The material that follows is a brief summary of St. Anthony’s general sign regulations, <br />along with a similar summary of regulations in the adjoining suburban communities of <br />Columbia Heights, New Brighton, and Roseville. These communities are not offered a s <br />recommended examples, but only to create a context for discussion. Also included is a <br />collection of photographs of existing non-permitted temporary signs that exist in the <br />community. <br />The effect of the regulations, if adopted, would potentially apply to existing signs. <br />Although the City has not enforced its prohibition against the existing signs, they have <br />technically been placed illegally, and would not technically have “legal nonconforming” <br />rights to remain. The ongoing enforcement issue is one that the City will need to <br />address separately from any adopted regulations. The expectation with this exercise is <br />that the City will create regulations that reflect the expectations of the community, and <br />follow-up will occur as a separate policy matter. <br />Following is the comparative summary noted above. It is necessarily a summary of <br />regulations, and there are often exceptions to the general rules, or more specific <br />standards that are included in the regulations being reported here. <br /> <br />Generally Allowable Signage by Land Use (Number and Size): <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> St. Anthony Roseville Columbia <br />Hts. <br />New <br />Brighton <br />Edina Mendota <br />Heights <br />Single <br />Family <br /> <br />6 sf 6 sf 2 sf, 16 sf for <br />non-res; 8 ft <br />max ht. <br />4 sf 6 sf 6 sf <br />Multi- <br />Family <br /> <br />50 sf, 8 ft. <br />ht. <br />1 @ 50sf, 6 <br />ft. ht.; <br />1 @ 24 sf, 4 <br />ft. ht. <br />16 sf, up to 2 <br />per building; <br />8 ft max ht. <br />35 sf ground <br />sign, 12 ft. <br />ht.; 200 sf <br />wall sign per <br />street front <br />15 sf non- <br />commercial <br />speech, plus <br />60 sf <br />identification <br />100 sf, 10 <br />Feet height <br />Commercial <br /> <br />15% of wall <br />area; 32-40 <br />sf ground <br />sign, 8 ft. ht. <br />1.5 sf per <br />foot of <br />building <br />frontage. <br />50-200 sf <br />wall sign, 40- <br />75 sf pylon; <br />25’ max ht. <br />36-64 sf <br />ground sign, <br />20 ft. ht.; 200 <br />sf wall sign <br />16 sf; plus <br />15% wall plus <br />80-100 sf <br />freestanding <br />50-100 sf wall <br />Sign plus 80- <br />100 sf <br />freestanding <br />Industrial <br /> <br />2 sf per foot <br />of building <br />frontage <br />(150 sf max); <br />15% of wall <br />area <br />1.5 sf per <br />foot of <br />building <br />frontage. <br />100 sf wall <br />sign, 50 sf <br />pylon; 25’ <br />max ht. <br />36 sf ground <br />sign, 20 ft. <br />ht.; 200 sf <br />wall sign <br />1 per <br />frontage; <br />plus 80sf <br />freestanding <br />50-100 sf wall <br />Sign plus 80- <br />100 sf <br />freestanding <br />Institutional <br /> <br />32 sf ground <br />sign, 8 ft. ht. <br />1.5 sf per <br />foot of <br />building <br />frontage <br />40 sf per <br />sign, 2 signs <br />with spacing <br />of 75’ <br />32 sf ground <br />sign, 200 sf <br />wall sign <br />1 per <br />frontage; <br />plus 80 sf <br />freestanding <br />100 sf, 9 feet <br />height
