Importance: High
Mr. Ventura,
I am the planner handling the review of your ARB (Architectural Review Board) sign application for the above -
noted sign. I am unable to complete my review of your application due to its incompleteness. The following
items were not addressed in your application.
o Indication of sign type (channel letters, cabinet, panel, etc.). The photo- rendering does not label the sign type and the
materials used on the sign.
o Indicate on the drawings the proposed materials and colors. Include standard color identification numbers (Pantone,
Benjamin Moore, Acrylic, etc.) for all materials, text, graphics, faces, trim caps, etc. For channel letter signs, indicate on the
drawing that the raceway color shall match the color of the wall to which the raceway is attached. The photo- rendering
does not indicate the Pantone number for the proposed colors. Pantone numbers are not required for white.
o Provide accurate physical samples of all colors proposed in the sign, preferably in the material proposed. (Paint chips that
accurately reflect the proposed colors are acceptable.) A color sample can be provided in place of providing a Pantone
number on the drawing.
o Location of proposed light fixtures and manufacturer cut sheets describing illumination type, intensity, style, shielding,
color, and height. All lighting must meet ordinance requirements as outlined in Section 4.17. This was not addressed in the
sign application.
Below are the approved Comprehensive Sign Criteria for signs at this location (Woodbrook Shopping Center)
have hi -lited in yellow the two areas where your photo- rendering, as submitted, currently does not meet those
criteria.
