Planntng Commission Minutes April 27, 1987 Page two BRISTOL SPAS Presentation: Jeffrey S. Davis, Senior Planner Ktm Josephson, representing Carver Development gave a progress report on Tusttn Plaza. He also stated that Carver Development did approve the sign as orange. A discussion between the Commissioner, staff Mr. Josephson and Mr. Swidler ensued. Mr. Swidler, owner of Bristol Spas stated that he was aware of the color palette before installation but he installed the sign assuming that the Planning Commission would approve the color. He noted that all of the company's signs are orange. He was willing to comply with obtaining UL approval for the sign. The discussion continued establishing that the reason that orange wasn't on the color palette was because the Developer did not request orange. The main issue was color compatiblity with the architecture, the secondary issue being the type style of the letters not conforming to the Master Sign Plan. The fact that the sign was not UL approved was not an issue that the Commission could address. There was discussion regarding the inclusion of orange in the color palette of the Master Sign Plan. At which time Suzanne Atkins, Deputy City Attorney stated that an amendment to the Master Sign Plan could not be acted upon at that time as it had not been agendized or noticed 72 hours in advance. Staff recommmended that the matter be continued until the next meeting in order to further research all options.
