Brentwood Town Offices should be allowed visible signage. Facade <br />signage would be more difficult to see than a ground sign. The existing trees <br />block a clear view of a facade or monument sign at the required setback. <br />Additionally, the site's grade at the optimal sign location slopes east toward the <br />parking lot adding to the visibility problems. Another factor staff has considered <br />is the amount of boulevard along Lexington Avenue. Currently, the east side of <br />Lexington A venue has a boulevard from curb to property line of approximately 33 <br />feet. <br /> <br />Page 1 of2 <br />
