In accordance with ECC 8-2A-3 and considering that the intersection of Highway 55 and 44 at this location includes approximately 40,000 average vehicle trips per day, it is the Design Review Board's opinion that allowing a more readable sign at this location will attract travelers to turn into the CEDA/TDA/DDA older area of the city and therefore, Eagle City code with regard to the height and size limitations should be relaxed accordingly. Therefore, the Design Review Board recommends that Site Specific Condition #1 be stricken as written and be replaced with the following: New Site Specific Condition #1: The sign is approved as submitted with the square footage of sign area for this monument sign along Highway 44, not to exceed 120 square feet. Additionally, if the Eagle City Code is amended to allow a taller and larger monument sign the applicant may submit new plans showing the additional height and size for this sign and the plans shall be approved by staff with no design review application being required as long as the originally approved design elements remain the same. Site specific condition #4: Comply with any applicable conditions of DR-46-99. Site specific condition #5: The Design Review Board suggests modifying the landscaping for more visibility for the sign area. If the landscaping is modified as suggested, provide revised landscape plans for review by staff and one Design Review Board member. This motion includes all of the standard conditions of approval. Seconded by Sayer. ALL AYE...MOTION CARRIES. 6. REPORTS: A. Design Review Board: Sign ordinance being proposed by the Chamber.
