232 <br /> <br /> Mayor Tarver asked if the Saturn logo could be placed on a <br /> monument type sign <br /> <br /> Mr. Rich said that a monument sign would be too low. <br /> <br /> There being no further testimony, Mr. Tarvet declared the <br /> public hearing closed. <br /> <br /> Ms. Mohr commented that each of the other car dealerships have <br /> a similar pylon sign and this application seemed consistent with <br /> what already exists in that area. <br /> <br /> Ms. Scribner believed that this application is acceptable <br /> under the rules that are currently being used and is consistent <br /> with what has already been approved and exists. She did not <br /> believe that Council should do anything else but deny the appeal <br /> until the Sign Ordinance could be reviewed and/or changed. <br /> <br /> Mr. Pico felt that the existing signs are in proximity to the <br /> freeway and are readily visible from the freeway. This proposed <br /> sign will be considerably further down Rosewood Drive next to the <br /> shopping center. He felt that this sign would not be consistent <br /> with the shopping center signs and would not be visible from the <br /> freeway. <br /> <br /> Mayor Tarver believed that this sign was not the same as those <br /> along the freeway frontage. He was concerned that other businesses <br /> in the shopping center would request a similar sign. He agreed <br /> that perhaps the Sign Ordinance needed to be revisited. This sign <br /> request was going beyond what is appropriate for freeway signage <br /> for pylon signs. Mayor Tarver hoped that the Sign Ordinance would <br /> soon be reviewed. <br /> <br /> Ms. Mohr asked that staff report back to Council regarding <br /> reviewing the Sign Ordinance. <br /> <br /> Ms. Acosta agreed, now that there is a majority support on the <br /> Council to do so. <br /> <br /> It was moved by Ms. Mohr, and seconded by Ms. Scribner, to <br /> deny the appeal by City Council, and approve the installation of an <br /> individually illuminated lettered wall-mounted sign and a 17' high <br /> pylon sign for the Saturn automobile dealership to be located at <br /> 4340 Rosewood Drive. <br /> <br /> The roll call vote was as follows: <br /> AYES: Councilmembers Mohr and Scribner <br /> NOES: Councilmember Pico and Mayor Tarver <br /> ABSENT: None <br /> ABSTAIN: None <br /> <br /> 12/15/92 6 <br /> <br /> <br />
