The use of the grand monument <br />signs allows for smaller tenants to utilize freestanding signage. The site also has multiple entrances. <br />Approving the grand monument signs will allow the two existing signs on the property to be considered <br />conforming signs. The requested widening of the proposed monument sign is to create a better sign <br />design. <br />The Parkway Supercenter property is deep and there is parking in between the building and the public <br />stre et. Allowing the wall signs to be larger than standard size allowed under the Sign Code will provide <br />tena nts with better visibility of their store locations from the street. Under the Master Sign Program, the <br />wa ll sign size can be up to 6% of the exposed building face, up to a maximum of 250 square feet. <br /> <br />u w; ¦©šm©’ -š’¦Œz;­ Þz·w ·w; ¦¦Œz-,Œ; ­·“7©7­ šE ·wz­ /w¦· <br />Majority of the wall signs comply with the standard code provisions. Where deviations are requested, they <br />c omply with the modifications permitted under the Master Sign Program. <br /> u w; ;ãz­·z“m “7 ¦©š¦š­;7 ­zm“m; z­ z“·;m©·;7 Þz·w “ šÝ;©ŒŒ <br />-©;·;  ­E;r ŒzÝ;Œär “7 z“Ýz·z“m “zmw··z’; ;“Ýz©š“’;“· zE ·w <br />The existing lighting for the shopping complex has been layered to provide a safe and convenient <br />shopping environment. All freestanding signs are lit and lights are located above and around walkways. <br />Store fronts are illuminated and parking lot lights have been installed. <br />u bš ­zm“©;Œ·;7 -š7; ;“Eš©-;’;“· ÝzšŒ·zš“­ š“ ·w; ¦©;’z­;­ Eš© <br />a­·;© {zm“ t©šm©’ ¦¦Œz-·zš“u <br /> <br />There have been no sign related code enforcement violations on this property for the last year. <br />u w; ¦©šm©’ ’Ò­· -š“·z“  ­-w;7Ҍ; Eš© ·w; ©;’šÝŒ šE ŒŒ “š“- <br />·w©;; ä;©­ E©š’ ·w; 7·; šE a­·;© {zm“ t©šm©’ ¦¦©šÝŒ u <br />The only non-conforming signs on the premises are the two grand monument signs. They will become <br />conforming if the Master Sign Program is approved. <br />CONCLUSION <br />The site is eligible for the Master Sign Program because it is over 15 acres in area and has building <br /> <br />u <br />space in excess of 200,000 feet. <br /> <br />With over 3000 square feet of frontage on two public streets, the site is eligible for seven <br /> u <br />monument signs. <br /> <br />The premise is located in the Commercial Corridor district of the Tukwila Urban Center zone and <br /> <br />u <br />thus is eligible to have two monument signs converted into grand monument signs. <br /> <br />4. The design of the two grand monument signs complies with applicable code standards. <br />Page 8 of 10 <br />16 <br /> <br />
