REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION DATE: 04/10/06 ITEM NO: 3.g Department Approval: City Manag Approval Agenda Section: TP/DPW ,��,� �C=�� CONSENT Item Description: Request by Speedway SuperAmerica for an AMENDMENT to an existing CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT at 2295 Rice Street, to allow the installation of signage on to the fuel canopy (PF3711). 1.0 BACKGROUND: 1.1 Lawrence Sign and Speedway SuperAmerica (SA) propose a sign on the canopy of the SA store located at 2295 Rice Street. The conditional use permit originally issued in 1996 did not mention signage on the canopy. Staff and applicants have verified the size of the proposed canopy signs; the amount of existing signage on the building; and the total amount of signage allowed on the structure by City Code. 1.2 The signs (2) as proposed are 41.56 sq. ft or 83 sq. ft., which amount would be added to the existing signage of 113 sq. ft. (car wash — 45 sq. ft., wall/reader board — 24 sq. ft., and wall sign — 44 sq. ft.) for a grand total of 196 sq. ft. The property is zoned B-2, Retail Business District. This zoning designation allows wall signage at 10% of the size of the front (entry) building wall or 200 sq. ft. whichever is greater. In the case of this structure the 200 sq. ft. is the greater allowance. (Other Roseville SA convenience\fuel stores have similar configurations of signage on the canopy.) 1.3 The Conditional use permit request is to allow two 41.56 sq. ft. signs to be added; one to the east side and one to the north side of the fuel canopy; with total signage not to exceed a maximum of 200 sq. ft. of wall signage. With existing signage at 113 sq. ft., the additional 83 sq. ft. brings the proposed total to 196 sq. ft. 2.0 SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDATIONS: 2.1 The Community Development Staff recommends approval of the request by Speedway SuperAmerica for an AMENDED CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT allowing fuel canopy signage at 2295 Rice Street, subject to conditions. 2.2 At the March 1 st Planning Commission meeting, the Commission recommended approval, then reviewed an update at the April 5`" meeting and concurred with the staff recommendation 3.0 SUGGESTED COUNCIL ACTION: 3.1 BY RESOLUTION approve of a CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT for Speedway SuperAmerica subject to the following revised conditions:
