RESOLUTION NO. 77 -67
RESOLUTION AMENDING COUNCIL RESOLUTION NO. 74 -169
AND ESTABLISHING SIGNERY CRITERIA FOR SPECULATIVE
INDUSTRIAL BUILDINGS ABUTTING 69TH AVENUE NORTH
WHEREAS, site and building plan approvals for the speculative industrial
buildings at 6800, 6820, and 6840 Shingle Creek Parkway stipulate that no signery
shall be permitted on the north side of said buildings unless expressly approved
by the City Council; and
WHEREAS, said restriction was made in consideration of the site aesthetics
and impact upon the residential properties to the north; and
WHEREAS, none of said buildings has access onto 69th Avenue North, thus
diminishing the need for identification signery visible from 69th Avenue North; and
WHEREAS, in response to certain signery proposals submitted by the
developer which were deemed unacceptable, the Council adopted Resolution No.
74 -169 on October 7, 1974, establishing general acceptable criteria for uniform
signery; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Advisory Commission on March 24, 1977 recommended
certain clarifying criteria for such signery, following a review of the policy and
experience to date;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of
Brooklyn Center to establish the following policy for permitted signery for the
north side of Speculative Industrial Buildings at 6800, 6820, and 6840 Shingle Creek
Parkway:
1 Appropriate signery shall consist of tenant identification wall
signs of such uniform design, color, and size so as to serve
as aesthetic identification of tenant areas from the premises
and not from the roadway or residential properties in the
neighborhood;
2. Tenant identification signery shall consist of individual
letters or characters not exceeding 12 inches in height; shall
be of uniform color; shall be unlighted; and shall be located
on the wall so the letters are not more than five feet above
the building floor grade.
3. Said signery shall be subject to review and approval by the
City and the permit requirements of Chapter 34.
