A Georgetown, TX 78626 October 24, 2019 RE: 109 W. 7th Street Suite 100 This is the Letter of Intent for “Red Bird Mercantile”, located at 109 W. 7th Street, Suite 100. The tenant has requested that a new building sign be put up to match the overall character of the building. Paige’s idea is for a black and white long but short sign with raised lettering and border. The sign is made of 18” x 185” 6mm black maxmetal, with ½” thick white laser cut acrylic lettering and border. Paige would also like to replace the existing 7” x 72” hanging awning sign. It is a custom cut wooden, double sided sign. It will be replaced with a 7” x 72” MDO with black reverse out vinyl applied, double sided. We will also be putting white vinyl lettering on the windows of the building, towards the bottom with the name of the business. This will not cover more than 30% of the windows. We believe that the new signage will be within the Historic District’s standards.
