Vireinia - 22601 August ?U, 1987 Dr. Paul vrunmeier Vice President of Administration Project Hope 11illwood, Virginia 222646 Dear Paul: We have watched the construction of your warehouse on Hufflick Road with great interest. we were pleased to see your trucks rolling in today - indicating that you have met the dealine necessary for moving your warehouse stock from Dulles. The building i.s indeed handsome. It sets a desired tone and is a hallmark of a class operation. As you near the final stages of construction and landscaping, we have a few questions: 1. Is the buffer between Project Hope and the immediate neighbor to the west adequate? Do you feel it meets the commitment made to the community? Would an additional lane of gretin staggered between the existing trees be wise? ?. The bay doors on the east side of the building are inordinately stark. Would it be possible to paint them to match the dark: brown door surround at the office entrance? This would blend them in well with the other earth tone colors you have chosen. 31, We assume there will be shrubbery and green areas included in your landscaping plan for the space in the front and at the base of the building. 4. Would you let us have your plans for any outdoor signage that you are proposing to use. (See article VI of the protective covenants if you have any questions). We look forward to hearing from you on these matters. It is a pleasure having you here in the Upper Valley Business Park. CDA/f 1 a Sincerely yours. C. Douglas Adams 2 7. s"Z '�✓�`'`�'�k'i �� N��ei Y(1 �{,�`/ 1 t?� a� e'?~•u:e 7�,,','3 r „ ��rCCD fi ."} THE PROJECT HOPE HEALTH SCIENCES EDUCATION CENTER, MILLWOOD, VIRGINIA 226461(703)837-2100 August 24, 1987 Mr. C. Douglas Adams 6930 Little River Turnpike Annandale, Va. 22003 Dear Doug: We too are pleased with the progress Shockey Bros. has made in the construction. The building is scheduled for completion by September 1, 1987 and we will have completed our move by that time. Concerning your questions: 1. The trees planted as a buffer on the west side of the building meet the Planning Commission requirement. The trees will grow and spread considerably over the next two to three seasons and an adequate but not dense buffer will be obtained. The resident of the house on that side is watering the trees for us and is pleased with the fact that we planted the trees. In our opinion the screening is adequate. 2. Approval to paint the bay doors has already been given to Shockey Bros. 3. The shrubbery plan for the front of the building has not yet been developed. When it is completed, we will send a copy for your review. Since, as you know, we are close to our maximum allowable spending, this shrubbery plan will be designed to screen the electric meter and the refrigerator condenser pad and soften the front exterior lines, it will not be a lavish rendering at this time. 4. No plans are completed for signage. The only direction I have at this time is that a) there will be no sign on the building property and b) signage will be small,unobtrusive and in good taste similar to the sign at HOPE Center. Once final plans are available they will be sent to you for review. I believe the last time we talked you indicated that with the sale of the property to the airport there were soine covenant restrictions which were waived. You indicated that you would be Board of Directors: W.N. Conzen, Chairman; Eugene R. Black, Herbert J. Bloom, D.D.S., Mrs. Edward N. Cole, J. Edward Day, W.L. Henry, Gene F. Jankowski, L.W.

Is my recollection correct? If so, I have not seen these waivers to date. Once we have the interior of the facility organized, we will have you over to see the operation. Thank you also for the lovely plant. It immediately brightened the stack area in the Warehouse and made things friendlier. Sincerely, 6�� Paul W.

Grunmeier Vice President, Administration Project Hope Mi11wood , VA 2'2�646 Dear Paul: Thank you for your letter of August 24 on the subject of your warehouse/office here in the Upper Valley business Park, and for your attention to our questions. 1. The bay doors are handsome. They were painted almost before we received your letter. Also, we notice the well - designed step-up entrance to the office which provides more green space around the side of the building. 2. Your shrubbery plans for the front of the building sound quite good and adequate. We will look forward to your signage plans when they become available. 4. One matter remains a serious concern, i.e., the green buffer on the west side of the building. Although your neighbor appears to be satisfied, in fact, the Frederick County Planning authority has indicated that it is lacking. Our understanding of "adequate" buffer betwen warehousing and residential is that, at ground level, the warehouse cannot be seen at all. However, if you would speak with Bob Watkins, Director of Planning (665-5651), this can be resolved to their satisfaction, without misunderstanding. I am sure you appreciate that this is a landmark situation and will set the tone and theme for all to follow. Therefore, it is important that the initial requirements be met, as was agreed at the Board of Supervisors meetings. Rt. I, Box 206A 0 Bufflick Rd. 0 Winchester, Va. 22601 0 703/662-7000 The waiver as to the airport purchase will be forthcpming shortly. Many thanks for your continued cooperation.

DEPT. OF PLAN NINa o !, I.i RU1�03) 100 September 21, 1987 In reference to our conversation on Friday afternoon, September 11, 1987, I am enclosing a copy of landscaping plan which we reviewed. It is my understanding that this plan will provide the necessary coverage to meet the requirements of "adequate screening". Thank you for meeting with me on quick notice and thank you for your consideration of the landscape plan. I believe we are making the effort to both screen and beautify the property and I think the approved plan will, in time, do just that. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to call. We would like to have everything completed by early October but are, at this point, waiting review and approval by Upper Valley Business Park as required in the covenants.
