SUBJECT: Zapato's Cantina - proposed sign change for a new
restaurant in an existing building located at 211 University
Drive (previously Double Dave's Restaurant).
An NRB meeting was held on Wednesday, March 31, 1999 to review the
above-mentioned signage proposal. Rick Lemons stated that his original
request was to replace the existing plastic Double Dave's sign with the
same size sign only putting it in vertically, instead of horizontally. But
since turning in the application, he's decided to leave it horizontal. He
mentioned that he's painting the building tan, similar to the adjacent
building. Mr. Lemons stated that he would like the sign to stay
illuminated as it is now. The sign will be black and white.
Julius Gribou stated the illuminated signs are being discouraged in the
district, but he's has no objection to the sign being replaced.
Elton Abbott encouraged Mr. Lemons to attach the sign flush with the
building.

Mr. Lemons stated that if he put the sign flush against the building
above the awning, it would be difficult to see.
Sabine McCully stated that Mr. Lemons could place pedestrian signs on
the building below the awning.
Ron Kaiser motioned for the sign to be attached to the building and not
to exceed the roof line, with no internal illumination. The motion was
seconded by James Massey and passed 6-0.
