BUILDING DEPARTMENT REQUESTS: <br />1) Ames Department Store (formerly Zayre's), 25999 Lorain Road <br />Proposal for exterior alteration to store front <br />Heard by Architectural Board of Review July 19, 1989. <br />Chairman Thomas pointed out that the Architectural Board had only suggested <br />that the facia above the window be painted white. He advised PZr. Taimuty, <br />the architect, that the Zayre's pole sign would have to be removed. Building <br />Commissioner Conway clarif ied that wheneyer they attempt to install the <br />Ames signs, all Zayre's signs would have to come down. Mr. Tamiuty explained <br />that even though Zayres is no longer in existence, they still own T. J..Maxx <br />and their sign is on the same pole. Mr. Conway responded that if they put <br />an Ames sign on the building, he would order any signage with the Zayre`s <br />name on it removed. Chairman Thomas advised that the only way they could <br />get any sign on a pole would be to apply to the Board of Zoning Appeals and <br />attempt to receive a variance, Mr. Bierman questioned if they would be <br />making any other improvements to the building or the property. Mr. Taimuty <br />stated that they were only adding the.canopy and the signs and painting the <br />facia, nothing else. M. Betts moved to approve the proposal for Ames <br />Department Store (formerly Zayre's), 25999 Lorain Road, as..submitted and <br />incorporating the recommendations of the Architectural Board of Review, <br />seconded by R.
