RE: PLAN REVIEW COMMENTSFOR PLANCHECK #BLD20140898
JACOBSEN’S MARINESIGNLOCATED AT 345 ADMIRAL WAY
Dear Mr. Heyes:
I have reviewed the above building permit applicationfor the Planning Division,and it was found
that the following information, corrections, or clarifications will need to be addressedbefore review
can continue:
Proposed Sign Area:
1.The maximum allowed total sign area for the siteis equivalentto one
square foot perlineal foot of wallcontaining the main public entrance. Based on the
dimensions indicated on the site planand confirmed with the building plans for the new
building (BLD20131338), this would yield a maximum total sign area for the siteof 92square
feet. The proposed sign area, however, is stated on the plans as 97.5 square feet, which
exceeds the maximum allowed sign area. Sincethe proposed sign is comprised of individually
mounted channel letters, you may calculate the area of each letter individually, which will
likely cause the proposed sign area to fall below the maximum allowed.Please revise the sign
area calculations in order to showthat the proposed sign will not exceed the maximum allowed
sign areaof 92 square feet. This calculation will also assist the business owner in determining
how much additional sign area is availableif they choose to add another sign in the future.
Illumination:
2.The plans state that the faces of the letters are opaque and will be halo
illuminated. It is assumed that the same method of illumination is proposed for the wheel;
however, please confirm if this is the case.
Sign Height:
3.Please indicate the height of the proposed signon the elevation view.
Please submit three copies of your revisedplan sheetsto a Development Services Permit
Coordinator. Our office hours are Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, between 8:00 am
and 4:30 pm, and Wednesdays between 8:00 am and noon.If you have any questions, feel freeto
contact me at (425) 771-0220.
Sincerely,
Development Services Department -Planning Division
