•
Mr. Jacobson read the application as follows:
LARCHMONT CHRYSLER JEEP-2533 Boston Post Road
Block 614, Lot 231 -sign (adjourned 8/18/05-meeting cancelled)
Mr. Noya of Fredrick Geremia Architects explained the application.
After some discussion the Board had the following comments and concerns:
1. Not much had changed from the first submission. It appears that prior comments
regarding signage and concerns were not addressed.
2. The signs still showed they were to be internally illuminated; this would be in violation
of the Town Code.
3. The word Larchmont is out of place and does not fit in to the message the sign should
make. The signage looks very dispersed. The name of the company is not
communicated by the signage.
4. The rendering of the building does not accurately depict its colors.
5. There is not enough contrast between the two metallic finishes (i.e. -the coping and
the entry archway).
6. The sign color scheme needs to re-thought.
7. The red lettering for Dodge is totally out of place and does not appear to be part of
same signage concept.
8. The Board feels that the signage graphics need to be improved, significantly.
9. The Board asked that the architect return with two or three color schemes for the
• building facade materials.
