PROPOSAL:
• Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-8(A): Applicability:
3. Architectural Compatibility: The number,area, and height of signs as outlined in this article

compatibility. Therefore, in addition to the enumerated maximum standards,the city shall
give consideration to a sign's relationship to the overall appearance of the subject property as
well as the surrounding area.
4. Materials And Appearance: It is the intent of this article to encourage interesting, creative,
readable, effective, uncluttered, and well maintained signage. Sign materials and appearance
shall be complementary to the building architecture and colors. The exhibits provided in the
EASD book are examples of the types of sign designs envisioned for the Eagle architecture
theme.
• Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-6(A)(4)

partially attributable to the distraction and obstruction of improperly located and designed
signs;
c. The provision for effective and necessary business identification systems adapted to the
building design;
d. The continued maintenance of signs throughout their life; and
e. The size, location, design,color,texture, lighting, landscaping,and hours of operations of all
permanent signs and outdoor advertising structures or features to ensure that any such
proposals do not detract from the function of,or design of,buildings, structures, surrounding
properties, neighborhoods, or streets.
• Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-8(B):
GRADE: The elevation or level of the street closest to the sign to which reference is made, as
measured at the street's centerline, or top of curb if one exists, adjacent to where the sign is to be
placed, or the relative ground level in the immediate vicinity of the sign if determined by the
zoning administrator to be an accurate determination for grade with regard to the intent of this
article.
HEIGHT OF SIGN: The vertical distance measured from the grade to the highest point of a sign
or any vertical projection thereof. Architectural elements used above any sign area may be
excluded from the maximum height measurement if the city determines that said architectural
elements add to the character of the sign and do not create an overbearing appearance in relation
to the sign,building and area.
SUBDIVISION SIGN: A permanent on premises sign used to identify a subdivision.
• Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-8(C)(3): Subdivision Signs:
a. One subdivision sign may be permitted on each side of any entry road into a subdivision,or

article is designed such that brightness levels are controlled to assure a soft, subtle effective light
in accordance with other city regulations intended to create and maintain the Eagle architecture
theme,while encouraging energy efficient lighting.

deemed by the design review board and city council to be consistent with the Eagle architecture
theme.

as part of the sign design. A clear covering may be permitted for protection of the neon element.
e. Halo illumination is permitted.
f. Metal halide is not permitted as a light source for signage.
g. All types of internal illumination is prohibited, except for automated signs and drive-

through/drive-up service menu board signs as regulated in this article.
C. DISCUSSION:
• The applicant is proposing to construct seven subdivision entry signs throughout the Arvory Crest
Subdivision.
Entry monument no. 1 is located at the entrance of West Floating Feather Road and North Hamlin
Avenue. The top of the sign panel of the subdivision monument sign is at an overall height of 6'
9" (center structure); however, the architectural features of the sign measure at an overall height
of 20'. The top of the Eagle logo on the east and west structures is at approximately 11'3" in
height and the overall height is 16' 6".
Entry monument no. 2 is located at the entrances off of West Hamlin Avenue at West Fair Marie
Street, West Darley Street, and West Fern Street. The top of the sign panel of the subdivision
monument sign is at an overall height of 7'; however, the architectural features of the sign
measure at an overall height of 11' 9".
Entry monument no. 3 is located at the entrance of State Highway 16 and West Rosti Farms
Road. The top of the sign panel of the subdivision monument sign is at an overall height of 11' 3"
and the overall height is 16' 6".
Pursuant to Eagle City Code, subdivision signs are not to exceed eight feet (8') in height. Eagle
City Code permits architectural elements above any sign area to be excluded from the maximum
height measurement if the city determines that said architectural elements add to the character of
the sign and do not create an overbearing appearance in relation to the sign,building and area.
Staff defers comment regarding the overall height of entry monument signs to the Design Review
Board.
• Entry monument signs no. 1 and no. 3 show the sign panels and Eagle logos located between 8-
feet and 11-feet on the monument signs. If the Design Review Board recommends approval of the
monument signs, the applicant should be required to provide revised sign elevations for entry
monument no. 1 and no. 3 showing the sign panels/logos at a maximum height of 8-feet tall. The
revised sign elevations should be reviewed and approved by staff prior to the issuance of a sign
permit.
• A side view of the monument sign structure was provided; however, a side view for the sign
panel showing the thickness of the sign panel, steel letter return, and dimension for how far the
letters are pegged off of the panel was not received. The applicant should be required to provide a
side view for the sign panel only showing the thickness of the sign panel, steel letter return and
the dimension the letters are pegged off of the panel. The side view for the sign panel should be
reviewed and approved by staff prior to the issuance of a sign permit.
