Case VA-25-21 requested major variances at 6 N Northwest Hwy for a first-floor tenant space: window tinting, window signs affixed to the outside of the glass, and window signage above the allowed share of each pane. The draft minutes record votes of 5–0 to recommend approval of the tinting and 5–0 to recommend approval of exterior window signs; they also record that the petitioner withdrew the request for signage above the allowed share.
