A variance has been awarded for that. The wall will be landscaped with Oleander and Wax Myrtle. There will be a 12" round cut-out between each parking space where a small shrub will be planted.

Deputy Building Official, Steve Kennedy, read the letter the Building Department sent to Mr. Nelson regarding uniform signage at Fashion Mall. Mr -Nelson submitted an application to amend the uniform signage agreement and make legal the signage which already exists at Fashion Mall. Mr. Kennedy stated the Building Department had also received a letter from Carpet Kingdom which stated that the ivory paint that was used in doing their sign was in direct compliance with the specifications of the Uniform Signage Agreement for Fashion Mall, even though it appears to be a different shade of ivory. The Board felt it was not a significant problem. Chairwoman Cook stated she would like to discuss with Mr. Nelson the landscaping at Fashion Mall, asking him to maintain the hedge a little better than it is presently maintained.

Mr. Kennedy stated the Building Department would address that issue. Mr. Coben urged Mr. Kennedy to also check some of the local stores which have illegal signage on the outside of their store windows. Paul Coben moved to accept Ed Nelson's application to amend the current uniform signage at Fashion Mall, with some aggressive attention paid to the landscaping, specifically the hedge. Ruth Maitland seconded the motion. The vote on the motion was: Ruth Maitland - for Victor Strahan - for Paul Coben - for the motion therefore passed and was adopted. V. UNFINISHED BUSINESS There was no unfinished business. VI. ANY OTHER MATTERS A) Gallery Square Shopping Center Landscaping Chairwoman Cook asked what would be involved in replacing trees killed by the last freeze at the Gallery Square Shopping Center. It was explained that there were multiple owners at that center, one absentee owner (Mrs. McKay of McKay Trust). It was further explained that Dottie Campbell had been trying to motivate the owners to upgrade the landscaping there, but has had no response. Mr. Kennedy explained the new Landscape Ordinance No. 377, which has a five-year amortization feature, which obligates the Village, on a yearly basis, to notify all properties in non-conformance that they must bring their properties into conformance. Chairwoman Cook stated she would not be willing to wait five years to see the landscaping corrected at the Gallery Square center. She suggested the Building Department write a letter to the owners informing the■ that the landscaping there which died as a result of the last freeze needs to be replaced, at the request of the Community Appearance Board.
