ARB 13 -24, Brown Freestanding Sign, Staff Comments
Noel — I have completed my review of the above -noted sign refacing. The following issues have been identified
and will need to be adequately addressed for an administrative approval.
Colors:
• Revise the sign drawing to clearly indicate the proposed cabinet frame color(s).
• Revise the list of colors on the drawing to include the sign background color and the colors for the
Dodge Ram and Chrysler Badge graphics; include Pantone numbers.
• The color blocks are incorrectly paired with the color names on the list of colors; please correct.
• Is a white outline proposed for the DODGE text? Please clarify. If yes, provide the width of the outline.
Text:
Revise the sign drawing to include the dimensions (length, width & height) of the text and graphics.
Illumination:
• The existing sign was approved for internal, fluorescent lighting only. The proposed sign drawing
indicates internal fluorescent and LED halo - lighting? Provide a lighting drawing showing the LED
lights and indicating what is halo -lit.
Opaque Background:
• Section 4.15.15(c) of the Zoning Ordinance requires that all internally illuminated cabinet signs have an
opaque background. Revise the sign drawing to include the following note: The proposed sign is to have a
non - illuminated background, or an opaque (zero light transmission) background, only the text and graphics shall
illuminate.
Please contact me should you have any questions or concerns.
