Importance: High
John - I have completed my review of your revised sign drawing received Monday, 12/09/2013. The following
comments (issues), outlined in my original email of 10/24/2013, have either not been addressed or not
adequately addressed.
Original comment: Revise the sign drawing to include the colors (& pantone numbers) for all parts of the sign structure,
including the sign base.
This comment has not been addressed.
• Revise the drawing to clearly indicate what color is proposed for each part of the sign.
• Either provide a sample of the Dryvit 612 Moonlight or put the Pantone equivalent number on the drawing.
• "PMS Black 7C Dark Bronze" — clearly indicate where this is proposed.
• "PMS Warm Gray 2C" — clearly indicate where this is proposed.
• "Sign Background : White" — What part of the sign are you referring to (the tenant panels ?) — be clear
• "Sign Copy: Duranodic 3630 -69" — What part of the sign are you referring to (all of the text ?) — be clear
Original comment: The photo- rendering makes the sign appear to be located in front of the existing landscaping. The
applicant has indicated the sign is to be located in the exact same location as the existing sign, inside the existing
landscaping. Revise the sign drawing to include notes explaining this discrepancy and indicating that the existing
landscaping is to remain.
• The note indicating the existing landscaping is to remain is not on the drawing.
Original comment: The note stating "Aluminum, extruded cabinet. Internally illuminated" contradicts the note
indicating external illumination is proposed. Revise the sign drawing by removing all requests (notes) for
internal illumination.
• This comment was not addressed in this latest resubmission.
Original comment: Provide a plan view drawing showing the location of the ground- mounted light fixture(s),
the sign and the landscaping around the sign. The fixture should be shielded by landscaping so that it is not
visible from any adjacent property or right -of -way.
• This comment was not addressed in this latest resubmission.
Original comment: Provide a cutsheet of the proposed light fixture.
• This comment was not addressed in this latest resubmission.
Original comment: Revise the photo - rendering to indicate the proposed bulb type and wattage. The bulb type & wattage
will need one that emits less than 3,000 lumens to avoid the full cutoff requirement.
• This comment was not addressed in this latest resubmission.
