Re: Master Sign Program for The Museum of Flight
File SII -031
Dear Laurie:
Based upon the plans and information submitted in connection with your request for the Master Sign Program approval, I
hereby approve your Master Sign Program proposal subject to the conditions listed at the end of this letter.
BACKGROUND
The property where the Museum of Flight (Museum) is located was annexed into the city in 1989. Presumably, the
majority of the signs on the site were permitted under King County prior to the annexation as there are no permits on file
with the City for the majority of the signs on the Museum campus. The City of Tukwila has permit applications for 3
freestanding signs from 2004. These permits never received final approval and the city has no other sign permit
applications on file for the Museum. The light pole banners that are located on the public right-of-way are covered under
an agreement between the Museum and the city's Public Works Department and are not a part of the Master Sign Program
application.
The site straddles both sides of East Marginal Way South. On the east side of the street is the main Museum campus and
the original Boeing factory (the Red Barn building). On the west side of the street is the 9-04 Library and Archives
building, the Space Shuttle Gallery and airpark which is subject to a Binding Site Improvement Plan (BSIP) decision (File
No. L10-060). To the north of the airpark, the future Aviation High School and its associated parking area is owned by the
Museum and included in this Master Sign Permit. The Aviation High School and its associated parking area is also
subject to a BSIP also (File No. L11-019). As a condition of land use file, L10-059 —Special Permission Parking, the
Museum shall pursue a Master Sign Program Permit to allow special event signage. The signage on the site is divided
between the east and west campuses, as bisected by East Marginal Way South. The west campus is further divided
between the Space Shuttle Gallery/9-04 building viewed as one structure and the Raisbeck Aviation High School building.
The City received your request for the Master Sign Program on April 4, 2011. The plans reflect the current and future
goals for signage at the Museum campus. The Museum of Flight proposes a number of permanent wall signs that change
copy. They are not animated but rather display images that reflect various events at the Museum. The Master Sign
Program allows deviations in the signage standards of Title 19. Under Title 19, without Master Sign Program approval,
the site qualifies for the following signage:

REQUIREMENTS FOR REVIEW AND APPROVAL OF A MASTER SIGN PROGRAM
The City's Sign and Visual Communication Code, Title 19 of the Tukwila Municipal Code, describes the review criteria
to approve an application for the Master Sign Program. The criteria and a discussion on how the application meets the
criteria are outlined below.
19.32.020 Eligibility
Property owners of premises that meet one of the following conditions may apply for approval of a Master Sign Program
to customize the standard Sign Code requirements to their specific site conditions:
1. Sites of 15 acres or more, developed with one or more buildings, totaling at least 200,000 square feet.
The site is over 23 acres in size on five parcels. 174,000 square feet of Museum space is built with an additional 15,000
square feet of hangar under construction and 86,000 square feet for the high school with approved building permits.
2. Essential Public Facilities within commercial or industrial zones.
The site is in an industrial zone. The Raisbeck Aviation High School is an essential public facility.
19.32.040 Criteria
A Master Sign Program may be approved if all of the following criteria are met:
1. The Master Sign Program meets the intent of the Sign Code as well or better than the signage allowed under
the standard code provisions.
The intent of the Sign Code is defined in TMC 19.04.020:
The purpose of this code is to enhance the City's aesthetic character; to protect the public health,
safety and welfare; and to increase the effectiveness of visual communication in the City by providing
opportunities for Tukwila businesses, residents and property owners to display signage. The
regulations for signs have the following specific objectives:
1. To have signs that attract and invite rather than demand the public's attention along the City's
streetscapes.
2. To have streets that appear orderly and safe, because clutter is minimized.
3. To have signs that enhance the visual environment of the City, because they are in harmony with
building architecture and landscape design.
4. To allow business identification that is not unduly hindered by regulatory standards.
SM Page 2 of 6 05/13/2011
CATemp\XPgrpwise\Master Sign Program Decision Template.doc
5. To ensure typical communication and civic discussion is fostered in the City's residential
neighborhoods.
6. To allow signs that utilize high quality construction materials, fine architectural detailing, harmonious
proportionality, and that serve a multi -modal environment.
The Master Sign Program meets the intent of the Sign Code better than the signage allowed under the standard sign
provisions.
2. The requested deviations from the code respond to the specific characteristics or use of the premises.
The site is divided to the east and west campuses; the west campus is further divided into the Space Shuttle Gallery/9-04
building and the Raisbeck Aviation High School. Aggregation of allowed sign area is proposed to stay within the wall
areas of each building.
The Museum is also requesting that future permits for wall signs allow changing copy without the need to obtain a new
sign permit. Many of their signs are banners that display graphics advertising the exhibits at the Museum. Within the City
of Tukwila, the Brand Alliance signs at Westfield Southcenter Mall are similar in that they change copy periodically to
advertise various events and products at the Mall. They are allowed to change copy without obtaining new permits.
Changing the copy on the wall signs will not meet the definition of a Dynamic Sign under TMC 19.08.094. Dynamic
Signs are generally prohibited under Title 19.
3. The program complies with the applicable standards in this chapter.
The Master Sign Program will require applications for sign permits. Sign permits will only be issued for signs that
comply with Title 19 and specifically comply with this Master Sign Program decision.
4. The existing and proposed signage is integrated with an overall lighting scheme for the project site to create a
safe, lively and inviting night-time environment if the site is in a commercial zone.
Not applicable. The site is in an industrial zone.
5. No sign -related code enforcement violations on the premises for at least one year prior to submitting the
Master Sign Program application.
No active or outstanding sign -related code enforcement violations have been initiated against the property.
6. The program must contain a schedule for the removal of all non -conforming signs on the premise within three
years from the date of Master Sign Program approval.
The Museum proposes to bring the existing non -conforming signs into compliance within three years through removal
and/or replacement of the existing non -conforming signs.
19.32.060 Allowable Modifications Under a Master Sign Program
A. Modifications to the following standards may be allowed under an administratively approved Master Sign
Program:
1. Increase in monument sign total area of up to 25 percent. No increase in height permitted.

a. For premises up to 85 acres in size, the flush -mounted building sign can be increased to six percent of the
exposed building face, up to a maximum of 250 square feet.
The site is 23 acres in size. The allowed flush -mounted building signs can be increased to six percent of the exposed
building face. On all building faces, 6 percent of the wall area exceeds the maximum allowance of 250 square feet.

of the exposed building face, up to a maximum of 500 square feet, provided that no flush -mounted building sign with an
area greater than 250 square feet is located within 250 feet of a public street.
The site is 23 acres in size. This is not applicable.
3. Aggregation of the building -mounted or freestanding sign area allowed per Table 1 or Table 2 (of Title 191
into fewer, larger signs of the same type.
Aggregation of freestanding signs is not proposed. Aggregation of wall -mounted signs is proposed. The buildings qualify
for incentive signage allowing signage on any wall face. The total wall sign area allowed under the Master Sign Program
is stated in Table 3. The east campus may place no more than 2 signs each on the east, 2 signs on the west face, one sign
on the south and one on the north face. The West campus may place no more than 2 signs on the south face and one sign
on the other faces. The High School may place no more than one sign per building face.
.4. Up to four additional directional signs. The directional signs must utilize materials, colors and details
consistent with the design of the other site signage.
A total of eight directional signs are allowed under the Master Sign Program. Only those signs that are discernible from
the public right of way or an adjacent property require permits and are considered as directional signs. According to
TMC 19.12.030, freestanding directional signs may be up to three feet in height and two square feet per face or a total of
four square feet for all faces. Flush -mounted building signs may be up to three square feet in size.
B. In addition to the above -listed modifications, the following additional sign types may be allowed with Board of
Architectural Review approval:
1. Roof signs.
2. Grand monument signs.
3. Landmark business wall signs.
Roof signs, grand monument signs, and landmark business signs are not proposed. These criteria are not applicable.
19.32.070 Existing Signs Not Conforming to a Master Sign Program
Any new or amended Master Sign Program shall include the removal of any existing, non -conforming signs on the
premises. The applicant may propose a phased schedule for bringing into conformance all signs not conforming to the
proposed or amended program, or Chapter 19.36 of this code, within three years. If phasing is proposed, a financial
guarantee acceptable to the Director shall be held by the City until the premises is brought into compliance with the Sign
Code and approved Master Sign Program.
SM Page 4 of 6 05/13/2011
CATempVPgrpwise\Master Sign Program Decision Template.doc
Existing non -conforming signs will be removed within three years. Sign permit applications will show which signs are to
be removed when new or replacement signage is proposed. All new signs, including refacing of existing signs, require a
sign permit. Sign permits will not be issued if they result in the creation of increase of the degree of non -conforming
signage on the site.
19.32.080 Regional Gateway Sign
In addition to the signs otherwise allowed under the Master Sign Program, the City may allow by development agreement
on property adjacent to two interstate highways, installation of one sign intended to attract and welcome visitors to the
Tukwila Urban Center area of the City. The standards for such a sign shall be set forth in the development agreement.
The property is not in the Urban Center area of the City. This item is not applicable.
19.32.090 Binding Effect
After approval of a Master Sign Program, no permanent signs shall be erected, placed, painted or maintained, except in
conformance with such plan, and such plan shall be enforced in the same way as any provision in this code. The Master
Sign Program shall be referenced to the lease agreements for all leasable space within the project and recorded on the
property title. In case of any conflict between the provisions of such a plan and any other provisions in this code, this
section shall control.
As a condition of final approval, the Master Sign Program decision shall be recorded against the property title.
DECISION
The Museum of Flight/Raisbeck Aviation High School meets the eligibility standards for participation in the Master Sigh
Program. The proposed Master Sign Program application meets the criteria of TMC 19.32.040. The Master Sign
Program is approved, subject to the following conditions:
1. A sign permit is required for any sign that is discernible from the public right of way. All sign permit applications
shall reference this decision.
2.: The East Campus is permitted up to of six wall signs. Two signs are allowed on both the east and west face, one sign
is allowed on both the north and south face. The total area of the wall signs shall not exceed 1325 square feet.
3. The West Campus is permitted up to of five wall signs. Two signs are allowed on the south face. All other faces may
have no more than one sign per face. The total area of the wall signs shall not exceed 1075 square feet.
4. The High School is permitted four wall signs. Only one sign per face is permitted. The total area of the wall sign shall
not exceed 475 square feet.
5. Aggregation of wall sign area is allowed with each campus, i.e. allowed signs or sign area from one campus will not
be transferred to the other campus. For the purposes of aggregation, the site is divided into the east campus, the west
campus, and the Aviation High School.
6. Allow the wall signs to be permitted to allow for changing copy. Once permitted initially, changing copy, provided
dimensions remain the same, shall not require a new sign permit.
7. The East campus may have 2 monument signs up to eight feet in height. Each sign may be up to 120 square feet per
side and 240 square feet total. Aggregation of the monument signs to one sign up to 240 square feet is permitted but
not proposed.
8. The West campus may have 2 monument signs up to eight feet in height. Each sign may be up to 110 square feet per
side and 220 square feet total. Aggregation of the monument signs to one sign up to 240 square feet is permitted but
not proposed.
9. Up to eight directional signs are permitted on the entire site. Freestanding directional signs may be up to three feet in
height and two square feet per face or a total of four square feet for all faces. Flush -mounted building signs may be
up to three square feet in size per TMC 19.12.030. Directional signs do not require a permit but shall meet the size
and location requirements of Title 19. Installation of more than eight directional signs that are discernible from the
right-of-way would be considered a violation of Title 19.
10. The Museum shall bring the existing non -conforming signs into compliance within three years through removal
and/or replacement of the existing non -conforming signs. Sign permit applications shall show which signs are to be
removed with the installation of new signs. Sign permits shall be conditioned so that the addition of new signs does
not create a non -conforming sign situation nor increase the degree of non -conforming sign type on the site.

CATemp\XPgrpwise\Master Sign Program Decision Template.doc
i'
11. The approval of the site is subject to the Master Sign Program shall be recorded against the property title. Prior to
issuing the first sign permit, this condition shall be met.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The City requires sign permits for all signs that are discernible from the public right of way or adjacent properties. A
number of signs on the site are not discernible and therefore do not require a permit and are not considered non-
conforming. The following is a list of existing signs that do not require a permit:
1. "Museum of Flight" channel cut letters on the east campus building facing the southeast towards the runway.
2. Two freestanding directional signs (one on each campus) located at the farthest point from East Marginal Way South
are not discernible.
3. The pedestrian -oriented wall sign at the elevator on the west campus is not discernible.
4. The "Library and Archives" painted on the side of 9-04 is considered part of the address.
5. "Boeing Airplane Company" painted on the red barn
The use of special event signage, including A -boards, requires a Special Event/Temporary sign permit and is subject to
TMC 19.24. Special event signage is independent of the Master Sign Program decision.

The City's sign code permits a variety of building mounted signs, including wall signs, signs on awnings, canopy signs and
projecting signs. This sign permit application can be used to determine the total number of building mounted signs permitted
for your business. The application also provides the specific code standards for the common types of building mounted signs,
see TMC 19 Sign Code for details. Please note that you may not qualify for all signage types outlined in this application.
Each public entrance is eligible for either a flush mounted wall sign or an awning face sign. In some cases an additional wall
sign maybe permitted on walls that do not have entrances, see Section 2 of this application.
