SUBJECT: Patagonia - proposal for a sign and to paint the building located at 108 College
Main in Northgate (99-427).
An NRB Review Subcommittee meeting was held on August 11, 1999, to review the above-
mentioned project. Mr. Hardin presented a portion of the actual sign they're proposing to put
on the building. He stated that the picture that was submitted earlier is not a true
representation of the size of the actual sign. He stated that the sign will be approximately six
feet long. It is made of foam board and will be primed and painted slightly darker than the
color of the building. He stated that the sign will be attached with poly seam seal. The sign
will also be illuminated with a light shining on it.
Some discussion took place regarding whether the sign would look good on a backboard with
star corners like some of the other signs in the district. The members concurred that this
particular sign, being in freeform writing, would look good placed on the building as
proposed.
NRB Member Abbott suggested using a lighter color for the building and a darker color for the
sign, so that it would show up a little better.
NRB Member Benning motioned to approve the sign, a light shining on the sign, and colors of
the building paint proposed, as long as it stays within the color palette presented at the
meeting. The motion was seconded by P&Z Commissioner Warren, and passed 6-0.

REVIEW SUBCOMMITTEE MEETING
June 16, 1999
TO: Dean Coffer, 3704 Stillmeadow, Bryan, TX, 77802
FROM: NRB Review Subcommittee:
Julius Gribou, NRB Chairman
Cheryl Anz, NRB Member
Elton Abbott, Jr., NRB Member
Richard Benning, NRB Member
Wayne Rife, P&Z Commissioner
Rick Floyd, P&Z Commissioner
Steve Parker, P&Z Commissioner
Staff Attending:
Natalie Ruiz, Development Coordinator

SUBJECT. Patagonia - proposal for a sign and to paint the building located at 108
College Main in Northgate (99-427).
An NRB Review Subcommittee meeting was held on June 16, 1999, to review the
above-mentioned item. There was no representative there for the project.
Commissioner Floyd was concerned about the sign not matching the Northgate decor.
NRB Member Gribou stated that he felt the logo was okay because the subcommittee
needs to allow them some freedom to express themselves when it relates to their
identity. He stated that they could be required to put the sign on a backboard with a
frame and stars on the corners, like others in Northgate.
NRB members Anz voiced her concern with some of the high tech businesses coming in
to that area that may not fit in.
After some discussion regarding the sign and building, the members decided to table it
until more information such as the colors, and the sign and letter height could be
Provided.
