Michael Behrendt Director of Planning and Community Development (“Town Planner”) Town of Durham 8 Newmarket Road Durham, NH 03824 (603) 868-8064 www.ci.durham.nh.us From: Dudley Dudley [] Sent: Monday, August 24, 2015 9:00 AM To: Michael Behrendt Subject: Getting the details right.... Dear Michael and members of the Planning Board: It is important to get the details right as we come into the final stretch of the latest chapter in Durham’s evolution. Signage is key. Of all the new construction Pauly’s building is the best looking addition to our town. But it goes wildly off track with the proposed signs which would be more at home in a strip mall, not at the major intersection of our traditional New England Main Street. I could support projecting signs of a more subdued design and suggest checking out websites like Cider Hill Woodworks that is responsible for many of the handsome signs in Portsmouth http://www.ciderhillwoodworks.com/signs.html. Please – insist on signs that are beautiful and add value to our new buildings with integrity and character. Best regards, Dudley Dudley Woodman Road
