An existing 10 foot high by 12 foot wide ground sign identifying the building (Roseville West) is located along the southern property line. The proposed five foot high by five foot wide ground sign for the Minnesota Department of Public Service - Weights and Measures would be located near the intersection of Fulham Street and the Highway 36 West frontage road. The proposed location of the sign would also require a front yard setback variance to reduce the setback to less than five feet. RCA (PF2924) - 08/25/97 - Page 1 of 4
