Dear Mr. Akers:
I have reviewed your request for the above -noted sign. Because this sign design is similar to the previously
approved sign and because the design otherwise meets the ARB design guidelines, I am able to review this
proposal administratively for the ARB. I have approved a sign of the design outlined below. You may
consider this letter your Certificate of Appropriateness.

sign band

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 an amendment to the application and must be reviewed and approved by the Architectural Review
Board.
PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING:
1. This approval does not include the refacing of the pylon sign. On June 13, 2008 Christie Pruitt of
Hilton Displays withdrew the proposal for the pylon sign.
2. This approval does not include any window signs. If window signs are proposed, a separate
application must be made, reviewed and approved by the Architectural Review Board.
3. Please note that logo and channel letters with translucent faces shall be constructed such that no
light spills outward from the top, bottom, sides or back.
If you have any questions concerning any of the above, please feel free to call me.
Sincerely,
Margaret Maliszewski
