<br />Commissioner McGuirk agrees to the conversion of ten parking spaces into a landscaped <br />area. Regarding the discussion about the column size, he will defer to the decision of the <br />designers. He does not feel the reveals are necessary, and the proposed red color is <br />acceptable. Commissioner McGuirk proposes removing the "Metro 580" name from the <br />pylon sign's top ornamental piece. He agrees with reducing the overall height of the sign, <br />although he was unsure how that would impact the visibility of the lower signs. <br />Commissioner McGuirk supports this application. <br /> <br />Chairman Wright noted reservations regarding the proposed signage program, although he <br />will concur with the other Commissioners. He does not want the company logos to be larger <br />than the sign lettering and feels a comprehensive signage program should be instituted for <br />this project. Furthermore, he would prefer the use of logos on the pylon sign and no logos <br />be incorporated in the building signs. Chairman Wright concurs with Commissioner <br />Hovingh regarding the elimination of the Metro 580 on top of the pylon sign as well as <br />reducing its height to 30 feet. He also concurs with Commissioner McGuirk with keeping <br />the columns and facia as designed. Chairman Wright feels the construction hours of 8 a.m. <br />to 5 p.m. are too restrictive and would prefer to change the hours to 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. He <br />would also like to incorporate into Condition 5d that all traffic lanes have red painted curbs. <br /> <br />Regarding Conditions 5e and 21 and cart collection areas, Mr. Swift advised Condition 5e <br />could be deleted. <br /> <br />Commissioner Lutz supports the project as described. <br /> <br />Commissioner Barker agrees to the 30 foot height maximum and keeping the Metro 580 logo <br />on the pylon sign. She will also defer to the architect's color choices. Commissioner Barker <br />does not oppose the use of logos on the rear wall sign age. <br /> <br />A discussion ensued regarding the use of logos, their size, and where they should be placed, <br />with all Commissioners having a slightly different view of what should be utilized. <br />Commissioners McGuirk and Barker and Chairman Wright feel the Metro 580 logo should <br />remain on the pylon sign and five feet of height be removed from the bottom of the sign. <br /> <br />A motion was made by Commissioner McGuirk, seconded by Commissioner Hovingh, <br />recommending approval of Case PUD-85-8-7D subject to the conditions listed in Exhibit <br />B with the following modifications: <br /> <br />Remove the 580 Metro logo from the pylon sign, maximum height to be 30 feet <br />and maximum width to be 14 feet. <br /> <br />Six tenant names (including Wal-Mart) shall be allowed on the pylon sign. <br /> <br />Sign placement on the rear wall to be as symmetrical as possible taking into <br />consideration the proposed landscaping. <br /> <br />Planning Commission Minutes <br /> <br />Page 5 <br /> <br />November 9, 1994 <br /> <br />- <br />
