Chapter 916: Signs <br /> Page 916-7 <br />(2) Within Public Right-of-way. <br />Notwithstanding other provisions of this Chapter relating to use of the public right- <br />of-way, residential project monument signs may be located with the public right-of- <br />way under a specific license issued by the City Council, subject to other provisions <br />of this Section and the following: <br />(1) The license provides for ongoing maintenance by the licensee. <br />(2) The license may be revoked, and the sign removed at the expense of the <br />licensee, if the City Council finds that the sign has become a nuisance or a <br />danger to the public health, safety, or welfare of the community. <br />(3) Any such sign shall be located on a raised, curbed island to protect the sign <br />from traffic and street maintenance operations. <br />(4) The City Council determines that the sign does not constitute a hazard to <br />traffic. <br />2. R-3, High Density Residential District and R-4, Manufactured Home District: <br />a. No more than one sign may be erected on the subject property, except that in the case of <br />multiple family residential complexes with more than one building, one sign may be <br />erected per public street frontage. <br />b. For each property, the first sign allowed under this subsection shall be no greater than 35 <br />square feet in area, and no greater than six feet in height. <br />c. For complexes that are permitted to have a second sign under Section 916.110.E of this <br />Chapter, the second sign may be no greater than 16 square feet in area and six square feet <br />in height. <br />3. R-C, Residential Commercial District: <br />a. Business Signs. Only one sign shall be erected on the subject property. <br />(1) Freestanding or Wall Sign. Not more than 18 square feet in total area, nor higher <br />than six feet. <br />4. I-1 and I-2 Districts, and P Public District: <br />a. Except for corner lots as described in this section, the maximum number of signs on any <br />principal building shall be two and, in all cases, the total sign area shall be calculated as 15 <br />percent of the gross silhouette area of the front of the building. Where the principal <br />building is on a corner or through lot and thus faces two public streets, both sides may be <br />counted. <br />If, however, the building has only one frontage and the owner elects to erect two signs, the <br />total square footage of both signs may not exceed the maximum allowable square footage <br />determined from the front building silhouette. <br />For purposes of determining the gross area of the silhouette of the principal building, the <br />silhouette shall be defined as that area within an outline drawing of the principal building <br />as viewed from the front lot line or from the related public street(s). In addition to wall <br />signs, freestanding signs may be utilized, or a combination of both. <br />In the Business and Public zoning districts, each building shall be allowed one wall sign <br />and one freestanding sign, except that corner lots may utilize one wall sign per street <br />frontage plus one freestanding sign. For all buildings in all other zoning districts, no more <br />than one pylon sign or combination of two signs be displayed.
