City of Northampton ., ' . Massachusetts t DEPARTMENT OF BUILDING INSPECTIONS ift ug `�� 212 Main Street • Municipal Building � Northampton, MA 01060 Keith Brick Design 9 East Main Street Williamsburg, MA 01096 24C -127 September 20, 2012 Dear Mr. Brick, I have reviewed the sign permits you submitted for Northampton Vision Specialists on Center Street in Northampton. I have approved three of the applications; both of the wall signs and replacement of the existing ground sign. The city's zoning ordinance for directional signs states: D. The limitations as to the number of signs permitted does not apply to traffic or directional signs which are necessary for the safety and direction of residents, employees, customers and visitors (whether in a vehicle or on foot) of the business, industry, or residence. Such signs may carry the name of the business or project, provided that said name is: (1) Clearly secondary in nature to the primary directional function of the sign. (2) No greater than 1/2 the size of the directional message. (3) May not exceed a maximum size of six square feet. (4) May not be any higher (top of sign) than four feet from the ground. (5) Shall be limited to one such directional sign per curb cut. (6) If lighted, be illuminated internally or by indirect method with white light only and shall be in conformance with § 350 -12.2. The business name on the directional ground sign, as presented, exceeds 50% of the area of the sign. It could be allowed without a special permit from the Zoning Board of Appeals. If you submit a new design for the directional sign that meets the zoning regulations, I would approve the permit. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
