At a meeting conducted on February 22, 2001, the Northampton Zoning Board of Appeals
unammousl y 3:0 to grant the request of Aquadro & Associates Insurance Agency, Inc.
for a under the provisions of Sections 7.3 & 7.6 of the Northampton Zoning
"00
Ordinance, to ye-existing non-t6 Urmmg sign by replacing the existing sign with
a s r si r property located at 355 Bridge Street.
Zoning Board Members present and voting were: Chair Mark NeJame, Sara Northrup and David
Narkewicz.
The Findings of the Board under Section 7.6 for a change in a pre-existing non-conforming
accessory sign were as follows:
1. The Board found that such change, extension or alteration would not be substantially
more detrimental to the neighborhood than the existing nonconforming sign because the
new sign, which is 35 sq ft, is a smaller size than the existing sign and, would not make
the sign any more nonconforming.
No conditions were imposed with this Finding.
