Minutes of July 12, 1982 A.S.A.C. (Continued) I ASAC-306
Location: The proposed location is fine.
Design: The Committee indicated that the sign needed additional bulk, given
its dimensions (12 ft. is very long for a 5 ft. high sign). In
addition, the "rustic" sign design'is inconsistent with the
building's contemporary style. The Committee suggested that the
applicant contact a professional signing firm.
The item was continued.

- Sign exception to permit three building mounted signs in lieu of the two signs
permitted by ordinance., The subject proper tty is located on the southeast corner
of Stevens Creek Boulevard and Portal Avenue.
Presentation: Bill Barbee (Arrow Sign Company) and Richard Holmes representing
Great Western Savings.
The applicant maintained that the 16 sq. ftl size sign requested was necessary
for visibility from Stevens Creek Boulevard. The A.S.A.C..felt visibility from
Stevens Creek Boulevard was not necessary fIor an automatic teller sign.
The applicant agreed to reduce the sign's size to 6 sq. ft. per a picture
presented at,the meeting. This still required an exception since a 6 sq. ft.
sign is not exempt per Section 4 of the Sign Ordinance.
The Committee recommended (4-0) approval ofl an exception to allow three building
mounted signs per A.S.A.0 Resolution No. 1022.
