RE: ARB -2017-56: Uplevel Martial Arts Sign
Dear Brion,
I have reviewed the above -noted sign application. The following revisions are requested to make the proposal consistent
with the Comprehensive Sign Plan approved for this shopping center (see attached/highlighted).
1. The approved sign type is reverse channel letters. Please revise the proposal accordingly.
2. The approved design criteria require a single letter color. Please revise the proposal accordingly.
3. The approved color for the panel face is Gray PMS 423 C. Please revise the proposal accordingly.
4. The approved illumination type for graphics is halo -lit or non -illuminated. Please revise the proposal accordingly.
5. The Comprehensive Sign Plan notes that channel letters must be offset from the sign panel to allow for the halo
effect. Please revise the proposal accordingly.
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 about this action, please contact me as soon as possible.
Sincerely,
Margaret Maliszewski
