<br />Little Canada Zoning Ordinance General Provisions <br />903-49 <br /> <br /> 4. "B-1", Limited Neighborhood Business District: <br /> <br />a. Within the "B-1" District, the maximum allowable square footage of sign <br />area per lot shall not exceed the sum of one (1) square foot per front foot <br />of the building, plus one (1) square foot for each front foot of lot not <br />occupied by a building, up to one hundred (100) square feet. Each lot will <br />be allowed one (1) pylon or freestanding sign and one (1) wall sign or two <br />(2) wall signs total. <br /> <br /> 5. "B-2" through "B-I", and "I-1" and “I-P” Districts: <br /> <br />a. Except for corner lots as described in this section, the maximum number <br />of signs on any principal building shall be two (2) and in all cases, the <br />total sign area shall be calculated as fifteen (15) percent of the gross <br />silhouette area of the front of the building. Where the principal building is <br />on a corner or through lot and thus faces two (2) public streets, both sides <br />may be counted. If, however, the building has only one (1) frontage and <br />the owner elects to erect two (2) signs, the total square footage of both <br />signs may not exceed the maximum allowable square footage determined <br />from the front building silhouette. For purposes of determining the gross <br />area of the silhouette of the principal building, the silhouette shall be <br />defined as that area within an outline drawing of the principal building as <br />viewed from the front lot line or from the related public street(s).In <br />addition to wall signs, freestanding signs may be utilized, or a <br />combination of both. In the B-2, B-3, and B-4 zoning districts, each <br />building shall be allowed one wall sign and one freestanding sign, except <br />that corner lots may utilize one wall sign per street frontage plus one <br />freestanding sign. For all buildings in all other zoning districts, no more <br />than one (1) pylon sign or combination of two (2) signs be displayed. <br /> <br />(1) The City may determine that commercial buildings that front on <br />both public and private streets may qualify as corner lots for the <br />purposes of this Section. <br /> <br />b. Comprehensive Sign Plan. In the case of a shopping center or where there <br />are two (2) or more business uses located within one structure or on one <br />property, the approval of a Comprehensive Sign Plan shall be required for <br />the entire complex in accordance with an overall site plan indicating the <br />size, location and height of all signs. The Comprehensive Sign Plan shall <br />be an administrative permit, provided the plan meets all size, location, and <br />other standards of this Section and any applicable Architectural Guidelines <br />applicable to the district in which the sign would be located. A maximum <br />of fifteen (15) percent of the building silhouette shall apply to the principal <br />building where the aggregate allowable sign area is distributed among the <br />several businesses. In the case of applying this Comprehensive Sign Plan
