FINAL ORDER NO. 88- It _ PG - PAGE l
4. Site Information and Proposal Desciiptcori
The site has been developeri gi.nce 1955 with a single story veterinary
clinic. The front yard is e,itirely paved. The side yard c:onta ns a
dog run. The small vacant ;property and the Hwy. 217 right-of-w lie
to the west. Immediately in front of the building ip parking and an
access road which runs parallel to Highway 99W. A r,rassy median strip
of considerable width further separates the property from Highway 99W.
'rhe subject sign consists of white lettering on a maroon fence, which
is some 18 feet high. The fence is attached to the main buiVing at
one end and is located at the western portion of the property. The
total sign area is approximately 180 square feet, The sign is almost
totally obscured from view by a huge evergreen tree at its western edge.
The subject sign has been considered nonconforming as of March 20,
1988, and the property owner was notified of this earlier this ,year. A
voluntary compliance agreement was signed indicating the willingness on
'the part of the applicant to take some action to rectify the
nonconforming sign once the City notified him of the adoption of new
sign code regulations.
Ordinance r13-20 incorporated numerous new regulations into the sign
code. It was adopted on July 25, 1988, and became effective on August
26, 1988. The City officially notified busine9s and property owners of
the new sign code adoption in September.
The property and business owners have been cited for the following
nonconformities:
1. Oversize (area) freestanding area, a violation cf Section
18.114.130(c)(1)(B) and (C) .
2. Too high freestanding, sign/fence, a violation of Section
18.114.130(c)(1)(D) .
5. Agency and NPO Comments
The Cit,r Building_ Division has reviewed the proposal and has no
Objections to it.
No other comments were re :eived.
B. FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS
This application shall consider both a Sign Code Exception and Variance
for sign area and a Variance for fence height.
1. Sign Type
The first: question or i,,que to be resolved by the Commission is whether
the sign can be considered a freestanding sign or a wall sign. When
staff made a r'iel.d inventory of nonconforming signs last year, this
FINAL ORDER NO. 88- 14 PC - PAGE 2
sign was categorized as a frees~anding sign. Upon a more careful
analysis, however, staff has classified the sign as a wall sign. The
i��:ludes: . . ."and not attached to any
definition of a freestanding sign
building_,". because the background for the sign, namely, a fence, is
attached to the main building, staff concludes that this sign must be
considered a wall sign. The same logic was used by staff in issuing
sign permits to Stereo Superstores in order to allow the two large wall
signs on the east and west building faces of that store.
2. Sign Size
ft.). Because the
The fence area measures 15 x 18 feet (270 sq.
lettering of the sign is distributed through the upper two-thirds of
the sign only, staff concludes that the sign in question measures 15' x
12' or 180 square feet in area.
"he front wall face of the building measures approximately 51 feet by
14 feet for a total of 714 square feet. The combined total wall area
for both the front wall and fence i' equal to 894 square feet. Fifteen
percent of the entire wall area is 134.1 square feet. Staff concludes
that the sign should be considered a wall sign; however. , as such, it
cannot meet the 15 percent maximum sign area requirement.
Applicable Sign Code Exception Criteria
The applicable Sign Code Exception criteria is found in Section
18.114.145 (a)(3) which allows an increase in sign area of 25 percent.
An increase of 25 percent would, at most , allow a sign of 68 square
feet. The existing sign, which is 12.5 square feet larger, represents
a 34 percent increase over the standard 15 perceit allotment for wall
signs.. Since both the sign and the building were erected long before
thip provision was in effect , the Comhlission may conclude that it is
not unreasonable to grant the 34 percent additional increase in sign
area now. However, a variance to 25 percent limit must also be granted.
4. Variances Fot Fence Height and Sign Size
Criteria for reviewing the variances are contained ii code Section
18.134.050. They are as follows:
The Director shall approve, approve with conditions or deny an
application for a variance based on finding that the foilowing criteria
n.re satisfied:
(1) The proposed varianre will not be materially eetrimental to the
purposes of the Code, be in conflict with tb, policies of the
Comprehensive Plan, to any other arplicable policies and
standards; and to other properties in the same zoning district or
vicinity.
(2) There are special circumstances that exist which are peculiar to
the lot size or shape, topogr,�phy or other circumstances over
which the applicant has no control, and which are not applicable
to other properties in the same zoning district;
F 1 NAT, ORDER Nn. HH- 14--- PC - 'PAGE 3
( 3) The use proposed will be the same as permitted under this Code
and City standards will he maintained to the greatest extent that
is reasonably possible, while permitting some economic use of the
land;
(4) Existing physical and natural systems, such as but not limited to
traffic, drainage, dramatic land forms or parks will not be
adversely affected any more than would occur if the development
were locate3 as specified in the Code; and
(5) The hardship is not self-imposed and the variance requested is
the minimum variance which would alleviate the hardship.
The proposed variance to fence height will not be materially
detrimental to the Code, the Comprehensive Plan, to other policies and
standards or to the adjacent property. The extreme lieight of the fence
no longer serves its originally intended purpose as a screen. Existing
natural and physical systems will not be adversely affected.
The applicant has pointed out that the fence was erected to shield the
animal runs and blackberry bushes from view. In the meantime, the
evergreen trees and blackberry Lushes have grown to shield the sign as
well. A field visit revealed that :he top of Lhe dog runs is not .such
higher than ground level.
Although the fence is nor:�onforming, the Commisrion sees no immediate
benefit in reducing its height. Indeed, the only reason the fence is
being questioned is because it serves as a backdrop to the sign
lettering. The sign does not really serve adequately as a sign because
it is so far set back from the public right-of-way and because it is
obscured by trees and bushes.
Relocation of the sign as a freestanding sign also is n(;t possible. It
would not be permissible to erect the sign either on the state
right-of-way median strip or directly in front of the building because
of interference with parking. Under the provisions of the recently
adopted sign ;ode, the parcel would be entitled to a freeway-oriented
sign; however, neither the Commission not the applicant find thiq
desirable. S'aff does not want to recommend remcval of the tree nor
would removal of the blackberry bushes do mu,.h for th public good.
Therefore, the only alternatives that the Commission sees are either:
1) reduction of the fence height to a maximum of 8 feet as allowed by
the Code, and relocation of the signage to the front wall of the
building, or 2) reduce the sign size in its present location to meet
Code standards or Section 18. 114. 145(x)(3) and retain Lhe present fence
height, or 3) allow the applicant to retain the sign and fence as is,
provided the applicant obta.ns a sign permit and the use of the
property remains the same. The Commission prefers the third
alternative.
