PC Res 3329RESOLUTION NO. 3329
BEING A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF CAMPBELL APPROVING A SIGN EXCEPTION TO ALLOW
A SECOND WALL SIGN (PLN2001-06) FOR DENTPRO ON PROPERTY
LOCATED AT 2205 S. WINCHESTER BOULEVARD IN A C-2-S
(GENERAL COMMERCIAL) ZONING DISTRICT. APPLICATION OF
ROSCIANO CONSTRUCTION, INC., ON BEHALF OF DENTPRO. FILE
NO. PLN2001-06.
After notification and public hearing, as specified by law, and after presentation by the
Community Development Director, proponents and opponents, the hearing was closed.
After due consideration of all evidence presented, the Planning Commission did find as follows
with respect to application PLN2001-06:
1. The proposed wall signs style and design are architecturally compatible with the building.
2. The proposed aggregate sign area of 32.8 square feet is less than 38.5 square feet permitted
under the sign ordinance.
3. The proposed sizes of the wall signs are proportional to the building and the use would not
be adequately identified with only one wall sign.
The approval of two wall signs versus a wall sign and a freestanding sign is desirable in this
situation due to the proximity of the building to the street frontage and the limited area for a
freestanding sign.
o
The location of the proposed wall signs will not comprise the architectural style of the
building and will reduce the need for a freestanding sign due to the layout and location of
this site and building.
The proposed wall sign will promote the economic viability of the City by providing
adequate identification and visibility of the new business, and will also best serve the public
welfare and be in keeping with the principles and purposes of the City's Sign Ordinance.
Based on the foregoing findings of fact, the Planning Commission further finds and concludes
that:
1. The proposed wall signs are consistent with the purposes of the Sign Ordinance by
preserving and improving the visual character of the community.
2. The proposed signs will not be detrimental to the public welfare or persons in the
neighborhood or the City as a whole and allows for reasonable business identification.
