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 review sign permits as quickly as possible (often within one week), you should allow for plenty of time in your project schedule for permit review. 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 a 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. Additional Information: I have reviewed and approved the non -conforming sign permit for this sign. As the representative of the property owner, you will be notified separately via postal mail of the non -conforming permit approval and the terms of the grace period for refacing this sign. 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. Sincerely, Jon Morrison Winters Department of Community Development City of Tukwila jonathon.winters@tukwilawa.gov 206-431-2164 1 Jon Morrison Winters From: Jon Morrison Winters Sent: Monday, June 18, 2012 8:41 AM To: 'dick@signpros.net' Subject: Sign Permit Application #S12-035 for Western Integrated Technologies Attachments: Non -Conforming Application.pdf 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 incompleteness. In order to make the application complete, you must provide the following within 90 days: A non -conforming permit is required for the reface, since the sign does not meet code. If we have not received the requested information within 90 days, your application will be cancelled. You may be granted an extension of up to 120 additional days if we receive a written request for extension. Additional Information: Since the setback is less than 5 feet from the property line, the sign does not meet code. However, since it appears that the sign met the City's previous sign code, the proposed reface may still be allowed under our non -conforming provisions. The property owner or sign owner may complete the attached non -conforming sign permit, which will allow the sign to be refaced until 2020. The non -conforming sign permit is free, and can be submitted in person or through e-mail to me. You also have the option of relocating the sign to increase the setback to 5 feet, which will make the sign conforming. If you require assistance or if you have any questions about the permitting process, please call 206-431-2164 and reference the permit number listed above.

Q:\Department Folders\DCD\DCD Common \ Applications -Handouts, Land Use\2011 WEBSITE-OCT 2011\2011 SIGNS (New Sign Code)\Freestanding Sign-updated.doc Section 3- Reface and Copy C hanue 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 arca, 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).

The applicant or installer is required to schedule the final Sign inspection through the City's Inspection line at (206)431-2451. The 4-digit inspection code needed for scheduling the final Sign inspection is 1510. The applicant or installer does not need to be present for the final Sign inspection. It is the responsibility of the installer to obtain the electrical permit and inspections from the City of Tukwila Permit Center at (206) 431-3670. The electrical inspector will need access to complete the Electrical portion of the inspection. GENERAL The issuance of some signage within the City may require a permit from the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT). It is the applicant's responsibility to obtain all required permits from the appropriate government agency. For information on permits that may be required from WSDOT call (360) 705-7296. The issuance of a sign permit shall not be construed to be a permit for, or an approval of, any violation of any of the provisions of this code or of any other ordinance of the City. Permits presuming to give authority to violate or cancel the provisions of this code or other ordinances of the City shall not be valid. The issuance of a permit based on construction documents and other data shall not prevent the Director from requiring correction of errors in the construction documents and other data (TMC 19.12.020 (C)). Pursuant to TMC 19.12.0150, sign permits shall be valid for 180 days from the date of issuance of the sign permit. The Director may approve one extension of up to 30 days if a written request is submitted to the City BEFORE expiration of the 180 day period.
