A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF ARROYO GRANDE APPROVING PLANNED SIGN
PROGRAM 02-001, AMENDING THE VILLAGE CENTRE
PLANNED SIGN PROGRAM REGARDING PRUDENTIAL
HUNTER REALTY SIGNS, APPLIED FOR BY PRUDENTIAL
HUNTER REALTY, LOCATED AT THE INTERSECTION OF
WEST BRANCH AND WESLEY STREETS
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Arroyo Grande has considered
Planned Sign Program 02-001 to amend the Village Centre Planned Sign Program,
filed by Prudential Hunter Realty, to replace existing signage with two (2) new wall
signs; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has held a duly noticed public hearing on this
application in accordance with the City Code; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has reviewed and considered the information
and public testimony presented at the public hearings, the staff report and other
information and documents that are part of the public record; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has reviewed this project in compliance with
the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the project
is categorically exempt per CEQA Guidelines Section 1531 1(a); and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission finds, after due study, deliberation and public
hearing, that the following circumstances exist:
1. The proposed signage has been reviewed by the Architectural Review
Committee and was found to be consistent with the Design Guidelines for
Historic Districts (D-2.4) which apply to the project site. .-
2. The number, size and material of the proposed signage conforms to
applicable development standards. There is nothing in the design or
construction of the signs that will be detrimental to the public health,
safety or welfare.
3. The location of the trellis structure sign is similar to the existing Blakeslee
& Blakeslee sign and would accurately depict the location of the entrance
to the Prudential Hunter Realty office and is therefore compatible with the
surrounding neighborhood. There is nothing in the design or construction
of either sign that would pose a safety risk.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission of the City of
Arroyo Grande hereby approves Planned Sign Program 02-001, amending the Village
Centre Planned Sign Program, with the above findings and subject to the conditions
as set forth in Exhibit "A", attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
