hereby finds, determines and declares that:
A. The proposed signs enhance the development, and are in harmony with,
and visually related to: a. All of the signs included in the sign program. This shall be
' accomplished by incorporating several common design elements such as materials,
letter style, colors, illumination, sign type or sign shape; b. The buildings and/or the
Resos 16-70 2
developments they identify by utilizing materials, colors or design motifs included in the
building being identified; and c. Surrounding development by not adversely affecting
surrounding land uses or obscuring adjacent approved signs.
The proposed signs utilize complementary colors, shapes and emblems and
reflect the building designs. As such, the proposed signs are visually related to a) all of
the signs included in the sign program and incorporate common design elements
including materials, colors, sign type and sign shape; b) the buildings the signs identify;
and c) the surrounding development since the proposed signs do not obscure adjacent
approved signs.
B. The sign program accommodates future revisions which may be required
due to changes in building tenants.
The proposed sign program can accommodate future revisions which may be
required due to changes in building tenants. The buildings are designed for commercial
uses and the sign program criteria will accommodate any future revisions due to
changes in building tenants, which would be anticipated to continue to be commercial
uses.
C. The proposed sign program satisfies the intent of this chapter, in that the
sign program complies with all the regulations of this chapter, except that flexibility is
allowed with regard to sign area, number, location and height. Further, to the extent the
sign program does not comply with the requirements of this chapter as to sign area,
number, location and height, the proposed sign program enhances the development
and more fully accomplishes the objectives of this chapter.
The proposed sign program is consistent with the intent of the Municipal Code
requirements for a sign program. The proposed Sign Program amendment only allows
deviation from the Development Code with regard to sign size.
