Commission approves projecting sign for 114 South Washington Street; plan commission to review lighting
Summary
The Historic Preservation Commission approved a sign permit for 114 South Washington Street and asked staff to confirm exterior lighting before Plan Commission review.
The Hinsdale Historic Preservation Commission on June 4 voted to approve a sign permit for 114 South Washington Street and noted that the sign’s illumination and related lighting will be reviewed by the Plan Commission.
Joe Garrino, the applicant, told the commission he planned to install a projecting sign above the back entrance at 114 South Washington. Garrino said the proposed sign is not illuminated; commissioners asked whether an existing light above the door would be removed when the sign is installed.
Bethany, village planning staff, said the Plan Commission typically reviews lighting and that staff would confirm whether the photographed light above the rear door would remain. Commissioners asked staff to flag the lighting for the Plan Commission’s review.
A motion to approve case A-32-2025 — sign permit review, 114 South Washington Street, installation of one projecting sign — passed by roll call vote. Commissioners voting “aye” were Commissioner Barkley (recorded elsewhere in the transcript as "Barclay"), Commissioner Weinberger, Commissioner Elder, Commissioner Olson and Chairman pro tem Bill Harlow.
Under the village process, this approval proceeds to the Plan Commission for any lighting or related review; staff said they will confirm details and circulate corrected or additional materials if needed.
Background: Case A-32-2025 is a sign-permit application for one projecting sign at a rear entrance at 114 South Washington Street. The applicant and staff noted no illumination is proposed for the sign; Plan Commission will review exterior lighting.
