Historic Preservation Commission Meeting
Transcript
| Well, shoot, now it's hard to even control the kids because it's right. | 00:00:00 | |
| Yeah. | 00:00:06 | |
| I think we're going to be ready here and whenever, whenever they're ready, we'll be ready. | 00:00:08 | |
| There she comes, right? | 00:00:13 | |
| All righty, let us let us know when you are up. | 00:00:16 | |
| And we'll kick it. | 00:00:20 | |
| We are good to go. | 00:00:26 | |
| Already. | 00:00:28 | |
| All right. | 00:00:30 | |
| Good evening. Welcome to the 24 June 2025 Historic Preservation Council meeting. | 00:00:33 | |
| But we make sure our mice are on. | 00:00:38 | |
| And then we're going to do a roll call. | 00:00:40 | |
| Kelly Knapp, Melvin Taylor, Julia McCullough, Scott. Two Boys. | 00:00:43 | |
| All right, looks like we have a quorum with with the total of 4. | 00:00:47 | |
| And so. | 00:00:51 | |
| I just wanted to start with, are there any initial comments from the city? | 00:00:54 | |
| Nope. All right. | 00:00:58 | |
| So we'll move. We'll need to approve the minutes from the 27th May meeting. | 00:01:00 | |
| We received in the e-mail packet. | 00:01:05 | |
| Does anybody have any questions on them or? | 00:01:07 | |
| Do we have a motion? | 00:01:09 | |
| I'll make a motion to approve the minutes from last month. | 00:01:11 | |
| All in favor say aye. Oh, I'm sorry a second. I apologize. | 00:01:14 | |
| 2nd. | 00:01:18 | |
| See, that's what you make mistakes. All in favor say aye aye. | 00:01:19 | |
| All right. We have a unanimous vote on that. | 00:01:24 | |
| OK, so. | 00:01:27 | |
| All business. So we have a certificate of appropriateness for the purple door. | 00:01:29 | |
| At 100 Osborne St. | 00:01:34 | |
| And so we'll start with the city. Does the city have anything? | 00:01:36 | |
| OK. At the previous meeting, the Commission continued the application for the purple door signage. | 00:01:41 | |
| Requesting the following revisions. A softer white color for the base. | 00:01:49 | |
| A revised font and a design that is more consistent with adjacent commercial signage and a correction of the apostrophe in Saint | 00:01:54 | |
| Mary's, Georgia. | 00:01:58 | |
| The applicant has submitted 3 revised design options that address those concerns and comply. | 00:02:03 | |
| With section 62123 of the Historic Signage Regulations. | 00:02:09 | |
| Staff supports approval of either option or any of the three options and recommends that the Commission and the applicant discuss | 00:02:14 | |
| and select the preferred design. | 00:02:18 | |
| All right, with that said, man, would you like to come up and state your name and your address? | 00:02:22 | |
| It should only take about 30 minutes. I'm joking around. Tracy O'Brien, 100 Osborne St. And yeah, there's three actions to pick | 00:02:28 | |
| from an enlightened. | 00:02:33 | |
| So the color on it. | 00:02:38 | |
| Is you can't really tell on there, but it's like a lighter yellow, so. | 00:02:40 | |
| On there it's a little bright, but it's a little lighter yellow. But there's three different ones. And I fixed my little Saint | 00:02:45 | |
| Mary's for you. | 00:02:48 | |
| So this is the first. | 00:02:53 | |
| Second one. | 00:02:56 | |
| And. | 00:02:59 | |
| Third one. | 00:03:03 | |
| I can. | 00:03:06 | |
| Go back to any of them. | 00:03:08 | |
| They're very minor. Just run through them one more time. Let us look at them. | 00:03:11 | |
| Option one. | 00:03:16 | |
| I think the second one. | 00:03:18 | |
| I like the first one, but I think the second one has more of. | 00:03:20 | |
| The font that's closer to market on. | 00:03:24 | |
| The square, Yeah. Which one do you like the best? | 00:03:27 | |
| I kind of like the first. | 00:03:31 | |
| But I'm between the 1st and the second. I'm not, it doesn't matter. | 00:03:34 | |
| What do y'all think? | 00:03:41 | |
| I love the first one. | 00:03:43 | |
| I think it's pretty. | 00:03:45 | |
| Do you currently have plans on? | 00:03:47 | |
| Leaving that space in October, is that what you said at the last meeting? I'm up in the air. I would like. So I talked to is it | 00:03:49 | |
| take? Is that how you say it take? | 00:03:53 | |
| He told me to ask you guys if you knew of anybody who had a rental spot. | 00:03:58 | |
| Like on ground level, on the ground. | 00:04:03 | |
| And he said maybe somebody here would know. | 00:04:06 | |
| So. | 00:04:08 | |
| I don't know. I mean, I'm just on if I stay past October and do another year, that's fine if I find something. | 00:04:11 | |
| On street level, I'm better. It's better for me as a business, but. | 00:04:19 | |
| So. So I guess that witty. | 00:04:25 | |
| I mean. | 00:04:27 | |
| I guess one option would be like. | 00:04:29 | |
| Does she wait to put the sign up until after? | 00:04:30 | |
| That timeframe or is that something that we? | 00:04:33 | |
| I mean, it doesn't matter, it'll be moving. | 00:04:36 | |
| I can, if I take it, if I get another spot, I can always move it, you know what I mean? It'll be, it'll be movable. | 00:04:38 | |
| So I think we should make a decision and just let her go ahead and have the sign constructed and installed. | 00:04:44 | |
| OK. | 00:04:51 | |
| I just have a question. | 00:04:52 | |
| Is there a reason it's not like would like the market on the square one? To me it seems like it would be more cohesive that they | 00:04:54 | |
| were both similar well. | 00:05:00 | |
| So I don't really want to put a heavy sign up there with the wind and. | 00:05:05 | |
| I feel like it would be dangerous to have a heavy sign like that. The sign that I'm gonna put up there is gonna be aluminum. | 00:05:10 | |
| I can put wood around it. | 00:05:17 | |
| Or could we just have it tan instead of white? You know, so it is So what I was telling them before you got here. It is if you | 00:05:19 | |
| scroll up. | 00:05:22 | |
| It is like a lighter yellow, kind of like Market on the Square. | 00:05:26 | |
| You can see see that's white. | 00:05:29 | |
| And this one is still. It's a little bright, but the ones below it. | 00:05:32 | |
| They're the same color, but it's like a lighter, almost like a lighter yellow color. | 00:05:36 | |
| OK, it looks white to me, but can you scroll up to the next one? | 00:05:42 | |
| No the other way. | 00:05:46 | |
| Yeah, see. | 00:05:49 | |
| OK. Yeah, yeah. So it'll be more like that color. | 00:05:50 | |
| Yeah, that would be more cohesive. | 00:05:54 | |
| Yeah, because it kind of matches more of like their. | 00:05:57 | |
| Fighting, yeah. So that other one is the same. It's just the way it's. | 00:06:02 | |
| Because that one is from the screen and then the other one is a photo. | 00:06:07 | |
| OK. | 00:06:10 | |
| But I mean, wood would be great, but it would be very expensive and it would be very heavy and it's hanging on. | 00:06:12 | |
| Just that banister. So I don't think that's probably the smartest. | 00:06:19 | |
| Things in my opinion, but. | 00:06:23 | |
| I was just more concerned with the coloring. Oh, OK. Yeah, it's gonna be that color. It'll be that like lighter yellow. | 00:06:25 | |
| Any more questions? | 00:06:34 | |
| All right, and which one did we? | 00:06:36 | |
| Made the final decision or did you make the final decision? I'm between the 1st and the second. It doesn't matter to me. Does it | 00:06:39 | |
| matter at all? | 00:06:42 | |
| OK. | 00:06:46 | |
| Yeah, it's just that. | 00:06:49 | |
| Interpretation. | 00:06:50 | |
| All right. | 00:06:53 | |
| Whichever 1 you like. | 00:06:55 | |
| Oh jeez. OK, you pick one and. | 00:06:57 | |
| We'll vote on it, Yeah, let's go with. | 00:07:01 | |
| Can I see the other one? | 00:07:04 | |
| That one I feel like the wording is a little small. | 00:07:10 | |
| Yeah, the other one has bigger wording with Yeah, you know, I actually like that one a lot, but. | 00:07:13 | |
| Yeah, the wording is. The wording is. | 00:07:18 | |
| Yeah, that one may be a little more. | 00:07:22 | |
| Catch your eye. | 00:07:27 | |
| Like clear the purple door part. | 00:07:28 | |
| You could do that with the top one if you just put a border around it the same color and thicken the top and fine. | 00:07:32 | |
| I don't know, you guys. Pick one. I don't care. It doesn't matter. You have the professional sitting right. Which one she works | 00:07:39 | |
| for, Dalton signs. | 00:07:42 | |
| The purple door, but you want that part to be unique because that's the name of your business. But but order around your font. | 00:07:47 | |
| That's very thin to make it better. | 00:07:51 | |
| No, that's your girl. But then I got to change and have another meeting. | 00:07:56 | |
| I could have another meeting. | 00:08:05 | |
| If I change it again, right? She just changed it, yeah. | 00:08:08 | |
| You're not making any changes, you're just changing. OK, say it again. What do you want me to do? What did you say? | 00:08:12 | |
| Do make it what? A border? | 00:08:17 | |
| Yeah. | 00:08:19 | |
| Program are you using? | 00:08:20 | |
| I don't know, my niece does that for me. | 00:08:22 | |
| I'll give you my e-mail address. Thank you. All right, let's go with the first one and then we'll just make it a little better. | 00:08:25 | |
| Good. Yeah, Yeah. All right. Thank you. All right, So do we need to vote? I'll make a motion to approve the 1st. | 00:08:32 | |
| Sample that she gave us pending Renee's input on those the purple door piece. | 00:08:39 | |
| I second that motion. | 00:08:44 | |
| All in favor say aye. | 00:08:46 | |
| Aye, all right. | 00:08:48 | |
| Yay. | 00:08:49 | |
| How we're pays off. | 00:08:51 | |
| So long. | 00:08:52 | |
| All righty. | 00:08:55 | |
| The three, OK, I'm sorry. | 00:08:57 | |
| Oh, business. OK, new business. Is that the pizzeria? | 00:09:03 | |
| Yeah, OK, gotcha. OK, so yeah, so stupid appropriateness. The Riverwalk Pizzeria at 200 Osborne St. | 00:09:07 | |
| So the first thing we'll do is city. Does the city have anything? | 00:09:13 | |
| OK. The proposed signage replicates previous owners sign and the size, style and placement. | 00:09:17 | |
| Unlike the previous configuration, though, the new proposal consolidated signage into a single business rather than two. | 00:09:24 | |
| So it reduces the overall space dedicated to signage. | 00:09:31 | |
| It is compliant with Section 62123 signage within the Historic district. | 00:09:34 | |
| It adheres to the limit of two signs per lot, with only one freestanding sign permitted. | 00:09:40 | |
| The size of the wall sign is compliant with the requirement to remain under 40 square feet and the size of the freestanding sign | 00:09:45 | |
| is compliant with the requirement to remain under 25 square feet. | 00:09:50 | |
| Staff finds the proposed signage to be appropriate and consistent with the established character of the property. | 00:09:55 | |
| And recommends approval as submitted with the following conditions. | 00:10:00 | |
| If an electrical connection is required, the applicant must obtain the electrical permit before installation. | 00:10:04 | |
| And the applicant shall adhere to section. | 00:10:09 | |
| 62123 A 6B which requires the base of a freestanding sign to be shielded by plants. | 00:10:12 | |
| All righty. | 00:10:22 | |
| I think it sounds great. | 00:10:24 | |
| That's previous. | 00:10:26 | |
| And new. | 00:10:29 | |
| For the wall sign. | 00:10:32 | |
| New for the freestanding sign. | 00:10:34 | |
| All right. | 00:10:38 | |
| You want to just say your name and address. | 00:10:46 | |
| Some of us already know you. | 00:10:50 | |
| Signs here for 200. | 00:10:51 | |
| Osborne Rd. | 00:10:54 | |
| We just try to keep everything compliant. | 00:10:55 | |
| The road sinus is actual logo. | 00:10:58 | |
| And it does have the wood grain in the background that you can't see on that small image. | 00:11:00 | |
| But to put that on the building, you would never read his business name, so we removed that part so it's more visible. | 00:11:04 | |
| Any questions from the board? | 00:11:15 | |
| No. | 00:11:17 | |
| Do we have motion? | 00:11:19 | |
| I motion to approve it. | 00:11:22 | |
| I second. | 00:11:24 | |
| All right, all in favor, say aye. | 00:11:25 | |
| Aye. | 00:11:27 | |
| That was easy. | 00:11:29 | |
| All right, um. | 00:11:35 | |
| So we do have a discussion based on the historical marker design. | 00:11:40 | |
| Designs, but it was. | 00:11:45 | |
| Earlier it was a week or two ago. | 00:11:47 | |
| Yes, and I do not believe that we have everyone's input yet on. | 00:11:50 | |
| Are one of them top three choices of historical markers? | 00:11:56 | |
| So I'm going to send this down for you all to fill out if that's OK. | 00:11:59 | |
| Your top three choices. | 00:12:05 | |
| If you have any questions about them, let me know. | 00:12:19 | |
| Actually, while we were going through this, thank you so much. | 00:12:22 | |
| Thank you. Yeah, so I can see what's the table since we route them at least. Do you have those? | 00:12:26 | |
| Do you have this up there? | 00:12:33 | |
| And Renee were way in the planning stages of this, just trying to get something. | 00:12:35 | |
| Like some people have acorns, some people have the trees, right? People have. | 00:12:41 | |
| And I think it's going to be a total of how they're backwards. | 00:12:45 | |
| This is probably what we're looking at. Your sister. | 00:12:48 | |
| Choose your top three and their number. Pick your top three. Yeah. OK, so I've got, I have done a lot of driving around and found | 00:12:50 | |
| the same thing. I mean, there's the tree, there's the Peach, there's. So can I show you guys a couple things? Just Yeah, yeah, | 00:12:57 | |
| Renee, while you're looking at those, one of the things that we were looking at because of the weather and the water and where we | 00:13:04 | |
| are moving from wood signs to some type of a metal, aluminum or option. | 00:13:10 | |
| Like we are now for them. It's high density urethane. We've been making them that way. | 00:13:18 | |
| Instead of all the Redwood that's out here, what's that called? Is that like a resin? | 00:13:23 | |
| OK, Any other choice? | 00:13:28 | |
| About $400. | 00:13:30 | |
| Well the other ones were when the others at 3. Is that OK right now? | 00:13:32 | |
| Any other option for material other than I can't believe she's sitting here so we're going to use. Oh yeah, absolutely. | 00:13:36 | |
| One, I'm just saying if you want dimensional. | 00:13:43 | |
| You're going to want the HDU or you're going to want to flag. So if we don't, if we don't need to dimensional, can we look at? | 00:13:45 | |
| Any type of anything you want, any design you want out of aluminum composite material and I can tell you 10 times in the historic | 00:13:53 | |
| district to look at them. | 00:13:57 | |
| OK, so look at those and make and just say to us a good idea or not. | 00:14:01 | |
| Fine, but if you are making them dimensional like that first one that was on there would be established. | 00:14:07 | |
| That is too small to route. | 00:14:12 | |
| You're going to have to bulk up the font. That's why it's so much thicker on Orange Hall and see 1830, because in order to laser | 00:14:15 | |
| or route them. | 00:14:19 | |
| If someone can come up with their fingernail just. | 00:14:24 | |
| If you make the strip too small or if the drill bit slips. So before we get too far in, we're also talking about generics. | 00:14:27 | |
| Probably not the nicest word to use, but a more generic sign for historic buildings versus historic district instead of specifics | 00:14:34 | |
| like Orange Hall or the, you know, Captain Morris House or the thing like that. If is that a less cost if it's a generic versus a | 00:14:40 | |
| specific? | 00:14:47 | |
| Square footage, so it doesn't matter. OK, So that's something for us to keep in mind because we do have. | 00:14:54 | |
| Homeowners, absolutely, and they and they may want signs that are specific to their family, so that's good. | 00:14:59 | |
| I have two people that I said. | 00:15:05 | |
| Right, right, right. We got Yeah, OK, and and I've got. | 00:15:07 | |
| Comments. Last question with that, I think we talked about this. | 00:15:13 | |
| Last time is. | 00:15:17 | |
| In the two different, so you have the historic district and then you have those new homeowners. | 00:15:19 | |
| Who aren't are in the historic district. | 00:15:24 | |
| But have a house they just built which we have some of those. | 00:15:28 | |
| That they need to be. | 00:15:32 | |
| Different. So you have the historic. | 00:15:34 | |
| And then the non historic so that. | 00:15:37 | |
| You've got Kerry and Cecil Gay that just bought the Harris House down right. It's a historic house. It has a marker in front of | 00:15:40 | |
| it. | 00:15:43 | |
| But they don't want it to say the Harris house anymore. They wanted to have their names on it. | 00:15:46 | |
| But we're probably going to be doing a discussion that we're going to possibly have the year. | 00:15:50 | |
| And maybe the original owner. | 00:15:55 | |
| And then have a QR code that will. | 00:15:58 | |
| Would give the story instead of putting the new homeowner. | 00:16:01 | |
| Because it's, I'm talking about in the historic district. Isn't that what we were talking about to make it? Because it's in the | 00:16:05 | |
| historic district. So when somebody put the historic stuff, but they want to. | 00:16:10 | |
| Name their house the Lily pad. So instead of saying oh, the hairs, whatever, they wanted to say the Lily pad and then they could | 00:16:15 | |
| put 1830 in the Harris information. But they don't want that to be. | 00:16:19 | |
| Yeah. I think that we just have to have a discussion on that. It's going to have to be. | 00:16:24 | |
| Now if you do a QR code though, you cannot. | 00:16:28 | |
| Yeah. | 00:16:31 | |
| I was going to ask that say that one more time. I'm sorry. If you do the QR code thing, which I think I'm sorry, can you go to the | 00:16:33 | |
| microphone just in case We have people watching on TV, they can hear your discussion. Thank you. | 00:16:38 | |
| If you do choose dimensional. | 00:16:44 | |
| You're going to have to have a raised surface with a digital print for the QR code you cannot route or do anything for. It won't | 00:16:46 | |
| work. | 00:16:49 | |
| Wow, that's beneficial though, because. | 00:16:53 | |
| If by chance the website goes down or changes or anything else, all you do is pull that decal off and put a new one on. | 00:16:56 | |
| Just in the QR code area. | 00:17:03 | |
| Can you just blow through those and kind of tell us the pros and cons to some of those as she scrolls? | 00:17:06 | |
| Or some that you say, oh this is great or not great or. | 00:17:11 | |
| So, umm. | 00:17:15 | |
| I like the top left design. You're just going to have to bulk up the font if you do dimensional. If not, you can make it whatever | 00:17:18 | |
| the benefit of. | 00:17:22 | |
| Any of them is. You can print those colors, you just can't print metallic. | 00:17:26 | |
| So it can look metallic but not be metallic. | 00:17:31 | |
| You can also print wood grain if you want them to look wood grain. | 00:17:34 | |
| If you go down some of those larger ones. | 00:17:41 | |
| Those are more like. | 00:17:44 | |
| State Park signs. | 00:17:46 | |
| You don't want downtown savings look like a State Park. | 00:17:49 | |
| So those are all plaques. | 00:17:52 | |
| And fairly cost effective. About the same as dimensional sign, but they take 4 weeks to produce OK. | 00:17:54 | |
| The scroll bracket is what you have on most of your businesses in historic district now anyway. | 00:18:02 | |
| Is that #10? | 00:18:09 | |
| So the number 10 like the scroll? Yeah, that's the scroll bracket. OK. | 00:18:11 | |
| I like that way. What are the downfalls to that one? | 00:18:16 | |
| Hurricanes. | 00:18:20 | |
| Think about that. | 00:18:25 | |
| OK, every hurricane, we're down here picking somebody sign off the ground. | 00:18:26 | |
| OK, that's the old design. When the Cumberland Harbor first came around and their design company decided that's what they wanted | 00:18:30 | |
| for all the businesses and that became the trend. | 00:18:35 | |
| I mean, that's honestly how that came about, OK. | 00:18:41 | |
| Because something like #10 be put on a. | 00:18:46 | |
| 4 by 4 wood post with. | 00:18:49 | |
| Holes and Oh yeah, you can build your bracket out of anything you want. Umm. | 00:18:51 | |
| I like the look of 10. I do understand her the concern. | 00:18:56 | |
| So you can also take the hanging part out and make them not swing. | 00:19:01 | |
| That's an idea. | 00:19:08 | |
| So I attached them to a. | 00:19:09 | |
| A pole like if you wanted to keep the scroll bracket look like you have now, you drill a hole through it and do threaded rod | 00:19:11 | |
| through it and put nuts and what we call an acorn washer on it. | 00:19:16 | |
| Or an acorn nut on it. | 00:19:21 | |
| So it's just rounded. That's what we do on Checkout Island for all of their signs. | 00:19:23 | |
| Because of the wind. | 00:19:28 | |
| They don't swing or anything though. | 00:19:29 | |
| But they have the same. | 00:19:32 | |
| Look, the only thing you're missing is a chain, and they last pretty good in the wind. | 00:19:33 | |
| What was the terminology that you said? You said take hanging bracket out and. | 00:19:38 | |
| Right rod, a flat metal bracket or threaded rod? OK. | 00:19:44 | |
| The thing is that someone knows to buy their own. | 00:19:52 | |
| Scroll bracket. You can get them on Amazon, you can get them at Lowe's, you can get wherever. You're never going to find one for a | 00:19:55 | |
| fixed. You're going to have to drill it and do it yourself. | 00:19:58 | |
| And Elise, I'm assuming we're still looking at a grant? | 00:20:03 | |
| To help for. | 00:20:09 | |
| The historic markers. | 00:20:10 | |
| So that's hand painted, that's hand painted, that's a plaque. | 00:20:15 | |
| That's a printed metal sign. Now, 14 and 13 are similar to the one that we were just discussing. Yes. Yeah, but 13 is dimensional. | 00:20:20 | |
| It's a bronze plaque for the back. | 00:20:25 | |
| Painted background. | 00:20:30 | |
| And #14 is a flat metal sign with a digital digital print on top of it. So it's 13 I'm assuming a lot more expensive. | 00:20:31 | |
| Second piece of bonds. | 00:20:40 | |
| It can be. | 00:20:41 | |
| The most cost effective thing you're going to get is an aluminum composite material with a digital print on it. | 00:20:44 | |
| Which would not be raised. | 00:20:51 | |
| Nope. OK. | 00:20:53 | |
| But. | 00:20:55 | |
| Because it's an aluminum composite, it does not rust from the salt water in our air. | 00:20:56 | |
| If you go to the football stadium, the whole football stadium is losing them composite materials. Would you roll up, scroll up to | 00:21:03 | |
| that red one the right there? | 00:21:07 | |
| Number is that 9? | 00:21:11 | |
| That and then look at Meridian Park and I think that Topsfield are those both. | 00:21:14 | |
| Aluminum I would guess. | 00:21:19 | |
| Yeah, yeah. But they have a backer on them to make them look more dimensional, right? And then all the way up to the top, and | 00:21:21 | |
| they're one way at the top. That's Red Keep going. | 00:21:25 | |
| No, that's just gonna plaque. Plaque. | 00:21:30 | |
| Like the Meridian one I think is one that some and that could be anything that's a digital print. | 00:21:33 | |
| What's the colors it looks? | 00:21:39 | |
| Dimensional. | 00:21:40 | |
| So I've got a. | 00:21:42 | |
| A question about. So if it's the aluminum this it would be attached. | 00:21:45 | |
| Currently they are attached. | 00:21:51 | |
| To afford in their post right in the front yard. So this aluminum would be attached to probably a metal pole. | 00:21:53 | |
| In the front yard. And so my question, not seeing this, what type of metal pole are you trying? Oh, I don't know what that's what | 00:22:01 | |
| I'm asking. What would it be attached to? I think it'd be on A4 box. I would still keep the 4x4 post because otherwise you're | 00:22:06 | |
| going to need to have to get a fence post. | 00:22:11 | |
| An ugly you channel post. | 00:22:16 | |
| The 4 by 4 is your best option. OK, no, that's great. So with that in the aluminum? | 00:22:18 | |
| Marker is it? | 00:22:26 | |
| I just think about kids out playing or somebody and getting cut. I mean, how is it? | 00:22:28 | |
| What I am is an aluminum composite material, so it's only a very thin sheet of aluminum. | 00:22:33 | |
| And then it's got composite material on the inside. OK. So there's not a chance. | 00:22:39 | |
| No, it'll be. | 00:22:45 | |
| And they're routed to shape. The other thing is if you have a home that. | 00:22:46 | |
| Doesn't have a yard that can be displayed with it. You don't have to put it on post, they could put it straight to their building. | 00:22:50 | |
| Like a plaque? Yeah. | 00:22:56 | |
| OK, so how thick are they then? | 00:22:59 | |
| 8th inch. | 00:23:02 | |
| So they're pretty thin then? | 00:23:04 | |
| Well, you're not going to get aluminum. Most aluminum is 080090. | 00:23:07 | |
| 8th inch is pretty thick. | 00:23:11 | |
| All right, so could it get bent or anything? I mean, yeah, if someone took a baseball bat to it, OK. | 00:23:13 | |
| So if you guys want visual the card shop, the sports shop right over here, that's a printed ACM sign. | 00:23:20 | |
| We approved that one, yes, yeah. And then around the corner. | 00:23:28 | |
| I can never. I'm not. I'm a woodbine girl, so. | 00:23:33 | |
| Umm around the corner behind. | 00:23:36 | |
| The settlement group. | 00:23:40 | |
| Where it was like the cheese and charcuterie and wine place. That one is aluminum composite material too. | 00:23:42 | |
| Seagulls. The signs on seagulls that look, yeah, they're aluminum composite. | 00:23:50 | |
| I think that's definitely something we want to look, yeah. And qualifying. | 00:23:54 | |
| Called way less OK. | 00:23:58 | |
| With us and when you say weight loss, just say we're looking at a. | 00:24:02 | |
| One your post and all or just. | 00:24:06 | |
| The sign? No, not including the post, just the sign and the. | 00:24:09 | |
| We're not less than half the dimensional sign. | 00:24:16 | |
| Wow. And if you put a list together and you guys collect the money and do them all at once, it'd be even less. | 00:24:19 | |
| OK, comes in a 4 by 8 sheet, so whatever size you decide. | 00:24:24 | |
| You just round. | 00:24:29 | |
| OK, well keep scrolling at least. Maybe she's got some thoughts on. | 00:24:30 | |
| I don't like those two red ones. | 00:24:34 | |
| That's just my personal opinion. The which one? | 00:24:38 | |
| Keep going the right ones. | 00:24:40 | |
| 9. | 00:24:42 | |
| And 12:12, yeah, or even 11. I don't like either of those. That looks like a college campus to me. I would never want that in my | 00:24:44 | |
| front yard. | 00:24:48 | |
| But if it's for a bed and breakfast, maybe. | 00:24:55 | |
| But for the other, maybe you do a commercial and a residential. | 00:24:57 | |
| Because that that sign is about. | 00:25:02 | |
| 16 inches tall. OK, OK. | 00:25:04 | |
| I see nothing wrong with 1718 or 19. | 00:25:09 | |
| I like both. I like those 3. | 00:25:12 | |
| And even if you didn't do the dimensional plaque, you could print it to look like that. OK, so I'm going to ask just one more time | 00:25:14 | |
| to clarify. So they just say the old Todd homestead #17 we print, we, we order that one for the old Todd Homestead. But then we | 00:25:20 | |
| look at Captain Morrison. It's got built in the and it's got their history. And then we've got another one built in their history. | 00:25:25 | |
| But they're made out of those aluminum sheets. It's. | 00:25:31 | |
| All the same price because. | 00:25:37 | |
| Is parts by square foot OK? | 00:25:39 | |
| So you pick a size. | 00:25:41 | |
| Yes, yeah. | 00:25:44 | |
| Yeah, yeah. | 00:25:45 | |
| Now could we do? | 00:25:47 | |
| The aluminum composite and like do it curvy like the. | 00:25:49 | |
| Like the Orange hall one or something like that. Yes, you can run into shape, that's not a problem at all. | 00:25:53 | |
| Instead of the square. | 00:25:58 | |
| Yeah. Just wondering if we have. | 00:26:00 | |
| You know we can do different shapes so. | 00:26:02 | |
| So. | 00:26:05 | |
| When we do these. | 00:26:07 | |
| Can have. It's going to have the different wording and. | 00:26:09 | |
| In the years, but are we going to to make it the Saint Mary's Historic District marker? | 00:26:13 | |
| I can't remember Julia, it might have been you. | 00:26:21 | |
| Put the seal the Saint Mary's seal, which has the tree and has. | 00:26:24 | |
| As the identifier, and maybe that's what makes it different from. So what happens when the seal changed because the seal used to | 00:26:29 | |
| be a ship? | 00:26:34 | |
| About Oh, really? And your Georgia dot signs still have the vote on them? Well, I don't know, at least. Is there any plans to | 00:26:39 | |
| change the city? I understand. I've been doing it for 15 years. I've lived here my whole life. So that's things you need to think | 00:26:44 | |
| about if you're trying to change it forever. | 00:26:50 | |
| Yeah, that would be up to City Council and there and all to change it if they wanted to, because that seal is different than. | 00:26:56 | |
| Than it was in the past. | 00:27:04 | |
| Because when I started working for Saint Mary's, it was a different seal. | 00:27:06 | |
| Yep, sailboat. Obviously sailor change because it comes with a big cost. | 00:27:10 | |
| And they got a lot of on their plate. Well, the benefit of aluminum composite digital print is you just take the vinyl off and put | 00:27:16 | |
| a new one on. | 00:27:19 | |
| Are we OK? | 00:27:22 | |
| So if you guys decide, is it going to be in the next meeting? | 00:27:25 | |
| Since you guys are discussing this now. | 00:27:29 | |
| What was the question? Is it going to be in the next meeting? | 00:27:31 | |
| Probably. | 00:27:34 | |
| We've been working on Come see me and I'll just give you samples. Yeah, we've been working on a long time. And I'm sorry that | 00:27:36 | |
| maybe Taiga not being here is a good thing. I don't know. Do you think? Yes. And thank you, really. Thank you for being here. | 00:27:41 | |
| Because I have them right on the desk, right when you walk in Dalton signs. I have no problem because I know how to get them back. | 00:27:47 | |
| And see if we can. Yeah, bring some. And then you can have them in your hand and see. | 00:27:53 | |
| That'd be awesome. So maybe we should hold off on doing this until we. | 00:27:57 | |
| Already voted, So what do you want to see samples of? | 00:28:02 | |
| Well, you know what, Renee? What we'll do is we'll go ahead and at least made-up this form. The five of us will go ahead and say | 00:28:05 | |
| we like these and we'll look at those and then I'll come see you and then we'll make some decisions. | 00:28:10 | |
| Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Like the plaques, you can take a plaque with you. I have samples sitting at the office. I'll just | 00:28:16 | |
| have to have them back to give to customers. But if there's one that you want to see printed. | 00:28:20 | |
| Just I need to get home. Thank you. Send it to me and I'll print it up for you. | 00:28:25 | |
| That's amazing. | 00:28:30 | |
| Thank you, I'm so glad. | 00:28:32 | |
| Maybe she can come back next month. Yep, OK. | 00:28:35 | |
| Well, wait a minute. What's the date? Hold on. Yeah, it's. | 00:28:39 | |
| Last Tuesday of the month, so the. | 00:28:41 | |
| The last Tuesday of the month would be. | 00:28:46 | |
| 25th Oh, it's the 29th. | 00:28:50 | |
| 828. | 00:28:54 | |
| No, 29th. 29th, yes, I'll be here. | 00:28:57 | |
| Spring samples so y'all can touch them and see. | 00:29:01 | |
| That'd be great. Thank you so much. You're welcome. OK, thank you. | 00:29:03 | |
| All righty, is there anything my e-mail so if anybody has questions. | 00:29:08 | |
| Will do. Thank you. | 00:29:12 | |
| Man, that's awesome. Thank you for thank you. | 00:29:15 | |
| We appreciate it. | 00:29:18 | |
| Hey, you too. | 00:29:20 | |
| City, do you have anything? | 00:29:23 | |
| I believe that Tage had wanted to discuss. | 00:29:25 | |
| The light posts in the historic district, they don't all match. | 00:29:31 | |
| I don't have much more to say about that other than that's on the radar, something we're looking at, something to think about, the | 00:29:37 | |
| design. | 00:29:40 | |
| That you like if you look at them and notice the differences, that type of thing. | 00:29:44 | |
| But that's do we have pictures of them, examples or anything? Probably she has anything right now, but I was. | 00:29:49 | |
| Don't get me on the third one of mine. And the other thing too is the one thing that I would like to bring up next meeting is to | 00:29:56 | |
| use dark downside seating. | 00:30:00 | |
| I know that was something that we. | 00:30:05 | |
| Like they kind of fell off. | 00:30:06 | |
| And I know there was in there with the cracking coffee. | 00:30:08 | |
| So like, you know, we're, you know, kind of is there anything else on our end or is that going to get voted on by City Council or? | 00:30:13 | |
| Nothing else on your end. OK, so he's passed us and it's. | 00:30:20 | |
| On the City Council at this point. OK, cool. | 00:30:24 | |
| So we've done our due diligence. | 00:30:26 | |
| Yeah, OK. | 00:30:28 | |
| All right, anything else you can think of? | 00:30:30 | |
| Next. All righty. | 00:30:34 | |
| Well. | 00:30:36 | |
| Do we have a motion to adjourn? | 00:30:39 | |
| I'll make the motion to join the meeting. | 00:30:40 | |
| I second. | 00:30:43 | |
| All in favor, Say aye, all right. | 00:30:44 | |
| I don't know if I'm supposed to be going back in with. | 00:30:47 | |

| Well, shoot, now it's hard to even control the kids because it's right. | 00:00:00 | |
| Yeah. | 00:00:06 | |
| I think we're going to be ready here and whenever, whenever they're ready, we'll be ready. | 00:00:08 | |
| There she comes, right? | 00:00:13 | |
| All righty, let us let us know when you are up. | 00:00:16 | |
| And we'll kick it. | 00:00:20 | |
| We are good to go. | 00:00:26 | |
| Already. | 00:00:28 | |
| All right. | 00:00:30 | |
| Good evening. Welcome to the 24 June 2025 Historic Preservation Council meeting. | 00:00:33 | |
| But we make sure our mice are on. | 00:00:38 | |
| And then we're going to do a roll call. | 00:00:40 | |
| Kelly Knapp, Melvin Taylor, Julia McCullough, Scott. Two Boys. | 00:00:43 | |
| All right, looks like we have a quorum with with the total of 4. | 00:00:47 | |
| And so. | 00:00:51 | |
| I just wanted to start with, are there any initial comments from the city? | 00:00:54 | |
| Nope. All right. | 00:00:58 | |
| So we'll move. We'll need to approve the minutes from the 27th May meeting. | 00:01:00 | |
| We received in the e-mail packet. | 00:01:05 | |
| Does anybody have any questions on them or? | 00:01:07 | |
| Do we have a motion? | 00:01:09 | |
| I'll make a motion to approve the minutes from last month. | 00:01:11 | |
| All in favor say aye. Oh, I'm sorry a second. I apologize. | 00:01:14 | |
| 2nd. | 00:01:18 | |
| See, that's what you make mistakes. All in favor say aye aye. | 00:01:19 | |
| All right. We have a unanimous vote on that. | 00:01:24 | |
| OK, so. | 00:01:27 | |
| All business. So we have a certificate of appropriateness for the purple door. | 00:01:29 | |
| At 100 Osborne St. | 00:01:34 | |
| And so we'll start with the city. Does the city have anything? | 00:01:36 | |
| OK. At the previous meeting, the Commission continued the application for the purple door signage. | 00:01:41 | |
| Requesting the following revisions. A softer white color for the base. | 00:01:49 | |
| A revised font and a design that is more consistent with adjacent commercial signage and a correction of the apostrophe in Saint | 00:01:54 | |
| Mary's, Georgia. | 00:01:58 | |
| The applicant has submitted 3 revised design options that address those concerns and comply. | 00:02:03 | |
| With section 62123 of the Historic Signage Regulations. | 00:02:09 | |
| Staff supports approval of either option or any of the three options and recommends that the Commission and the applicant discuss | 00:02:14 | |
| and select the preferred design. | 00:02:18 | |
| All right, with that said, man, would you like to come up and state your name and your address? | 00:02:22 | |
| It should only take about 30 minutes. I'm joking around. Tracy O'Brien, 100 Osborne St. And yeah, there's three actions to pick | 00:02:28 | |
| from an enlightened. | 00:02:33 | |
| So the color on it. | 00:02:38 | |
| Is you can't really tell on there, but it's like a lighter yellow, so. | 00:02:40 | |
| On there it's a little bright, but it's a little lighter yellow. But there's three different ones. And I fixed my little Saint | 00:02:45 | |
| Mary's for you. | 00:02:48 | |
| So this is the first. | 00:02:53 | |
| Second one. | 00:02:56 | |
| And. | 00:02:59 | |
| Third one. | 00:03:03 | |
| I can. | 00:03:06 | |
| Go back to any of them. | 00:03:08 | |
| They're very minor. Just run through them one more time. Let us look at them. | 00:03:11 | |
| Option one. | 00:03:16 | |
| I think the second one. | 00:03:18 | |
| I like the first one, but I think the second one has more of. | 00:03:20 | |
| The font that's closer to market on. | 00:03:24 | |
| The square, Yeah. Which one do you like the best? | 00:03:27 | |
| I kind of like the first. | 00:03:31 | |
| But I'm between the 1st and the second. I'm not, it doesn't matter. | 00:03:34 | |
| What do y'all think? | 00:03:41 | |
| I love the first one. | 00:03:43 | |
| I think it's pretty. | 00:03:45 | |
| Do you currently have plans on? | 00:03:47 | |
| Leaving that space in October, is that what you said at the last meeting? I'm up in the air. I would like. So I talked to is it | 00:03:49 | |
| take? Is that how you say it take? | 00:03:53 | |
| He told me to ask you guys if you knew of anybody who had a rental spot. | 00:03:58 | |
| Like on ground level, on the ground. | 00:04:03 | |
| And he said maybe somebody here would know. | 00:04:06 | |
| So. | 00:04:08 | |
| I don't know. I mean, I'm just on if I stay past October and do another year, that's fine if I find something. | 00:04:11 | |
| On street level, I'm better. It's better for me as a business, but. | 00:04:19 | |
| So. So I guess that witty. | 00:04:25 | |
| I mean. | 00:04:27 | |
| I guess one option would be like. | 00:04:29 | |
| Does she wait to put the sign up until after? | 00:04:30 | |
| That timeframe or is that something that we? | 00:04:33 | |
| I mean, it doesn't matter, it'll be moving. | 00:04:36 | |
| I can, if I take it, if I get another spot, I can always move it, you know what I mean? It'll be, it'll be movable. | 00:04:38 | |
| So I think we should make a decision and just let her go ahead and have the sign constructed and installed. | 00:04:44 | |
| OK. | 00:04:51 | |
| I just have a question. | 00:04:52 | |
| Is there a reason it's not like would like the market on the square one? To me it seems like it would be more cohesive that they | 00:04:54 | |
| were both similar well. | 00:05:00 | |
| So I don't really want to put a heavy sign up there with the wind and. | 00:05:05 | |
| I feel like it would be dangerous to have a heavy sign like that. The sign that I'm gonna put up there is gonna be aluminum. | 00:05:10 | |
| I can put wood around it. | 00:05:17 | |
| Or could we just have it tan instead of white? You know, so it is So what I was telling them before you got here. It is if you | 00:05:19 | |
| scroll up. | 00:05:22 | |
| It is like a lighter yellow, kind of like Market on the Square. | 00:05:26 | |
| You can see see that's white. | 00:05:29 | |
| And this one is still. It's a little bright, but the ones below it. | 00:05:32 | |
| They're the same color, but it's like a lighter, almost like a lighter yellow color. | 00:05:36 | |
| OK, it looks white to me, but can you scroll up to the next one? | 00:05:42 | |
| No the other way. | 00:05:46 | |
| Yeah, see. | 00:05:49 | |
| OK. Yeah, yeah. So it'll be more like that color. | 00:05:50 | |
| Yeah, that would be more cohesive. | 00:05:54 | |
| Yeah, because it kind of matches more of like their. | 00:05:57 | |
| Fighting, yeah. So that other one is the same. It's just the way it's. | 00:06:02 | |
| Because that one is from the screen and then the other one is a photo. | 00:06:07 | |
| OK. | 00:06:10 | |
| But I mean, wood would be great, but it would be very expensive and it would be very heavy and it's hanging on. | 00:06:12 | |
| Just that banister. So I don't think that's probably the smartest. | 00:06:19 | |
| Things in my opinion, but. | 00:06:23 | |
| I was just more concerned with the coloring. Oh, OK. Yeah, it's gonna be that color. It'll be that like lighter yellow. | 00:06:25 | |
| Any more questions? | 00:06:34 | |
| All right, and which one did we? | 00:06:36 | |
| Made the final decision or did you make the final decision? I'm between the 1st and the second. It doesn't matter to me. Does it | 00:06:39 | |
| matter at all? | 00:06:42 | |
| OK. | 00:06:46 | |
| Yeah, it's just that. | 00:06:49 | |
| Interpretation. | 00:06:50 | |
| All right. | 00:06:53 | |
| Whichever 1 you like. | 00:06:55 | |
| Oh jeez. OK, you pick one and. | 00:06:57 | |
| We'll vote on it, Yeah, let's go with. | 00:07:01 | |
| Can I see the other one? | 00:07:04 | |
| That one I feel like the wording is a little small. | 00:07:10 | |
| Yeah, the other one has bigger wording with Yeah, you know, I actually like that one a lot, but. | 00:07:13 | |
| Yeah, the wording is. The wording is. | 00:07:18 | |
| Yeah, that one may be a little more. | 00:07:22 | |
| Catch your eye. | 00:07:27 | |
| Like clear the purple door part. | 00:07:28 | |
| You could do that with the top one if you just put a border around it the same color and thicken the top and fine. | 00:07:32 | |
| I don't know, you guys. Pick one. I don't care. It doesn't matter. You have the professional sitting right. Which one she works | 00:07:39 | |
| for, Dalton signs. | 00:07:42 | |
| The purple door, but you want that part to be unique because that's the name of your business. But but order around your font. | 00:07:47 | |
| That's very thin to make it better. | 00:07:51 | |
| No, that's your girl. But then I got to change and have another meeting. | 00:07:56 | |
| I could have another meeting. | 00:08:05 | |
| If I change it again, right? She just changed it, yeah. | 00:08:08 | |
| You're not making any changes, you're just changing. OK, say it again. What do you want me to do? What did you say? | 00:08:12 | |
| Do make it what? A border? | 00:08:17 | |
| Yeah. | 00:08:19 | |
| Program are you using? | 00:08:20 | |
| I don't know, my niece does that for me. | 00:08:22 | |
| I'll give you my e-mail address. Thank you. All right, let's go with the first one and then we'll just make it a little better. | 00:08:25 | |
| Good. Yeah, Yeah. All right. Thank you. All right, So do we need to vote? I'll make a motion to approve the 1st. | 00:08:32 | |
| Sample that she gave us pending Renee's input on those the purple door piece. | 00:08:39 | |
| I second that motion. | 00:08:44 | |
| All in favor say aye. | 00:08:46 | |
| Aye, all right. | 00:08:48 | |
| Yay. | 00:08:49 | |
| How we're pays off. | 00:08:51 | |
| So long. | 00:08:52 | |
| All righty. | 00:08:55 | |
| The three, OK, I'm sorry. | 00:08:57 | |
| Oh, business. OK, new business. Is that the pizzeria? | 00:09:03 | |
| Yeah, OK, gotcha. OK, so yeah, so stupid appropriateness. The Riverwalk Pizzeria at 200 Osborne St. | 00:09:07 | |
| So the first thing we'll do is city. Does the city have anything? | 00:09:13 | |
| OK. The proposed signage replicates previous owners sign and the size, style and placement. | 00:09:17 | |
| Unlike the previous configuration, though, the new proposal consolidated signage into a single business rather than two. | 00:09:24 | |
| So it reduces the overall space dedicated to signage. | 00:09:31 | |
| It is compliant with Section 62123 signage within the Historic district. | 00:09:34 | |
| It adheres to the limit of two signs per lot, with only one freestanding sign permitted. | 00:09:40 | |
| The size of the wall sign is compliant with the requirement to remain under 40 square feet and the size of the freestanding sign | 00:09:45 | |
| is compliant with the requirement to remain under 25 square feet. | 00:09:50 | |
| Staff finds the proposed signage to be appropriate and consistent with the established character of the property. | 00:09:55 | |
| And recommends approval as submitted with the following conditions. | 00:10:00 | |
| If an electrical connection is required, the applicant must obtain the electrical permit before installation. | 00:10:04 | |
| And the applicant shall adhere to section. | 00:10:09 | |
| 62123 A 6B which requires the base of a freestanding sign to be shielded by plants. | 00:10:12 | |
| All righty. | 00:10:22 | |
| I think it sounds great. | 00:10:24 | |
| That's previous. | 00:10:26 | |
| And new. | 00:10:29 | |
| For the wall sign. | 00:10:32 | |
| New for the freestanding sign. | 00:10:34 | |
| All right. | 00:10:38 | |
| You want to just say your name and address. | 00:10:46 | |
| Some of us already know you. | 00:10:50 | |
| Signs here for 200. | 00:10:51 | |
| Osborne Rd. | 00:10:54 | |
| We just try to keep everything compliant. | 00:10:55 | |
| The road sinus is actual logo. | 00:10:58 | |
| And it does have the wood grain in the background that you can't see on that small image. | 00:11:00 | |
| But to put that on the building, you would never read his business name, so we removed that part so it's more visible. | 00:11:04 | |
| Any questions from the board? | 00:11:15 | |
| No. | 00:11:17 | |
| Do we have motion? | 00:11:19 | |
| I motion to approve it. | 00:11:22 | |
| I second. | 00:11:24 | |
| All right, all in favor, say aye. | 00:11:25 | |
| Aye. | 00:11:27 | |
| That was easy. | 00:11:29 | |
| All right, um. | 00:11:35 | |
| So we do have a discussion based on the historical marker design. | 00:11:40 | |
| Designs, but it was. | 00:11:45 | |
| Earlier it was a week or two ago. | 00:11:47 | |
| Yes, and I do not believe that we have everyone's input yet on. | 00:11:50 | |
| Are one of them top three choices of historical markers? | 00:11:56 | |
| So I'm going to send this down for you all to fill out if that's OK. | 00:11:59 | |
| Your top three choices. | 00:12:05 | |
| If you have any questions about them, let me know. | 00:12:19 | |
| Actually, while we were going through this, thank you so much. | 00:12:22 | |
| Thank you. Yeah, so I can see what's the table since we route them at least. Do you have those? | 00:12:26 | |
| Do you have this up there? | 00:12:33 | |
| And Renee were way in the planning stages of this, just trying to get something. | 00:12:35 | |
| Like some people have acorns, some people have the trees, right? People have. | 00:12:41 | |
| And I think it's going to be a total of how they're backwards. | 00:12:45 | |
| This is probably what we're looking at. Your sister. | 00:12:48 | |
| Choose your top three and their number. Pick your top three. Yeah. OK, so I've got, I have done a lot of driving around and found | 00:12:50 | |
| the same thing. I mean, there's the tree, there's the Peach, there's. So can I show you guys a couple things? Just Yeah, yeah, | 00:12:57 | |
| Renee, while you're looking at those, one of the things that we were looking at because of the weather and the water and where we | 00:13:04 | |
| are moving from wood signs to some type of a metal, aluminum or option. | 00:13:10 | |
| Like we are now for them. It's high density urethane. We've been making them that way. | 00:13:18 | |
| Instead of all the Redwood that's out here, what's that called? Is that like a resin? | 00:13:23 | |
| OK, Any other choice? | 00:13:28 | |
| About $400. | 00:13:30 | |
| Well the other ones were when the others at 3. Is that OK right now? | 00:13:32 | |
| Any other option for material other than I can't believe she's sitting here so we're going to use. Oh yeah, absolutely. | 00:13:36 | |
| One, I'm just saying if you want dimensional. | 00:13:43 | |
| You're going to want the HDU or you're going to want to flag. So if we don't, if we don't need to dimensional, can we look at? | 00:13:45 | |
| Any type of anything you want, any design you want out of aluminum composite material and I can tell you 10 times in the historic | 00:13:53 | |
| district to look at them. | 00:13:57 | |
| OK, so look at those and make and just say to us a good idea or not. | 00:14:01 | |
| Fine, but if you are making them dimensional like that first one that was on there would be established. | 00:14:07 | |
| That is too small to route. | 00:14:12 | |
| You're going to have to bulk up the font. That's why it's so much thicker on Orange Hall and see 1830, because in order to laser | 00:14:15 | |
| or route them. | 00:14:19 | |
| If someone can come up with their fingernail just. | 00:14:24 | |
| If you make the strip too small or if the drill bit slips. So before we get too far in, we're also talking about generics. | 00:14:27 | |
| Probably not the nicest word to use, but a more generic sign for historic buildings versus historic district instead of specifics | 00:14:34 | |
| like Orange Hall or the, you know, Captain Morris House or the thing like that. If is that a less cost if it's a generic versus a | 00:14:40 | |
| specific? | 00:14:47 | |
| Square footage, so it doesn't matter. OK, So that's something for us to keep in mind because we do have. | 00:14:54 | |
| Homeowners, absolutely, and they and they may want signs that are specific to their family, so that's good. | 00:14:59 | |
| I have two people that I said. | 00:15:05 | |
| Right, right, right. We got Yeah, OK, and and I've got. | 00:15:07 | |
| Comments. Last question with that, I think we talked about this. | 00:15:13 | |
| Last time is. | 00:15:17 | |
| In the two different, so you have the historic district and then you have those new homeowners. | 00:15:19 | |
| Who aren't are in the historic district. | 00:15:24 | |
| But have a house they just built which we have some of those. | 00:15:28 | |
| That they need to be. | 00:15:32 | |
| Different. So you have the historic. | 00:15:34 | |
| And then the non historic so that. | 00:15:37 | |
| You've got Kerry and Cecil Gay that just bought the Harris House down right. It's a historic house. It has a marker in front of | 00:15:40 | |
| it. | 00:15:43 | |
| But they don't want it to say the Harris house anymore. They wanted to have their names on it. | 00:15:46 | |
| But we're probably going to be doing a discussion that we're going to possibly have the year. | 00:15:50 | |
| And maybe the original owner. | 00:15:55 | |
| And then have a QR code that will. | 00:15:58 | |
| Would give the story instead of putting the new homeowner. | 00:16:01 | |
| Because it's, I'm talking about in the historic district. Isn't that what we were talking about to make it? Because it's in the | 00:16:05 | |
| historic district. So when somebody put the historic stuff, but they want to. | 00:16:10 | |
| Name their house the Lily pad. So instead of saying oh, the hairs, whatever, they wanted to say the Lily pad and then they could | 00:16:15 | |
| put 1830 in the Harris information. But they don't want that to be. | 00:16:19 | |
| Yeah. I think that we just have to have a discussion on that. It's going to have to be. | 00:16:24 | |
| Now if you do a QR code though, you cannot. | 00:16:28 | |
| Yeah. | 00:16:31 | |
| I was going to ask that say that one more time. I'm sorry. If you do the QR code thing, which I think I'm sorry, can you go to the | 00:16:33 | |
| microphone just in case We have people watching on TV, they can hear your discussion. Thank you. | 00:16:38 | |
| If you do choose dimensional. | 00:16:44 | |
| You're going to have to have a raised surface with a digital print for the QR code you cannot route or do anything for. It won't | 00:16:46 | |
| work. | 00:16:49 | |
| Wow, that's beneficial though, because. | 00:16:53 | |
| If by chance the website goes down or changes or anything else, all you do is pull that decal off and put a new one on. | 00:16:56 | |
| Just in the QR code area. | 00:17:03 | |
| Can you just blow through those and kind of tell us the pros and cons to some of those as she scrolls? | 00:17:06 | |
| Or some that you say, oh this is great or not great or. | 00:17:11 | |
| So, umm. | 00:17:15 | |
| I like the top left design. You're just going to have to bulk up the font if you do dimensional. If not, you can make it whatever | 00:17:18 | |
| the benefit of. | 00:17:22 | |
| Any of them is. You can print those colors, you just can't print metallic. | 00:17:26 | |
| So it can look metallic but not be metallic. | 00:17:31 | |
| You can also print wood grain if you want them to look wood grain. | 00:17:34 | |
| If you go down some of those larger ones. | 00:17:41 | |
| Those are more like. | 00:17:44 | |
| State Park signs. | 00:17:46 | |
| You don't want downtown savings look like a State Park. | 00:17:49 | |
| So those are all plaques. | 00:17:52 | |
| And fairly cost effective. About the same as dimensional sign, but they take 4 weeks to produce OK. | 00:17:54 | |
| The scroll bracket is what you have on most of your businesses in historic district now anyway. | 00:18:02 | |
| Is that #10? | 00:18:09 | |
| So the number 10 like the scroll? Yeah, that's the scroll bracket. OK. | 00:18:11 | |
| I like that way. What are the downfalls to that one? | 00:18:16 | |
| Hurricanes. | 00:18:20 | |
| Think about that. | 00:18:25 | |
| OK, every hurricane, we're down here picking somebody sign off the ground. | 00:18:26 | |
| OK, that's the old design. When the Cumberland Harbor first came around and their design company decided that's what they wanted | 00:18:30 | |
| for all the businesses and that became the trend. | 00:18:35 | |
| I mean, that's honestly how that came about, OK. | 00:18:41 | |
| Because something like #10 be put on a. | 00:18:46 | |
| 4 by 4 wood post with. | 00:18:49 | |
| Holes and Oh yeah, you can build your bracket out of anything you want. Umm. | 00:18:51 | |
| I like the look of 10. I do understand her the concern. | 00:18:56 | |
| So you can also take the hanging part out and make them not swing. | 00:19:01 | |
| That's an idea. | 00:19:08 | |
| So I attached them to a. | 00:19:09 | |
| A pole like if you wanted to keep the scroll bracket look like you have now, you drill a hole through it and do threaded rod | 00:19:11 | |
| through it and put nuts and what we call an acorn washer on it. | 00:19:16 | |
| Or an acorn nut on it. | 00:19:21 | |
| So it's just rounded. That's what we do on Checkout Island for all of their signs. | 00:19:23 | |
| Because of the wind. | 00:19:28 | |
| They don't swing or anything though. | 00:19:29 | |
| But they have the same. | 00:19:32 | |
| Look, the only thing you're missing is a chain, and they last pretty good in the wind. | 00:19:33 | |
| What was the terminology that you said? You said take hanging bracket out and. | 00:19:38 | |
| Right rod, a flat metal bracket or threaded rod? OK. | 00:19:44 | |
| The thing is that someone knows to buy their own. | 00:19:52 | |
| Scroll bracket. You can get them on Amazon, you can get them at Lowe's, you can get wherever. You're never going to find one for a | 00:19:55 | |
| fixed. You're going to have to drill it and do it yourself. | 00:19:58 | |
| And Elise, I'm assuming we're still looking at a grant? | 00:20:03 | |
| To help for. | 00:20:09 | |
| The historic markers. | 00:20:10 | |
| So that's hand painted, that's hand painted, that's a plaque. | 00:20:15 | |
| That's a printed metal sign. Now, 14 and 13 are similar to the one that we were just discussing. Yes. Yeah, but 13 is dimensional. | 00:20:20 | |
| It's a bronze plaque for the back. | 00:20:25 | |
| Painted background. | 00:20:30 | |
| And #14 is a flat metal sign with a digital digital print on top of it. So it's 13 I'm assuming a lot more expensive. | 00:20:31 | |
| Second piece of bonds. | 00:20:40 | |
| It can be. | 00:20:41 | |
| The most cost effective thing you're going to get is an aluminum composite material with a digital print on it. | 00:20:44 | |
| Which would not be raised. | 00:20:51 | |
| Nope. OK. | 00:20:53 | |
| But. | 00:20:55 | |
| Because it's an aluminum composite, it does not rust from the salt water in our air. | 00:20:56 | |
| If you go to the football stadium, the whole football stadium is losing them composite materials. Would you roll up, scroll up to | 00:21:03 | |
| that red one the right there? | 00:21:07 | |
| Number is that 9? | 00:21:11 | |
| That and then look at Meridian Park and I think that Topsfield are those both. | 00:21:14 | |
| Aluminum I would guess. | 00:21:19 | |
| Yeah, yeah. But they have a backer on them to make them look more dimensional, right? And then all the way up to the top, and | 00:21:21 | |
| they're one way at the top. That's Red Keep going. | 00:21:25 | |
| No, that's just gonna plaque. Plaque. | 00:21:30 | |
| Like the Meridian one I think is one that some and that could be anything that's a digital print. | 00:21:33 | |
| What's the colors it looks? | 00:21:39 | |
| Dimensional. | 00:21:40 | |
| So I've got a. | 00:21:42 | |
| A question about. So if it's the aluminum this it would be attached. | 00:21:45 | |
| Currently they are attached. | 00:21:51 | |
| To afford in their post right in the front yard. So this aluminum would be attached to probably a metal pole. | 00:21:53 | |
| In the front yard. And so my question, not seeing this, what type of metal pole are you trying? Oh, I don't know what that's what | 00:22:01 | |
| I'm asking. What would it be attached to? I think it'd be on A4 box. I would still keep the 4x4 post because otherwise you're | 00:22:06 | |
| going to need to have to get a fence post. | 00:22:11 | |
| An ugly you channel post. | 00:22:16 | |
| The 4 by 4 is your best option. OK, no, that's great. So with that in the aluminum? | 00:22:18 | |
| Marker is it? | 00:22:26 | |
| I just think about kids out playing or somebody and getting cut. I mean, how is it? | 00:22:28 | |
| What I am is an aluminum composite material, so it's only a very thin sheet of aluminum. | 00:22:33 | |
| And then it's got composite material on the inside. OK. So there's not a chance. | 00:22:39 | |
| No, it'll be. | 00:22:45 | |
| And they're routed to shape. The other thing is if you have a home that. | 00:22:46 | |
| Doesn't have a yard that can be displayed with it. You don't have to put it on post, they could put it straight to their building. | 00:22:50 | |
| Like a plaque? Yeah. | 00:22:56 | |
| OK, so how thick are they then? | 00:22:59 | |
| 8th inch. | 00:23:02 | |
| So they're pretty thin then? | 00:23:04 | |
| Well, you're not going to get aluminum. Most aluminum is 080090. | 00:23:07 | |
| 8th inch is pretty thick. | 00:23:11 | |
| All right, so could it get bent or anything? I mean, yeah, if someone took a baseball bat to it, OK. | 00:23:13 | |
| So if you guys want visual the card shop, the sports shop right over here, that's a printed ACM sign. | 00:23:20 | |
| We approved that one, yes, yeah. And then around the corner. | 00:23:28 | |
| I can never. I'm not. I'm a woodbine girl, so. | 00:23:33 | |
| Umm around the corner behind. | 00:23:36 | |
| The settlement group. | 00:23:40 | |
| Where it was like the cheese and charcuterie and wine place. That one is aluminum composite material too. | 00:23:42 | |
| Seagulls. The signs on seagulls that look, yeah, they're aluminum composite. | 00:23:50 | |
| I think that's definitely something we want to look, yeah. And qualifying. | 00:23:54 | |
| Called way less OK. | 00:23:58 | |
| With us and when you say weight loss, just say we're looking at a. | 00:24:02 | |
| One your post and all or just. | 00:24:06 | |
| The sign? No, not including the post, just the sign and the. | 00:24:09 | |
| We're not less than half the dimensional sign. | 00:24:16 | |
| Wow. And if you put a list together and you guys collect the money and do them all at once, it'd be even less. | 00:24:19 | |
| OK, comes in a 4 by 8 sheet, so whatever size you decide. | 00:24:24 | |
| You just round. | 00:24:29 | |
| OK, well keep scrolling at least. Maybe she's got some thoughts on. | 00:24:30 | |
| I don't like those two red ones. | 00:24:34 | |
| That's just my personal opinion. The which one? | 00:24:38 | |
| Keep going the right ones. | 00:24:40 | |
| 9. | 00:24:42 | |
| And 12:12, yeah, or even 11. I don't like either of those. That looks like a college campus to me. I would never want that in my | 00:24:44 | |
| front yard. | 00:24:48 | |
| But if it's for a bed and breakfast, maybe. | 00:24:55 | |
| But for the other, maybe you do a commercial and a residential. | 00:24:57 | |
| Because that that sign is about. | 00:25:02 | |
| 16 inches tall. OK, OK. | 00:25:04 | |
| I see nothing wrong with 1718 or 19. | 00:25:09 | |
| I like both. I like those 3. | 00:25:12 | |
| And even if you didn't do the dimensional plaque, you could print it to look like that. OK, so I'm going to ask just one more time | 00:25:14 | |
| to clarify. So they just say the old Todd homestead #17 we print, we, we order that one for the old Todd Homestead. But then we | 00:25:20 | |
| look at Captain Morrison. It's got built in the and it's got their history. And then we've got another one built in their history. | 00:25:25 | |
| But they're made out of those aluminum sheets. It's. | 00:25:31 | |
| All the same price because. | 00:25:37 | |
| Is parts by square foot OK? | 00:25:39 | |
| So you pick a size. | 00:25:41 | |
| Yes, yeah. | 00:25:44 | |
| Yeah, yeah. | 00:25:45 | |
| Now could we do? | 00:25:47 | |
| The aluminum composite and like do it curvy like the. | 00:25:49 | |
| Like the Orange hall one or something like that. Yes, you can run into shape, that's not a problem at all. | 00:25:53 | |
| Instead of the square. | 00:25:58 | |
| Yeah. Just wondering if we have. | 00:26:00 | |
| You know we can do different shapes so. | 00:26:02 | |
| So. | 00:26:05 | |
| When we do these. | 00:26:07 | |
| Can have. It's going to have the different wording and. | 00:26:09 | |
| In the years, but are we going to to make it the Saint Mary's Historic District marker? | 00:26:13 | |
| I can't remember Julia, it might have been you. | 00:26:21 | |
| Put the seal the Saint Mary's seal, which has the tree and has. | 00:26:24 | |
| As the identifier, and maybe that's what makes it different from. So what happens when the seal changed because the seal used to | 00:26:29 | |
| be a ship? | 00:26:34 | |
| About Oh, really? And your Georgia dot signs still have the vote on them? Well, I don't know, at least. Is there any plans to | 00:26:39 | |
| change the city? I understand. I've been doing it for 15 years. I've lived here my whole life. So that's things you need to think | 00:26:44 | |
| about if you're trying to change it forever. | 00:26:50 | |
| Yeah, that would be up to City Council and there and all to change it if they wanted to, because that seal is different than. | 00:26:56 | |
| Than it was in the past. | 00:27:04 | |
| Because when I started working for Saint Mary's, it was a different seal. | 00:27:06 | |
| Yep, sailboat. Obviously sailor change because it comes with a big cost. | 00:27:10 | |
| And they got a lot of on their plate. Well, the benefit of aluminum composite digital print is you just take the vinyl off and put | 00:27:16 | |
| a new one on. | 00:27:19 | |
| Are we OK? | 00:27:22 | |
| So if you guys decide, is it going to be in the next meeting? | 00:27:25 | |
| Since you guys are discussing this now. | 00:27:29 | |
| What was the question? Is it going to be in the next meeting? | 00:27:31 | |
| Probably. | 00:27:34 | |
| We've been working on Come see me and I'll just give you samples. Yeah, we've been working on a long time. And I'm sorry that | 00:27:36 | |
| maybe Taiga not being here is a good thing. I don't know. Do you think? Yes. And thank you, really. Thank you for being here. | 00:27:41 | |
| Because I have them right on the desk, right when you walk in Dalton signs. I have no problem because I know how to get them back. | 00:27:47 | |
| And see if we can. Yeah, bring some. And then you can have them in your hand and see. | 00:27:53 | |
| That'd be awesome. So maybe we should hold off on doing this until we. | 00:27:57 | |
| Already voted, So what do you want to see samples of? | 00:28:02 | |
| Well, you know what, Renee? What we'll do is we'll go ahead and at least made-up this form. The five of us will go ahead and say | 00:28:05 | |
| we like these and we'll look at those and then I'll come see you and then we'll make some decisions. | 00:28:10 | |
| Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Like the plaques, you can take a plaque with you. I have samples sitting at the office. I'll just | 00:28:16 | |
| have to have them back to give to customers. But if there's one that you want to see printed. | 00:28:20 | |
| Just I need to get home. Thank you. Send it to me and I'll print it up for you. | 00:28:25 | |
| That's amazing. | 00:28:30 | |
| Thank you, I'm so glad. | 00:28:32 | |
| Maybe she can come back next month. Yep, OK. | 00:28:35 | |
| Well, wait a minute. What's the date? Hold on. Yeah, it's. | 00:28:39 | |
| Last Tuesday of the month, so the. | 00:28:41 | |
| The last Tuesday of the month would be. | 00:28:46 | |
| 25th Oh, it's the 29th. | 00:28:50 | |
| 828. | 00:28:54 | |
| No, 29th. 29th, yes, I'll be here. | 00:28:57 | |
| Spring samples so y'all can touch them and see. | 00:29:01 | |
| That'd be great. Thank you so much. You're welcome. OK, thank you. | 00:29:03 | |
| All righty, is there anything my e-mail so if anybody has questions. | 00:29:08 | |
| Will do. Thank you. | 00:29:12 | |
| Man, that's awesome. Thank you for thank you. | 00:29:15 | |
| We appreciate it. | 00:29:18 | |
| Hey, you too. | 00:29:20 | |
| City, do you have anything? | 00:29:23 | |
| I believe that Tage had wanted to discuss. | 00:29:25 | |
| The light posts in the historic district, they don't all match. | 00:29:31 | |
| I don't have much more to say about that other than that's on the radar, something we're looking at, something to think about, the | 00:29:37 | |
| design. | 00:29:40 | |
| That you like if you look at them and notice the differences, that type of thing. | 00:29:44 | |
| But that's do we have pictures of them, examples or anything? Probably she has anything right now, but I was. | 00:29:49 | |
| Don't get me on the third one of mine. And the other thing too is the one thing that I would like to bring up next meeting is to | 00:29:56 | |
| use dark downside seating. | 00:30:00 | |
| I know that was something that we. | 00:30:05 | |
| Like they kind of fell off. | 00:30:06 | |
| And I know there was in there with the cracking coffee. | 00:30:08 | |
| So like, you know, we're, you know, kind of is there anything else on our end or is that going to get voted on by City Council or? | 00:30:13 | |
| Nothing else on your end. OK, so he's passed us and it's. | 00:30:20 | |
| On the City Council at this point. OK, cool. | 00:30:24 | |
| So we've done our due diligence. | 00:30:26 | |
| Yeah, OK. | 00:30:28 | |
| All right, anything else you can think of? | 00:30:30 | |
| Next. All righty. | 00:30:34 | |
| Well. | 00:30:36 | |
| Do we have a motion to adjourn? | 00:30:39 | |
| I'll make the motion to join the meeting. | 00:30:40 | |
| I second. | 00:30:43 | |
| All in favor, Say aye, all right. | 00:30:44 | |
| I don't know if I'm supposed to be going back in with. | 00:30:47 | |
| Hey. | 00:30:50 |
