posal since it was already in existence.

in violation of the sign code.

noted on the site development plan .

sign base in that it weathers rapidly .

sign should be incorporated into the same structure.
McMonagle stated that he could not recommend approval
without the applicant being able to present how this
sign relates to the existing Sambo ' s sign .

based on conflicts with the existing Sambo ' s sign
and poor maintenance characteristics of the pylon.
