The circumstances and <br />communication surrounding the length of time that it was to <br />be rented and the urgency of the pick up date are unfortunate. <br />Please find attached a copy of the original rental agreement. <br />It called for a 10 day rental. After that time I personally called to <br />verify the pick up of the sign. I was informed to leave it "as long <br />as possible ". Little did we, Dollar Signs, know that they meant as <br />long as the new sign code would permit The nature of the tem- <br />porary sign industry fluctuates quickly with so many individual <br />municipalities. Keeping current on the changes is a priority for <br />us but as our rental agreement states, the ultimate responsibility <br />for securing permission rests on the renter. <br />Unbeknown to our sign shop, a change in Little Canada's sign <br />code the previous month mandated that they secure the removal <br />of the sign with a $200 deposit which would be withheld after <br />30 days of use of the sign. Our shop was not informed of the <br />need for removal of the sign before 31 days. As a result, JR'S <br />POWERHOUSE GYM lost their deposit <br />As a small business myself, I understand the value of $200. As <br />an image development designer I also understand the importance <br />of appearances and compliance with codes. I am sure that JR'S <br />POWERHOUSE GYM feels the same way. <br />Thanks is extended in advancd for the council's sympathetic recon- <br />sideration for my client considering the newness of the code enforce- <br />ment and the miscommunications surrounding this event. Reimbursement <br />of the deposit would be greatly appreciated. <br />Very Sincerely, <br />Curtis <br />Owner of Dollar Signs <br />6 <br />iE <br />
