IMPERIAL PLAZA – ROAD SIGN – NEW HACKENSACK ROAD No one showed up for the meeting. AVON, 2696A WEST MAIN STREET Next on the agenda was the application of Karen Gardner to be able to use 2696A West Main Street for her Avon business and free lance writing and also for a sign. It was mentioned that she had painted the front door and that a color sample must be brought into the office – since the Board has already seen the door – and allow the Code Enforcement Officer to take a look at it to make sure it is conforming with the Architectural Review Board. Mr. Kolb made a motion to allow her to use the building for her Avon business and free lance writing business, seconded by Mr. McCormick. Unanimously carried. Next the sign was discussed – Ms. Gardner brought the actual sign to the meeting. It was light blue and she was instructed to bring a color sample of the sign for the files. It was stated that she would be allowed 7.2 sq. ft. of signage and that her sign was well below what was allowed. She also asked if she could put a temporary sign up in the window and she was informed that the Code Enforcement Officer would be able to help her with that. She stated there would be no lighting for her sign. Mr. McCormick made a motion to approve the sign, seconded by Mr. Moran contingent upon the following: (1) how will the sign be mounted, (2) a new application would have to be filled out which needs to include all dimensions, (3) owner's signature must be on application, (4) all color samples must be brought to the office, (5) hours of operation must be on file. Motion was unanimously carried. ROBERTS CONTRACTING, BANK PLAZA Next on the agenda was the application of Roberts Contracting to be able to use space in the Bank Plaza for their business and also for a sign.

His hours of operation would be Monday through Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Mr. McCormick made a motion to approve the use, seconded by Mr. Moran. Unanimously carried. Next the sign was discussed and reviewed. It was stated that the combined signage (building and road) was 5 sq. ft. over the allowable limit. Applicant would have to shrink his signage down to conform to code and this was have to be verified with the Code Enforcement Officer. It was stated that both signs would be internally illuminated and Mr. Morris asked for the wattage for both signs. The proposal called for a white background with black letters but it was suggested that the sign would be more legible if it was a black background with white letters.
