1. in plan reviews for the proposed commercial c:se of this
site last year, approval of a freestanding sign was
specifically exempted. As the developer wishes to include
the sign_ in the contract for the construction of the
building on the property, a variance for such.a sign is
being submitted at this time.
POINTS TO BE CONSIDERED:
I. The sign presently contained in plans submitted by the
applicant is of the following dimensions:
Height to bottom of sign - 20 feet
Overall height - 261� feet
Gross surface area of sign -- 120 square feet
As a point of reference, the freestanding sign permitted for the
Goodyear dealership across the street from this site is
154 square feet in area and 22.5 feet in height above the
finished floor grade. (phis was the sign size approved
by the Council; the Commission had recommended 170 square
feet and 18 feet in height on March 30, 1967.)
The floor area used in the case of Goodyear was approximately
3,250, while the floor area of the Firestone building will
be approximately 8,350. Utilizing the Commission's Draft
Ordinance, this would again yield a sign 170 square feet
and 18 feet in height; using the Council's "Graph", a
154 square foot, 22.5 foot high sign would be permitl--ed,
as there is little differentiation from 100 square feet
of floor area on the Graph.
