The following revisions are requested to make the proposal consistent with the Entrance Corridor Sign Guidelines. Regarding the wall sign: 1. The proposed sign type does not meet the approved comprehensive sign criteria for this building, so it cannot be approved. Please revise the design to meet the approved criteria (attached). 2. An illuminated background cannot be approved. Please revise the proposal accordingly. Regarding the tenant panel refacing: 1. Indicate on the drawing the Pantone equivalent for the yellow background. 2. Indicate on the drawing the type of illumination of the sign: either existing internal illumination or no illumination. 3. Revise the sign drawing to show an opaque background if the sign has internal illumination. 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.
