Alan Ducker, chairman, called the meeting to order. There is one item on the agenda.

216 East Main Street-Owner (Rachel Phillips) of Pet Stop was represented by Mr. Ted Youngblood, contractor on this project. Mr. Youngblood explained to the board that the intent of this building is to give it an updated look. The structure of the building is staying the same. The upper part of the roof is rotted replacing the rotted area and building it up 1 ft taller so it will hold an awning and stucco it to match the front of the building, and add a black awning like the ones at the Doodle Station. He also wants to add a culture stone to the corners of the building. Ms. Phillips likes the tan/brown colors so the stucco will be a lighter tan color with the stone work will be on the corners 1 ft each way, the awning on the top and the trim board around the “fake” front is stucco also with a darker brown color. The sides of the building will stay the same and it will be painted to match the stucco. The doorways will stay the same. The board reviewed the photo’s that were e-mailed to them. Repaving parking lot and redoing the landscaping. Mr. Youngblood discussed the signage for this building the owners wanted to get suggestions from the board. The signage will have to come before the board also for approval.

Mr. Shea O’Brien made 1st motion to approve, a second by Mrs. Jennifer McAlister, Mr. Alan Ducker asked if anyone had any further discussion and Jeff Fogle wanted to clarify that we are only approving the building portion not the signage and Mr. Ducker stated that is correct. With no further discussion a favorable vote was taken with no objections.

There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.
