Salem Sign Ordinance Worksheet Page 2 CITY OF SALEM j► DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ICIMBERLh'Y DRISCOLL 120 WASHINGTON STREET♦SALEM,MASSACHUSETTS 01970 MAYOR "rE F.978-745-9595 ♦FAX:978-740-0404 LYNN GOONIN DUNCAN,AICP DIRECTOR September 13,2006 Patrick Osgood&Laine Chase Osgood Stone Works 250 Highland Avenue Salem,Massachusetts 01970 Re: Illegal Signage—Osgood Stone Works, 250 Highland Avenue, Salem, MA Dear Mr. Patrick Osgood&Mr.Laine Chase, On September 13, 2006 the Building Commissioner and I inspected the above referenced property and witnessed numerous signs in violation of the Salem Sign Ordinance. Listed below you will find each violation and the corresponding action required to comply. • One (1) aluminum wall sign fronting Highland Avenue mounted to building. This sign does not have a sign permit. All signage in the City of Salem must be reviewed and approved prior to their fabrication and installation. You must file the enclosed Salem Sign Permit Application and include all the submittal requirements and the associated sign application fee. • One (1) banner sign fronting Verona Street affixed to the roof. Section 3-45B(9) of the Salem Sign Ordinance states that signs shall not be installed above the roofline. In addition,banner signs cannot be permitted. Banner signs can only be used as temporary signage,which does not require a sign pemtit. However, section 3-45F of the Salem Sign Ordinance states "temporary signs can only be used for special sales and/or events lasting no more than fifteen (15) days and may only be affixed to the inside of the windows of the establishment facing out to the public way". The banner sign on the roof cannot be permitted and cannot be considered a temporary sign so it must be removed immediately. • Multiple banner signs affixed to the fence around the site. Section 3-55D of the Salem Sign Ordinance states,"signs posted on or attached to utility poles, fences, trees,lighting posts which are on or over a public or private way are prohibited". In addition,it appears that many of the banners affixed to the fence are off-premise sign, advertising for a business and products not located on the property. This is a violation of Section 3-56I of the Salem Sign Ordinance,which states"signs which advertise an activity,business,product,or service not produced or conducted on the premises upon which the sign is located are prohibited". Therefore,all of the banner sign must be removed immediately. Please submit the enclosed Salem Sign Permit Application for your existing/proposed signage and include all the submittal requirements and the associated sign application fee to this Department as soon as possible. As mentioned above, the only existing signage that can be permitted is the wall sign fronting Highland Avenue. If all the illegal signs are not removed from the fence and the roof within ten (10) days receipt of this letter, this matter will be forwarded to the Building Commissioner who may enforce the penalties and fines under Sec 3.36& 3.29 of the Salem Sign Ordinance and 780 CMR Sec 3102.4 of the Building State Code. Should you have any further question about this matter I can be reach at (978) 745-9595 ext 3I1.

Any person who shall continue any work in or about the building or structure after having been served with a Stop Work Order, except such work as that person is directed to perform to remove a violation or unsafe condition, shall be liable to a fine of not more than $1000, or by imprisonment for not more than one year, or both for each violation; with each day constituting a separate violation.
