Response: The logo on the canopy has been resized to meet city code. If is understood that
signage is not approved with the approval of this planning set and a separate submittal for
signage is required.

[5/15/08] The monument sign is not allowed to be in the ROW per Section 24-1 of the Municipal
Code. The sign must be on private property.
[3/25/08] Both of the monument signs appear to be in the ROW once the additional ROW is
dedicated. They have to be on private property. Additionally, Sec. 3.8.7(G) (2) requires that a
ground sign has to be at least 15' from an interior side lot line. If the facility is addressed off
Elizabeth, then the south lot line is the rear lot line and the Taft Hill sign meets this requirement, but
the Elizabeth sign is then closer than 15' to the west lot line, which becomes the side lot line. If the
address is off Taft Hill, then the opposite is true (the Elizabeth sign is ok, but the Taft sign isn't.
Response: The monument signage has been removed.

[5/15/08] The logo sign shown on the north elevation of the canopy is still 33" tall, when only 30" is
allowed.
[3/25/08] Per Section 3.8.7(E) (13), only 2 signs are tillowed on the canopy, one on the east fascia
and one on the north fascia. The plan shows 4 such signs, one on each fascia. The south and
west signs need to be removed. Per Section 3.8.7(E) (8), the maximum allowed height of logo and
cabinet signs is 30", the plan indicates that the logos on the canopy are 33" tall. Also, the maximum
size allowed for the one canopy sign on the north fascia is 12 sq.ft. (Sec. 3.8.7(E) (13), but the
logo and letters combined is more than 18 square feet (the logo can't be considered as one sign
and the letters as another, because then there would be two signs when only one is allowed. So
as one sign, it can't exceed 12 sq.ft.
