Board OKs Monument Sign at 105 N. Bend St., Conditions Set to Meet PD Setbacks
Summary
After questions about setbacks and visibility-triangle requirements under the property's Planned Development (PD), the board approved a certificate of appropriateness for a monument sign at 105 North Bend Street provided the sign is located at least 10 feet from the property line.
The Historic Preservation Advisory Board approved a certificate of appropriateness to install a monument sign at 105 North Bend Street, imposing a condition that the sign be located at least 10 feet from the property line to meet PD setback and visibility-triangle requirements.
Reyna presented the request, describing the building as a circa-1925 Tudor Revival and noting staff found the schematics and proposed placement met the applicable PD size and setback requirements and the Secretary of the Interior standards. Board members questioned the drawing, which showed the sign 6 feet from one property line, and asked staff to confirm PD minimums. Reyna and another member pulled up the PD language during the meeting and confirmed 10 feet from the property line and the visibility triangle as minimums.
The applicant (representing the owner) said the sign had been reduced in size and that they could move it back to meet zoning while preserving visibility. Marsha moved to approve the certificate of appropriateness with the condition that the sign be at least 10 feet from the property line; the motion was seconded and carried unanimously. The board asked staff to verify the final placement before installation.
