As a Prominent aspect of the scenery, they either attract or repel the viewing public, . and may affect the safety of vehicular and pedestrian traffic. Their suitability and appropriateness helps define the character of a neighborhood and the larger community. The purpose of this Ctiapter is to regulate signs in a manner that will benefit the pubfic and maintain a high quality of development throughout the City. The regulations contained herein are intended to: � 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Direct persons to various activities and enterp�ises, in order to provide for the maximum public convenience; Provide a reasonable system of reguiations for signs in order to ensure the development of a high quality visual environment; Encourage signs that are well designed and pleasing in appearance, recognizing that a well designed sign enhances a business's image and economic vitality; Provide incentive and latitude for variety, good design relationships, and spacing of signs; Encourage a desirable urban character that has a minimum of overhead cfutter; 6. Enhance the economic value of the community and each area thereof through the regulation of such things as size, number, location design and illumination of signs; 7. S. 9. 10. Encourage signs that are compatible with adjacent land uses and that provide pedestrian-scale atmosphere; Reduce possible traffic and safety hazards through good signage; Ensure the maintenance of signs; and . Implement the comrnunity design goals, objectives, policies, and programs of the General Pfan, Design Guidelines for Historic Districts, and other applicable City guidelines and ordinances. This Chapter establishes the legal framework for a comp�ehensive system for the regulation of signs. It presents a set of reasonable, non-arbitrary, and non-discriminatory - standards and controls, that are designed to optimize communication between the ci�izens and their environment, to facilitate the protection not only of the public, but the aesthetic character of the City, and to ensure the availability to the community of adequate, high quality signs. Sectian 9 Administration Unless expressly exempted in this Chapter, no sign may be erected, displayed, reconstructed, or altered until a permit is approved as set forth in Sections 9-03.140, 9-03.145, 9-03.150, or 9-03.155 of this Title and a building permit has been issued or Building Department clearance has besn received. • I -- � The four separate methods of planning review are established for the following reasons: 1. � 3 To provide a means of review appropriate to the magnitude of the proposed signage; To recognize the planned character of large or multi-tenant centers; To provide a means of flexible application of the sign regulations so as to encourage maximum incentive and ►atitude in the design and display of signs in order to achieve, not circumvent, the intent of this Chapter. A. Planned Sign Program Planned Sign Programs shall be processed in accordance with Section 9-03.150 of this Title. A Planned Sign Program shall be required for the following: 2. 3. The purpose of a Planned Sign Program shall be to integrate signs with building and landscape design into a unified architectural unit, and to ensure the magnitude of the proposed signs is consistent with existing and proposed bui(dings and the character of the area within which the signs are proposed. This shall be achieved by: Multi-tenant developments of nine (9) or more separate, permitted uses, that share either the same legal parcel or building and use common access and parking facilities. Projects or developments with a total aggregate sign area exceeding one hundred fifty (150) square feet. Ground signs between twenty (20) and fifty (50) feet high. 4. Two (2) or more contiguous legal parcels may be combined fo� purposes of calculating sign area and number, with the permission of. the property and business owners and at the written request of the sign applicants. 1. Requiring that sign colors be generally compatible with building color; 2. Using the same type of cabinet supports o� method of mounting fo� signs of the same type; by using the same type of construction material for components, such as sign copy, cabinets, and supports; or by using dissimilar signing that is determined by the approval authority to be compatible; 3. C!I Using the same form of illumination for all signs, or by using varied forms of illumination that have besn determined by the approval authority to be compatible; and " Requiring that signs not over-power buildings, and be of appropriate scale and character with existing signs in the general area.

Administrative Sign Permits shall be processed in accordance with Section 9-03.140 of this Title. D. Mural Permit All rnurals shall receive approval of a mural permit in accordance with Section 9-03.155 of this Title. Murais are not considered signs and shall not incfude the name, logo, or other representation that advertises a business, product, service or other commercial activity. Murals are considered a means to enhance the architecture or aesthetics of a. building or wall and not a form of advertisement. If a mural is p�oposed that contains adve�tising materials, it shall be treated as a sign and reviewed pursuant to subsections A, B, or C above and shall. comply with Table 9-13.060A. The mural permit process allows City review of murals to ensure that size, location, and placement is cansistent with the character of the district within which it is located; the character of the building or wall upon which it is placed; and that the mural is not detrimental to the pubfic health, safety, or welfare. Section 9 General Provisions Unless exempt by Section 9-13.050, off-site signs shall not be allowed. Signs may be erected, aitered and maintained only for those uses permitted in the zone in which they are located. Signs shall be located on the same legal parcel as the permitted use and shall be cleariy incidental, customary and commonly assoc�ated with the operation of the permitted use. For the purposes of this Chapter, a shopping center shall be considered a single parcel regardless of whether the center is comprised of more than one legal parcel. A. � Determining the Number of Signs Projects or developments with a total aggregate sign area exceeding one hundred (100) square feet but less than one hundred fifty (150) square feet. Ground signs between eight (8) and twenty (20) feet high. Minor tenant signs in older multi tenant developments (regardless of the number of tenants) without an established sign program. For the pu�pose of determining the number of signs, a sign shall be considered to be a single display surface or display device containing sign faces physically connected and having a coterminous boundary, with the following exception: combination canopy and under-canopy signs shall be considered as one sign. 2. A two-sided or multi-sided sign shall be regarded as one sign subject to the following: Double-#aced (bacic to-back) signs shall be regarded as a single sign only if the distance between the backs of each face of the sign does not exceed two (2) feet. - Computation of Sign Surtace Area and Height . A"V-type" sign shall be regarded as a single sign only if the two sides are separated by no more than three (3} feet at any point. � � �- All Signs Excspt Awning Signs a. The surface area of a sign shall be the totai number of squa�e feet . calculated by enclosing the extreme limits of the writing, logo, representation, emblem, or � other display, together. with any frame, background area, . structural trim, or other material or color forming an . integral part of the background of the display or used to differentiate the sign from the backdrop or surface against which it is placed, within a single continuous pe�imeter composed of circles, squares, or rectangles. The surface area of spherical signs shall be the actual sign surface area calculated by the following formula: Area = 12.56 x rz where r= radius of the sphere. See Figure 9-13.030-A for an illustration of how surface area is calculated. Notwithstanding Figure 9-13.030-A, the Community Development Director may allow an inc�ease in sign area in rough p�oportion to the open area in a sign not comprised of squares or rectangles. b. Supporting framework or bracing that is cleariy incidental to the display itseif shall not be included as sign surface area. c. If the sign consists of more than one section or moduie, all of the area, including the area between the sections of modules, shall be included in the computation of sign surface area. Sections or modules must touch one another to count as one sign. d. For multi-sided signs, the sign su�face area shall be computed by including the total area of all sides designed to attract attention or communicate information. e. For two-sided signs, the sign surface area shall be computed by including the total area of, only one side, provided that double-#aced (bacic to bacic) signs have a distance of two (2) feet or less between the bacics of each face; or provided that faces of "V-type" signs are separated by no more than three (3) feet at any point . 2. Awning or Canopy Signs a. . The sign surface area of a canopy or awning sign shall be calculated by enclosing the extreme limits of the writing, logo, representation, emblem, . or other display within a single continuous perimeter composed of circles, squares, or rectangles. b. If more than one surface of the awning or canopy is utilized for signage or if an under-canopy sign is attached to the main canopy, the aggregate sign area shall be calculated by totaling the surface area of each surface. 3. Height of Signs The height of a sign shall be determined by measuring the distance from the average adjacent �ground level within five (5) feet of the base of the sign to the top of the sign.
