WINCHESTER BOULEVARD IN A P-D (PLANNED DEVELOPMENT) ZONING DISTRICT. APPLICATION OF MR. BILL HAGMAN, ON BEHALF OF THE HAGMAN GROUP. FILE NO.: PLN2006-44. 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 PLN2006-44: 1. The master sign plan will provide a consistent design throughout the project site and will help the public identify businesses on the site. 2. The proposed signs, as conditioned, are architecturally compatible in design and consistent with the proposed project. 3. None of the proposed signs have flashing, moving or rotating parts or lights. 4. Sign illumination will be provided internally within the signs or externally concealed in shrubbery. 5. The freestanding monument sign is 14 feet in height and will be visible from Winchester Boulevard. 6. The applicant has demonstrated that the signage is similar to other similarly situated businesses in the area. 7. The project qualifies as Categorically Exempt project under Section 15311, Class 11 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pertaining to the construction or placement of on-premise signs. Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the Planning Commission further finds and concludes that: 1. The signs are consistent with the requirements of the Sign Ordinance. 2. The size, shape, color, and placement of the signs are compatible with the buildings they identify and are compatible with the visual characteristics of the surrounding area so as not to detract from or cause to decrease the value or quality of adjacent properties. 3. Both the location of the proposed signs and the design of their visual elements (lettering, words, figures, colors, decorative motifs, spacing, and proportions) are legible under normal viewing conditions.

The location and design of the proposed signs do not obscure from view or unduly detract from existing or adjacent signs. 5. The location and design of the proposed signs (e.g., size, shape, illumination, and color) are compatible with the visual characteristics of the surrounding area so as not to detract from or cause to decrease the value or quality of adjacent properties. 6. The location and design of the proposed signs, located in close proximity to any residential district, do not adversely affect the quality or character of the residential area. 7. No substantial evidence has been presented from which a reasonable argument could be made that shows that the project, as currently presented and subject to the required conditions of approval, will have a significant adverse impact on the environment. 8. There is a reasonable relationship and a rough proportionality between the conditions of approval and the impacts of the project. THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission approves an Administrative Planned Development Permit (PLN2006-26) for an existing multi-tenant commercial/retail building on property owned by Keon and Michele Vossoughi Trustees located at 1769-1783 S.
