Guiddinq These guidelines are to assist the sign designer and compliment the mandatory ordinance standards. They are rntended to encourage a high level of design quality while also providmg flexibility to encourage creative design. * 1. Tbe sign design should be simple and easy to read. Use a brief message. The fewer the words, the more effective the sign. A simple sign with a bnef message is faster to read, looks cleaner, and is more effecuve. Usmg overiy mtncate type ftce* or mixmg typefaces on one sign also makes tt more difficult to read quickly and reduces the sign's ability to commumcate. • 2.

The background color for all signs should be white. * 4. The text should be m 3 colors only (too many colors compete with content for the viewers attention). Fluorescent or Day-<31o colors are not acceptable. • 5. If a umque business logo is proposed, it's cotor shall not count as one of the three text colors. (Ttem 4 above). * 6. Changeable text areas should comply with the above criteria (l-S) and should occupy no more than 50% of the sign face. Paper or non-rigid changeable areas are not acceptable.
