READING SIGN REVIEW BOARD
A regular meeting of the Sign Review Board was called to order
at 7:30 P.M. on Thursday, April 21, 1994 in the Town Hall Berger
Room. Present were Board Members, Wayne MacLeod, Robert McIsaac,
Gerry Varney, Leslie McGonagle, Jeanne Bastoni. Also present were
Jonathan Edwards and Dick Howard of CPDC.
The minutes of the previous meeting were read and accepted on a
motion by Leslie McGonagle, seconded and so voted.
The installer of the sign described in the application of Susan
Tasker dated April 8, 1994 was present to answer questions. After
discussion, Robert McIsaac made a motion to approve the application,
seconded and so voted (four in favor, one opposed).
Jonathan Edwards outlined the duties and responsibilities of the
Sign Board. Discussion ensued regarding various items in the By-Law.
Jonathan indicated that any changes to the By-Law that the Sign
Board recommends must be submitted to him1subsequently tob"placed on
the Fall Town Warrant.
Mr. Edwards also indicated the following:
- Meetings must be posted 48 hours in advance (not including Sundays).
- When a new Building Inspector is appointed, he/she will attend
all Sign Board meetings.
- July 1, 1994 is the first date for "grandfathering" certain
non-conforming window signs.
Means to inform businesses about the "grandfathering" provision
was discussed and Mr. Edwards said that it would be taken care of.
Further discussion suggested that "Penalties and Enforcement" should
perhaps be added at the end of the Sign By-Law; however, it was
pointed out that "Enforcement" appears in the general Zoning By-Laws.
The next meeting will be held on May 19, 199 at 7:00 P.M.
On a motion, the meeting was adjourned at 9:20 P.M.
Respectfully submitted,
Jenne Bastoni, Secretary
