Representing the Petitioner'
Bruce Lee, Owner
Danny Sowers, Owner
The Applicant seeks approval for new signage. The site is located at 210 East Main Street. The
site is Zoned B 1 and is within the Old Town District and Sign Boundaries.
Lee' Let us just say this sign has been there for twenty-five (25) years. We replaced the
sign five (5) years ago when we moved in and now we are in violation. We are
willing to comply but cannot understand the violation.
Dutcher: Can the Department please give us a review?
Department: Compliance is the issue the Department recommends approval after all concerns
are addressed.
Dutcher' Let me ease your minds by saying you are not the only ones who have had to
come before us for a compliance violation. I think the bottom-line is that the
recommendation is to approve. Are there other questions from the Committee?
Ripma: Will this be a lighted sign?
Lee: No.
Westermeier: It meets all the requirements for Old Town.
Sowers' I am confused by this process. How many signs can we have?
Department: Per the Ordinance one (1) sign. Tenants must share your sign area equally without
changing the sign size.

Ripma:
A sign down below or on this same sign?
Same sign, the Ordinance states 50/50 for second tenant but you can go before the
BZA for a variance to adjust that.
Get approval now and then sort out the tenants later. Also, you have had this
ongoing unsatisfactory communication with the City? My recommendation is to
take note of names and what was said.
I motion to approve Docket No. 05010012 ADLS Amend: B and D Old Towne
Barbershop.

Mike McEvers, SIGN STYLE
The Applicant seeks approval for 3 new wall signs. The Applicant has filed Variances for sign
quantity and locations. The site is located at 11455 North Meridian. The site is zoned B-6 and is
within the US 31 Overlay.
Weiss' Today we sought and received approval from the BZA Hearing Officer to split
our signage area per the Ordinance, which allows two signs into three signs. In
your packet under Tab 1, there is a layout of the building showing sign exposures.
The first sign due west, the second sign with southwestern exposure catching
Meridian Street northbound traffic, and the third sign facing Pennsylvania Street.
Layout of the signage found on Tab 3, Tab 4 shows the signage for ABRAM'S
EYE CARE. The sign is forty (40) square feet with the southwest exposure. You
will find these signs esthetically constant with the area.
Department' We would like for the Petitioner to review the constancy of style and color.
Weiss' It is our goal to be constant but would like flexibility to change with tenant
changes.
Department' We recommend approval after all comments have been addressed.
Westermeier: Not the blue?
Weiss' Correct.
Ripma: What about lighting?
McEvers: Lighted Channel Letters
