CALL TO ORDER:



Meeting was called to order by John Lester, Chair. A quorum was not present.

The Minutes of the May 19, 2008 Meeting were approved as presented.



Case Reviews:



1234 Broadway Application was presented by Jay O?Neal for Hookahmeup. The

request was for the installation of a primary sign and a neon ?open? sign. The

Board reviewed and discussed the application. It was noted that the signage

being requested had already been installed without the Board?s prior

review/approval. A motion was made by Board Member David Serrato to approve

the application as presented. Board Member Garry Pound seconded the motion.

The motion passed.







Old/New Business



The Board reviewed and discussed the status of the applications approved at the

January 2008 Meeting for compliance with the Board?s ruling.



The applicant for the property located at 908 2nd Avenue (March 2008) had

requested the Board?s directive on the material selection for shutters for the

property. The Board agreed that vinyl shutters would be acceptable as long as

the shutters were the correct dimensions for the windows and were painted the

previously approved colors.



The Board discussed the ongoing issues with the implementation of the Caf?

Ordinance. The primary concern was the type/style of stanchions being used to

designate the seating areas. The Board agreed that some type of uniform or

standard stanchions would be the best solution to the issue. Board Member

David Wolf will bring to the July Meeting a concept he has for a style of

stanchion suited for the Fa?ade District.





Adjourn:



There being no further business the meeting was adjourned.
