Owner — Bumper to <br />Bumper clarified that each logo is 3x24 and reviewed the proposed signage with the <br />Commission. <br />Commissioner Hanson asked for clarification of the total length of the frontage. Owner -Bumper <br />to Bumper clarified that the frontage is 40 -feet. <br />Chair Melsha suggested that they formulate the amendment with their feedback in mind come <br />back for a review with the Commission. <br />Commissioner Hanson suggested that they consider yellow letters and reconsider the logo. He <br />stated that they should only allow one logo and that they should only go 60% of the frontage, <br />which would be 24 -feet. <br />Commissioner Stromgren asked if the current language prohibits sign boxes. Mr. Crockrow <br />stated that the original language does not allow for anything other than lettering. He stated that <br />they are willing to the limit the lettering and reviewed with the Commission. <br />Commissioner Tillman asked if this type of issue is common in other shopping centers. Mr. <br />Crockrow stated that he is not aware of other centers that have such restrictive language, He <br />stated that the center is a bit dated as far as signage and reviewed with the Commission. He <br />stated that he has reviewed signage at other centers noting that many allow backlit letters in a <br />variety of colors that also include logos. He explained that what they want is for each sign to <br />visible and stand out to that it becomes more recognizable. <br />Commissioner Tillman stated that she drove past the Quarry and noticed that each store had their <br />own sign, noting that it looks fine. She clarified that the important issue is that the signs tie <br />together yet allow recognition. She suggested that they try to find another way to determine a <br />unified look that is not based on the lettering. <br />Mr. Crockrow agreed stating that they are separated enough so that the different colors and logos <br />would be much more compatible. <br />Chair Melsha stated that' he would prefer not to negotiate significant amendments at this time <br />and suggested that they come back with an amended, restated sign plan for further review. He <br />asked if this would be reasonable for the tenants. <br />Mr. Crockrow explained that Subway wants to get started adding that Subway is scheduled to <br />meet with the City Council next week. He stated that they should add a few words to the draft to <br />clarify the signage noting that everything they have is in the agreement. He explained that they <br />need assistance from the Commission in clarifying what they could take to Council next week. <br />Commissioner Tillman expressed concerns stating that she does not think it would pass as it is <br />stated right now. Vice Chair Stille agreed stating that this is where the discussion should take <br />place regarding modification to the signage plan. <br />A. <br />
