Sent: Thursday, December 17, 2009 4:32 PM To: 'Paul G. Reis' Cc: Conn, Angelina V; Holmes, Christine B; 'Laurie Britton' Subject: RE: Additional Information on Lowes Way Bank Parcel Zoning and Access Hi Paul, I apologize for taking a while to get these comments to you. I think everyone has turned in signage at the same time! Anyway...generally the signage is fine for the bank. Here are my thoughts based on the sign package from the InSite Group: 1. Ground sign: size is OK, design is a little bland...is there any way to make it more formal? Rather than a cabinet on a brick base? Perhaps adding a stone cap or making the sign more horizontal rather than square. 2. Walls sign west: OK except in building details page (Sebree Architects) it shows a 53.08 sq. ft. sign instead of the 32.77 sq. ft. one shown in the sign package. This should be changed to reflect the sign package. 3. Wall sign north: OK 4. Directional sign: OK 5. Directional sign: OK 6. Directional sign: OK 7. Traffic sign: OK 8. Traffic sign: OK 9. Handicap sign: OK 10. Overhead directional: OK 11. Clearance sign: OK 12. Trucks sign: OK but I'm uncertain what this sign is supposed to do. Please explain. 13. Door graphics: OK 14. Window graphics: OK In the PUD language, under single tenant building, you could take out the extra allowance for logo sizes. We don't count against logo sizes in single tenant buildings. The 25% rule is only required for multi- tenant buildings. Just a thought it would make the language a little simpler. Also, I know we talked about this before, but the sizes chosen for the wall signs are less than what would be allowed by the sign ordinance. Each wall sign could be up to 60 sq. ft. The ground sign (per sign ordinance) could be 45 sq. ft. and 6' tall. I know that's less than what you've proposed but I just wanted to make sure you were aware of all the numbers. I think that's it. If you have any other questions, please let me know. Happy Holidays! Rachel P.S. Just so you know in advance, I will be out of the office all next week for Christmas.
