Briefly, applicants propose to locate <br />a 45 s.f. wall sign facing Shoreline Drive to advertise the Christian School. The variances <br />required include: <br />square footage for an individual sign (12 s.f. allowed, 45 s.f. proposed) <br />- site signage square footage (24 s.f. allowed, 148 s.f. proposed) <br />maximum height of sign will be approximately 9’ (8’ allowed). <br />Planning Commission reviewed this request at their September meeting and voted 4-0 to <br />recommend approval, noting the length of frontage on Shoreline Drive and the commercial <br />namre of that thoroughfare. <br />Please note that the September 12th memo indicated the application included a conditional use <br />permit amendment. Staff has reviewed the signage code and notes that since specific standards <br />are given for signage for conditional uses [Section 10.61, Subd. 2 (A-3)l the conditional use <br />permit need not be amended but a variance is necessary, therefore the resolution has been <br />written as merely a variance approval. <br />Staff Recommendation <br />Staff recommends approval per the Planning Commission recommendation. A resolution for <br />approval is attached.
