The intent of the Town Board of Commissioners regarding the establishment of areas for murals is to encourage concentration of murals in the downtown area of the town. However, this intent should not be used as the sole rationale to deny murals in other areas of the town.
(A) Mural design approval required for permit issuance. Prior to painting, installation and execution of a mural, an application must be submitted for review and approval by the Town Board of Commissioners.
(B) Mural design amendment - approval required. Prior to amending a mural design (whether painted or not yet painted) that has been approved by the Town Board of Commissioners, an application for an amendment of the permit shall first be approved by the Town Board of Commissioners. Upon approval, the permit for the mural shall be amended.
(C) Location of murals. It is the intent of the Town Board of Commissioners that murals be located on the side of buildings that have been approved by the Board.
(D) Downtown Carthage murals. No wall mural shall be permitted in downtown Carthage except those in compliance with this chapter.
