Minutes Planning Commission May 14, 1986 Commissioner Hoyt was very much against individual signs and could not recommend approval of a 32' long sign for Subaru. Commissioner Berger also felt the Subaru sign to be quite large. Chairman Lindsey regarding the Trammell Crow signing, felt they were very attractive and had no problem with three tenant signs with 20" high letters, but would like to see some limitation on the project regarding a pole sign. With regard to BMW, he liked the pylon sign and felt it was attractive, neat and clean. He also felt directional signs are appropriate. With regard to Val Strough, he could support one pylon sign 24' for four auto dealers on that one sign. He couldn't support four separate signs as that would be to oversign the property. Commissioner Innes stated that the applicants and staff have been trying to find a compromise that would meet everybody's needs. He was concerned that if BMW received their sign approval, Val Strough had a couple of signs and Trammell Crow sells more land there would be a sign proliferation. He stated he agreed with Mr. Inderbitzen that the pylon sign looked good but expressed concern abut sign proliferation. He would prefer to have one pylon in a prominent place on the Val Strough site and keep signs on the walls for the individual dealerships. He disagreed three tenant names on the Rose Pavilion sign would be appropriate, but if Mr. Schnugg feels they will not come in with another major sign application, he could support it. Chairman Lindsey addressed staff asking about the Val Strough sign situation. Mr. Swift indicated that staff would prefer to see Val Strough come back in with drawings depicting the recommendations of the Commission for their consideration as opposed to approving the sign programming tonight with modifications. The public hearing was closed. A motion was made by Commissioner Innes, seconded by Commissioner Wellman that Val Strough be continued so that they may work with the staff on a new proposed signing program. This motion carried 5-0. A motion was made by Commissioner Innes, seconded by Commissioners Wellman that the Signs for Trammell Crow be approved as follows: 1. One 34' high 'Rosewood Pavilion' sign along the freeway frontage which includes up to 3 anchor tenant names, with additional berming at the base to reduce the height of the sign while reducing the size of the structure. 2. Two 'Rosewood Pavilion' signs to be located in the northwest and southwest corners of the intersection of Rosewood Avenue and Santa Rita Road. 3. One 'retail' pavilion monument sign with no tenant identification. - 5 - _1._
