Current tenants include (but not limited to) Coldwell Banker, Saratoga Corner Café, and Cornerstone Title Company. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Adopt Resolution No.19-009 approving the proposed sign program subject to conditions of approval included in Attachment 1. Pursuant to City Code Section 15-30.160 (c), the Planning Commission shall review and approve or deny all sign program applications. PROJECT DATA Gross/Net Site Area: 108,900 sq. ft. gross/net (2.5 acres) Average Site Slope: 2% General Plan Designation: CR (Commercial Retail) Zoning: CN (Neighborhood Commercial) SITE CHARACTERISTICS AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION Site Description The subject property is located at the intersection of Prospect Road and Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road in the CN (Neighborhood Commercial) zoning district. The site is currently developed with two buildings. The building parallel to Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road is dedicated to retail and the building adjacent to Prospect Road is reserved for office uses. The adjacent Union 76 service station is located on a separate parcel and owned by a separate entity and is not included in the proposed sign program. Project Description In November 1989, the Planning Commission approved a sign program for the site which included wall signs for the retail building and two freestanding signs – one adjacent to the Saratoga- Sunnyvale Road street frontage and the other along the Prospect Road street frontage. The Planning Commission approved a variance (V-89-039) for two freestanding signs as parcels in the Saratoga-Sunnyvale Sign District are limited to one freestanding sign. A copy of the existing sign program is included as Attachment 2. The purpose of a sign program is to achieve a consistent theme and visual harmony among all permanent signs erected on a site and is used to create standard sign design guidelines for projects with multiple buildings or tenants. After a sign program is approved, tenants may submit an administrative sign application for a new sign, including both illuminated and non-illuminated signs, for staff review to ensure that the sign is consistent with the sign program. New illuminated signs that are not part of an approved sign program will require review and approval by the Planning Commission. Per Section 15-30.160 (j) of the City Code, any modifications to a sign program shall require a new application. 7 Report to the Planning Commission 12029 Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road-Application #PSP18-0001 April 10, 2019 Page | 3 Proposed Sign Program The proposed Sign Program includes both wall signs and freestanding signs. As previously mentioned, the site contains a retail building and an office building. The office building on the site was not included in the original sign program and the proposed revision to the sign program includes the office building. Each building will have a different wall sign requirement regarding construction and illumination. The office building is located behind the retail building and these businesses would have internally illuminated channel letters to improve identification as reviewed from Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road where the retail building will have externally illuminated surface mounted letters. The location requirement of the wall signs for each building has been provided in the proposed sign program (Attachment 3). A comparison of the requirements in the existing and proposed sign program are as follows: Existing Sign Program (Retail Building) Proposed Sign Program (Retail Building) Letter Size Max letter height 12” (single line or stacked) Letter Size Max letter height 15” (single line) Construction Individual channel letters with acrylic faces Construction Individual 1/4-inch thick metal or acrylic letters – surface mounted Illumination Internally illuminated with neon Illumination External goose neck lighting Colors White colored letters Dark bronze returns and trim cap Colors Sign color/font approved by property owner Area 1/2 square foot per linear foot of frontage or 40 square feet, whichever is less Area 1/2 square foot per linear foot of frontage or 40 square feet, whichever is less Existing Sign Program (Office Building) Proposed Sign Program (Office Building) Office building not included in sign program Letter Height Max letter height 15” (single line) Construction Individual channel letters with acrylic faces Illumination Internally illuminated LED Colors Dark bronze returns with black trim cap Sign color/font approved by property owner Area 1/2 square foot per linear foot of frontage or 40 square feet, whichever is less. 8 Report to the Planning Commission 12029 Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road-Application #PSP18-0001 April 10, 2019 Page | 4 Existing Sign Program (Freestanding Sign – Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road) Proposed Sign Program (Freestanding Sign – Saratoga- Sunnyvale Road) Sign Base Concrete base painted brown (Clay Bank) color Sign Base Concrete base painted brown or tan color Letter Size 6 inches by 7 1/8 inches Letter Size Max letter height 16” (single line or stacked) Construction Surface mounted cast aluminum letters Construction Letter printed onto duranodic bronze face aluminum Illumination Externally illuminated with spot lights Illumination Externally illuminated with spot lights Colors White colored letters/Clarendon font Colors Sign color/font approved by property owner Sign Area 24 square feet Sign Area 15 square feet Existing Sign Program (Freestanding Sign – Prospect Road) Proposed Sign Program (Freestanding Sign – Prospect Road) Sign Base Concrete base painted brown (Clay Bank) color Sign Base Concrete base painted brown or tan color Letter Size 6 inches by 7 1/8 inches Letter Size Max Letter Height 8” (single line or stacked) Construction Surface mounted cast aluminum letters Construction Letter printed onto duranodic bronze face aluminum Illumination Externally illuminated with spot lights Illumination Externally illuminated with spot lights Colors White colored letters/Clarendon font Colors Sign color/font approved by property owner Sign Area 24 square feet Sign Area 25 square feet FINDINGS The findings required for issuance of a sign program approval pursuant to City Code Section 15- 30.160 (e) are set forth below and the applicant has met the burden of proof to support making all the required findings: 1.

The sign program has been conditioned to comply with Article 15-30 (Signs) and the regulations in the zoning district.

The sign program requires that wall signs be dimensioned individual letters constructed of a durable material (metal, or acrylic). Signs will be located along the fascia of the building and will not extend above the ridge line of a building which are consistent with the City’s current sign regulations. This finding can be made in the affirmative. 4. The signs governed by the sign program are compatible with: a) other nearby signs; b) the building and/or site upon which it is located; and c) adjacent str uctures and the general vicinity. Compatibility shall be determined and limited to the relationships of the elements of form, proportion, scale, color, materials, surface treatment, overall sign size and height, and the size and style of lettering. The sign program regulates the location, size, design, and illumination of the signs such that they will not adversely affect the quality or character of the surrounding area. This finding can be made in the affirmative. Neighbor Notification and Correspondence A public notice was sent to property owners within 500 feet of the site. In addition, the public hearing notice and description of the project was published in the Saratoga News.
