RE: ARB -2016-79: Shear Power Sign
Dear Tara,
We have received the above -referenced sign application. Items were missing from the submittal and it
appears that the proposal does not meet all of the relevant design guidelines. The outstanding issues are:
1. The $120 fee has not been paid.
2. The sign colors are not indicated on the drawings. (The white and black are obvious, but is
"Power" gray, or purple, or something else?)
3. The backgrounds of cabinet signs must be opaque. It appears that this sign has an existing
translucent white background.
Revisions are needed to address these issues. Please respond by email within 15 days of the date of this
letter 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
revisions, staff will be unable to approve your application. Failure to respond to this letter shall be
presumed to be a request to proceed to action on the application without further revisions.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
Margaret Maliszewski
Principal Planner
