Site Description and General Construction Plan The property is located at 100 Main Street. The parcel is currently zoned Local Commercial (LC). Parcels located along this section of Main Street are also zoned LC. Uses in the area include professional offices, restaurants, and small scale retail. The applicant has requested to install a new sign that will be attached to the arbor at the rear of the building as indicated in the photo below. The sign material will be Aluminum Composite Material (ACM). The color of the panel will be bronze and it will be 60” x 18.75”. The logo and company name will be matte white vinyl. The applicant is also requesting a directional sign of the same color and material to be installed on the side of the building at Academy Street. Please see images below. 4 Historic District Design Guidelines Review • Design Guidelines for New and Modified Signs o Establish objectives for signage o Limit impacts on character defining features o Find original sign locations on a building o Ensure sign compatibility with building and site o Consider impacts on the block o Create graphic interest • Sign Character o A new sign should be in character with the materials, colors, and details of the building. The integration of the sign with the building or building façade is important and should be a key factor in its design and installation. • Sign Installation o The installation of a sign is an integral aspect in the retention of key architectural features and in minimizing damage to the building. o Avoid damaging or obscuring architectural details or features when installing signs. o Minimize the number of anchor points in the wall when feasible. Staff Recommendation There is not an example within the historic district of installing a sign from an arbor. Perhaps the closest example of this style of installation would be a canopy sign. Canopy signs are used throughout the district. The simple style of both the letters and the graphics is encouraged by the district’s design guidelines. The color choice is consistent with and complements other colors on the building. The directional sign does not obstruct character-defining features of the building. The thickness of the sign is minimized and will be installed flush with the building. 5 6 7  SIGNAGE SPECIFICATIONS Side Profile A - Panel U - Channel 3/4" Material: ACM panel routed to shape 60" with face and returns painted standard color as defined by property manager 1" Thickness: 1/4" * Paint U-Channel to Match Sign 3/4" Letter Style: Per artwork Background Color: TBD Mounting Method: Mechanical to wood rafters.
