Recommendation

No objection to issuance of permit for proposed landscaping and site work for the Davis Performing Arts Center, including handicapped access ramp, entrance terrace and two free-standing stone signs reading 'Davis Center'. No objection to general concept for a sign band over entrances reading 'Gonda Theater', and recommend further study of a material for the panel to be compatible with entrances, as stone was not appropriate in these locations. Recommend further study for more color differentiation of the two brick samples. See previous Recommendation (OG 03-145). Note is made that permit application is pending final zoning review. Any modifications to the approved design as a result of further review in the permit process must be submitted to the Commission for approval.
