CASE NO. 4671 SA
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Palm Desert,
California, did on the 3rd day of September, 1996, hold a duly noticed
public hearing to consider a request by A.G. Edwards & Sons to allow a
wall sign above the eave line; and
WHEREAS, said application has complied with the requirements of the
"City of Palm Desert Procedure for Implementation of the California
Environmental Quality Act, Resolution No. 80-89," in that the Director
of Community Development has determined that the project is a Class 1
exemption for purposes of CEQA and will not have an adverse effect of
the environment; and
WHEREAS, at said public hearing, upon hearing and considering all
testimony and arguments, if any, of all interested persons desiring to
be heard, said planning commission did find the following facts and
reasons to exist to justify granting of the height exception:
A. The sign is integrated into the architecture of the building.
• On July 23, 1996 the Architectural Review Commission found
that the sign was integrated into the architecture of the
building.
B. The sign will not be detrimental to the neighboring businesses
or the community in general.
• The sign will not be detrimental to the surrounding neighbors
since there are other tenants in the same complex and adjacent
neighbors which have received a similar exception to this sign
ordinance.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the
City of Palm Desert, California, as follows:
1. That the above recitations are true and correct and constitute
the findings of the commission in this case.
2. That approval of 4671 SA is hereby granted, subject to the
attached conditions.
