Grove Court Free Standing Sign •
Mr. George Woock stated the sign is a metal background with the letters routed
out and beaked up with ivory plastic. The supports are 6" square columns.
The interior is illuminated with fluorescent tubes and a brown background.
Chairman Rosenfeld requested that the disconnect be put on the backside of
the pylon.
After much discussion Commissioner Hardt moved that they approve the Grove
Court Free Standing Pylon sign with the following stipulations:
1) total height and width and the various structural
dimensions be compatible with the existing Zimmerman
Hardware sign;
2) that the maximum height of the entire structure not
exceed 20 ft;
3) that the disconnect switch be located on the East
support facing North and painted out the same color
as the structure;
4) that the foundation be flush or below existing grade;
5) and that it be noted that this approval is only for
the Grove Court Sign itself and not for any additional
copy that may be included at a later date. Any additional
sign must come before this Commission prior to approval.
The motion was seconded by Commissioner Bentley and carried by unanimous
approval. .
After much discussion it was decided that they should come back in two
(2) weeks with a site plan showing the exact sign location and plantings.
The sign was "tabled until that time.
Grove Court Tenant Signs
Mr. Ray presented a drawing of the Grove Court Shopping Center showing
Tenant signs. They plan to use a can sign giving choice of script and
color.
The Commissioners as a whole do not like can signs. They definitely
wanted to limit the choice of colors, the type of print, the amount of
print and the elimination of any logos or caricatures. After a great
deal of discussion they decided to make a series of motions covering
various aspects of the Tenant Sign.
Commissioner Hardt moved that they approve the can sign concept mounted
on the facia with the materials as presented. Other signs to follow must
conform with the Martin do Marbry sign, since it is the first sign up.
The motion was seconded by Commissioner Bentley. Upon roll call vote,
the vote was:
AYES: Commissioners Bentley, Chinn, Hardt
NAYES: Chairman Rosenfeld APPEARANCE CONTROL COMMISSION
Motion carried. JUNE 23, 1977 PAGE-3
