C.O.A. # 25-11

STAFF REVIEW: John Sterrett, City Planner             SIGNATURE__________________________

ITEM SUMMARY:

Iris Hair Salon located at 117 Main Street in the Turner Junction Historic District is requesting approval
of a Certificate of Appropriateness to install vinyl window signage in the two 2 storefront windows.
One window will have the phone number (1.2 square feet in area) and the other window will have the
business logo (6.2 square feet in area). The windows are each 21.9 square feet in area. The appli-
cant is also proposing a sheet metal nail polish bottle wall sign (8 square feet in area) that will be at-
tached to the building through the mortar joints and not into the bricks themselves.  Please see the
attached rendering for further details.

The collective window area for this tenant space is 43.8 square feet. The square footage of the pro-
posed window signs is 7.4 square feet. The Commission's policy is to allow a maximum of 20% of the
total window space to be covered, which in this case is 8.8 square feet. The City's Sign Code also
considers window signage as wall signage and in this case the maximum allowed wall and window
signage combined is 30 square feet. The applicant is proposing 15.4 total square feet of combined
wall and window signage.

The applicant originally received COA approval from the HPC for the proposed signs in 2015. The
work, however, was never performed and therefore that approval is null and void. The applicant is
thus returning to the Commission for a new review.

The two-story building was constructed in 1896 in a Victorian style, but the façade was later altered to
an all brick Federal Revival style giving the building its present day appearance. The building is a
contributing structure to the Turner Junction Historic District but is not considered a candidate for local
landmark status.
ACTION PROPOSED:

Consideration of new window and wall signs at 117 Main Street.
