General Policy 6

Officer assessed the painted sign with LED lights as traditional yet compatible with modern shopfront, common in street, adding interest without detracting or hazards.
General Policy 7
Prohibits advertisements not relating to the site/building. The signage directly advertises the vape shop on site, so complies without issue.
Time limit
The advertisement(s) hereby granted consent shall be begun before the expiration of four years from the date of this notice. Reason: To avoid the accumulation of unimplemented advertisement consents.
