RE: ARB -2016-38: Gropen Design & Fabrication Facility Final
Dear Mr. Pineo,
The Albemarle County Architectural Review Board reviewed the above noted item at its meeting on Monday,
May 2, 2016. The Board, by a vote of 4:0, approved the request, pending staff administrative approval of the
following conditions:
1. Key proposed materials to the elevations and include a material/color legend on the elevation
sheets.
2. Indicate on the plans the VLT and VLR for the proposed window glass. Add the standard window
glass note to the 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 30%.
3. Add the standard mechanical equipment note to the plan: Visibility of all mechanical equipment
from the Entrance Corridor shall be eliminated.
4. Adjust the lighting design to eliminate spillover in excess of .5 fc at the property line along the EC.
5. Provide the cut sheets for the light fixtures on one of the site plan sheets. Note on the plan all
options chosen for the fixtures. Ensure that all fixtures emitting 3,000 lumens or more are full
cutoff fixtures.
6. If exterior building -mounted lights are proposed, include complete information on the plan.
7. Revise the light fixtures to have a consistent lamp type.
8. Confirm that no previously existing lighting is to remain. If there is existing site lighting to remain,
include all relevant information on the lighting plan (locations, lamp type, fc levels).
9. Revise the lighting plan to identify the pole and fixture color.
10. Indicate on the lighting plan if bases are proposed for the light poles. If they are, adjust the design
so that maximum pole height is 20', including the height of the base. Add a note to the plan
confirming this.
11. Add the standard lighting note to the plans. "Each outdoor luminaire equipped with a lamp that
emits 3,000 or more initial lumens shall be a full cutoff luminaire and shall be arranged or shielded
to reflect light away from adjoining residential districts and away from adjacent roads. The
spillover of lighting from luminaires onto public roads and property in residential or rural areas
zoning districts shall not exceed one half footcandle."
12. Revise the landscape plan to show the full extent of the EC frontage on the plan.
13. Identify trees by species that are intended to remain along the EC. Future landscape development
along the EC will be required to meet EC Guidelines.
14. Correct all of the plant calculations on the landscape plan and show the required plants. Correct
the frontage measurement on C0.1. Provide large trees along the entrance drive, 2'/2" caliper at
planting, 40' on center.
15. Provide perimeter parking lot trees, 40' on center, 2'/2" caliper minimum at planting, along the
southern parking row.
16. Add the standard plant health note to the plan. "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."
17. Confirm metal panel reflectivity is within range of panels approved for Albemarle High School and
Regal Cinema.
Please provide:
1. Two full sets of revised drawings addressing each of these conditions. Include updated ARB revision
dates on each drawing.
2. A memo including detailed responses indicating how each condition has been satisfied. 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.
3. The attached "Revised Application Submittal" form. This form must be returned with your revisions to
ensure proper tracking and distribution.
When staff's review of this information indicates that all conditions of approval have been met, a Certificate of
Appropriateness may be issued.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
