The original intent of this ordinance was based on visibility for traffic at the posted speed limits, and therefore the size of the building should not be a factor. It was also aqreed that there should not be a clause in the ordinance which would allow the Zoning Administrator to approve a trade off between wall and free standing signage for large commercial buildings_ It was agreed, however. that wall slgnage for large commercial buildings, exceeding 50,000 square feet! could be larger, since these buildings may have larger parking lots, and the increase to 250 sq. ft. seemed to be appropriate.
