Jeff,
I am sending this email as a follow up to our phone conversation earlier today. As discussed, I have identified
the following issues that will need to be addressed for approval.
Comprehensive Sign Review
It appears that a Comprehensive Sign Review has never been conducted for this building located on TMP
056A2- 01 -00- 02700. I am in the process of determining whether or not this review has to be done to approve
your application. I should have an answer by Monday, September 17th. If such a review is required, it would be
taken to the Architectural Review Board for a full review. We would see about moving the review date up from
October 15th to October 1St
Other Issues:
Please revise the sign drawing to include the following information on the drawing:
• The height of the sign text.
• A note indicating the optional integrated extruded aluminum cutoff visor is being used.
• A note indicating the proposed fluorescent bulb wattage. The wattage needs to be less than 35 watts to
avoid the full cutoff (Dark Skies) requirement.
• The proposed color of the light fixture. You indicated it would be as close in color to the wall as
available which would be appropriate.
Please email the revised sign drawing at your earliest convenience. I asked Stewart Wright to call you regarding
the application/process for obtaining a temporary sign permit should that become necessary.
