Page 12 of 17 <br /> <br /> <br />F. Menu Board Signs – Intent to Comply <br />• A fast food restaurant under the city sign code Section 1240.04 is allowed menu board <br />signage. <br />• The menu board sign shall be no taller than eight (8) feet, a maximum of 40 square feet, up <br />to two (2) signs are permitted per drive-through lane, and the total surface area of the two <br />signs shall not exceed 40 square feet. <br /> <br />In the original plan set, the Applicant had shown two menu board signs for Panera restaurant that <br />had a combined sign area of approximately 50 square feet. The Applicant stated to the Planning <br />Commission that they did not intend to request flexibility for menu board signs and this may have <br />been a miscalculation on their part. Following the Planning Commission meeting, the Applicant <br />has indicated in their final narrative that “all menu boards shall comply with City of Arden Hills <br />code in size and design.” No updated renderings were submitted for Panera menu board signage. <br />The sign plans are shown in Attachment G. <br /> <br />Additionally, the car wash site plan has identified “smart signage” on the point of sale island layout <br />enlarged plan. Rocket Car Wash had indicated that they were looking to install up to four dynamic <br />displays within the drive-through area. Dynamic displays are prohibited except as allowed in <br />Section 1240.04, Menu Board Signs for Fast Food Restaurant uses. The sign code also has a <br />provision for an Applicant to seek a Sign Standard Adjustment through the PUD process, but this <br />provision specifically states it shall not be used to permit dynamic display signage. Planning Staff <br />has communicated a digital menu board would not be allowed for the car wash use under the sign <br />ordinance. The Applicant and Rocket Car Wash have stated that they are not seeking review of <br />digital signage at this time for the car wash use and intend to apply for a text amendment to expand <br />the allowance of dynamic displays for other types of drive-in businesses. If this planning case <br />were to be approved, Rocket Car Wash under current ordinance language would be required to <br />comply with Section 1240.03, Manual Changeable Message Sign. <br /> <br />G. Wall Signs – Flexibility Requested <br />The Applicant is seeking approval of the Master Sign Plan under Sign District 5 for the Subject <br />Property as part of the Final PUD. Sign District 5 encompasses all properties fronting on <br />Lexington Avenue south of Interstate 694. During the Planning Commission meeting, the <br />Applicant stated that the car wash parcel would not be owned by Launch Properties. Rather this <br />parcel would be sold to Rocket Car Wash, but remain under the terms of the Master and Final <br />PUD. Launch Properties will retain ownership of the multi-tenant parcel. Without direct road <br />frontage on Lexington Avenue, the car wash parcel would fall under Sign District 7 due to the <br />Grey Fox road frontage. The maximum wall sign copy area by district is as follows: <br />• Sign District 7 wall signage is a maximum of 45 square feet <br />• Sign District 5 wall signage is a maximum of 80 square feet <br /> <br />On the multi-tenant building, the Applicant has shown each tenant will have one wall sign on the <br />south (facing Grey Fox Road) and the corner tenant will also have one wall sign on the east (facing <br />Lexington Avenue) elevation. All of the proposed square footages for the multi-tenant building <br />are under 80 square feet and comply with the district requirements. <br />
