Please review the enclosed building permit application. The applicant proposes the attaching of a 4'x8' message board sign to the dry stack structure at North Shore Drive Marina. This specific sign had been used previously as a temporary sign for the marina property. The sign is attached to the upper southeast corner of the existing dry stack structure. The zoning staff has refussed to issue a building permit for a permanent sign as the above referenced code section would not allow attaching of a permanent sign to an accessory structure. The code specifically allows attachment only to principal buxldings or structures. Applicant should be encouraged to install a permanent sign with footings that meet the standards of the B-2 signage code, height limited to the height of the principal structure located adjacent to shoreline of Maxwell Bay. Such sign could not exceed 50 square feet in area. The property, at approximately 140' in width, would be allowed a total of 140 s.f. of signage.
