Board approves signage requests for Cody Life Church and King's Carpet

Summary

The city approved a temporary banner and partial freestanding sign replacement for Cody Life Church at 1526 Rumsey Ave (banner limited to 180 days) and three attached wall signs for King's Carpet at 1601 Stampede Ave. Both approvals included staff conditions requiring sign permits and additional review if electrical/illumination work is proposed.

The Planning and Zoning Adjustment Board on Nov. 6 approved two separate signage requests.

At 1526 Rumsey Avenue, a new tenant, Cody Life Church, was allowed to display a temporary banner for up to 180 days and to replace part of an existing freestanding sign to add their branding. Staff recommended that any proposed illumination of the freestanding sign be reviewed and permitted; board approval included three staff recommendations, including that the banner be removed after 180 days and that the applicant obtain the required building permit for the sign work.

At 1601 Stampede Avenue, King's Carpet sought permission for three attached wall signs. Staff recommended approval with the condition that the applicant obtain a building sign permit prior to placement; the board approved the request by motion and voice vote.

Planning staff noted that if electrical work is needed for freestanding sign illumination, a building permit or electrical permit would be required and would be reviewed by the city during the permit process.
