NEW BUSINESS <br />1. Victoria Plaza: 26101 Countrv Club Blvd. (WRD # 4 <br />Ms. Wenger reported that the Board of Zoning Appeals had requested the input of the <br />Planning and Design Commission. Ms. Wenger advised that they make recommendations to <br />the BZA but that approval of the sign was not required. Mr. Conway stated that BZA was <br />struggling with the application of the code as written, so they felt the Planning and Design <br />Commission would have the expertise regarding what is appropriate for the structure. It is <br />close to residential property and the brightness of the sign is questionable. Mr. O'Malley <br />said the Planning and Design Commission has a different, less restrictive standard of review <br />for signage and variances. <br />Mr. Petro stated that they would like to have signage similar to the Westbury. The height <br />and area of the sign is as small as the company would propose for visibility. Illumination <br />would be comparable to the Westbury and would be an aqua green color. Mr. Petryshin <br />stated that at the logo it is 14 feet high. It has been placed on the east side of the building. It <br />is not facing the front or the highway or residential area. He confirmed that the ellipse <br />around the letters is a necessary component in the logo. <br />Mr. Lasko asked for clarification on the sign placement. Mr. Petro submitted additional <br />photos for the record, to demonstrate where the sign will be seen. Mr. Rerko questioned the <br />color of the sign. Outside of the sign is manor green, the inside of the sign is aqua green.
