PLANNING REPORT <br /> DATE: July 10, 2014 <br /> CASE: SP2014-004 <br /> SUBJECT: Special Use Permit to Allow and Amendment to the Existing <br /> Comprehensive Sign Plan for Main Street Village, Allowing an Additional <br /> Ground& Wall signs <br /> APPLICANT: CU Companies <br /> REQUEST&BACKGROUND <br /> The applicant is requesting an amendment to the previously approved, and several times <br /> amended, Comprehensive Sign Plan governing allowed signage at Main Street Village. <br /> Specifically,the proposed amendment would allow: <br /> • Construction of a new ground sign near the center plaza area of the CU Companies <br /> property (fronting on Main Street), <br /> • Re-facing the existing ground sign(approved in 2009) to match the new ground sign, and <br /> • Expansion of allowed wall signage (specifically logos) on 500 & 550 Main Street. <br /> The new monument sign (ground sign) is the same size as the existing monument sign (to be re- <br /> faced), which is approximately seven feet tall and nine feet wide, or 63 SF. The applicant has <br /> proposed three different wall sign variations, one without a logo and two with logo options. The <br /> non-logo sign measures two feet tall and 14' wide, for 28 SF. The logo sign options increase the <br /> square footage 4.5 SF — 9 SF, or 32.5 SF — 37 SF in total graphic area. The intent with the wall <br /> signs is to provide for additional major tenant signage within the buildings at 500 & 550 Main <br /> Street. The sign locations are in the upper corners of the buildings at each end and mounted in <br /> the central entrance area connecting the two buildings. <br /> The Comprehensive Sign Plan for Main Street Village has been amended many times. <br /> Amendments were anticipated at the time the original sign plan was drafted, as it wasn't fully <br /> known what sign needs would arise as the property developed and became occupied. <br /> ATTACHMENTS <br /> A—Resolution <br /> B—Project Location Map <br /> C—Zoning Map <br /> D—Aerial Photograph <br /> E—Neighborhood Notification Map <br /> F—CU Company Narrative <br /> G—Special Use Permit Criteria Worksheet <br /> H—Ground Sign Illustration <br /> I—Ground Sign Size Details <br /> J—Wall Sign Size Details (non-logo sign) <br /> K—Wall Sign Size Details (logo sign options) <br /> L—Existing &Proposed Site Plan <br /> FINDINGS <br /> Section 9-041.
