(See sec. 14, Ordinance 1638) -
For the purposes. of this case, the sign should meet all of the above criteria as well.
The proposed -sign will be 10' tall .and be located on the Rock Prairie frontage near the
property line approximately: 40' off of the road.
The church could have a sign that meets R-1 restrictions without additional P&Z
review. However, these restrictions would limit the school to 32 square feet with a
maxmum:.height of 8'. The school is requesting to use C-1 requirements, which would
allow a sign in accordance with 'the school's needs. The_sign does comply wifh C-1
sign restrictions and is in fact well below. the maximum area and height that would
ordinarily: be allowed on commercially zoned property.
