that she had worked with Mr. Cohen on this sign and moved
to approve it. Seconded by Mr. Skat. Mr. Skat, Mrs.
Stairs, Mr. Singeisen, and Ms. Sollien in opposition.
All others in favor. Motion tied. Mr. Singeisen stated
that a building of this style would more than likely have
something of a street sign, a hanging icon symbolic of
the type of business that is being housed there. He
stated that he is not opposed to the sign but rather the
treatment of it. Mr. Skat stated that he would like to
see the sign in a wood frame. Ms. Sollien stated that
she thinks Mercantile Building should have,
proportionately, a lot more of the sign than the tenants
.listed underneath and then small at the bottom, maybe a
little hanging rental info sign that could be taken on
and off as appropriate. She would rather see it without
the pillars.
Mr. Skat moved for approval of the sign without the
pillars with it being framed in wood with the Mercantile
Building sign being the full 8' width of the sign and 1
1/2 times the height of the tenant signs, with the rental
sign attachment be removable. Seconded by Ms. Kmett.
All in favor. Motion carried.
109 West First Street (The Tin Lizzie) - Install Railing
for Outdoor Seating Area: Sean McKay, Manager, was
present for representation. Mr. VanGaale stated that
there is a right -of -way use permit to go before the City
Commission. The City Commission usually wants this
Board's opinion before acting. Mr. VanGaale stated that
he has talked with the City Manager and it was decided
that 4' is needed between the planter and the railing.

Stairs noted that she would be attending this workshop
and would bring back books. Ms. Sollien noted that she
had talked to Donna McIntosh about this and Ms. McIntosh
had said that any time there is something like this, to
try to get the course materials because, generally, this
is just as good as someone attending. This is an
inexpensive way for them to keep updated on preservation
law.
