The PRC discussed the proposed color change to the front and back portion of the building, as well as the existing sign ordinance requiring signs to include one of the predominate colors of the building. The building is a cream color, and the proposed sign does not include a cream color; it includes blue, yellow, orange, and white. Although the sign has four colors and the ordinance allows only three, the current city policy is that "white" is not a color unless the predominate color of the building is white. The applicant proposed to add the Sedona Clay color in order to meet the sign ordinance requirement, but stated they would rather leave the building as it is currently. When asked about why they did not change their sign colors, Parvis stated that the sign is a nationally recognized sign with its logo colors and would rather change the color of the building, than request a variance for the sign. After further discussion regarding the proposed Sedona Clay color, the PRC determined that painting the building with the orange color would detract from its current attractiveness. The PRC also determined that the building was really painted a neutral color and therefore did not have a predominate color that should be included in the sign. Commissioner Horlen motioned to not paint the front and back portion of the building with the Sedona Clay color. He also reiterated that the white in the sign is a non -color and that would make the sign have only three colors. Commissioner Happ seconded the motion, which passed 3-0.
