MINUTES PLANNING COMMISSION JUNE 11, 2009 The next issue discussed was signage. The City Planner reported that Sherman Associates is requesting that a second mommient sign be allowed on the Culver's property (Lot I) along Rice Street for the future owner of Lot 2. The City Planner noted that the property is zoned I'UD, however, it is typical to allow one free standing sign per property. The Planner noted that both signs would be monument signs and would meet the City's Architectural Guidelines. The Planner recommended that if the Commission is inclined to approve this request, it be in lieu of a monument sign on Lot 2. Building signage would still be allowed. The Planner reviewed the sign appearances and locations, noting that the Culver's monument sign would be located on the southwest corner of the site, and the monument sign for Lot 2 would be on the northwest corner of the site. Rob Koss, Sherman Associates, noted that any business locating on I,ot 2 will want signage on Rice Street. Knudsen asked if a future tenant would be willing to give up the monument sign on Lot 2. Koss indicated that the tenants will want signage on the building. He also indicated that if signage is an issue in the future, the tenant may approach the City and request a monument sign on Lot 2. The City Planner noted that the Council could amend a PUD Permit at any time. However, he recommended against allowing more than two monument signs for these properties. If the request is for a monument sign for Lot 2 on the Culvcr's site along Rice Street, than the trade-off would be no monument sign on Lot 2. Barraclough asked about the City Planner's recommendation relative to lighting. The City Planner reported that a photometric plan will be submitted relative to lighting, and some lighting adjustments will likely need to be made. Knudsen recommended approval of the Preliminary and Pinal Plat, Planned Unit Development Permit to develop a family quick-service restaurant consisting of approximately 88 seats as well asdrive-through window, Architectural Review, and Comprehensive Sign Plan for a Culvers Restaurant located on the southwest corner oP Rice Street and Market Drive subject to compliance with the recommendations of the City Planner outlined in his June 3, 2009 report, the recommendations of the City Engineer outlined in his May 29, 2009 report, with the stipulation that the City Planner will revisit the parking calculation in light of the information relative to seating area square footage, with the stipulation that the City Engineer revisit the issue of the 36 foot versus 24 foot curb -7-
