In July, Mrs. David Han-scom Han-scom presented the Planning Commission with a petition, bearing 95 signatures, contending con-tending the sign was "not necessary for identification." iden-tification." Mrs. Hanscom told the commissioners that the design of the sign was not an issue but rather the "commercial concept" it would introduce into a residential area. At last week's meeting, architect Ted Warr said he had talked to various property proper-ty owners in the area who held "different views". He noted that Larry Chambers, who lives directly across the club, approved of the sign. Although the commission had recommended that the sign designers meet with opponents op-ponents before resubmitting it, Warr asked the planners to vote on the sign "as presented". He referred to Mrs. Hanscom's admission that the majority of petition signers never saw a rendering ren-dering of the sign. When the sign came to a vote, commissioners Mike Vance, Bill Coleman and Rusty Davidson were in favor and Greg Lawson, Roy Reynolds and Merrill Sanchez San-chez were opposed.
