ARB 12 -97, Shade Smith Sign, Staff Comments
Importance: High
Korby,
I have completed my review of the above -noted sign application and identified the following issues needing to
be adequately addressed for an administrative approval.
Text Dimensions /Overcrowding
ARB Sign Guidelines indicate that sign text should be in proportion to the overall sign.
• Text on the side wall sign appears to overcrowd the sign area at the top and sides — leaving an
insufficient border.
• Text on the front end gable sign appears to overcrowd the sign on the sides — leaving an insufficient
border.
• The drawing needs to be revised to include dimensions (width and height) for all rows of text.
Sign Lighting /Fixture Color
The proposed lighting fixture color was not indicated on the sign drawing; dark bronze or black would be
appropriate and should be noted on the sign drawing.
Please let me know by Friday, August 31st, sooner if possible, as to whether or not you intend to revise the proposal for an
administrative approval. You are welcome to contact me should you have any questions.
