Item 5.5 • Item # 5.5. Ctyof Elk -�-� River MEMORANDUM TO: Planning Commission FROM: Scott Harlicker, Senior Planne 4 DATE: April 23, 2002 SUBJECT: Case No. CU 02-07 Request by North Memorial Health Care for Amendment to a Conditional Use Permit For Signage Request Consider a request by North Memorial Health Care for an amendment to the conditional use 111 permit for Elk River Plaza 4`h Addition to allow two additional wall signs. Location 800 Freeport Avenue; Lots 3 and 4, Block 2, Elk River Plaza 4th Addition Zoning/Land Use PUD (Planned Unit Development) / HB (Highway Business) Attachments • Location map • Building elevation with proposed signs and existing sign Overview Background The applicant is requesting a conditional use permit to allow two additional wall signs.They would like to place one wall sign on the side of the building facing Highway 169 and a second wall sign on the side of the building facing Freeport Avenue.There is an existing wall sign on the south side of the building. On August 24, 2000 the applicant was issued a sign IP Memo to Planning Commission/CU 02-07 April 23,2002 Page 2 permit for a 9.75 square foot wall sign that reads"URGENT CARE".This is the only wall III sign on the building. In June 1999 the City Council approved a conditional use permit for the medical building.At that time only the urgent care wall signage was proposed for the building.The applicant also has space on the existing freestanding signs.They are seeking to amend the PUD Agreement for Elk River Plaza to allow the two additional signs.The proposed sign facing Highway 169 is 2'6" tall by 20'long (50 sf.). It is an internally illuminated box sign that reads "North Memorial Health Plaza Urgent Care" The proposed sign facing Freeport Avenue will be internally illuminated individual letters 24" tall and 36'long (72 sf.) and reads "Elk River Physicians".The total wall signage,including the existing sign and the two proposed signs,is 131 square feet. Analysis For comparison,the wall sign requirement for the C3 (Highway Commercial District)is up to 3 signs totaling 2 square feet of wall signage for every foot of linear building frontage. This building has 180 linear feet of building frontage,which would permit 300 square feet of wall signage if the property were zoned C3. Staff agrees with the applicant that a sign on the side of the building facing Highway 169 is needed to identify the business from Highway 169. • The sign on the side of the building facing Freeport Avenue is proposed to be internally illuminated individual letters. Staff questions the need for the sign facing Freeport Avenue. There is the existing Urgent Care sign on the south side of the building and North Memorial has space on the plaza entrance sign near the north side of the building. At a minimum, because the sign faces single family residences, the sign should not be lighted. Recommendation Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend approval of the conditional use permit for a wall sign on the side of the building facing Highway 169 and denial of the wall sign facing Freeport Avenue. • S:\PLANNING\Case Files\CU 02-07 North Memorial\Item.doc ELEME TRY oMI \ 3 . - SCH 0 L w D-,ivE `l' III ELK L 1 1 1 5 1 0. .A O.L.B� �, 1 1 2 1 ,� ill 3 2 ©11 8 6 1J 11 ill �. 1 IS RE T8 �� ' �► TH 6 ST. �� 6 4 'I' IIIIIIIIII9 -�� 4 `' SITE '' 4111.11,10 43 OOw ��,tIIVI- - mu , 1111LII' 41 0111 6y0 = 2��I= \1 G � 0 2 WE 1Cn �• 111111120 p v� i -.40 SEEM 6 19# Ally Cc\ 2 Ili 1$1 1111 1 NW 'io . • B T. 6 24 4 11 2 1 4 1 Al5 ' r W , ..„, D Z $T" EET Q MEMEI 2 0 >Li .4:- ./ ' Location Map Ecrty l or N River Case Number: CU 02-07 NORTH MEMORIAL HEALTH CENTER Z 2: 2 2 Z 2=r.:-. — 9,,.•7.a. -.1 ,2., ?..i...---,. •;-:','.
