Welch, Chairman MEMORANDUM TO: Joe Welch, Chairman, Historic District Commission, Members of Historic District Commission CC: Jerry Michelson, Chair, Center Committee Dawn McKenna, Chair, Tourism Committee FROM: Susan Yanofsky, Economic Development Director DATE: May 5, 2011 SUBJECT: Application for Signage for Center Parking Booth Attached is a drawing and rendering of the two signs for the Depot Square parking booth we are respectfully requesting a Certificate of Appropriateness. The sign height, font (times new roman) and materials are contained on the attached page. I restfully request the granting of the Certificate of Appropriateness for the following reasons. The signs are necessary on the booth to identify the parking entrance and facility for our many visitors. The signs are in scale with the booth building, and the area. They are architecturally respectful and yet visible to approaching vehicles. The sign graphic presented is an internationally recognized symbol and therefore visitors can quickly comprehend the message. The additional "Welcome..." information sign relates to the nearby street graphics already present in the Center. Moreover, the sign placements, font, and colors are detectable and recognizable to drivers without a loss of eye contact with the road. Thank you for your attention and consideration.
