87- 1 -SPE: NorMed
Page 2
The applicant is requesting approval to build a Shared Directional Sign to
assist in the pickup and delivery of products to their site. Shared Directional
Signs require Planning Commission review, but do not require a public hearing.
DECISION CRITERIA
Applicable Sign Code Standards:
TMC 19.32.020 Shared Directional Signs
In commercial and industrial areas where a demonstrated need for direc-
tional signing exists, owners or tenants of these premises may petition
the Planning Commission for review and approval of the design of a shared
directional sign. Such sign shall not exceed ten feet in height, ten feet
in width, and have a maximum of two signing surfaces which do not exceed a
total of fifty square feet. Such sign shall be located on the premises of
at least one of the entities identified thereon and shall be used only by
geographically associated businesses. The sign structure shall be located
in a masonry base of decorative appearance. The shared directional sign
shall contain no promotional copy but shall be limited to the names and
addresses of the companies or activities being identified.
TMC 19.32.070 Freestanding Signs - Setback
The minimum setback distance for freestanding signs shall be equal to the
overall height of the sign. If the freestanding sign faces a multiple -
family or single - family zone, the sign shall be set back a minimum of one
hundred feet. The base of the freestanding sign will be landscaped with
trees and shrubs.
TMC 19.32.010(I) Vision Clearance
No signs or sign supports will be permitted which obscure vision between the
heights of 3 feet and 10 feet of the street allowed within 40 feet of the
intersection of streets or driveways.

1. The proposed sign (Attachment C) measures 79" by 60" with a sign area of 46
square feet. The sign will only have information on one side facing the
street.
2. The applicant is requesting the sign to identify the existing business on
the site. The applicant does not intend to use the sign for promotional
copy.
3. As shown on Attachment C, the applicant has not proposed a masonry base for
the sign.
4. The proposed sign will have a blue background with white letters constructed
on a matte polyurelthune finish.
5. The proposed sign location is in an area that has some landscaping already.
No modification of the landscaping is proposed.
6. The location of the proposed sign (Attachment A /B) does not meet vision
clearance standards for street intersections.
1. The proposed sign requested complies with Shared Directional Sign height,
width and area requirements.
2. The location of the sign does not comply with TMC 19.32.010(I) which deals
with setback and vision clearance standards for street intersections.
3. TMC 19.32.020 requires Shared Directional Signs to "be located in a masonry
base of decorative appearance." The proposed sign as shown by Attachment C
does not meet this requirement.
4. TMC 19.32.070 requires freestanding signs which include Shared Directional
Signs to "be landscaped with trees and shrubs." From the information sub-
mitted, the applicant has not proposed any modification to the existing
landscaping.
