At that time, the application was tabled by the Conuaission to allow further study of the request. During this period in which the application was tabled, one of the prime movers for the alteration of the sign, the Kroger Store, entered into discussion with Macey Sign Company, and the status of the sign request became clouded.. The differences of opinion on the form Lhe sic�m is to take have been resolved, and Macey Sign Company woula again like the Commission to considar the sign's alteration. POINT'S TO BE CCK- SIDERED : 1) rChe sign sketch which has been submitted to illustrate the proposed alteration to the sign measures slightly under 125 sT are feet in area. The overall height appears to be in the neighborhood of 18 to 20 feet. -2- 2) 'Ibe. request in relation to the Planning Coscmlission' s January 5, 1967, draft sign ordinance., The proposed ordinance provides for freestanding signs =or "individual detached establishment" and. for "integrated developments", but not for: a) two attached establishments (example: Red Owl Stores building which houses a. Red Owl food store and a Snyder Drug Store; b) three or more attached buildings with less than 25,000 square feet: of total floor area (note: the proposed ordinance defines an ii.tegrated development as having a minirnum of 25,000 square feet of floor area - Lynn Brook Shopping Center has approximately 20, 000) . If the standards of the "integrated conrmerci.al developments" were applied to Lynn Brook, a freestanding sign not exceeding 32 feet in height and 200 square feet in area wouldbe perraissable. If the standards applicable to "individual detached eatablishments" were to be applied, the permissable freestanding sign could not exceed 1S feet in height and 170 square feet in area. Reference dimensions: a) 861 feet -• centerline elevation of Osseo Road adjacent to sign b) 862.5 feet - finished floor elevation of shopping center. `.. PLANNING COMMISSION INFORMATION SHEET Application No: Applicant: Description of Request: Property: Owner of Property: BACKGROUND: 66057 Macey Sign Company Variance to alter the existing pylon sign at Lynbrook Shopping Center,. increasing the square footage of that sign Lot 1, Block 1, Caving Lane Addition M C: E Realty, 501 South 8th Street Minneapolis, Minnesota 1) Macey Sign Company submitted an application (465055) in the fall of 1965 requesting that a monument type freestanding sign be allowed to be Unlaced on the grass strip between their property and Highway 44152 This request was denied by the Council on October ll,, 1965 because it was felt the masonry sign would constitute a visual traffic hazard, 2) Macey Sign Company made a second application for a freestanding sign at Lynbrook Shopping Center (V65091) somewhat latex in the year, This application requested a freestanding sign for the green strip between their parking area and Highway 4152. but was not a monument type. The following action was taken by the Village Council on November 8 1965: "Motion by John Leary and seconded by Earl Simons to uphold the recommendation of the Planning Commission on Application No. 65091 submitted by Macey Sign Company and grant a variance from Section 35-330 of the Village Ordinance to permit a freestanding sign 8 feet from the Osseo Road right-of-way and 40 feet south (along the right -.of way) of the 22 foot wide driveway entering 6215 Osseo Road (Lot 1, Block 1.. Ewing Lane Addition)., said-ariance to meet the following conditions: 1. The sign shall not exceed 50 square feet in area on each of the two sides: 2. The greatest height of this sign shall not exceed 12 feet above the centerline grade of Osseo Road at this point (center- line grade equals 861,00 feet above sea level or 673 feet above sea level: 3. There shall be no sign message on the sign structure between 861 feet above sea level and 868 feet: above sea level (between 0 and 7 feet above centerline grade). 4. The illumination shall be from ground mounted lights near the sign which do not interfere with the safe use of the adjacent roadway Notion carried unanimously," -.2- POIWI S TO BE CONSIDERM : 1) Since the time of the approval of the freestanding sign described above, the sign has been installed and the tenants of the shopping center have expressed a desire that the sign be improved by the addition of the individual shop names and the addition of a Kroger emblem along with some other minor .revisions, These revisions would increase the area of the sign to approximately 65 square feet which would be ivell within the square footage limitations which the Commission has envisaged in the forthcoming sign ordinance The present proposal of the sign ordinance would allow a free-- standing sign on each collector or arterial street the develo?,ment abutts, each sign not exceeding one percent of the gross floor building area in the development or 250 square feet whichever is smaller, and not more than 32 feet above ground level (gross floor area in this case is 20;120 square feet) Individual establishments within an integrated development would also be allowed signs - STAFF COMM[1VTS : OR
