Could you please let the intake staff know that they are intended for Rebecca and me?

I mixed up Rebecca and Margaret. My apologies. The note for "fabricator to field verify dimension" was removed from most pages, see attached. So I will reprint four full sets and bring them to your office today. We have selected Gropen as the fabricator and their Class A contractor's license is: #2705 093618A. I believe this information needs to go on the permit application. Sorry for the confusion.

To clarify, sign applications are not taken to the ARB (board) for review unless there is an issue that needs the board's guidance. They are administratively reviewed/approved by ARB staff within a few weeks, as long as all of the materials and/or revisions are submitted for review within a timely manner. I am confused, however, by the remainder of your email. Margaret is ARB staff, as am I; she is not reviewing your application, and therefore did not make a request for revisions that I am aware of... Rebecca Ragsdale, my colleague in Zoning who is also reviewing this application to ensure it complies with the Zoning Ordinance, has asked that you revise the plan set to show the actual dimensions of each sign in lieu of the note, "Fabricator to confirm sign dimensions of existing signs prior to fabrication of new signs." Are these the revisions you are alluding to? If you have updated other sheets in your application package besides the one I asked you to update, please send those sheets to me as well so that Rebecca and I have the same application package(s) to review. We need to keep the permits consistent. Again, you can send me digital copies that I will print out here, just let me know exactly what pages have been revised.

Will the ARB review this package in September or October? Margaret — Rodger has revised the application drawings per your comments, how many copies would you like me to deliver to your office. We have also selected Gropen, Inc. to complete fabrication and installation once the permit has been approved by County & ARB. I have copied Mike & Tanya on this e-mail so they are looped into the status of the permit process.

However, the plan set must be revised to show the actual dimensions of the signs.

Rodger will be reaching out to you in the near future if he hasn't already. We had a couple of questions regarding refacing the signs: 1. The structural wood beams that support our oval signs can they be repaired/replaced with wooden beams of the same size and shape if we re -sue all the same hardware ? N Thank you, Annette Our billboard sign, when refacing it can we eliminate the decorative green scroll on each side as it is unnecessary and purely decorative?

We are in the process of changing the Boar's Head logo and would like to update these signs soon. If we are just re -facing these signs as designed with new BH logo, are we required to get a certificate of appropriateness?

Are we dealing with non -conforming signs? I can send you the non -conforming section of the sign ordinance that allows them to be structurally altered if size and height are reduced. We also allow refacing of non -conforming signs. Here is a link to the ordinance: http://www.albemarle.org/upload/images/Forms Center/Departments/County Attorney/Forms/Albemarle County Co de Ch18 Zoning04 General Regulations.pdf Most likely, they will need sign permits. Here is a link to the application package page you can share with the consultant. I've copied Margaret too because they are along the Entrance Corridor. http://www.albemarle.org/signs If you could send a tax map of where these signs are located that would help expedite things too. I can't tell if these are in the VDOT ROW or not and will need to determine what they are zoned to provide additional feedback. Hopefully this is enough information to get you started. Once we have some additional information from you we can provide more guidance. Rebecca Boar's Head has four signs along Route 250 (see photos below). We are in the process of changing our logo and need to know what parts of the exiting signs need to remain and if there is a review process that is required. 10 Also, who would be the best person at the County to have our Branding Agency contact with questions? Thank you, 11
