Subject: ARB 15-137 Weedon Professional Center - Sign
Mr. Gaydos,
I have reviewed the proposed sign application and have the following comments:
1. 1 understand Stewart contacted you about the proposed light fixture and you provided a revised sets of
drawings with the new fixture; please provide a full-size copy of any revised drawings (the copy I received is
8.5x11 and I can't read much of the text). (Emailed PDF is fine)
2. Provide a landscape plan with the following:
• Clearly show the sign and light fixture locations.
• Show the locations and species of existing plants that will remain.
• Add additional plants to integrate the sign into the overall landscape.
• Add low evergreen shrubs around the sign base to help screen the poles.
• Add low evergreen shrubs around the proposed light fixtures to shield them from view.
• Provide the species and size of all proposed plantings (18"-24" at planting is the minimum requirement).
3. Since LED lighting is now proposed, please add the following note to the drawing, "The level of illumination
provided by the LED lights will not exceed the illumination produced by a single stroke of 30 milliamp (ma) neon."
Please respond within 15 days of the date of this email indicating whether you will or will not proceed with these revisions.
Your decision to make the revisions will suspend the 60 -day review period associated with your original submittal. If you
choose to complete the revisions, please email the revised drawings to me. If you choose not to proceed with these
