Case Reviews:
118 11th Street Application was presented by Robert Folk for Van Dykes. The

discussed the application. It was noted that the signage being requested was
already being used without the Board?s prior review/approval. The Board?s
discussion focused on the materials being used for the sign, the overall
size/height of the sign and the fact that the sign is internally lit. A motion
was made by Board Member Fred Greene to deny the application as presented based
on its noncompliance with the Design Guidelines for this type of signage.
Board Member Cherie Sanders seconded the motion. The motion passed.
