Description of Request: Variance from Section. 35-330 to permit erection of a freestanding sign on the property. Property: 5425 Xerxes Avenue North (Part of Tract- E, R.L.S. #936) Owner of Prrperty: Red owl Stores, s, Inc. 13p1Ga;:GR0UND 1) This application was First considered by the Commission on Pebruary 2nd, where, following discussion, the application was tabled at the request of the applicant. The discussion Lrestired at the Corimiission's Fehrua.ry 23rd meeting, at which thne the Conwii.ssion determined that a field trip to the site wmld be in order before ac;: ing on the a.ppl.ication, whereupon the trip was set for March 18th, with action to be taken. at the Com iAss i.on' s meeting of March 30th. POINTS TO B.F C014SI-DERED : 1) The Commission, during its field trip, found that the view of the Red Owl site from the southwest on Highway #1.00 (which the application had stated was extremely important:) would permit any sign over 16.5 feet above grade on the Red site to be seen easily. 2) Using the Commission's Januax^y 5, 1967, Draft Sign Ordinance as a (Tai.de, Red Owl's 30,000 plus square fep.t of floor area. would be peaini.tted a. fraestandi.n, sign 20 feat in height and 250 square feet in area on each collector or .arte.rial street the `stabl.ishraent abuts. (assuming tNe.a.tmen - as an "i.n&ividiial detached establi.shr;ent or en-erprise") 3) You .rill -recall that, at the Commis:; on' s previous me eti.nus on this matter, the applicant raised the point that the Red. Carl, facility really fit neither the "integrated development'! or "single detached (�st.abl.islanent" del t niti ins, as it wi.l.l consist of two esta.Dlislmuesnts (Red. Owl. and ,Snyder Drug) �• within a single building. I aim sure you will wish to discuss this point further. Reference dimensions:, a) 856 ft..-finished :Floor elevation of the Red Owl.

Variance from Section 35-340 to permit erection of a freestanding sign on the property . 5425 Xerxes Avenue North (Part of Tract E, R, L. S. 4,036) Red Owl Stores, Inc. 1) in approvals of the site and building plans of the Red Owl Stare, approvals of freestanding signing were specifically exempted, hence this request, POINTS TO BE CONSIDERED: 1) The location of the proposed sign has not yet been firmly .fisted, but it would be in the southernportion of the property. 2) The size of the sign is proposed as 60 feet in height, the sign would be three sided, with each side having an Owl's head of approximately 150 square fact area, and a signing section lower on the sign stating the names of the tenants (Red Owl and Snyder Drug) of approximately 100 square feet on each side. The argument advanced by Red Owl for the height of the sign is that this height is necessary for the sign to be seen by potential customers approaching Brookdale from the southwest on Highway #100. Disregarding whether or not this is a valid argument, it appear,.: from calculation of the elevations of the highway, the Osseo Road overpass, and the Red Owl site: that any sign greater than (approximately) 12 to 15 feet above the elevation of the site could be seen on Highway ##100 approximately 1100 feet to the west of the Osseo Road overpass, 3) Using the Commission's January 5, 1967, Draft Sign Ordinance as a guide, a freestanding sign 20 feet in height and 250 square feet in area would be permitted on each coliector or arterial street the establishment abuts. center 1 Jay I s / State Bank �.. 56th Ave. trance s� Super- ol ette oBrook- daTle Goodyear TB' 0 0 l.. y� .qe 0 55t� NOS_. 67003 & 67004 BROOKDALE CENTER
