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. Proposed window signs for the entrance door in the southwest elevation, as shown on AGI Drawing #5.5, latest revision
date 1/7/09, do not require ARB approval due to their lack of visibility from the Entrance Corridor. If additional window
signs are proposed, a separate application must be made, reviewed and approved by the Architectural Review Board.
If you have any questions concerning any of the above, please feel free to call me.
Sincerely,
Brent Nelson
Landscape Planner
