the previous tenant on the east elevation of the building. This sign
has since been removed. (SIGN11-0009).
November 9, 2023: Approved (7-0), subject to the Staff Report
dated November 3rd, 2023.
STAFF COMMENTS: City Council approval of the request does not eliminate the
requirement for a sign application submittal prior to sign installation.
