The oath was administered to Mr. Stemmer who advised that after he requested the permit in March, he thought it was approved so he started the construction, later he was told that it was not approved because it looked like a shed. Building Commissioner Conway advised that originally this was submitted to Planning Conmission; and the Architectural Review Board as a minor change, they refused it because they were concerned that, it would look like a shed. At that time Mr. Stemmer was informed that he would have to go to Planning Commission with his plans. He then completed the addition prior to being heard by the Cormaission.

Mr. Gomersall clarified that they were requesting a temporary sign for a 4 to 6 month period.
