Sign content will be for Miller products. Staff recommends denial of both a painted sign and a removable sign. Staff finds that the sign is not compatible with the character of the neighborhood and does not advertise a local business or product. Even if approved, a variance would be required by the Board of Zoning Appeals. If the board does approve it, staff would recommend approval of the removable sign. Peter Wallace - Capital Outdoor Sal Safina - building owner Mr. Wallace said his company puts up similar signs across the country and the sign is being proposed due to the new entertainment district. Mr. Williams wouldn't support advertising for a third party and this is basically a billboard. Mr. WIlliams moved to deny, seconded by Mr. Jarosz. There were no objections.	Pass	6:0
