresolved
site plan issues from the Initial Plan review have been carried forward in the following analysis.

39
The relationship of buildings and other structures to the Entrance
Corridor street and to other development within the corridor should
be as follows:
a. An organized pattern of roads, service lanes, bike paths, and
pedestrian walks should guide the layout of the site.
b. In general, buildings fronting the Entrance Corridor street should
be parallel to the street. Building groupings should be arranged to
parallel the Entrance Corridor street.
c. Provisions should be made for connections to adjacent pedestrian
and vehicular circulation systems.
d. Open spaces should be tied into surrounding areas to provide
continuity within the Entrance Corridor.
e. If significant natural features exist on the site (including creek
valleys, steep slopes, significant trees or rock outcroppings), to the
extent practical, then such natural features should be reflected in the
site layout. If the provisions of Section 32.5.6.n of the Albemarle
County Zoning Ordinance apply, then improvements required by
that section should be located so as to maximize the use of existing
features in screening such improvements from Entrance Corridor

views and vistas on and around the site.

SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff recommends the following as the primary points of discussion:
1. Anticipated visibility and views
2. The architectural design of the townhouses proposed for Blocks C and E
3. The proposed colors for the townhouses
Staff offers the following comments on the proposal:
1. Note for future submittals that the Block A building will need to address EC Guidelines requirements for scale, proportion, massing, detailing, lack of blankness, etc. A "back of building" appearance
will not be appropriate for elevations visible from Rt. 20.
2. Add the standard window glass note to the architectural drawings. Window glass in the Entrance Corridors should meet the following criteria: Visible light transmittance (VLT) shall not drop below
40% Visible light reflectance (VLR) shall not exceed 3091o. Specifications on the proposed window glass should be submitted with the application for final review.
3. A screening fence detail indicating size, material and color is needed in the plan. Vinyl with a shiny surface is not an appropriate material for this fence.
4. Add the standard mechanical equipment note to both the site and architectural plans. "Visibility of all mechanical equipment from the Entrance Corridor shall be eliminated."
5. Revise the plant schedule to identify all proposed plants by species.
6. Revise the plans to clearly show all utility lines with their associated easements. Provide sufficient planting area, free of utilities and easements, along both ECs. Provide documentation from
easement holders that there is no objection to the planting as proposed.
7. Clarify the extent of tree removal and tree replacement planned with off -site work along the ECs. Show how an appropriate appearance for the EC will be maintained.
8. Provide 2'/2" caliper large trees, spaced 40' on center, at the perimeter of the parking lot located at Road C. Also provide 5 interior parking lot trees at 2'/s" caliper.
9. Provide shrubs, minimum 24" high at planting, on the south side of the parking lot at Road C, to screen the parked cars as viewed from the EC.
10. Revise the plant schedule to identify all proposed plants by species.
11. Add the standard plant health note to the plan.
12. "All site plantings of trees and shrubs shall be allowed to reach, and be maintained at, mature height; the topping of trees is prohibited. Shrubs and trees shall be pruned minimally and only to
support the overall health of the plant."
13. Provide material and color samples for the retaining walls. Indicate material and color on the site plan.
14. Revise the plan to show a temporary landscape treatment for the sediment basin located at the northeast corner of the property to establish an appropriate appearance for the EC.
15. Clarify phasing on the plan, including related landscape development.
