Mr. Leib presented a sample of the blue plastic lettering which was proposed to be on a white aluminum background. Since the actual , plantings planned for the base of the sign were not known, Ms .

Randy Hansen stated that he represented the. petitioner and that Mr. Robinson was present at the meeting. Mr. Hansen explained that parking space was very tight, and the configuration of the applicant' s property and the fact that it contained a shared driveway with the adjacent property owner, Almont Villas, had resulted in the following waiver requests: 1 .
