I just identified the Price Kia permits are still open. It appears I sent an email to you on a 9/8/15 Price Kia agreed to comply to all the notes in your request letter, however, I do not have any additional correspondence via Noel to you or myself. I know the footer and brick base is being reused, the white background is opaque, and the dealership is fulfilling the landscape requirements to become compliant. Can you let me know what, if anything, you may require from Hightech Signs or the dealership (for landscaping) to move this permitting to fulfillment? Thank you again Margaret. I greatly appreciate your understanding and assistance in this matter.

I have attached a scan of the drawings in my ARB file for the existing sign (ARB- 1 2004-57), but I can't be 100% sure thaTthe sign was built to those drawings. I've also included a scan of the approved sign location drawing. I spoke with Keith Huckstep about the footer. He said that if the existing was re-used, he wouldn't necessarily need a new footer/foundation drawing for the replacement sign. If you need more info,just let me know. Margaret Margaret M.
