• Indicating the use of one color for all tenant panel text and provide the Pantone number for that color.
Suggestion: requiring all tenant panel text to be the same burgundy color as the 1807 SEMINOLE
TRAIL text would be appropriate. This was not addressed.
• Including the following note regarding graphic colors: "There is no limit to the number of graphic
colors as long as the total number is limited to three and the colors contribute to a coordinated
appearance for the overall sign. "
• Including the following note regarding internal illumination of the sign: "The sign shall be internally
illuminated with LED. Only the text "1807 SEMINOLE TRAIL " and text or graphics on each tenant
panel shall illuminate. Each tenant panel shall have an opaque background and the sign cabinet shall
not illuminate. " This exact wording was not used on the drawing.
• Replace the current note regarding the intensity of LED illumination with the following note: "The
level of illumination provided by the LED lights will not exceed the illumination produced by a single
stroke of 30 milliamp (ma) neon. "
• Indicating the size (width and height) of each tenant panel face.
2. Include a photo rendering of the sign in its proposed location.
3. If the sign is to go in the same location as the existing sign and the existing plantings around the sign are to
remain, then add a note indicating that. If not, provide a plan view drawing showing the sign location and
provide a planting plan that integrates the sign with the existing plantings that are to remain.
Please contact me should you have any questions.
