Planning commission approves AudioNova sign with raised dimensional letters, limits on door decals
Summary
The Macedonia Planning Commission approved a sign package for AudioNova at 640 East Aurora Road, requiring raised (non‑lit) dimensional letters and administrative confirmation that door/window decals meet the city's 25% glass coverage limit.
The Macedonia Planning Commission on March 17 approved a sign package for AudioNova at 640 East Aurora Road, allowing two wall signs and window/door decals with conditions. The commission required non‑lit, raised dimensional letters for the wall signs and asked staff to administratively verify that the proposed door and window decals comply with the 25% maximum coverage for ground‑floor glazing.
The action follows a presentation by planning staff member (mister Francis), who told the commission the two proposed wall signs total about 21 square feet — well below the roughly 60 square feet that would be permitted for the tenant's frontage. Staff asked the applicant to provide exact dimensions for the door/window decals so staff could confirm compliance with the 25% limitation.
Commission discussion centered on materials and appearance. Planning staff recommended dimensional (raised) letters rather than flat letters on a backer, saying dimensional letters are consistent with recent approvals in the Town Center/commons area. Commissioners asked that the signs be non‑lit; the motion approving the sign package explicitly requires non‑lit dimensional letters and administrative confirmation of decal area before installation.
The motion to approve with those conditions carried without recorded opposition.
The applicant (Cathy Clark, applicant representative) and planning staff agreed to provide any remaining drawings or dimensions to city staff for administrative sign permit review.
