Att: Debbie BenUey
Pi=kering City Clerk's Office
Request for Sign Variance submittal of proposed "1030" TOYOTA pylon sign facing Hwy 401 at
above location. (Next Review Meeting November 15th). Picketing TOYOTA is opening early
December 2005.
Sign permit application was submitted late August 2005 to City of Pickering. Permit was i~ued
October 21st with notice that proposed 1030 D/F pylon cannot exceed 25'-0" in height.
Unfortunately throughout permit process, no mention was made of the 25' height restriction. We
were rather requested to provide Engineer Sealed drawing (structure & base) of ~ 1030 pylon,
which was submitted during City review process.
Engineer'mg review & approval has c,o~t over $1000.00 and was submitled to City of Picketing
and MTO (Ministry of Transporation of Ontario) for sign permit approval.
