Oak Park Heights, MN 55082 Re: Pylon Sign Dear Dr. Wolff: This past October I spoke with Beth of your office regarding the fire to your pylon sign. On the 25 of October I advised her that the sign may be wrapped with a banner until such time the sign face was replaced, assuming that it would not be a prolonged period of time. At that time I also mentioned to her that local ordinance requirements apply to any sign alteration, particularly that the background of the new sign face may not be white in color unless it is completely opaque and does not permit any illumination through the face when it is on. I did provide her with the basic information as to sign permit and contractor licensing requirements. Please note that if Wallace Chiropractic is no longer maintaining an office in the building, that their sign should be removed and replaced with a blank, non -white sign panel if you plan to have a secondary tenant on the sign. At this time, it has been nearly four months since the fire occurred and the sign is still wrapped by a banner. The sign is to must be repaired or removed in the very near future but no later than May 1 2008. Prior to any sign alteration, the City needs to receive a permit application, two sets of colored drawings that include the sign face size and other specifications and the work must be performed by a licensed sign installer. For your convenience, I have enclosed a copy of the sign ordinance, a permit application and a contractor license application. No work to the sign face or removal of the sign is to occur without a permit having been issued by our Building Department. I appreciate your prompt attention to this request and ask that you contact me immediately with any questions you may have. • er ly,, 44102 - ;�x' e C --�^ I t) cv-l6-' ` ') wa Ju • Hultman � ' .�` Qtr, P ning & Code Enforcement Officer � �, -t)0 Enclosures aD u- pc: Eric Johnson, City Administrator Jim Butler, Building Official Property File Tree City U.S.A.
