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. This approval includes no window signs.
PLEASE NOTE: "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.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
