Good evening and welcome to the Wednesday 2026 Municipal Arts Commission meeting of the City of New Rochelle. I'm Jane Walls. With me tonight is Michael Morera, Linda Kay, Fred Spinowitz, Javier Contreras, and Joe Guglielmo with the Department of Buildings and Kevin I Menez from the Department of Development. Thank you, Jane. So for tonight, um, for tonight's Mac meeting, we have two adjourned cases and two new cases. So we will begin with the adjourned cases for tonight. The first one on the agenda is 36-2026 application by Dave Pottinger to install an internally illuminated exterior wall sign with front lift push-through letters and a non-illuminated blade sign displaying the self studio at 632 Main Street. Application by Dave Pottinger to recover an existing awning measuring. We'll adjourn that for the next meeting. You want to adjourn it? Yeah, can you just come up because we want it on record? Okay. Yeah, okay. Okay, thanks. Uh thanks everyone. Uh Dave Pollinger from Fast Science. Uh for that uh 632 Main Street. Uh request an adjournment for that. We're still working with the customer to um you know work through that uh funding for that installation. So uh request an adjournment. Okay, just just so I mean that's fine. You also have the option, like if you were to be approved today, you know, you they would just have the approval. So you know you could still mean tonight. Yeah, okay. It doesn't mean that they have to do it right as is the moment they get the permit. You can just have we'll have the permanent file when the customer has the funds to install, then you can move forward with the installation. So it just all depends on what you want to do. So if you want to present it tonight, we can get that formality part out. You're here. Uh they make a changes to the sign? Uh there are no changes made. So what what was submitted is what we would uh plan to install. It would still be a uh internal illuminated push-through channel sign and a uh uh a blade sign non-illuminated, and they're still looking to recover the ones on and do you want to present it while you're here or sure. I have to go through the details. Yeah, I mean you're going through the hands. Yeah, some of us we've reviewed it since it was on the last meeting, so we're familiar with the design, but we'll just open that up so you can. Yeah, okay. Uh great. Thank you. So what what's shown on the screen is the um internal illuminated uh push-through um uh acrylic letter sign um with the text uh the self studio. Um the the methods of attachments are uh shown. Um so it's it's within the the code in terms of sizing, uh better heights uh and everything else uh should meet uh code requirements for for approval. Okay, that's just to show yeah, and this is just uh more information in terms of profile view of the sign.
