Your application has been reviewed and determined to be incomplete for further processing. At this time, the application and payment for related fees are being returned to you for further action. Once you have provided the additional information requested, you may resubmit your application to the Housing and Redevelopment Department. A. Site Plan - The required site plan serves as the official document regulating the location and design of the sidewalk sign. The following information must be included on your site plan or as an attachment: a) Indicate the location of the existing tree and surrounding grate on the sidewalk; and b) Indicate the exact dimension from the edge of the sidewalk sign to the edge of the building. Please note that established regulations for freestanding signs mandate that a clear area of at least five feet (5') in width must be maintained for pedestrian use over the entire length of the sidewalk in front of the business. B. Buildinq Elevations - All existing building signage for a business must conform to the sign standards set forth within the Village Master Plan and Design Manual before a permit will be approved for the sidewalk sign. Therefore, in addition to the site plan, two copies of building elevations which clearly reflect the location and total amount of existing signage on the business building or property must be submitted. These plans must include the size and type of each sign on the existing building or property and the existing sign copy. C. Propertv Owner Statement - The business is located within the Village Professional Center, which is considered to be a business arcade. A business arcade may only be permitted one sidewalk sign for the entire property. This sign may include the names of all the businesses within the arcade, but individual sidewalk signs for each business within the arcade are not permitted. If the proposed sidewalk sign is 2965 Roosevelt St., Ste. B • Carlsbad, CA 92008-2389 • (619) 434-2810/2811 • FAX (619) 720-2037 Mr. William Stevenson 01/06/99 Page 2 approved, then additional requests for similar signs on the property will not be considered. Since this limits the actions of the other business owners within the building, the property owners should be made aware of this restriction. Therefore, along with your application, please submit a written statement from the property owners indicating they understand approval of the sidewalk sign for your business will constitute the only sidewalk sign permitted for the property. In closing, I want to provide clarification on the location of the proposed sign for future reference. Existing regulations restrict the location of freestanding signs to the area directly in front of the business to which they relate. Since the business/building fronts on Madison Street the freestanding sign technically should be located on the same street. However, a site inspection has shown that there is no sidewalk area in front of the building along Madison that doesn't provide direct vehicular access to the existing parking in front of the building. Therefore, it is the determination of the Housing and Redevelopment Director to allow the sidewalk sign directly in front of the side of the building facing Carlsbad Village Drive. Once the items contained in this letter are submitted, the Housing and Redevelopment Department will continue processing your application. As a reference tool, I have enclosed a copy of the Sidewalk/Freestanding Signs - Location and Development Criteria for your review. If you have any questions regarding the information contained in this letter, please contact me at (760) 434-2813. Sincerely, CITY OF CARLSBAD LORI H.
