AGENDA ITEM NO. 3: Presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding
attached signage for Rudy's BBQ located at 504 Harvey Road in the Wolf Pen Creek
Design District. Case # 13- 00900152 (Jenifer Paz)
Jenifer Paz, Staff Planner presented the item stating that the proposed sign package, which
consisted of three attached signs, met the requirements of the sign ordinance related to
allowable sign area. Staff recommended approval of all signs with the exception of the
ribbon sign (sign B). Staff expressed concern that the ribbon sign, located along the primary
entry fagade, was not consistent with the Wolf Pen Creek design criteria due to its scale and
Pagel of 3
proportion. The sign was proposed above the main entry fagade spanning a length of 34 feet
in length.
There was general discussion about the ribbon sign (sign B) and how it related to other signs
in the Wolf Pen Creek Design District along Harvey Road. Mr. Schloss and Ms. McGrail had
concerns regarding the appropriateness of sign B in the Wolf Pen Creek District.
Mr. Mather motioned to approved signs A, B and C. Mr. Kinnard seconded the motion,
which passed (5 -2) with Mr. Schloss and Ms. McGrail in opposition.
Mr. Goodwin left the meeting before agenda item no. 4.
AGENDA ITEM NO. 4: Presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding an
attached sign for Spirit Halloween located at 410 Harvey Road in the Wolf Pen Creek
Design District. Case # 13- 00900185 (Morgan Hester)
Morgan Hester, Staff Planner presented the staff report proposing an attached sign. The sign
will be an attached sign containing orange and black that will be lighted. The applicant
doesn't want to apply for a banner permit due to the following reasons.
• The banner permit is only for 36 square feet
• Is only valid for two weeks.
• The applicant does not want to pay the $200 every two weeks for a banner permit.
The staff's recommendation is for approval with the requirement that the sign is removed by
November 10, 2013.
Mr. Mather motioned to approve as recommended by the staff. Mr. Kinnard seconded the
motion, which passed unopposed (6 -0).
