� Council � ' Exhibit C Sign Descriptions COP� Lakeview Legacy Park ORONO Temporary Sign A temporary sign application for a 3' x 5' sign has already been submitted with a description of the type of sign, its location and the duration of its use (90 days). One change to the description has been made. Instead of producing the sign on printed aluminum,the sign will be printed on 16-18 mil heavy vinyl and stretched across the cedar frame indicated in the application. If necessary the banner will be further supported by a wood backing sheet.The sign has been discussed with Dave Engelman, owner of the UPS store in Wayzata, and they will produce the banner. Park Signs Given the educational focus, as well as the legacy aspect, signage will be very important to the Lakeview Legacy Park. Much of the inspiration for the use of signs has come from the University of Minnesota Landscape A�boretum as well as Noerenberg Memorial Gardens. Signs are also a key feature in the park plan articulated in Citizen for Lakeview Preservation's 501(c)(3)application and in its fundraising literature. Signs will fall into the following categories: 1) Main Park Sign 2) Interpretive/Educational Signs 3)Tree and planting signs 4) Memorial or dedication signs Main Park Sign At this point SLC and CLP have not finalized a specific design or construction for the main park sign. However it is contemplated that it will be similar to the large sign ( approx.8'x 4') approved by Orono for Noerenberg Gardens Memorial Park and located along Highway 51. The Lakeview Sign will be similarly placed along North Arm Drive. There will be only one main park sign. Interpretive/Educational Signs Considerable thought and inquiry has gone into the plan for interpretive and educational signs. The current site landscape plan has 7-8 such signs. These signs will all be of one construction aligned with the standards of the National Park Service: 2'x 3' phenolic resin high pressure laminate (10 year warranty) Traditional Style low profile base with 6 in wide aluminum support posts utilizing 2 in x 4 in aluminum tube with a welded plate at 30 degrees. A local vendor, experienced in this type of design, has been consulted and will produce the signs.
