March 14, 1997 Attn: Michael Jenkins City of Tukwila 6300 SouthCenter.Blvd. Tukwila; Washington 98188 e: Signage request for Tukwila Facility Michael; We are in the process of removing the old signage on our Tukwila facility and installing a much cleaner and More uniform look to comply with the sign codes for the City of Tukwila. How ever the requirement of four (4) square feet doesn't provide, a clear and visible identification for the Main truck entrance, since the majority of tragic entering through this gate is "LARGE" tractor /trailer equipment. The sign that we are proposing is that of Thirty Six Square feet (36) located: approximately 150' off of East Marginal Way South, this will clearly mark the entrance and exit to minimize any hazards of the large pieces of ,equipment entering and exiting onto East Marginal Way South.

O.: z, • z: FINDINGS Vicinity /Site Information The applicant requests approval of a Freestanding Internal Information sign for their Truck Entrance. The sign face measures 36 square feet (four feet by nine feet) and will rest of two - six inch steel poles. The sign will have an overall height of five (5).feet, as it will sit one (1) foot off of the ground. A copy of the sign specifications and the site plan are included as Attachment A and B, respectively. The sign, as indicated in Attachment A, will be used to mark the Truck Entrance for Associated Grocers. Note that the truck entrance and surrounding area is located in the City of Tukwila. The remainder of the site directly to the north of the proposed sign is within the City of Seattle city limits. This use is complementary to the other industrial, manufacturing and distribution uses in the general vicinity. Background Information Associated Grocers has received approval on March 14, 1997 for two wall signs to be located on the south and east facades. These signs contain only the logo for the business and do not include a spelling of the business name. Decision Criteria TMC 19.22.020 authorizes the Director to authorize a sign to resolve locational. or traffic hazard problems. This section also requires that any such sign must also comply with the other requirements of TMC Chapter 19.22. The proposed sign appears appropriate in its scale and message area for its intended use. As this entrance is served only by combination truck /trailer rigs measuring up to 14 feet in height, a sign sized appropriately to convey the message and placed near the entrance is needed. This is the only proposed freestanding sign for the site within Tukwila's jurisdiction. Attachment C is a letter from Terry Farden, Administrative Services Manager for Associated Grocers. Mr. Farden indicates that the sign will be setback 150 feet from the property line. This meets the minimum required front yards setback in the MIC /H zone (TMC 18.38.080). TMC 19.22.040 (4) requires freestanding signs to be located in a landscaped area or on a decorative base. As presented, the sign will be located on two steel poles. z 1 z' re w U0. cn w LLI w o. g Q; D. a �w z� o: z'- Ill la 0 — 0E—' ww 1- U LL �; 0 w z; U N'. 0 z CONCLUSIONS 1. The proposed sign area exceeds the four square foot maximum for freestanding internal information signs (TMC 19.22.040), but is appropriate in size and scale to resolve locational problems for truck traffic (TMC 19.22.020). 2. The placement of the sign meets setback requirements for its zone (TMC 18.38.080). 3. The base of the sign must be appropriately designed (TMC 19.22.040(4)) using masonry, landscaping or other quality materials and /or treatment.
