In order to provide guidance and assistance to the area residents and businesses of the town in protecting and promoting the spirit and quality of the town, the following suggestions concerning appropriate signage are offered by the concerned citizens who worked on the town sign ordinance and which suggestions are endorsed by the Town Council.
(A) Externally illuminated signs are preferred because the character of the illumination produces less brightness and glare. This lighting will compliment rather than compete with decorative street-lighting fixtures.
(B) While internally illuminated signs are permitted, it is recommended that light letters or figures on a dark background be used in order to reduce overall brightness and glare.
(C) It is recommended that lettering on signs be “serif” style for any letter greater than six inches in height.
