Some canopies are free standing while other, because of proximity to <br />principal structure, considered an integral component of the structure. In all cases, the <br />additional signage was approved — most via department review/sign permit issuance, <br />while one was approved as a condition of a Planned Unit Development. These sites <br />include the SuperAmerica on Hamline Avenue, the SuperAmerica at Lexington Avenue <br />and County Road B, the Shell station at Dale Street and County Road B, and the BP <br />Amoco at Fairview Avenue and County Road B2. The Building Official did compile a <br />review of canopy signage for all fuel canopies within Roseville — attached are the <br />findings. <br />5.0 REVIEW OF PROPOSAL: <br />5.1 The proposal by Speedway SuperAmerica to add signage to the fuel canopy is permitted <br />under Section 1009.08 of the City Code, as interpreted by the City Planner. Specifically, <br />a building's signage (including an attached/detached fuel canopy) is limited to its <br />frontage calculation, which is determined by calculating the square footage of the <br />building front (that which faces a street — main entry) and assigning either a percentage <br />(7% or 10%) or a size limitation (150 sq. ft. or 200 sq. ft.). <br />5.2 The City Planner has determined that the B-2, Retail Business District affords the <br />site/structure at 2295 Rice Street up to 150 sq. ft. of building signage. <br />5.3 The existing signage at 2295 Rice Street includes a 24 sq. ft. sign/reader board, a 42 sq. <br />ft. SuperAmerica sign, and a 5 sq. ft. car wash sign for an existing total of 71 sy. ft. The <br />proposal to install/add 2- 38 sq. ft. illuminated SuperAmerica signs (east and north sides <br />of the upper fuel canopy) would bring the total signage for the site to 147 sq. ft. which is <br />below the maximum 150 sq. ft. allowed in the B-2 District. <br />PF37011 RPCA 030106.doc Page 2 of 4 <br />
