Sign Permit Application
To Whom It May Concern,
We,the employees and owner of Witch City Ink of 186-3 Essex St, Salem,
Massachusetts, propose to employee the use of a sandwich-style folding sign in order to
further, and more effectively, bring attention and business to our establishment.
The dimensions of said sign are approximately 24 I/2"x 45"(width by height) with an
approximate sign area of 2 square feet.
The sign is constructed of plastic and adomed, primarily, in red. In a circus font, the sign
proclaims"TATTOOS"and contains a simple black line drawing of a snake, circus tent,
and monkey.
The sign will be situated in a recessed brick-lined area of the pedestrian walkway,
sheltered by a surrounding planter and removed, by approximately 4 feet from a city-
maintained bench.This location enables the sign to be located in an area outside of direct
pedestrian foot-traffic while maintaining a clear and non-congested walkway between the
entrance of our building and the aforementioned planter.
Our business has its own entrance, separate from that of the surrounding businesses and
establishments.
Thank you for your time and consideration, we look forward to your appraisal and
working with you to maintain a smoothly functioning and well-operating down town
section of Salem, particularly while we enter our busiest season,
Sincerely,
�

The submission, dated September 30, 2011, includes a sign permit application
form, letter, and photo of the proposed signage.
