Katherine,
I have completed my review of your sign proposal and how it meets established Architectural Review Board
(ARB) Sign Guidelines. The following issues have been identified that would need to be adequately addressed
for an administrative approval.
Sitn Location /Conflicts With Existing Landscaping
The sign location drawing shows the proposed sign where existing trees are located. See the two page
attachment showing the location of existing trees where the sign is proposed.
Recommendation: Revise the sign location drawing to show the proposed sign in the correct location, free of
conflicts with existing trees. Show the location of the existing trees on the drawing. The proposed sign should
be situated so that it is framed by the existing trees.
Miscellaneous
• The proposed length and height of each row of text is not indicated on the sign drawing.
• The proposed sign appears to be non - illuminated. If that is correct, revise the sign drawing by including a
note that the sign is to be non - illuminated.
Recommendation: Revise the sign drawing to include the length and height of each row of text. If the proposed
sign is to be non - illuminated, revise the sign drawing to indicate that.
You are welcome to contact me should you have any questions or concerns. Please reply by Thursday, July 12th
either with revised drawings addressing the comments above or an indication that you plan to revise accordingly
for an administrative approval.
