Hi Marty,
Sorry for the delay on this.
Measurement of the wall sign that was existing that we would like to reuse the location is 3’ x 17’
The yard sign is 60” x 35”
Please see attached pictures. Please let me know if you need exact pictures of the renderings. They are
being designed as we speak. Basically they will be black signs with gold or white lettering that will say
Aruzza’s Automotive with a logo.
Thank you so much for your help!

Hi Marty,
I did some remeasuring. I guess it actually helps to actually measure instead of eyeball things. The sign is
22.5 Feet from the edge of the pavement so it is close. Once the sign gets made I can move it the 2.5 feet.
Let me know if this needs to be done before approval. I may get new posts for it anyway so the old posts
need to be removed. I would like to do this once the sign is made so I can visualize how it will be
mounted.
Thanks!

Hi Chris,
Perfect, thanks for updating the application form!
Unfortunately, like I mentioned earlier, our regulations require that we confirm that all free-standing signs are at
least 5 feet from property lines. Your response that the sign is roughly 5 feet from the road does not quite satisfy
this requirement of the regulations.
The screenshot below shows what appears to be an existing sign that is approximately 3 feet from the edge of
the property line, since the Dorset Street right-of-way extends beyond the edge of the pavement. According to
our online map, the distance from the edge of pavement to your property line is approximately 20 feet from the
edge of pavement and exactly 33 feet from the existing center line of the road. As a result, in order to be
approvable, your sign will have to be at least 38 feet from the center line of Dorset Street and approximately 25
feet from the edge of the pavement there. If the existing sign location is not far enough away from the road, you
will have to relocate it to come into compliance with this regulation. However, if you can demonstrate that the
existing sign is far enough away, then you can install your new sign in that same exact spot.
