Design Review Process
Design review for signs is considered a Type I decision subject to the requirements of Edmonds Community
Development Code (ECDC) 20.01.003 and ECDC 20.60 (Sign Code).
Analysis:
1.Location. The subject site is located at 22511 Highway 99, Suite #109, within the General Commercial (CG) and
Community Business (BC) zones. The site is designated as Highway 99 Corridor in the Edmonds
Comprehensive Plan. The proposal is subject to the general criteria found in the sign code (ECDC 20.60) and the
design guidelines within the Comprehensive Plan.
2.Sign type. The proposed wall-mounted sign is a permitted sign type in the Highway 99 area. The site is
permitted to have one sign per tenant space. The proposed sign will be the only wall-mounted sign for Suite 109.
3.Size. The maximum allowed area of wall signs within the CG and BC zones is 1 square foot per lineal foot of
attached wall or tenant space. The applicant has stated that the tenant space is 24 lineal feet. Thus, the maximum
allowed sign area for the tenant space is 24 square feet. The plans indicate that the sign will be 21.15 square feet.
Thus, the proposed sign complies with the square footage requirement for wall signs.
4.Color. The proposed wall sign includes a blue and white logo and black channel letters. These are acceptable
colors for this site along the Highway 99 Corridor. The applicant had originally proposed a new lexan tenant
sign with an orange background; however, it was determined that this would not be consistent with the white
backgrounds of all other existing tenant signs. The applicant decided not to replace the tenant sign and to retain
the existing tenant sign with a white background.
5.Height. Wall signs may be a maximum of 14’ high or the height of the face of the building. In this case, the top
of the sign will be less than the height of the face of the building and will comply with the height requirements.
6.Illumination. The sign will be internally illuminated, which is allowed for signs within the Highway 99 Corridor.
Decision:
Based on the facts and conclusions of this report, staff finds that the design review for this project (File
APPROVED
No. BLD20100336) is .
I have reviewed the application for compliance with the Edmonds Community Development Code.

Appeals:
Design review decisions by staff are only appealable to the extent that the applicable building permit or
development approval is an appealable decision under the provisions of the ECDC. Design review by staff is not in
itself an appealable decision.
