The following revisions are requested to make the proposal consistent with the Entrance Corridor Sign Guidelines. 1. The wall signs must comply with the ARB Comprehensive Sign Review Approved Conditions for Town and Country Shopping Center (enclosed), which state that a. Signs placed on the Corner Towers must be centered horizontally and vertically above the awning and below the second story windows. Please vertically center the signs on the corner towers. It is apparent from the photograph of the south elevation of the building which you included in your application that a light has been centered vertically and horizontally in the southeastern corner tower, and that the placement of this light precludes the centralized placement of the proposed signage. Unfortunately, the placement of this light was not approved by the ARB in the final site plan while the placement of future signage was very specifically delineated by the ARB in the Town and Country Shopping Center's Comprehensive Sign Review Approved Conditions. Therefore, the placement of the sign trumps placement of the light. The light fixture will need to be lowered in order for the signage to comply. 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, Heather McMahon Senior Planner cc: ARB -2017-33 Tap Investments LLC, 2903 N.
