THIS PROPOSAL: (None)

PROPOSAL:
.
The general theme of the Design Review Overlay District is to encourage the use of American
Northwest and 1870 through 1930 architectural styles and the use of those materials, graphics
and architectural designs set forth in the DR chapter.
Signage for any project shall provide for business identification and minimize clutter and
confusion on and off the site. Signs are to provide effective and necessary business
identification systems adapted to the building design.
.
.
Section 8-2A-8(K)(1)
No signs shall be erected or maintained in any district as established by the Zoning
Ordinance except those signs specifically enumerated in this Chapter. The number and area
of signs as outlined in this Chapter are intended to be maximum standards which do not
necessarily ensure architectural compatibility. Therefore, in addition to the enumerated
standards, consideration shall be given to a sign's relationship to the overall appearance of
the subject property as well as the surrounding community. Compatible design, simplicity
and sign effectiveness are to be used in establishing guidelines for sign approval.

Section 8-2A-8(C)(5)
Sign materials and overall appearance shall compliment with the building architecture and
colors as determined by the Design Review Board.
C. DISCUSSION:
. The Camille Beckman facility is a three phased project with includes manufacturing, production,
packaging, and office facilities, English cottage style shops, showrooms, bed and breakfast
accommodations, gardens, amphitheater, and other similar uses. Currently the manufacturing,
production, packaging, and office facility has been constructed. The Camille Beckman facility
and future construction phases are multi-tenant buildings and closely resembles a shopping
center. Therefore, a fifteen foot (15') high monument sign and multiple wall signs are permitted
within this development. The applicant has submitted a master sign plan for the entire site.
The applicant's representative has indicated that all future buildings proposed within this
development will be required to use a twenty three inch (23") high by seventy inch (70") wide
high density urethane building wall sign that will match the detail shown on Exhibit A (attached
hereto and incorporated herein by reference).
Only one directional sign is proposed within this development to be located at the southeast
corner of State Highway 44 and Old Valley Road. No other directional signs are proposed and
none are approved with this application.
All tenant panels on the main entry monument sign are required to be five feet nine inches (5'
9") wide by nine inches (9") high. The tenant panels are required to be mounted on! the expanded
metal monument face.
No ground mounted light fixtures are proposed to be used to illuminate the monum~nt signs.
The main entry monument sign is located within the center landscape island of Ro~ebud Lane at
the intersection of State Highway 44 and Rosebud Lane. The directional mon~ment sign is
located near the southeast corner of State Highway 44 and Old Valley Road. Cuqently there is
three hundred (300) square feet (approximately) of grass proposed around the base þf each of the
monument signs. The applicant meets Eagle City Code with regard to the area of landscaping
required at the base of the monument signs, however, pursuant to past action ~ the Design
Review Board and City Council, plant material other then just grass is required to be installed at
the base of monument signs. The applicant should be required to provide a revi$ed landscape
plan showing plant material with greater height at the base of each of the monument signs. The
revised landscape plan should be reviewed and approved by staff and one member of the Design
Review Board prior to the City accepting a sign permit for this site.
