Residents and board members urged greater visual continuity between the existing north-end sign and the proposed new sign at the south end. Comments from multiple speakers called for repetition and unity in park signage because the two park areas function as a single continuous park. Speakers and board members suggested a range of adjustments, including matching the lettering and font, introducing a corten-steel panel in place of the current green, centering the sign, flattening or reducing the sign's swoop, and adding short pilasters (small columns) above the wall cap to produce a more symmetrical appearance.

Staff described the proposed sign as a monument sign with a corten (Cort\u0000n) steel background and an aluminum letter finish; staff also said the stone base would match the park's Phase 2 masonry and that similar corten steel would be used across other city park signage. Several commenters emphasized that Lindley Park is inside a historic district and asked that the design either be revised to better complement existing historic materials or that a smaller version of the original north-end sign be installed at the south end.

After discussion the board moved to table the application and asked staff to return with options from the design team. The board specifically requested the design team consider, at a minimum: (1) reducing or eliminating the curved \"swoop\" in the wall; (2) adding short columns/pilasters that extend just above the wall cap on each side of the sign to better balance the composition; and (3) replacing the green panel on the existing north sign with a corten steel panel that matches the new sign in lettering, logo, and color so both ends of the park read as a coordinated pair. The motion to table was made by Amanda and seconded by Jill; the item will return to the board at the next meeting.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","City of Anderson Council Meeting - March 24, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","The Anderson City Board of Architectural Review tabled a proposed monument sign for Lindley Park Phase 2 after extensive public comment urging continuity with the park's historic character.","taxTitle","Anderson City, Anderson County, South Carolina","taxId",4579,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6626312,"Board approves demolition of deteriorated duplex at 1012 South McDuffie",88,600000,688000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2753712-ffebdf5ab90de7e54a95c284323efaf4&start=600&end=688","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2753712-ffebdf5ab90de7e54a95c284323efaf4/thumbnail_600000.jpg","/articles/6626312/Anderson-City/Anderson-County/South-Carolina/Board-approves-demolition-of-deteriorated-duplex-at-1012-South-McDuffie","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6626312-fa251d4def00d24c265ce06f24782580/orig.mp4?Expires=1775403303&Signature=oIR93AxcrkQ9Ra9EXIIifshDQbTQVaJ1K1-e1Uttks~S9MdWyLaSIVn2IdT2vz8a2uW18TG3IZdT5Jnc8bvS~RfTlRvdABNwBrg7y8TS9uG2e7mGu8sP38UhcqRh-Pz2QMTLvhN2ElnTixhO4wcylhbTmTNA8sXmkzKyvEWLI7g-HexpcqChzBc5HNmESC2V82MUulxLd8uvBzxgQjQnF2XnbD916VaDsFoJTalSc7AzWY6MjPxduTene~jhEml2Nf6ANt8o3eN~LJnRf807eUQOYF8x3Nj2LUbD7DAmHCd0iccZ~ySuuu0JGatRU-ZeinGP6E3RlRP9KXN5odGI6A__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Anderson City Board of Architectural Review approved an application to demolish a duplex at 1012 South McDuffie, following a staff recommendation that the building be removed because it no longer contributes to the historic character of the district and is in advanced deterioration.

City staff said the owners received multiple warnings about the structure and responded to a courtesy summons on Jan. 13 of this year. Staff reported the roof and other elements are beyond repair and recommended approval of demolition. The board accepted staff's recommendation and voted to approve the demolition.

A board member noted that a nearby structure had been demolished a few years earlier, but staff clarified they did not have a record of prior demolition approval for this particular building. The board did not record a formal roll-call of individual votes in the transcript; the motion to approve the demolition carried.

The transcript does not identify the property owner by name, the demolition contractor, or the proposed demolition schedule.

Staff told the board the design met the guidelines. Board members and commenters noted the sign's background is black and that the lettering has a slight gloss to provide contrast. A question was raised about the attachment method; staff said the applicant did not provide a definitive method during the discussion and suggested possibilities including Velcro or glue.

There was no proposal to illuminate the sign, and a staff member confirmed the sign would not be lit. The board proceeded to a motion to approve the application \"as submitted.\" The motion carried unanimously; the transcript records the motion was made by Billy and seconded by Mary Lou.

No further conditions or changes to the submission were recorded in the meeting notes. The transcript does not identify the applicant, the sign's exact dimensions, or the sign permit number.

City staff walked the board through the site: paved walkways and intersection improvements meant to formalize parking and improve pedestrian access; native plantings to support pollinators; islands for nesting habitat; and a covered-bridge structure. Staff described the bridge materials in detail: timber frames painted in a \"harbor mist\" brown, tongue-and-groove roof decking in a darker mountain-ash tone beneath a dark-bronze metal roof, and concrete piers painted a muddy gray. Stainless-steel tension cable railing and low bollard-and-chain elements were proposed on sections where the grade requires guardrails; where the drop is small the bridge will have little or no railing to preserve views.

Staff also noted the city intends to carry a consistent sign treatment (corten steel backgrounds with aluminum letters) across parks and asked the board to include the signage in the approval. The board approved the full package; the motion to approve was made by Mary Lou and seconded by Amanda.

Board members asked several clarifying questions during the presentation, including whether lighting would be included; staff said lighting plans were not finalized and offered to return with lighting details if the board desired. The project is in the Boulevard Historic District on the edge of the district, per staff comments; staff offered to check the precise district boundary for specific nearby residences if the board wanted clarification.

The board's approval covers the full package as presented; staff will proceed with permitting and any required follow-up.","The Board of Architectural Review approved a package of improvements for Cater Lake Park that includes paved, mostly handicapped-accessible walkways, formalized parking, native landscaping, a covered-bridge feature, stainless-steel tension railings, and monument signs consistent with the city's park signage program.","actionData","errors"]
