It would be the same color and size, just changing the verbiage on it. This change was approved by the Board, with the stipulation that he fills out a Certificate of Appropriateness. Today the Board was presented with the Certificate of Appropriateness, but now Mike Rosenswie is asking to change to existing signage to represent the name of Springville Eye Care which will be operating out of the building.
