The oath was administered to Michael DiMichele, with Brilliant Electric Signs, and Joe DiMauro, the owner, who both came forward to review the request. Mr. Maloney questioned if they could explain their sign proposal. Mr. DiMichele indicated that they have a unique situation where there is a nonconforming sign which was there existing that he understands is allowed to stay. They have a dry-cleaners going into what was formerly a pizza place. There are blank faces in there now; it is not illuminated at this time. They would just like to put new faces in it. They would like to catch the traffic going by too. Mr. Maloney indicated that it could come down under the new ordinances because of the change of ownership, but you have an unusual situation here with parking and traffic. Mr. DiMichele indicated that he tried looking at putting a ground sign in there, but it was not feasibly possible with the location. Mr. Maloney called for a motion. J.
