Present permissible 25 ft elevation to 40 ft with stipulation that they
then would lower sign 15 ft at their station at Highway #13 and Victoria
for benefit of adjacent residents of Highland Heights.

Highway #13 and Victoria should be lowered. An opinion was expressed that
the contingent lowering of the Standard Station sign on Highway X13
appeared to be a blackmail type of action on the part of applicant.
