Subject:Sign Proposal for Edmonds United Methodist Church (BLD20170567)

Hi Roy,
I understand that you had some questions on the comments I sent out regarding your application on
behalf of United Methodist Church for a new monument sign (BLD20170567). Upon discussing your
proposal further with the Planning Manager, it was determined that the maximum allowed sign area
for this sign is that of a “group sign” since the church is home to several different nonprofit
programs. Thus, the maximum allowed sign area for the proposed sign is 48 square feet. Also, it
was determined that the portion of the sign stating “Edmonds United Methodist Church” can be
internally illuminated; however, the illumination may only light the letters. Thus, the background of
this sign face must be opaque so that no light is emitted through the background.
I hope this helps clarify our requirements. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
Sincerely,
Jen
