Three banners and signs for Morso Express - existing
Review Type
Permit

Recommendation

The Commission regrets that banners were installed prior to review or permit. Recommend AGAINST issuance of permit for existing banners reading 'Morso' and 'Morso Express' and for existing light fixtures with exposed electric conduit on face of walls, all of which must be removed no later than 31 December 2010. Note: additional green banners on this building were installed prior to review or permit, were not approved and must be removed no later than 31 December 2010. Recommend a coordinated effort from the building owner and tenants to design a sign scheme appropriate to the historic district, i.e. pin-mounted letters mounted to wall above shop windows. File a concept application of alternate sign scheme for review by the Commission.
