 the design standards and other important documents.

 emphasized the need to use accent colors as a way to highlight
 architectural features and still be tasteful.

 encourage use of colors to emphasize features of the building instead of

 promoting business branding. The Commission discussed creating

 guideline in the Design Standards.
