Curtin -3- Nickerson: The location, -of the standing sign is shown on the plot plan. It is the usual type of standing sign with a disc and "flying ' A" that extends across the front of the circle. (Reading plan of sign submitted by Mr. Stevens) and this is the plan which shows the complete design of it. 8 ft. in diameter - overall 14 ft. plus 8 ft. and 2 standards set up on concrete beds. The curb only sticks up 6". It doestiC't'bverhang the state highway. A stationary sign. It is dual faced and has a number'of fluorescent tubes inside plastic. It is red and the wings are white. The only part that shows is the white part. This is white lettering on a red background. It is not rotating -- non - flashing, non -rotating. Did I understand each tube has 800 watts? Harrison: No. I meant 800 milliamps - 8/10 of the amphere for the tube -- 800 milliamp type tube -- 3200 milliamps total. According to the light patterns I use this fixture is going to give a general illu- mination of about 40 ft. in diameter -- the outside will be four and underneath the fixture, and 13 ft. from the fixture will -be 28 which we feel is plenty. (Here Mr. Abbott gave an explanation of the technical meaning of the light terms.) Nickerson: The reason we ask the question is because if the permit is issued we will tie it down to the answer, so if we give permission for 800 milliamps for four tubes it may be insufficient. Harrison: Usually we have one of these lights at every corner but at this location there is enough street lighting so we don't need one at the other corner and of course we need one down at the other end be- cause there is not quite as much light. Wadsworth: I am confused about this. Is this going to be a drive- way? (pointing to map) Harrison: This strip you are referring to is 20 ft. wide on the east- erly side of the property allotted to the filling station. This is kept open and available and can be used as an adjoining strip - it is not going to be built upon. Will be available for common use so it could be used for access. The company cannot put anyth*gon it. Have to keep it open. No construction or parking cars. It will be used as access to. the inspection bay at the rear of the building. It is a more convenient access. Nickerson: There is no question of parking - obviously theme -is plenty of space on the lot. I am referring to the parcel being leased to the Tidewater Oil Co. - 16,350 sq.ft. Stevens: There is not going to be any particular need for parking - there will be no parking operation there. This is all for the opera- tion of a filling station. Nickerson: Does anybody wish to speak in favor? In opposition? Corydon Wyman, 411 Marrett Rd. A number of years ago we went over a gas station change with Mr. Curtin and possible removal of the gas station to across the street at which time it was turned down or with-
