<br />LDAC <br />EXINGTON ESIGN DVISORY OMMITTEE <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />September 23, 2009 <br /> <br /> <br />To: Board of Appeals <br /> <br />Re: Crushed Grapes & More, Omni Food, 411 Walnut Street, Lexington, MA <br /> Temporary Sign Application <br /> <br />At its regular meeting on September 1, 2009, the DAC reviewed the proposed temporary sign <br />applications for Crushed Grapes & More, Omni Food, 411 Walnut Street, Lexington, MA. Generally, <br />the style and size of the signs look appropriate for their purpose. The DAC is concerned that there are <br />too many signs out at the same time at this location and that certain types of signs should be limited to <br />certain locations for specific periods of time. The DAC commented that signs advertising products, <br />specials and sales are not events and prefer they be limited to store windows or at the very least be <br />removed daily from exterior locations. Many of the advertisement banner and sandwich board type <br />signs have been seen out consistently, including overnight, appearing to be permanent. The DAC does <br />not object to signs announcing special events remaining for the length of the event but suggest allowing <br />only one banner and one sandwich sign per event be displayed at a time. <br /> <br />The Design Advisory Committee recommends this project be approved with the following comments. <br /> <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br />Timothy D. Lee, ASLA, Chairman <br />Lexington Design Advisory Committee <br /> <br />Cc: Board of Selectmen <br /> <br />
