Burnham Pacific Properties Inc.. Applicant: A request to modify the comprehensive sign program for Poway (Lucky's) Shopping Center to permit the use of new shop tenant wall sign colors and increase the linear coverage for shop tenant fascia signs. The center is located at 12624 Poway Road in the CG (Commercial General) zone. APN: 317-490-77,78,79,80,81 & 82 BACKGROUND Comprehensive sign standards were originally adopted for the subject center on June 20, 1984 and amended on August 8, 1984. Due to changes in market conditions and in consideration of the signing needs of new and existing tenants, the current owners of the center are petitioning for the inclusion of three new colors, plus the existing approved color of ivory, for use in channel lettering for shop tenant spaces. Approval is also sought for a change from 70 percent to 80 percent of shop leased frontage for sign coverage. FINDINGS Section 17.40.170 of the Zoning Ordinance requires City Council approval for comprehensive sign programs and their amendments. ACTION: 2 of 6 JAN 1 7 1995 Agenda Report January 17, 1995 Page 2 The most recently approved comprehensive sign programs for £reekside Plaza. and the Grant-Sapp center located near Wal-Mart, have each adopted a standardized copy style of individual channel lettering, allowing for the use of red. blue and yellow, in addition to white and with an allowance for the use of major chain tenant's recognized trademark signs. These programs also allow 80% coverage. The ~opted sign program for the Poway (Lucky) Shopping Center presently permits the use of ivory channel lettering only for shop tenants. Major tenants are permitted to display their standard wall signs. The existing standards permit 70 percent of the leased frontage to be used for signing. Some shop tenants find it difficult to fit their company name within the space. A change permitting 80 percent coverage will improve the situation for these businesses. The new channel letter colors being proposed are 2051 (blue). 2283 (red). and 2108 (green). All lettering will be Rohm and Haas type. Trim cap color being requested is black. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The sign program modification is exempt from environmental review under Category 11 or the CEQA Guidelines which include on-premises signs. None. ADDITIONAL PUBLIC NOTIFICATION AND CORRESPONOENCF None. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council approve the modification of CSP 85-01/ DR 84-18. subject to the conditions contained in the attached proposed resolution.
