Staff had concerns over the colors proposed for the north facing fascia
mounted sign and indicated that the commission should take a look at it.
Commissioner Martin had no objection to the colors of the sign since they
would not be visible from Highway 111.
Commissioner Cook indicated that the sign size was within code and he had
no objection to the colors.
Moved by Commissioner Martin, seconded by Commisioner Cook to approve
this case. Carried 3-0
2. CASE NO: 995 SA
APPLICANT (AND ADDRESS): WESTFEILD DEVELOPMENT CO.
NATURE OF PROJECT/APPROVAL SOUGHT: Approval of monument sign.
LOCATION: Palrm Desert Business Park
ZONE:
Mr. Smith indicated that code permits one freestanding sign per private
property.
Commissioner Cook suggested placing the sign against the building so that it
would be a wall mounted sign.
Mr. Smith suggested that the applicant attend the planning commission
meeting concerning the Palm Desert Town Center signage. This matter
would be within the same code section and the applicant would be able to
express his views.
Commissioner Martin noted that code states - only one monument sign per
business park is allowed and that the commission should abide by the code.
Moved by Commissioner Martin, seconded by Commissioner Cook to deny this
case based on these findings:
1. Code limits one freestanding sign per private property.
2. The name on the sign refers to a business park which would make this a
business park within a business park.
