_________________________________________________________________________________________ <br />City of Arden Hills <br />Planning Commission Meeting for February 7, 2018 <br />P:\Planning\Planning Cases\2017\PC 17-004 - Sign Code Amendment\Memos_Reports_17-004 <br /> <br />Page 2 of 8 <br /> <br />Sign Districts <br /> <br />The Sign Code currently includes nine sign districts in the City based on land use and <br />geographical location. Generally, properties in commercial and industrial zoning districts are <br />permitted more signage than properties in residential districts, and properties with frontage on <br />main commercial corridors like Lexington Avenue are allotted greater signage than properties on <br />secondary roadways. The purpose of this is to grant appropriate signage for business visibility in <br />the City’s commercial districts while minimizing the negative impacts of signage in residential <br />areas. <br /> <br />As part of its evaluation of the Sign Code, staff reviewed the current sign districts. Staff is <br />recommending that the sign districts be reorganized based on similar zoning districts rather than <br />geographical location. The zoning districts generally conform to geographical areas and road <br />corridors in the City already, and creating sign districts based on zoning districts will allow for <br />easier administration of the Sign Code. <br /> <br />The table below outlines the proposed and existing sign districts. The zoning districts with <br />primarily industrial uses (B-4, I-Flex, I-1, I-2, and Gateway Business) would be grouped together <br />as Sign District 7. The primarily office and retail districts (B-1, B-2, B-3, and Neighborhood <br />Business) would be grouped in three different sign districts given the different intensity of <br />development in these districts. Staff is only recommending a change to the number ordering for <br />the residential sign districts at this time. A new overlay district is also proposed for properties <br />with frontage on I-694, I-35W, or U.S. Highway 10. <br /> <br />Sign District Proposed Existing <br />District 1 Residential properties (R-1/R-2) Residential properties (R-1/R-2) <br />District 2 Residential properties (R-3/R-4) Non-Residential Uses (R1-R4) <br />District 3 Non-Residential Uses (R1-R4) Residential properties (R-3/R-4) <br />District 4 <br />B-1 and Neighborhood Business <br />Districts <br />Properties fronting on County Road <br />E east of Hwy 51 except properties <br />with frontage on Lexington Ave. <br />District 5 B-2 District <br />Properties fronting Lexington Ave. <br />south of I-694 <br />District 6 B-3 District <br />Properties fronting Lexington Ave. <br />north of I-694, Highway 96, and <br />properties in B-1 District <br />District 7 <br />B-4, I-Flex, I-1, I-2, and Gateway <br />Business Districts <br />Properties in I-Flex, Gateway <br />Business or without frontage on <br />roadway designated above. <br />District 8 <br />Civic, Institutional, Parks and Open <br />Space, and Conservation Districts Neighborhood Business District
