For illustrative purposes, the applicant has shown the reface of existing pole and monument signs, as allowed by Code. The proposal includes three (3) issues that require Master Sign Plan approval.

Third, the proposal requests two commercial signs, the “Meats” and the “Butcher” signs, that are painted directly on a building, whereas the closest applicable sign type, the applique sign, does not allow painted signage. Planning Commission must determine if the proposed signage meets the applicable Review Criteria, which includes, but not limited to determining if the proposed signage is of “higher quality” than required by Code and if the proposed signage does not “significantly alter” the historic or cultural context of the surrounding P.C.

Mr. Jurey informed Commissioner Craddolph that this business is located right outside of the Downtown area and is zoned “LI” (Light Industrial).
