You may consider this letter your Certificate of Appropriateness. This approval is predicated on the fact that the design and
materials, as proposed and listed above, will be used. The acceptance of approval implies that the applicant has agreed to execute
the design as indicated on the submittal items presented, and as listed above. Any changes in the approved sign or materials will
require a new application and additional review.

X “Opaque” means that light will not pass through the material. Consequently, the color of the background portion
of the face of the sign will not be visible when the sign is internally illuminated at night. If you have any question
about this requirement for an opaque background, do not proceed with the construction or installation of the sign
until you have spoken with County staff.
