PLADZItG RBPOaT DATE: 12 August 1992 CASE NUMBER: 2229 APPLICANT: Concordia Academy LOCATION: Co. Rd. B & Dale Street ACTION REQUESTED: PUD Amendment 1. BACKGROUND Concordia Academy and Rottlund Homes have an approved Planned unit Development for their projects at County RoadB and Dale Street. Rottlund is completing its townhouse units and Concordia is constructing an addition to the school. An entry sign for Concordia was shown on the PUD Landscape Plan at the corner of Dale Street and new Lovell Avenue, as illustrated on the attached sketch. When that drawing was submitted, however, the ballfields in this location were to remain part of Concordia property. In subsequent negotiations over park dedication fees, Concordia dedicated the property around the fields to the city. This would have put the Concordia sign on ci ty property. To correct this, Concordia retained ownership of a small corner of property at this intersection (see attached survey map). Because this creates a new parcel and property line, the PUD needs to be amended to reflect this. 2 . DEVELOPMENT SUMMARY The Concordia sign is proposed to be a double-faced, lighted ground sign, 6' wide and 4-1/2' high on a 1-1/2' high base, as described and illustrated on the attached materials from the sign company. It will be located on the small triangular-shaped parcel at the northeast corner of Dale Street and Lovell Avenue. The sign will be set back 15' from each street frontage, leaving a 30' triangle for visibility at the street intersection. The proposed sign meets the size and setback standards in the Code. 3. CONCLUSION The Concordia ground sign meets the City's minimum standards for signage and visibility and is a reasonable modification to the overall PUD plan. We recommend approval of the PUD amendment.
