Reviews Comments:The ARB guidelines consider ‘text’ and ‘graphics’ as separate elements; they don’t necessarily
consider ‘logos’. In this case, the ‘logo’ contains both text (“Molly Maid”) and graphics (the hat/cap).
The comprehensive sign plan for this shopping center limits the text color to white, so the “Molly
Maid” text portion of the logo will need to be revised to white. The ARB would also prefer that the
graphic portion be white, but the comprehensive sign plan doesn’t specify that limitation. So, if you’re
agreeable to changing the entire logo to white, that would be great; otherwise, please revise the text
portion to white. All of the other comments have been addressed.

Subject: ARB201600036 Molly Maid - Sign
Robert,
I have reviewed the above -noted ARB sign application, located at 3500 Seminole Trail, and have the following
comments:
Text Color: The sign drawings indicate the text is proposed to be both white and pink . Approved sign criteria for
the shopping center require that the lettering be white. Revise the sign drawings to indicate that all text is white.
Background Color: The sign drawings are difficult to read but it appears the background color is proposed to be
pantone 249C. On the drawings the sign appears blue, but pantone 249C is a deep pink; please clarify the color
proposed and make sure the correct pantone number is provided on all sign drawings.
Lighting Note: It appears that the existing lighting is proposed to remain for both wall signs; if this is true, please
add the note "Existing external illumination to remain". If the existing lighting is changing, please include
information on any new/revised lighting proposed.
Please respond within 15 days of the date of this email indicating whether you will or will not proceed with these revisions.
