Based on a preliminmy review of their wall and monument sign <br />proposal, no special permits will be needed becausc the new signagc will not exceed the sign area or <br />dimensions of the old signage (a regular sign permit will still be required for eacb sign that is visible <br />ti.om the public right-ot~way or neighboring properties). However, Boston Scientific is considering <br />changing the dimcnsions and possibly the color ofthe signagc on thcir water tower. <br /> <br />Discussion <br /> <br />In October 200 I, the City approved a sign variance lor Guidant to put their company name/logo on <br />the water tower at their campus (PC# 01-25). According to the documents fi'om that approval, it <br />appears that the proposed dimensions for the <'<'Guidant" name was 2 feet by 31.5 feet, and the name <br />would appear in thosc dimensions on the east and west sides ofthc water tower. When Planning <br />Case 01-25 was approved for the water tower signage, the following two conditions were included: <br />I. The color of the letters on thc water tower being painted black, and the towcr being non- <br />illuminated. <br />2. The exterior appearance of the water towcr being maintained. <br /> <br />If thc new signage lor thc water tower is deemed signilicantly different from the signage approved in <br />PC!! 01-25, a new site plan review lor thc signage may be required. Staff is requcsting the City <br />Council to review the Boston Scientific proposal and determine if a new site plan review is required <br />or if the new signage is within the Spilit of the previously approved sign variance. <br /> <br />Should Boston Scientific decide to submit a sign proposal that docs not exceed the area and <br />dimensions of the existing water tower signage and meets the conditions of Planning Case 01-25, the <br />Sign Code would only require a sign permit lor replacing thc sign copy. <br /> <br />The Planning Commission informally reviewed the proposal fi.om Boston Scientific and eame to a <br /> <br />City of Arden Hills <br />CiO' Counei/lvleetingjor September 6. ]006 <br /> <br />\\;\1elro-inel_lIs\ardenllillsIPlannillg\Planning CommiSSlon\Nc\v-Old Business'2006\090706 - BosScie water tower signage.doc <br /> <br />Page 1 of 2 <br />
