i; city of <br /> VilA <br /> MCI <br /> ihe city that works for yoi <br /> Memo <br /> To: Janice Gundlach, City Planner <br /> From: Sandy Breuer, Parks and Recreation Director <br /> Subject: Signage Issues - Subway <br /> Date: October 12, 2012 <br /> The Parks and Recreation Department is excited about the opportunity for <br /> Subway to open a franchise operation within the New Brighton Community <br /> Center(NBCC). Staff is very supportive of this kiosk type restaurant. The <br /> Subway kiosk will maximize available space and provide foodservice capabilities. <br /> In 2011, the NBCC recorded 386,000 visitors. The Eagles Nest at the NBCC is a <br /> regional draw. On Saturdays during the busiest months of the year the NBCC <br /> hosts up to 20 birthday parties. With the addition of the Ramsey County Library, <br /> an additional 100,000 visitors have entered the facility. A food establishment at <br /> the NBCC would be a welcomed addition to our already established customer <br /> base and their guests. <br /> Parks and Recreation staff are negotiating a lease agreement with Subway. One <br /> of the terms in the current draft of the lease allows Subway to be included in the <br /> monument signs at NBCC. The intent is to include the Subway logo on these <br /> signs. Inclusion of the logo does not conform to the current Civic Campus <br /> Comprehensive Sign Plan. Parks and Recreation staff would like to recommend <br /> the following changes to the Civic Campus Comprehensive Sign Plan to allow for <br /> the Subway logo to be placed on the signage. <br /> Parks and Recreation Staff recommend that the Civic Comprehensive Sign <br /> Policy be amended to allow logos to be included on the monument signs. <br /> Parks and Recreation does not recommend amending the policy to allow color on <br /> the monument signs. <br /> The Parks and Recreation Director must approve all final plans and look of <br /> exterior sign changes that take place at the New Brighton Community Center. <br /> Parks and Recreation staff recommends the Civic Comprehensive Sign Policy to <br /> be amended to state (red type font denotes changes): <br /> O:ILEASB SPACE SUBWAYtSubway at NBCC Planning Commission Memo-Signage dot <br />
