Long Description of Problem: 

We need the letters removed above the MARC office. These will not be reused. We will also need the letters removed from the Cat's Pause. These will need to be saved to possibly reuse in the future. I consulted All-Signs on how to remove the letters. They said it will be a little tricky, because they are a foam letter with a light gauge metal laminate, applied with foam tape. The best way to remove them is with a stainless steel wire, or even a guitar string. Slide the wire behind the letter and with a back and forth motion, slowly cut through the foam tape. It requires a lot of patience. After removal, the tape will need to be cleaned off the wall & the letters, hopefully with as little damage to the wall as possible. Patch and paint the Cat's Pause awning if necessary. All-Signs is going to come and do a fresh install of the MARC letters on the awning at a later date. If there are any questions please ask.
