The following revisions are requested to make the proposal consistent with the Entrance Corridor Sign Guidelines. 1. The application fee of $129 has been paid. However, because of a mistake in the "incompleteness" letter, from 3/7/2017, more fee then required was paid. Please email Jeri Smith (jsmith2(a),albemarle.org) to request a refund for the amount over paid which should be $59. 2. The height of each line of text must be provided in dimensions or notes. Please include those notes on the "sign plan" itself and not in a separate text document. Also, although some text heights were provided they were not complete. Text heights for the "SVOE" and "MoneyWise" portions of the sign must also be included. 3. The Pantone equivalent color numbers for each color used in the sign must be provided within the "sign plan" itself and not in a separate text document. Also, "Grey", "Blue" and "Light Grey 656 C" do not appear to be valid Pantone colors. For the "Grey" and `Blue" the Pantone # must also be included. For the "Grey" it also must specify "warm" or "cool" grey. Although "Light Grey 656 C" appears to be a complete Pantone name/number it does not appear to exist on the Pantone formula guide search webpage. There is a "Pantone 656" that appear almost grey in the formula guide, but they appear to be in the blue color spectrum and are not considered to be grey. Provided Pantone equivalent color numbers for all colors being utilized in the sign on the "Sign Plan" sheet. 4. Specify the type of illumination for the sign, even if it is existing, and add the appropriate note to the "sign plan". It appears that existing internal lighting will be utilized. However, nothing in the sign plan specifies that. If existing ground mounted lighting will be used to illuminate the sign add a note to the sign plan that states, "Existing ground mounted lighting to remain. Any change to the illumination type or intensity must first obtain ARB approval and an approved electrical permit." If the sign will not be illuminated then a note should state, "This sign has been approved as a non -illuminated sign (no lighting). To add lighting, the applicant must first obtain ARB approval and an approved electrical permit." 5. Ensure that the overall height of the Helix portion of the sign, the multi -circle logo, and combined height of the SVOE and MoneyWise portion of the sign are the same and aligned with each other. No portion the sign should be higher or lower on the sign then the other portions of the sign. The sign must look like an integrated whole and the logo must not be larger or higher than the text portions of the sign. 6. Ensure that the space between the Helix portion of the sign and the left edge of the overall sign is no larger than the space between the SVOE/MoneyWise portion of the sign and the right edge of the sign. There appears to be a larger space on the left side of the sign. The sign must look like an integrated whole and the logo must not be closer to one side than the other. 7. Specify on the "sign plan" that the sign has two sides and that those two sides will be identical. 8. The information in the text document provided, once edited as specified above, should be integrated into the "sign plan" and not submitted as a separate document. Please respond by email within 15 days of the date of this letter indicating whether you will or will not proceed with these revisions. Your decision to make the revisions will suspend the 60-day review period associated with your original submittal. If you choose to complete the revisions, please email the revised drawings to me. If you choose not to proceed with these revisions, staff will be unable to approve your application. Failure to respond to this letter shall be presumed to be a request to proceed to action on the application without further revisions.
