Mr. Aguilera said it should be noted that all other tenants have complied with the pre -established sign program, in- cluding two businesses that installed non -approved signs and were forced to remove them and install the correct type of signs.

Mr. Collier also reiterated information that led up to their Appeal, and stated that two other stores in the Court- yard Shopping Center had been allowed to use their own colors and signs. Mr. Collier said if they cannot display these colors and logo, they will be in violation of their franchise.
