Page 4 of 6 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Section 1240.02, Subd. 2, C. requires freestanding signs in Sign Districts 4 and 5 shall be <br />monument type ground signs with the copy resting on and supported by a solid base of brick or <br />rock-faced block in a color similar to or complimentary to the main structure on the site. The <br />material of the base must extend at least one-half way up the sides of the sign face. The <br />Applicant has complied with this requirement in the sign design as proposed. <br /> <br />The PUD approval for New Perspective Senior Living includes a condition that “All signage <br />shall meet the requirements of Sign District 4.” The Applicant is seeking flexibility in the <br />designated Sign District for their site to be consistent with the PUD approval for New <br />Perspective Senior Living. <br /> <br />As shown on the proposed rendering, New Perspective Senior Living will be featured on the <br />multi-tenant freestanding sign. This is consistent with the ordinance language for “on-premise <br />signage”. The Applicant has indicated in their narrative that this sign does not replace the single- <br />tenant monument sign that New Perspective Senior Living was approved on Outlot A (shown <br />below). However, Staff has been told by New Perspective Senior Living as part of their building <br />permit application that they do not intend to install a monument sign on Outlot A and will utilize <br />a portion of the proposed multi-tenant sign. The approved New Perspective Senior Living sign <br />and the proposed multi-tenant sign are shown in generally the same location on Outlot A. Outlot <br />A is 60 feet wide along Pine Tree Drive. <br /> <br />The Planning Commission has recommended that Outlot A be limited to only one freestanding <br />sign and sought City Attorney review of condition language to ensure a signed agreement was <br />sufficient regardless of who owns or has interest in Outlot A.
