Having received all required documents, your application has been approved. Attached is a copy of the approved Sidewalk Sign Permit for your records. The attached permit allows you to retain your sign for; 1) as long as the Housing and Redevelopment Commission allows sidewalk signs to remain, 2) as long as the sign continues to meet the standards outlined within the Carlsbad Village Master Plan and Design Manual, and 3) as long as the sign is consistent with this permit approval. It is important to note that the Housing and Redevelopment Commission will complete an annual review of the sidewalk sign regulations to determine their continued applicability. If you should have any questions regarding the information contained in this letter, please call me at (760) 434-2817. Sincerely, CITY OF CARLSBAD MARC SANTOS Planning Assistant Attachment 2965 Roosevelt St., Ste.

Jaska ViaSat, Inc. Secretary Tristan Green Directors Maureen M. Ecke, Esq. Marissa Caulfield Mark Levy Cathy Boyle Asker February 18,2005 Rebeca Vazquez Housing Redevelopment Dept. City of Carlsbad 2965 Roosevelt Street, B Carlsbad, CA 92008 Dear Ms. Vazquez, You had responded by letter dated September 15,2004 to Children's Discovery Museum's sign request. This response will address these issues in the same format so WQ can complete the process that was initiated nearly a year ago. A) Application Processing Fee: Enclosed is a check for additional $7.00 B) Site Plan: In the site plan submitted with the permit request, it clearly shows 10 feet maintained over the entire length of the sidewalk in front of the building. I have included a Floor Plan that was used to obtain permits for tenant improvements. Since this is a city owned building, that we rent from your Housing & Redevelopment office, it surprises me that you do not have a copy. The frontage on Christiansen Way is 99'9" and there is an unoccupied storefront (leased by Beach Bound) in the 39'4" from the southeast comer, which leaves 65'5" of building frontage for museum use. C) Sign Permit: We currently have a sign hanging on the inside of the storefront window above our front door. That is our "building sign" and my understanding is that it does not need a permit. D) Business License: Children's Discovery Museum is a non-profit corporation under IRS section 501(c)(3) and, as such, does not need to pay City of Carlsbad for a business license. Please call me directly on my cell phone (760) 889-6234 if there are any ftirther questions so that we can expedite completion of this process.
