Commission approves business signage at 2 & 4 Main Street with permit condition
Summary
Classic Signs received approval to install two double‑faced signs (four panels) for a single business at 2 and 4 Main Street; the commission required a building permit before installation and requested matte gold vinyl rather than reflective metallic finishes.
The Hollis Historic District Commission approved an application from Classic Signs to install signage for a single business spanning 2 and 4 Main Street, with the condition that the applicant obtain a building permit before installation.
The applicant described two double‑faced signs (four panels total), a black background with gold vinyl lettering and a matte finish to avoid reflective materials. Commissioners asked about color matching and whether existing shrubs had been removed; the applicant confirmed recent touch‑ups and explained that some printers can produce blacks that appear slightly green in renderings but that the specification is black with gold vinyl.
Commissioners also required a building permit and emphasized that sign materials should match the character of existing signage in the district. With that condition, the chair moved to approve the application, a commissioner seconded the motion, and members voted to approve the project.
The approval includes the sign design as presented and a condition that the building permit be obtained prior to installation.
