The new <br /> tenant, Spectrum Photographic Services, will be located between <br /> the Big Wheel Rossi store and the Players Club Billiard Hall . <br /> The property is located in a PUD, therefore, allowed uses and <br /> other restrictions are stipulated through a PUD agreement. In <br /> this case, the use is permitted however, signage is subject to <br /> review and approval by the Planning Commission and City <br /> Council . In PUD' s, the underlying land use usually determines <br /> the amount of signage allowed. The underlying land use in this <br /> case is HB, Highway Business . It is, therefore, appropriate to <br /> use the C3 Highway Commercial signage requirements for this use. <br /> • The applicant is requesting 2 wall signs . The sign located on <br /> the front of the building would measure 36 square feet and <br /> would be illuminated while the sign located on the back of the <br /> building would measure 16 square feet and would not be <br /> illuminated. According to the Elk River City Code, this <br /> request is consistent with the signage allowed in the C3 zoning <br /> district. In addition, the existing signage for the other <br /> tenants is similar in size. <br /> Staff feels this is a reasonable request and is recommending <br /> approval subject to the applicant receiving a building permit <br /> before erecting said signs . <br /> 111 <br /> 720 Dodge Avenue N.W., Elk River, Minnesota 55330 (612) 441-7420 <br />
