RE: ARB-2017-115: Sapon & Swisher Dental
Dear Mr. Schafer,
The Albemarle County Architectural Review Board reviewed the above noted item at its meeting on
Monday, December 4, 2017. The Board, by a vote of 4:0 approved the request, pending staff
administrative approval of the following conditions:
1. Provide a more developed north elevation including fencing, materials and composition.
2. Correct the plant schedule to correspond with the number of plants shown on the landscape
plan (C105 of the site plan set).
3. Reduce and limit the number of proposed plants for any one species to 25% of the total for
that plant type by adding more variety. Reconsider the plantings along Whitewood for better
year-round screening.
4. Clarify on Existing Conditions sheet (C102) of the site plan set if the wooden rail fence on
northern property line is to be demolished.
5. Provide a complete lighting plan that includes all proposed freestanding and wail -mounted
lights with the final site plan.
6. Intersperse ornamentals among the large shade trees on the EC frontage.
7. Update the Existing Conditions sheet (C102) within the site plan set to show which trees in
the northeast corner will be removed for poor health.
8. Clarify the sign easement area delineated on the Existing Conditions sheet (C102) within the
site plan.
9. Revise the landscape plan to verify that the proposed trees on the west side of the property
will not conflict with existing utilities. Ensure that the proposed development meets the
landscape guidelines.
10. Provide two large shade trees on the interior of the parking area along the Whitewood side.
11. Add standard plant health note to the landscape plan (C105) of the site plan set: 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.
12. Show adequate tree protection fencing on the site plan set.
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
