ITEM SUMMARY: In 2008, the Design Review Board approved the installation of attached
signage and a change in building colors . The applicant is requesting to redesign the east
façade facing Earl Rudder Freeway South and 10 percent of the north and south facades.
The applicant is also request to add additional signage of 50 square feet. As the building is
located in the Wolf Pen Creek zoning district, the Design Review Board is required to approve
building elevations and signage.
REVIEW CRITERIA:
The proposal meets the minimum technical requirements of the Unified Development
Ordinance (UDO). In accordance with the UDO, the Design Review Board shall evaluate the
building elevations and signage according to the following criteria:
1. Lighting: Building lighting will not project horizontally. The applicant proposes three
different lighting types. Each pilaster will have a sconce as shown in detail 10. The
walls will have sconces shown in detail 8. Each sign will have fixtures that direct light
towards the sign. All fixtures are of neutral color.
2. Building design: The building is comprised of brick, EIFS, stone, and metal. Neutral
colors are proposed for EIFS and existing brick will be cleaned and stained. Stone will be
used as material for pilasters. The proposed canopy has a metal frame with vinyl canopy.
In relation to the non-residential architectural standards, the building provides stone
pilasters, a canopy, and wall plane projection with a four-foot in depth.
3. Signage: Total square footage of existing signage is 283 square feet. With 248 feet
along the public entry façade, attached signage is limited to 500 square feet. The
applicant is proposing an additional 50 square feet for a total of 333 square feet of
attached signage. The additional “arcade” sign will match existing signage.

Applicable Review Criteria
This district is designed to promote development that is appropriate along Wolf Pen Creek, which, upon
creation was a predominantly open and undeveloped area challenged by drainage, erosion, and flooding
issues. Development proposals are designed to encour age the public and private use of Wolf Pen Creek
and the development corridor as an active and passive recreational area while maintaining an appearance
consistent with the Wolf Pen Creek Master Plan.
The following supplemental standards apply to this project:
1. Lighting.
a. Exterior lighting shall be part of the architectural concept. Fixtures, standards, and all exposed
accessories shall be harmonious with building design. Light fixtures shall be compatible with
fixtures used elsewhere in the district.
2. Building Design.
a. Architectural style is not restricted. Evaluation of the appearance of a project shall be based on
the quality of its design and relationship to surroundings.
b. Buildings shall have good scale and be in harmonious conformance with permanent
neighboring development.
c. Materials shall be selected for harmony of the building with adjoining buildings.
d. Materials shall be selected for suitability to the type of buildings and the design in which they
are used. Buildings shall use the same materials, or those that are architecturally harmonious,
for all building walls and other exterior building components wholly or partly visible from public
ways.
e. Materials shall be of durable quality.
f. In any design in which the structural frame is exposed to view, the structural materials shall be
compatible within themselves and harmonious with their surroundings.
g. Building components, such as windows, doors, eaves, and parapets, shall have good
proportions and relationships to one another.
h. Colors shall be harmonious and shall use only compatible accents.
i. Mechanical equipment or other utility hardware on roof, ground, or buildings shall be screened
from public view with materials harmonious with the building, or they shall be so located as not
to be visible from any public ways.
j. Monotony of design in single or multiple building projects shall be avoided. Variation of detail,
form, and siting shall be used to provide visual interest. In multiple building projects, variable
siting or individual buildings may be used to prevent a monotonous appearance.
3. Signs.
a. Sign Standards.
i. Non-residential projects shall follow the requirements of allowed signage for the zoning
district appropriate for the specific use in additional to meeting the standa rds listed
below.
b. Design Criteria.
i. The Design Review Board shall evaluate all proposed signage according to the
following criteria:

building and site to which it principally relates.
Page 2
2) Every sign shall have good scale and proportion in its design and in its visual
relationship to buildings and surroundings.
3) The colors, materials, and lighting of every sign shall be restrained and
harmonious with the building and site to which it principally relates.
4) The number of graphic elements on a sign shall be held to the minimum
needed to convey the sign's major message and shall be composed in
proportion to the area of the sign face.
5) Each sign shall be compatible with signs on adjoining premises and shall not
compete for attention.
6) Identification signs of a prototype design and corporation logos shall conform
to the criteria for all other signs.
