The sign would need to be in the middle-third of the property, and could not be on the corner. Mr. Leib indicated that both the north and south side Norton signs would be removed and Goodyear put up.

The total sign area does not include the pole sign. Boardmember S�rahan pointed out the letters on the south side of the building have no visibility, and Mr. Leib responded that this was not a concern of Goodyear. � Boardmember Strahan then asked about the small area of landscaping and its dismal condition. Mr. Rennedy informed the Board that a letter will be sent out on March 8th to everyone that they have until March 8, 1995 to come into compliance with the new Landscaping Code. Boardmember Coben then initiated further discussion about the free-standing sign and his feeling that the Board could not approve anything without a plan to relocate said sign. Mr. Kennedy suggested they could approve it, subject to brinqing the free-standing sign into compliance, clarifying for Mr. Coben that a permit would not be issued until said sign is removed regardless of whether the Board approved the application or not. Boardmember Dalack again expressed her concerns about the color blue being used for the sign. Mr. Leib reiterated that � Goodyear is using their logo colors. Boardmember Coben was still anxious about the free-standing sign, whereby Mr. Leib said the sign does not represent Goodyear and assured the Board that the siqn would be relocated. Vice Chairman Strahan suggested that when the free-standing sign is relocated, that provisions be made to enlarqe size of landscaping area. Mr. Leib pointed out that that would not be practical due to the need for proper access of the cars getting in and out. Boardmember Coben moved to approve the application as submitted contingent on getting the free-standing into compliance. Boardmember Maitland seconded the motion.
