He continued that Sandman Signs does all their signs and does very <br /> nice work. The reverse hallowed light is more expensive, but will look nice on this building. <br /> Commissioner Field questioned how the applicant came up with the logo size. <br /> Mr. Kuker stated that it is the sign code that the VA internally adopted. <br /> Commissioner Field stated this deviates significantly from what has been approved in the past <br /> and the Commission needs to provide a factual basis to justify such an expansion. He continued <br /> that he agrees with what was suggested before regarding the clientele, the patients need to <br /> visually spot it, also the VA has recommendations for their logo with regard to spacing and <br /> lettering size. <br /> Motion by Commissioner Dunaway, seconded by Commissioner Field, to close the public <br /> hearing. <br /> Planning Commission /September 8, 2011 <br /> Page 4 of 6 <br />
