Cheryl made a motion to accept the application for signs as submitted with elevations shown and with the exception that the signs and letters be spaced evenly (not more than 2 inches apart) and that a drawing or rendering be submitted to Dick Evans, Build.ng Administrator, so that we know the letters are not spread out and if they are not in compliance and we feel they are spread out and don't comply, then we can ask that the signs be taken down and in the meantime they can go ahead and put their signs up. Tom seconded the motion. Approval was granted to put up the signs based on the condition that a drawing or rendering be turned into Dick showing the spacing and proper size and he approves it.

She requested approval to put up two (2) signs at the entrance of Sunridge Phase I & II. to help people know which phase is which, and also to help to identify the project. Requested two (2) signs each 32 square feet in size. First sign will be located across bridge to where you make the bend at West Beaver Creek Boulevard on the rise. Second sign for Phase II will be located before the bridge on the left side at the first driveway. Billaskedwhatwas going to be done to the back of the signs. Suggested that maybe some type of landscaping be done to help keep the back from looking so bail. Carole stated that the signs were going to be planted to help give them more stability. (approximately 8 inches in ground). Ken suggested not putting signs on berm, but in front of it. Terrill stated that a sit( plan should be presented to show where these signs will be located exactly. Ken stated that two (2) 32 square foot signs are too large, maybe have one (1) entrance sign that is two-sided stating "Phase I & II" then have two (2) smaller signs, one for phase I, and one for phase II. Design and color is nice. A two-sided sign is easier to recognize than a one-sided sign. Might consider lighting the sign. Carole ask the Board to table the issue until the August 5th meeting. It was agreed by all members to do so. Bill read getter regarding the annexation of Swift Gulch. No one knows what the letter was about.
