Rita,
I have completed my review of your resubmission and identified the following issues that need to be addressed:
Freestanding Sign:
• PMS color numbers: The drawing does not contain the PMS color numbers for the 7 Eleven cabinet
• Illumination: The drawing does not indicate the type of illumination for each refaced cabinet. The previous
drawing indicated the use of LED. Required notes for LED are not included in this drawing.
• Revise the sign drawing to show the total height of the "Exxon" text and the "7" in 7 Eleven.
• Revise the sign drawing to include a list of the sign materials (e.g. acrylic, vinyl etc)
Canopy Sign:
• Canopy sign drawing does not indicate (label) the sign type.
• If channel letter, revise the drawing to include a channel letter detail, showing its method of attachment
(direct -mount vs raceway) and method of illumination (face -lit or halo -lit). If halo -lit, include note that face
and return of channel letters shall be opaque.
• Revise the drawing to include the bulb type. If LED, include required LED notes.
• Canopy sign drawing does not include the PMS number for the proposed red color.
• Canopy sign drawing does not label the fascia as white. Revise to include a note to that effect.
• Canopy sign drawing does not include the previously requested note: "The canopy fascia shall be non-
illuminated"
• Revise the sign drawing to include a list of the sign materials (e.g. acrylic, vinyl etc)
Please remember that all ARB required information has to be on each revision - versus spreading the information out over
several submissions (drawings).

Rita: Drawings revised and please note there is no bronze.
Gordon: Attached is what they are allowing. Brent Nelson says when the canopy was presented to them that it was
understood there would be no stripe on canopy. Can you confirm?
Thank you,

For your convenience I have copied and pasted parts of Mr. Nelson's e-mail, that you might have to contact your
customer with to get approval for the changes.
His entire e-mail is at the bottom of this e-mail ..... the other issues I can address but thought you might have to address
these, if you have any questions let me know.
Sign Color:
The 7 Eleven sign panel is proposing the use of Bronze PMS 19 -1116. We do not have that color in our Pantone
Guide. Please provide a color sample
• For the 7 Eleven panel add the note: "Only the number 7 and the text ELEVEN shall illuminate. The
white and green backgrounds shall be opaque"
Canopy Sign
Sign Type:
ARB Sign Guidelines encourage the use of channel letters as they allow the structure to show through. This
proposal is for a cabinet sign while the canopy face could accommodate channel letters. Revise the sign drawing
to show the use of red channel letters.
Sign Locations:
The exact location of the canopy signs cannot be determined from the drawings provided. Revise the sign
drawings to clearly indicate the location of each canopy sign.
Canopy Face Color:
The ARB previously approved drawings for the canopy indicate the face of the canopy is to be white only.
Revise the sign drawings by removing the red stripe.

Rita,
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.
Freestanding Sign
Sign Color:
• The 7 Eleven sign panel is proposing the use of Bronze PMS 19 -1116. We do not have that color in our
Pantone Guide. Please provide a color sample.
Internal Illumination /Opaque Background:
The sign drawing states: "Sign faces will be opaque only letters and logos will be illuminated". Revise this note
to state: "All sign panels shall have opaque backgrounds ". Revise the sign drawing to include the following
notes:
• For the Exxon panel add the note: "Only the text and blue line shall illuminate "
• For the pricing panel add the note: "Only the text and pricing numbers shall illuminate"
• For the All American Car Wash Panel add the note: "Only the text shall illuminate"
• For the 7 Eleven panel add the note: "Only the number 7 and the text ELEVEN shall illuminate. The
white and green backgrounds shall be opaque"
Canopy Sign
Sign Type:
ARB Sign Guidelines encourage the use of channel letters as they allow the structure to show through. This
proposal is for a cabinet sign while the canopy face could accommodate channel letters. Revise the sign drawing
to show the use of red channel letters.
Sign Locations:
The exact location of the canopy signs cannot be determined from the drawings provided. Revise the sign
drawings to clearly indicate the location of each canopy sign.
Canopy Face Color:
The ARB previously approved drawings for the canopy indicate the face of the canopy is to be white only.
Revise the sign drawings by removing the red stripe.
Canopy Illumination:
The ARB approved drawings for the canopy indicate the face of the canopy shall not be illuminated. Revise the
sign drawing to include the following note: "The canopy fascia shall be non - illuminated"
Please let me know by Thursday, August 23rd, sooner if possible, as to whether or not you intend to revise the proposal for
an administrative approval. Revised drawings are not required by that date. You are welcome to contact me should you
have any questions.
