1. The business owner is making a minor change to the sign due to a recent change to the business name from "Hardin Valley Nutrition" to "Hardin Valley Suites.". The words "Hardin Valley" will remain as is, but the word "Nutrition" will be replaced with "Suites" and the face of the circular cabinet will be changed.
2. The building sign will remain above the awning in the same location on the front façade.
3. The business has a frontage of 20 ft., which will allow a building sign of up to 20 sq. ft. The proposed signage consists of a round logo and individually mounted channel letters that together comprise a total area of 12.49 sq ft.
4. All components (letters and logo) will be internally illuminated with cool white LED lighting. The letters will be covered with navy translucent vinyl, and the circle will be covered with printed translucent vinyl. The letters will have black trim caps and returns.
4. The building signage will be attached to the building on 6" raceways so that the letters are separated from the façade wall by 6". The raceways will be painted to closely match the building.
