Ft. monument signs on the property. A shopping center, shopping mall or office center may apply for a master sign plan to allow the property owner or developer, subject to city approval, the option of designating an area that will allow flexibility in sign location, size and number due to peculiarities in the location or configuration of parcels of real property or the intended uses of the combined area, or to allow creative sign management in exchange for a cumulative approach to sign management Using the City’s Master Sign Plan Ordinance to evaluate requests the following comments are offered: Livability: The proposed Master Sign Plan would not have a negative impact on this site or surrounding properties. The request for a Master Sign Plan is not out of line and is consistent with development in the area. Reasonableness: The proposed Master Sign Plan will provide area visibility to the shopping center and will positively impact the retail shopping center. Based upon the preceding analysis, Staff recommends approval of the request. Chairman Peacock asked if the purpose of the Master Sign Plan was to make it easier for the owner of the development to place signs on the property. Mr. Brinlee responded that it did and helped to address signs all at once instead of submitting requests one at a time or asking for variances to the ZBA if needed. Chairman Peacock then asked if there were any questions for staff. Hearing none he asked if there was any discussion or in anyone had a motion. Member Tercero moved the case be approved as presented. 05/05/2022 Page 2 Member Russel seconded the motion, with the vote being a unanimous "aye".
