The two wall signs will use the existing rails and the lettering will say Wine and Spirits. Mr. Ostrovsky feels that the entire name of the business appears too small on the wall signs. The Commission has no issues with just wine and spirits on the wall sign as long as Mr. Ostrovsky does not. The panel for the standing sign will have the entire name and conform to the standards for that sign. A temporary sign will be allowed only until the permanent signage is ready. The Commission voted 5-0 to issue a certificate of appropriateness for two wall signs and one panel sign.
