The Board discussed the
current wording on the website outlining the displaying of signs in
the neighborhood.
The President handed out a
proposal for replacing the current wording with a revision making it
less ambiguous.
“In addition to the one sign permitted in Article, Par 3.19, a second
sign is permitted as follows:
During
construction of a home, one professionally lettered sign not larger than
3 (three) feet square will be
allowed
naming the prime (general) contractor building the house. That sign may
be put in place when site
preparation
for the slab is started and must be removed on the completion date as
defined in Par. J below.
Political
signs will be allowed as required by state law.” (Revised Oct. 7.2011)
Motion
to approve the new wording.

Jimmy Raper will amend the
two Architectural Control Committee forms with the signage revision and
email them to the secretary.
The Secretary will have those forms changed on the website and also
replace the current wording for signs on the Architectural
Control Committee revision page on the website.

sea gates again in September and there was found to be a build up of
silt in the base of the sea gate channel. This means that anytime

a city council meeting and spoke on behalf of Pelican Cove and the
residents of Aransas pass on the importance of having an agreement
with a contractor to install the sea gate in a hurricane emergency.

intention of having the same understanding for 2012.
