The applicant proposes <br />interior renovations and minor exterior changes including signage which the applicant requests that the <br />Board review for appropriateness. The applicant, Ms. Jacqueline Bento was present with her attorney, <br />Mr. Robert Peterson. <br />JP read the public notice. A draft decision had been prepared: <br />The Board concerned itself chiefly with the exterior changes of which there were few. The existing <br />awning would be removed. The applicant would place two wall signs one facing north on Haven St and <br />the second facing west towards the parking lot. The two signs would be the same two wall signs the <br />applicant used at her previous location with a slight change in the wording of each: "at One Haven" <br />would be changed to "on Haven". The second sign is allowed as per new by-law 6.2.6.4.a. <br />The applicant had proposed both signs be externally lit by downward-directed gooseneck lamps but <br />agreed to the Board's suggestion that the second sign (facing west) not be illuminated at all due to its <br />close proximity to the Haven Street sign, and existing street and parking-lot lights. <br />Page 1 of 4 <br />
