LEXINGTON DESIGN ADVISORY COMMITTEE <br />April 19, 2013 <br />To: Board of Appeals <br />Re: 482 Bedford Street, Lexington, MA <br />Sign application — Boston Children's at Lexington and Beth Israel Deaconess HeathCare Lexington <br />The DAC reviewed the proposed signage package dated March 22, 2013 and had the following comments. <br />Primary Entrance sign: <br />1. Because of the safety issues and nature of the facility the DAC approves of the new sign design, size and <br />location. <br />2. The DAC typically does not approve internally lit signs but agreed that the proposed halo lighting is an <br />acceptable solution for this application. <br />3. The DAC commented that the sign should only be illuminated during regular business hours as allowed by <br />the current sign bylaw. <br />4. The DAC encourages the applicant to provide supplemental signage to discourage illegal left turning into <br />the property. Reconfiguration of the driveway entrance geometry off Bedford Street would also help <br />prevent illegal turning. <br />Secondary Entrance Sign: <br />1. The DAC approves of the new sign design, size and location. <br />Building Entrance Sign: <br />1. The DAC approves of the new sign design, size and location. <br />Trailblazer sign: <br />1. The DAC approves of the new sign design, size and location. <br />The Design Advisory Committee recommends this project be approved. <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />Timothy D.
