end

 

STRATEGIC OUTCOME:

This addendum will allow for the location of a new freestanding sign, in a manner which is safe for pedestrians and motorists, supporting the needs of the area businesses. This addendum supports the City Council’s strategic outcomes of Safe and Prosperous and Active and Appealing.

 

REPORT:

The City Council, by Resolution R2013-47, approved the Southgate Mall, LLC Real Property Exchange and Development Agreement (Agreement). The Agreement details specific development standards, including the type and location of freestanding signage throughout the site. According to Exhibit 9 within the 2013 Agreement, a monument sign was permitted to be installed along Catalina Drive, adjacent to a driveway midway between 8th Avenue and 4th Avenue.

Southgate Mall, LLC (Owner) is seeking to amend the Agreement to allow for the relocation and modification of the sign type to better suit the needs of the businesses and the site configuration. While monument signs are a visually appealing sign type, the location of such signage, when in excess of six feet in height, does require increased setbacks to avoid conflicts in visibility. Due to unique right-of-way characteristics the Owner is unable to meet the development standards for a monument sign, without a significant modification to the internal circulation pattern. Additionally, in an effort to increase visibility from 4th Avenue, the Owner would like to locate the proposed freestanding signage further east than originally identified in the Agreement. 

As identified in the attached Exhibit, the Owner is proposing to install a pole sign (Sign Design A), in a location with increased visibility from 4th Avenue. This proposed pole sign’s design is consistent with the existing pole sign located along 4th Avenue.
