STAFF ANALYSIS PROVIDED WITHIN THE STAFF REPORT:
A. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN PROVISIONS WHICH ARE OF SPECIAL CONCERN REGARDING
THIS PROPOSAL:
• Protect and enhance the small town character of the City by requiring signage which is creative
and distinctive, compatible with its surroundings, and an integral component of the style and
character of the building to which it relates.
B. ZONING CODE PROVISIONS WHICH ARE OF SPECIAL CONCERN REGARDING THIS
PROPOSAL:
• Eagle City Code Section 8 -2A -2(B)
The general theme of the Design Review Overlay District is to specify desirable building and
landscape architectural styles and materials to create a sustainable and pleasing environment for
residents and visitors alike. The architectural designs, materials, and graphics set forth in this
article are complied to create a theme unique to the area called "Eagle Architecture".
• Eagle City Code Section 8 -2A -6(A)(4)
Signage for any project shall provide for business identification and minimize clutter and
confusion on and off the site.
a. The "overall sign concept" for multi -tenant business centers to assure that it addresses the
continuity between tenant sign design and building design;
b. The reduction of hazards to motorists, bicyclists and pedestrians as may be caused by or
partially attributable to the distraction and obstruction of improperly located and designed
signs;
Page 3 of 13
K:U'lannmg DeptU-aglc ApplicationsU)r\2009U)R-19.09 MOD Castlebury West Butt 1'ark MSP dn.doc
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): Definitions
ANIMATED SIGN: Any sign which is designed and constructed to give its message through a
sequence or progressive changes or parts or lights or degree of lighting, such as an electronic
reader board.
AUTOMATED SIGN: A sign with a fixed or changing display capable of displaying words,
symbols, figures or images composed of, a series of light emitting elements or moving panels or
parts; including, but not limited to: tripaneled, digital, electronic message boards, light emitting
diodes (LED) signs or signs that in any other way move or create the illusion of movement. This
definition does not include signs with copy that is manually changed.
FACE OF SIGN: The surface of the sign area upon, against or through which the message is
displayed or illustrated.
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.
ILLUMINATION, HALO: Illumination of a sign from a light source that is not visible and is
concealed or contained within the sign or located between the sign and the structure/wall.
Illumination from the source of the light becomes visible in darkness when the light is reflected off
of the wall/structure upon which the sign is attached.
ILLUMINATION, PUNCH THROUGH LETTER: A sign with letters, logos or other sign
graphics that are opaque (no light is permitted to shine through them), that are attached to a sign
cabinet or structure that allows light to shine through it. The distance between the letters, logos, or
other sign graphics and the background (surface of the cabinet or structure) is a maximum of one-
half inch (1/2"). The light source is concealed within the cabinet or structure and is not visible
except that illumination from the light source shines though transparent (nonopaque) background
material for no more than one-fourth inch (1/4") around the letters, logo, and other graphics,
creating a halo effect.
MASTER SIGN PLAN: A plan designed to show the relationship of signs for any cluster of
buildings intended for business occupancy, or any single building containing more than one
business or any arrangement of business buildings or shops which constitute a visual entity as a
whole. These include developments such as shopping centers, mini -malls, business parks, and
multi -tenant commercial, office or industrial buildings housing four (4) or more businesses.
Additionally, a master sign plan may be submitted for a single business if the owner chooses to
submit an application for a master sign plan for said business.
MONUMENT SIGN: A freestanding sign with a solid base, including rock signs, or with supports
that are designed to be structurally similar to the sign construction, and which incorporate
architectural features which complement the sign construction. Pole type supports are not
permitted for monument signs, unless enclosed within the monument sign structure.
Page 4 of 13
K:\Planning Dept\Eagle Applications\Dr\2009\DR-19-09 MOD Casdehury Bu, Park MSP drl.doc
SIGN AREA: The entire area within a single, contiguous perimeter enclosing the extreme limits of
writing, representation, logo, emblem or any figure or similar character, together with any form or
other material or color forming an integral part of the display, or used to differentiate such sign
area from the background against which it is placed. The sign area shall not include the necessary
supports or uprights on which the sign is placed, and superficial, nonilluminated column covers,
ornamental trim and other such incidental objects attached thereto, or portions of the sign structure
which are not designed to convey a message.
• Eagle City Code Section 8 -2A -8(C)(2): Monument Signs:
a. For single -tenant buildings which are not within the DDA, TDA, or within a "shopping center",
monument signs shall not exceed eight feet (8') in height and the sign area shall not exceed
sixty (60) square feet per side.
• Eagle City Code Section 8 -2A -8(C)(8): Automated Signs:
a. Automated signs may be permitted as a part of a monument sign and shall be prohibited in all
other types of signs if the city determines the following:
(1) The lighting shall be harmonious with and in accordance with the general objectives, or
with any specific objective of this article;
(2) The lighting shall be installed, operated, and maintained to be harmonious and appropriate
in appearance with the existing and intended character of the general vicinity and will not
change the essential character of the same area; and
(3) The lighting will not be disturbing to existing or future neighboring uses. (Ord. 665, 2-14-
2012)
c. All automated signs that utilize light to create change may change frame content through
dissolve, fade or scroll features only. No sign shall be operated in a manner which the sign, sign
structure, design or pictorial segment of the sign shows full animation, growing, flashing,
rotating content, or otherwise creating an illusion of movement, except for single color text only
message displays scrolling or traveling across the sign area. (Ord. 665, 2-14-2012)
d. The signs shall only change frame content not more than once every eight (8) seconds. The
change of content must change immediately within a period of less than one second. (Ord. 756,
8-23-2016)
e. Based on brightness measured in nit (an illuminative brightness measurement equivalent to 1
candle per square meter measured perpendicular to the rays of the source); automated signs that
utilize light to change frames shall contain an autodimmer allowing for no more than five
thousand two hundred (5,200) nit illumination between sunrise and sunset and up to three
hundred (300) nit illumination between sunset and sunrise.
f. The automated sign portion of any sign should be constructed into the sign in a manner in which
it is subordinate to the overall design of the sign. The automated sign portion of any sign shall
not exceed twenty percent (20%) of the face of any sign.
g. Where more than one sign is allowed only one sign may contain an automated sign.
• Eagle City Code Section 8 -2A -8(C)(13) Sign Illumination:

• Eagle City Code Section 8 -2A -8(C)(15): Master Sign Plan:
The master sign plan may be approved by the city with elements that require suspension or
relaxation of the height, area, number of signs, or locations of signs specified within this article if
the design review board finds that extraordinary conditions exist which allow suspension or
relaxation, but that any suspension or relaxation will still meet the intent of this article and:
a. The development site contains unique or unusual physical conditions such as topography,
proportion, size or relation to a public street that would limit or restrict normal sign visibility; or
b. The proposed or existing development exhibits unique characteristics of land use, architectural
style, site location, physical scale, historical interest or other distinguishing features that justify
variation from conventional development; or
c. The proposed signage incorporates special design features such as logos, emblems, murals,
statuaries or similar architectural elements that are designed in a manner determined by the city
to be architecturally compatible to the sign and area. (Ord. 756, 8-23-2016)
C. DISCUSSION:
• The applicant is proposing to modify the master sign plan for Castlebury West Business Park to
modify the Saint Alphonsus Medical Group monument sign. The applicant is proposing to remove
an existing monument sign (noted as sign "C" below) and replace it with the proposed Saint
Alphonsus Medical Group monument sign. The proposed monument sign is constructed of
fabricated metal painted metallic silver with a cultured stone base. Pursuant to the approved
Castlebury West Business Park master sign plan (DR -19-09), there are currently three (3) existing
monument signs located adjacent to Chinden Boulevard. Monument sign "A" below was approved
to be ten -feet, nine inches (10' 9") tall and contains three (3) tenant panels. Monument sign "B"
below was approved to be eight -feet (8') tall and contains two (2) tenant panels. Monument sign
"C" below was approved to be eight -feet (8') tall and is a single -tenant sign. In addition, all three
(3) monument signs were designed to complement the buildings located within the business park
and the surrounding residential neighborhood.

The design of the proposed monument sign is not consistent with the existing monument signs.
Additionally, the existing monuments signs complement the architecture of the existing buildings
and each other. The proposed monument sign would not complement the buildings nor the other
monument signs. Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-6(A)(4)(e) states that size, location, design, color,
texture, lighting, landscaping of all permanent signage shall not detract from the function of, or
design of, buildings, structures, surrounding properties, neighborhoods, or streets. To achieve a
recommendation of approval, the applicant should provide revised monument sign elevations
showing the addition of stone, earth tone colors, etc., to complement the existing monument signs.
The revised monument sign elevations should be reviewed and approved by the Design Review
Board and City Council prior to the issuance of a sign permit.
• The proposed monument sign is 12 -feet tall and the face of the sign is 63 -square feet. Eagle City
Code Section 8 -2A -8(C)(2) requires single tenant building monument signs to be a maximum of 8 -
feet tall and the face of the sign to be 60 -square feet. In addition to changes to the appearance of
the sign, the applicant should be required to provide a revised sign elevation showing the
monument sign at a maximum height of 8 -feet and the face of the sign to be a maximum of 60 -
square feet. The revised sign elevation should be reviewed and approved the Design Review Board
and City Council prior to the issuance of a sign permit.

• The proposed monument sign includes an automated sign with an area of 14 -square feet. The total
sign area proposed on the monument sign is 63 -square feet. The percentage of sign area for the
electronic message center is 22%. Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-8(C)(8)(f) allows automated
signs to be a maximum of 20% of the face of the sign. The applicant should be required to provide
a revised monument sign elevation showing the automated sign with an area of 12 -square feet
(20% of the 60 -square foot maximum sign area allowed). The revised monument sign elevation
should be reviewed and approved by the Design Review Board and City Council prior to the
issuance of a sign permit.

b) Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-8(C)(2)(a) states a monument sign for a single -tenant building
shall not exceed 8 -feet in height.
• The Board does not support the proposed design of the monument sign because:
