She questioned if the <br />existing white background should be counted as part of the proposed sign since it is not <br />being removed. Mr. Safina replied that as the white panel is not graphically Incorporated <br />Into the proposed sign, it probably should not be included in overall sign area. <br />Mr. Safina asked how the proposed sign will be mounted. Ms. Mercier referenced an email <br />exchange between the sign company and the building owner, which indicates that the <br />proposed sign will be mounted on top of the existing white background panel, and that <br />screws for both the panel and sign will be tightened. <br />Mr. Tuttle expressed concern of mounting the proposed sign onto the existing white panel. <br />Mr. Safina agreed with the concern, and asked about the depth of the proposed sign. Ms. <br />Mercier noted that the application indicates that the sign is essentially Flat. She noted that <br />the sign contractor assured the owner that the white panel would be secured before the sign <br />is mounted on it. She noted that the Building Inspector will review the installation details <br />before approving the sign permit. <br />Mr. Safina pointed out that the building has multiple tenants sharing one space because <br />there are no walls separating the Interior bays. Mr. Tuttle commented that the proposed <br />sign complies with the Sign Bylaw. <br />Page 1 1 <br />
