Historic Winchester seeks to improve downtown signage with a professional design approach. Heather Hendricks, a National Trust intern, studies signs and advocates for legible, contrasting colors and modern design. A planning office sign manual and permit review will guide merchants.
The BAR must approve signage in the historic district and planners provide guidance rather than endorsements. Merchants may use a planned file as a reference while a professional designer completes the final design. Preservation of Historic Winchester will offer a non profit listing of qualified designers to assist merchants. The sign manual aims to reduce confusion and elevate the downtown shopping environment.
The Board of Architectural Review will hear results and recommendations from the city signage study tonight at 7 30 p m in Reuss City Hall council chambers. Architect Heather Hendricks will present the signage guidelines for merchants sign painters and others in the Historic District and the public is invited.
