§ 8-3.6.9 Sign Materials.

   (A)   Sign materials should be selected with consideration for the architectural design of the building's facade. Sign materials should complement the materials on the facade and should contribute to the legibility of the sign.

   (B)   Sign materials should be very durable. Paper and cloth signs are not suitable for outside because they deteriorate quickly. When wood is used, it should be properly sealed to keep moisture from soaking into the wood and causing the sign's lettering to deteriorate.

   (C)   The following sign materials are encouraged for the town:

      (1)   Wood (carved, sandblasted, etched, properly sealed and painted or stained);

      (2)   Metal (formed, etched, cast, engraved and properly primed and painted or factory coated to protect against erosion);

      (3)   Masonry (brick, concrete, stucco and the like);

      (4)   Fiberglass; and

      (5)   Plastic.
