<br />Mel Renner 9/24/91 <br /> <br />Page 2 <br /> <br />2) Prôpose a pylon sign that meets the setback standards. This could be done in two <br />ways: <br /> <br />a) A pylon sign more or less in the middle of the site in front of the building <br />that is taller and thinner than your original proposal- as I had sketched out and <br />sent to you last week. You indicated this did not fit with the overall Norwest logo <br />format and you would probably not pursue this option. <br /> <br />b) A pylon sign in your preferred format beyond either the north or south edges of <br />the building, where it could meet the 30-foot front setback. As we discussed, this <br />would probably mean some loss of visibility from either the north or south due to <br />trees or adjacent signs. <br /> <br />3) Additional wall signage in lieu of a pylon sign. This would require a variance as well, <br />but it may be a variance the Commission and Council can accept. In fact, some of the <br />Planning Commissioners seemed to be suggesting this solution. Since a pylon would have <br />two faces, each of 100 square feet facing opposite directions, it would be reasonable to <br />propose signage of 100 square feet on each of the north and south faces of the building <br />(equivalent to a pylon sign split in two and placed on the building), and 106.5 square feet <br />on the front of the building (the permitted wall signage). <br /> <br />This is the solution that we proposed some months ago to Mr. Norton and Mr. Seeger, but <br />they decided to try for the pylon sign variance instead. I would support this wall signage <br />approach, should you wish to propose it. <br /> <br />Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />DAHLGREN, SHARD LOW, AND UBAN, INe. <br /> <br />Philip Carlson, AICP <br />Senior Planner <br />for the RoseviÌle Community Development Department <br /> <br />cc: Robert Seeger <br />Larry Norton <br />Rick Jopke ./ <br />
