6. PUBLIC HEARINGS AND OTHER MATTERS <br /> <br />a. P11-0065 and P11-0066, Robert Abbott and Chevron <br />Applications for Design Review approval and Sign Design Review <br />approval to change the existing building and canopy colors and to <br />modify the sign program for the building, canopy, and monument signs <br />for the Chevron Extra Mile (former Bernal Corners) service station <br />located on 1875 Valley Avenue. Zoning for the property is PUDC <br />(Planned Unit Development Commercial) District. <br /> <br />Marion Pavan presented the staff report and described the scope, layout, and key <br />elements of the proposal. <br /> <br />Referring to the monument sign, Chair Narum inquired if Chevron is asking to change <br />only the Chevron sign and if the brick and the height will remain. <br /> <br />Mr. Pavan replied that only the panel of the monument signs will be changed at both the <br />Bernal Avenue and Valley Avenue entrances. He confirmed that the brick and height <br />will remain as is. <br /> <br />Commissioner Blank inquired if staff supports the increase in height of the sign Chevron <br />wanted to increase to seven feet. <br /> <br />Mr. Pavan said no. <br /> <br />Commissioner Olson stated that he drove through the site and noted that the changes <br />have already been made. He added that the Chevron logo is there and that he thinks it <br />looks fine. <br /> <br />Mr. Pavan replied that it is a flat panel sign and that the applicant would like a sign <br />which would provide the relief achieved by the Jack in the Box sign. He added that <br />Chevron was granted an emergency approval to rename the sign from Shell to <br />Chevron. <br /> <br />Commissioner Pearce requested clarification that the applicant is not proposing to <br />include additional information on the monument price sign and just wants to make the <br />sign bigger. <br /> <br />Mr. Pavan replied that the request is for a taller sign only, with no changes to the price <br />sign. <br /> <br />Chair Narum noted that Condition No. 6 of the ordinance approving the PUD limits site <br />signage shall to one seven-foot tall monument identification sign at the street corner and <br />one price sign at each entrance. She inquired if there is currently a seven-foot tall sign <br />at the site. <br /> <br />PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, August 10, 2011 Page 3 of 15 <br /> <br />
