Zoning District: NG -2 Commercial Northgate
Location: 110 Nagle Street
Applicant: Jin Gangshaw, Business Owner
Item Summary: The applicant is requesting permission to change out the existing free
standing sign face for a new one (existing freestanding sign = 4' x 6' = 24 sq. ft.), as well
as replacing the attached signage with a 32' x 4' (128 - sq.ft.) attached sign.
NG -2 Commercial Northgate only allows attached signs. In limited circumstances;
(Section 7.4).
However, in this case the freestanding and attached signage was installed prior to the
Northgate Sign Regulations and would be considered grandfathered

guidance on the placement and design of signs as follows:
§ Signs should relate in placement and size to other building elements.
§ Signs should not obscure other building elements such as window, cornices, or
decorative details.
§ Sign material, style, and color should compliment the building facade.
§ Individual shop signs in a single storefront should relate to each other in design, size,
color, placement on the building, and lettering style.
§ Wood or metal is recommended.
§ Illuminated plastic signs are strongly discouraged.
§ Letters exceeding 14" in height are discouraged in pedestrian oriented areas.
