5. NEW BUSINESS:
A. DR-42-08 - Modification to the Monument Sign and Two Building Wall Signs
For Subway - Subway Development: Subway Development, represented by Neil
Caldwell with Idaho Electric Signs Inc., is requesting design review approval to modify
the existing monument sign and two building wall signs for the Subway restaurant. The
modification includes removing the two internally illuminated building wall signs and the
1
internally illuminated monument sign and replacing them with halo illuminated signs and
reducing the height of the monument sign. The site is located on the northwest comer of
East State Street and 2nd Street at 182 East State Street.
Debbie Anderson, Idaho Electric Signs, 6528 Supply Way, Boise, addressed the Board
filling in for Neil Caldwell. They are asking for approval to modify the Subway signage
at the store on State Street. They will be updating it and bringing it more into
compliance. They will remove the two wall signs and replace those with halo illuminated
letters. They will also remove and replace the monument sign. They will be exceeding
the south elevation by a small amount and would like approval for that. They will also be
modifying the monument sign and the posts will be taller than the ordinance allows. Ted
Vanegas, Planner, pointed out three items for consideration. The south facing wall sign is
approx 11 square feet too large and staff recommends it be reduced to the maximum
square footage. The monument sign posts are too tall but staff feels they enhance the
sign, no staff recommendation. The landscaping which exists and that which is proposed
may not be appropriate for a sign of that size and staff would like that to be considered.
General discussion of the board indicated the desire to see the signs brought into
compliance and the proposed landscaping should be reviewed. A new elevation for the
post issue will need to be drawn and the staff and board members could review the
changes outside of a regular meeting.
McCullough moved to approve DR-42-08, Modification to the Monument Sign and
Two Building Wall Signs For Subway - Subway Development with the site specific
and standard condition approval with the following modifications to the site specific
conditions. Site specific condition #4, new elevations will be drawn for the
monument sign showing the entire dimension of the sign brought into compliance
with the four foot height restriction. This new elevation will be approved by staff
and two members of the Design Review Board. Site specific condition #5, a new
landscape plan will be drawn showing the two existing barberry on the east side of
the sign to be removed and the burning bush on the west side of the sign to be
removed and new landscaping in its place consistent with the proposed design. This
new landscape plan will be approved by staff and one member of the Design Review
Board. The motion was seconded by Barnes. Question on the wall signage indicates
its remedy is in the first condition and covers it. ALL A YES. MOTION CARRIED.
B. DR-43-08 - Common Area Landscapine: for the Lakemoor Lifestvle Center -
DMB Investments/B.W. Eae:le: DMB Investments and B.W. Eagle, represented by
