Subject: FW: GE FANUC - Sign Locations
Greg - below is an excerpt from the 5/19/08 ARB Action Memo, as it pertains to the GE Fanuc sign
proposal. The action memo is not finalized and approved yet - so the wording is subject to possible
change. The Action Memo will be approved later next week by the ARB. I just wanted you to have what
I have so far.
Motion: Ms. Smith moved that the GE Fanuc sign proposal be rejected and redesigned as follows:
1. The proposed signs do not meet the guidelines as currently designed.
2. The proportion of the white background to the colored lettering/logo is inappropriate.
3. The number of colors does not meet the guidelines.
4. The frame of the sign needs to be better integrated with the overall sign design.
5. The ARB will comment on the lighting when a revised design is submitted.
Second: Mr... Wright seconded the motion.
The motion passed by a vote of 5:0.
This proposal would continue to be reviewed administratively. Please let me know how you and your
applicant plan on proceeding.
Thanks,
Brent

Greg - At the 5/19/08 ARB meeting, I asked the Board for some direction on what they would allow us
to approve. I want to keep this review administrative; however, I needed additional input from the Board

in order to be able to do that. They provided this input at the meeting. The recording secretary is
supposed to have what they said in a written form this week, so I can forward that on to you.
