DPZA ETAILEDROPOSAL AND ONINGNALYSIS 1 Spire Credit Union seeks the installation of two signs noting their new facility will be coming in 2 2015. The Sign Regulations chapter of the Zoning Ordinance could consider the signs as 3 temporary, for which the proposed duration by the applicant is not consistent (more than the 60 4 days permitted). 5 The Planning Division, however, has concluded that the sign is more in keeping with a 6 Construction Sign, as defined below 7 Construction Sign: Any non-illuminated sign that displays information regarding the 8 construction or development of the site on which it is displayed. 9 §1010.02.A.2, which is where such signs are regulated, which reads: 10 City Code §1010.02.A.2 (Construction Signs) states the following: 11 2. Construction Signs: Construction signs shall be confined to the site of construction, 12 alteration, or repair and shall be constructed of high-quality material maintained in good 13 repair. No more than one sign is permitted on each street frontage the project abuts. The sign 14 shall be removed within 180 days of the date of the issuance of a building permit for the 15 work. A conditional use permit is required for a contractor sign to remain in place longer 16 than allowed by this subsection. Construction signs are allowed in zoning districts in 17 accordance with the following criteria: 18 19 Table 1010-3 Construction Signs ZoningSize Height Placement/Setback District LDR1 &LDR2 16 square feet 8 foot maximum 5 feet from property line/zero if attached to security fence All other 32 square feet per 12 foot maximum 5 feet from property line/zero if Districtsstreet frontage attached to security fence The proposal by Spire seeks the installation of the construction sign well before the City would 20 issue a building permit, which the Planning Division determined was the main factor in requiring 21 the Interim Use versus the Conditional Use. The Spire proposal further seeks the two 32 sq. ft. 22 signs in the front yard of their parcel at 1880 Perimeter Drive, and the signs are to be setback 23 more than the minimum 5 feet required under Table 1010-3. 24 RIUA EVIEW OF NTERIMSEPPLICATION 25 Section 1009.03 of the City Code establishes the regulations pertaining to . 26 INTERIM USES The purpose statement for this section indicates the following: Certain land uses might not 27 be consistent with the land uses designated in the Comprehensive Land Use Plan, and they 28 might also fail to meet all of the zoning standards established for the district within which 29 they are proposed; some such land uses may, however, be acceptable or even beneficial if 30 reviewed and provisionally approved for a limited period of time. The purpose of the interim 31 use review process is to allow the approval of interim uses on a case-by-case basis; 32 approved interim uses shall have a definite end date and may be subject to specific 33 PF14-020_RPCA_100814 Page 2 of 4
