RE: ARB-2018-26: NTB Wall Signs and Comprehensive Sign Plan
The Albemarle County Architectural Review Board reviewed the above noted item at its meeting on Monday,
April 2, 2018. The Board took the following actions:
1. Regarding the proposed revisions to the Comprehensive Sign Plan
The ARB, by a vote of 3:0, approved the revised criteria outlined in the table on the following page,
including the addition of yellow Pantone 123C as an approved color and limiting blue to Pantone
294C.
2. Regarding the NTB Tire wall signs
The ARB, by a vote of 3:0, approved the request, subject to the revised Comprehensive Sign Criteria.
Revised drawings addressing #2 were received in our office today. A Certificate of Appropriateness will be
issued for the wall signs once we've confirmed that the revised drawings identify the approved color numbers.
If you have any questions concerning any of the above, please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
