Subject: Sign Permit Application #S11-098 and S11-099 for Outback Steakhouse
Dear Shawn,
The City of Tukwila Department of Community Development has completed our review of your sign permit
application. This will serve as an official notice of decision.
Your application has been approved and is available for you to pick up at our office, 6300 Southcenter Blvd, Ste 100. If
your sign is illuminated, you may be required to obtain an electrical permit when you pick up your sign permit.
The permit is valid for 180 days from the date of issuance. You are required to request a final inspection prior to the
permit expiration date or the permit will expire. To request an inspection, please call our inspection line at 206-431-
2451. You may be granted one extension of not more than 30 days if you submit a request for extension prior to permit
expiration.
For future permit applications, note that you may not omit the space between sign elements when determining sign
size. From the plans that you submitted, it appears that when calculating the size of the wall sign (permit #S11-098), you
omitted the space between the mountain logo and the word "Outback" as well as the space between "Outback" and
"Steakhouse." I approved the permit because, based on my calculations, the sign appears to be within the maximum
allowable size, even when these spaces are included in the area calculation.
If you prefer to have this permit mailed to you, or if you have any additional questions, please call 206-431-2164 and
reference the permit number listed above.
Sincerely,
Jon Morrison Winters

Dear Sign Permit Applicant,
The City of Tukwila Department of Community Development has received your application for a sign permit. This will
serve as an official notice of completeness for your permit application.
Your permit application is currently under review. You should receive written notice of the status of your application in
approximately 3-5 business days.
Although we strive to issue sign permits as quickly as possible (typically within one week), you should allow up to 120
days to receive your permit. If we are unable to issue your permit within 120 days, you will receive a written statement
of explanation as to why this time limit has not been met and an estimated date for issuance of the notice of final
decision. Any modification to project plans occurring before issuance of the permit shall be deemed a new application
for the purpose of the 120-day permit clock when such modification results in a substantial change in the project's
review requirements, as determined by the Department.
If you have any questions about the permitting process or to check the status of your application, please call 206-431-
2164 and reference the permit number listed above.

Freestanding Sign Worksheet
41A sign permit is required for the installation of a new freestanding sign. In most circumstances the City only allows new
freestanding signs to be monument style signs. Certain large premises that have gone through the Master Sign Program are
eligible for grand monument signs. Information on installing a new freestanding sign is found in SECTION 1 of this
application. Information on installing new grand monument signs can be found in SECTION 2 of this application.
A sign permit is also required for any proposed reface or copy change to an existing freestanding sign in the City. In some
cases a reface or copy change of an existing freestanding sign requires that the sign be removed. Information on completing a
reface or doing a copy change to an existing freestanding sign can be found under SECTION 3 of this application.
Section 1- New Freestanding Signs
Freestanding Signs in Commercial/Industrial Zones

Corner Properties
Some corner properties may qualify for more than one monument sign, even if they have a limited amount of street frontage. A
property that borders on more than one public street, but has less than 800 total feet of linear frontage, is permitted to have one
monument sign per street if the following criteria are met:
1. The property has a least 200 feet of frontage on each public street where a sign will be placed;
2. Each public street provides direct access to the property; and
3. For each separate street frontage Table 1 listed above shall be used to determine the design standards for any proposed
monument sign.
General Requirements for Monument Signs in Commercial and Industrial Zones
1. Setback. All monument signs shall be placed at a minimum of five feet from all property lines; however no sign taller
than three feet shall be placed within the sight distance triangle, unless it can be demonstrated the sign will not pose a
safety risk by reducing visibility for motorists turning out into traffic.
2. Maximum Width. The maximum width permitted for any new monument sign is 15 feet,
3. Address Requirement. All new freestanding signs shall have the address number or address range of the premise
listed on the structure. The address shall not be counted toward the allowable sign message area limit. Address
numbers must be plainly legible and visible from the street fronting the property. The address numbers must contrast
with the sign background. Address numbers shall be Arabic numerals or alphabet letters. Numbers shall be a
minimum of four inches high with a minimum stroke width of 1.5 inches.
' The allowable message area is either the face pane of the sign, or for channel letters or signs painted on seating or retaining walls, that portion of the sign devoted to
the actual message , logo, or business name.
2 Total size is the entire area of the sign, including the support structure.

Freestanding Signs in Residential Zones
Institutional uses and multi -family complexes are allowed to have one monument sign for each public street that provides
access to the premises. The following are the specific development standards that apply to the installation of monument signs in

6. The sign may only use indirect lighting methods except for dynamic displays. The lighting must have no spill -over
impact on adjacent properties.
Dynamic Signs in Residential Zones
In order to foster civic community outreach and communication, the City permits limited use of dynamic signs within
residential zones. One permitted monument sign per premise, as outlined above, may contain a dynamic feature. The following

Section 3- Reface and Copy Change of Existing Freestanding Signs
When the current sign code became effective on August 24, 2010, the City strived to create a sign code that would reduce the
impact to property owners and businesses that had existing freestanding signs on their property. The city permits refaces and
copy changes to existing freestanding signs under several different scenarios:
1. A freestanding sign that conforms to the current sign code is permitted refaces and copy changes with a permit.
2. A freestanding sign that is not considered a freeway interchange sign, which was legally installed under the previous
sign code but does not meet the current Sign Code, is permitted to have refaces and copy changes for up to TEN years
from the effective date of the City's Sign Code (8/24/10). A permit is required for any reface or copy change. Please
note, modifying the sign height, increasing the sign area, or relocating the sign is not permitted without bringing the
sign into full conformance with the City's Sign Code. At the end of the ten year period the sign may remain as -is
indefinitely, however additional refaces or copy changes will require that the sign be brought into conformance with
the Sign Code.
3. A freestanding sign that is considered a freeway interchange sign and was legally installed under the previous sign
code is permitted to have refaces and copy changes for up to FIVE years from the effective date of the City's Sign
Code (8/24/10). A permit is required for any reface or copy change. Please note, modifying the sign height,
increasing the sign area, or relocating the sign is not permitted. At the end of the five year period the sign may remain
as -is indefinitely, however any changes to the face or structure of the sign will require that the sign be removed.
4. Freestanding signs that did not comply with the City's previous sign code, for example those that were installed while
an area was in King County, are not permitted to have any changes to the face or structure of the sign without bringing
the sign into conformance with the Sign Code.
Staff can help you research previous permit history to determine if your existing freestanding sign was installed under the
provisions of the City's previous Sign Code.
You will note that under Section 1 of this sign permit application additional signs are allowed for premises with over 800 feet of
linear street frontage or for corner properties. Even if your property qualifies for this additional signage under Section 1 you
will not be able to install it until any existing non -conforming sign(s) are removed (TMC 19.36.070).
