Staff summarized the upcoming renovation plans involving replacement metal for Albemarle High School
and, in consensus, the ARB agreed that staff level review was acceptable.
b. 6$4 Berkmar Circle: Rooftop wireless installation
Staff summarized the proposed wireless installation and its anticipated visibility. In consensus, the ARB

level of visibility illustrated in the photosimulations was acceptable.
c. Shops at Westfield: frontage planting
Staff summarized the proposed landscape change involving frontage tree sizes smaller than required for the
Shops at Westfield. It was the consensus of the ARB that the frontage planting requirements should be met,

ARB encouraged the applicant to pursue measures to reduce required parking.

lot and the porch. After discussing the proposal, it was the consensus of the ARB that the shrubs in question
