CC/04/PN3-354WP5 3(12/12/90-3)
23.08.78 Regulatory Conclusions - Signs.
A. The project design is consistent with the size and shape of
all signs, and are in scale with the buildings to which they are
attached.
Evidence: The proposed signs are a wall sign measuring 32 square
feet and a projecting sign measuring 6 square feet which complies
with Section 30.60.100 E.2 of the Sign Ordinance. The sizes are
in scale with the building in that the size and shape of the signs
does not exceed the maximum dimension allowed.
B. The building design provides for adequate space and locations
on the building, in harmony with the architectural design, for the
display of signs.
Evidence: The width of the main entrance of the buildings, (the
east elevation) is 40 feet which provides more than adequate space
for the 32' square foot wall sign. This meets the requirement of
1 square foot per linear foot of main building entrance per Section
30.60.100 D.1 of the Sign Ordinance. The size of the proposed
projecting sign meets the requirement at 6 square feet maximum.
C. The project signing relates to the buildings of the project
and to the neighborhood in general in terms of size, shape, color,
texture, materials and lighting intensity, creating a visually
compatible appearance.
Evidence: The black, soft yellow, red, and white combination of
the signs adequately relates to the color of the buildings of the
project and to the overall commercial center in terms of color
which creates a visually compatible appearance.
D. The project signing conveys the message legibly and clearly.
Evidence: The black lettering with the soft yellow background does
convey a clear and legible message.
E. The proposed signing is weather resistant and durable.
Evidence: The proposed signage materials are made of natural
elements such as plywood and redwood and may have some wear and
tear over a long period of time due to adverse weather conditions,
however, maintaining the upkeep of the signs will allow them to be
durable.
CC/04/PN3-354WP5 4(12/11/90-2)
THIS DECISION was rendered by the DIRECTOR OF PLANNING AND
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT on December 11, 1990 and may be appealed to
the City Council pursuant to Section 23.08.200 and Chapter 1.12 of
the Municipal Code.
