1) This is a request for approval of a change in a building sign on the existing garage structure on Coward Mill Road east of Pellissippi Parkway.
2) The proposed building sign includes the business name for NG Detailing, which replaces the existing RNR sign. The sign will be located above the shorter garage doors.
3) The new sign will be a rectangular sign comprised of "Sign-A-Bond" which is a composite aluminum. The sign will matte finish and will not be lit. It will consist of 4 colors: black, white, gray, and red. Exceeding 3 colors on a sign is permissible if it portrays a unified theme for a multi-tenant development. In this case, the business will occupy the left half of the structure and the sign's black background matches the existing structure so the sign's background melds into the walls of the structure so that only the other 3 colors stand out.
4) The sign comprises an area of 20.33 square feet, which is within the limits allowed for this business based on the roughly 23 feet of building frontage which yields a maximum sign area of 23 square feet.
