The only issue the Department has at this time is with the design of the signage for the property.
The renovation of the site, which includes changing the number and location of signk on the
property, requires that the site meet the signage requirements. The property is only ~ermitted by
right one 40-square-foot, eight-foot-tall sign. The Department would like to see the lapplicant
propose alternatives that are much closer in conformance with the Ordinance. Ulturlately, it will
be the decision of the Board of Zoning Appeals as the number, size and location of ~igns that will

be permitted on the site. .
The Department recommends that this Item be forwarded to the Special Studies
