Council approves sign‑standard amendments for Jovi’s at West Centerville with reductions and conditions
Summary
Council approved a PD amendment to modify sign standards for a retail site at 1040 W. Centerville, including a pylon sign up to 65 feet and a reduced front wall sign (~570 sq ft), with landscaping and masonry base requirements; approval was unanimous.
Planning staff presented a request from FSG Signs on behalf of Jovi's and H‑E‑B to amend sign standards for a multi‑tenant retail center at 1040 West Centerville. The applicant initially sought large wall signs and a pylon up to 65 feet; staff and plan commission negotiated reductions and recommended conditions including masonry to the base of the pylon, an eight‑foot landscape buffer along Centerville and reduced wall sign area.
Applicant representatives said two poorly maintained existing signs on the property would be removed and replaced with a visually cohesive sign package designed to draw customers from the freeway. Council discussed scale and precedent; the council approved staff recommendations with a condition reducing the front wall sign by roughly 20% (to 569.712 sq ft) and setting the pylon at 65 ft; the vote was unanimous.
