Staff Review Comments No. 1
RUDY'S BBQ (SDSP)-13-00900152
1. To create and preserve a distinct character in the Wolf Pen Creek District, standards
have been adopted to ensure compatibility between the natural and built environment. It
is Staff's recommendation that alternative colors be selected. The current selection will
necessitate a Staff recommendation of denial to the Design Review Board.
2. In 1999, similar colors and monument sign were proposed to the Design Review Board.
DRB denied the proposed colors and approved a freestanding sign with dark red or
maroon letters on a white background and for the arrow to be white or cream -tone.
3. Section 5.8.A.11.c.2 of the UDO states that "signs shall have good scale and proportion
in its design and in its visual relationship to buildings and surroundings." Staff believes
that the 'ribbon' aluminum signs (Sign C) is not consistent with this ordinance.
4. Any alternatives may be presented for Staff review before presenting to DRB. Please
contact me as soon as possible to discuss which meeting agenda this will be on.
