General sign deyelopment and design requirements. The following general design requirements shall apply to permanent on-site signs. 1. Desitn compatibility with building. Signs shall be compatible with the architectural style of the primary building or buildings on the site where the sign is located. Signs located on commercial sites but in a predominantly resldential area shall consider compatibility with such residential area. ln determinin8 whether a sign is compatible, the Community Development Director may consider the form, proportion, scale, color, materials, surface treatment, overall sign size and the size and style of lettering. 2.

Awning siBns shall only be allowed for first- and second-story occupancies, and temporary signs shall not be placed on or attached to awnings, canopies or umbrellas unless authorized pursuant to a temporary sign permit. Monument sitns. Monument signs shall only be permitted as follows: a. ln an effort to promote full architectural integration of signs, voids between the sign face and the sign structure are prohibited. Either the sign face shall utilize the full width of the sign structure or coverings that are architecturally consistent with the rest of the siBn shall be used to fill any voids. b. Materials and design for freestanding signs shall be complementary to the materials and design of the buildings for the related development. For example, if the facade of the building is made of brick or brick veneer, a complementary monument sign would also include brick. c. For monument signs in multitenant centers, the name of the center shall not be calculated in the maximum sign area. Rather, the name of the center shall have a separate maximum sign area of 8 square feet. All tena nt signs shall have a minimum letter height of 8 inches.

The design of the landscaping shall be such that natural groMh will not obscure the sign from the public right-of-way. Proiecting signs. Projecting siBns, including, but not limited to, blade signs, bracket signs and marquee signs, shall be considered wall signs for the purposes of sign area calculations. Proiecting signs shall only be permitted as follows: a. Location. Projecting signs shall be placed only on ground-floor facades, except for businesses located above the ground level with direct exterior pedestrian access and shall be spaced to maximize visibility of the signage. b. Angle of projection. Projecting signs shall be located either at ri8ht angles to the building front along the building facade, or, when located on the corner of a building, at a 45- degree anBle to the corner of the building. c. HeiBht. The lowest point of a projecting sign shall be a minimum of 8 feet above grade. d. Projection and suspension. The sign may proiect a maximum of 5.5 feet from the bu ilding and shall be suspended with a clear space of at least 5 inches between the sign and the building. e. Sign structure.

A building's architectural style and overall proportions should guide the design and placement of signs and the sign types selected for each business. The size and shape of a sign should be proportionate with the scale of the structure and/or architectural feature on which the sign is placed. b. Wall sign raceways shall be concealed from public view (e.g., within the building wall or otherwise integrated with the design of the sign and building) so as to not detract from the architectural character of the buildinB. c. Channel letters, reverse channel letters and pushpin letters are required. Use-ef+a+s.igns is++€hib*€4 d. Signage containing multiple elements (e.g., logo and text) on one facade shall be designed so that the multiple elements are located and scaled with relationship to each other. e.

For businesses with more than one permitted wall mounted sign, the second sign shall not exceed eighty percent, third seventy percent, and fourth sixty percent of the maximum allowable sign area for the conesponding frontages.

Allowable sign area either is a set square footage per establishment or is based on a ratio of allowable sign area to primary building frontage (e.g., L square foot of sign per 1 linear foot of primary building frontaBe, or 1 sf:1 lf). Where a ratio is described, it applies to the maximum sign area listed in Table 9.220.130-1 (Signage Standards for Permanent On- Site Signs). Sign area ls calculated pursuant to Section 9.220.120 (sign Measurement Standards). The total sign area allowed herein for each sign type may be distributed among the maximum number of signs permitted for that sign type. For commercial, office and mixed- use zoning districts, there are additional wall sign allowances for sub-establishments. 2. Mixed-use zonint districts. ln mixed-use zoning districts, signage for residential uses shall be consistent with the standards for residential zoninB districts (e.9., as if the development were in a residential zoning district).
