CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT - ST . THERESE
PLANNING COMMISSION
REPORT N0: CUP87-25 SEPTEMBER 21 , 1987
PURPOSE: To review and recommend aetion on an application
for a Conditional Use Permit for a lesser setback and a
larger sign than allowed .
BACKGROUND :
Name of Applicant : St . Therese Care Center
Address of Property: 1011 Feltl Court
Present Zoning: R-4
Nature of Request: A 13 •35 square foot sign with a 10
foot westerly setback and a 10 foot southerly setback . ,
Reason for Request: To assure signage the elderly can
^ see and to assure that the elderly have a good sight
line .
The applicant , St . Therese , will soon be completing their
residential complex in south Hopkins . They are requesting
twa Cond�_�ional Use Permits: one to allow a larger sign than
permitted and a second to place the sign in a lesser
setback .
Ordinance 570 .48 states :
"Conditional Use Permit R-districts . Signs may be
permitted by Conditional Use Permit for public
parks and playgrounds , churches , synagogues ,
publie libraries , public museums , public and
parochial schools , municipal buildings , golf
courses , country clubs , community centers ,
colleges , universities and private schools ,
hospitals and sanitariums , based on the following
design eriteria and other conditions the City
Council may require:
a) size: The size shall be proportional to the size
of the facility, need for signage , frontage on
street(s) , location , visibility , and development
in the area . The maximum size should not exceed
— 60 square feet per sign surface with a maximum
area of 120 square feet per single sign .
IfQ.
CUP87-25
Page 2
---�
b) height : No free standing sign shall exceed
fifteen feet in height .
e) lighting:
1 . lighting shall be indirect or it shall be
backlighting
2 . neon lighting , flashing lighting , and/or
rotating lighting sign shall be prohibited .
d) design : signs attached to the building shall
be integrated with the building design and
architecture in terms of materials , colors ,
lighting and placement; signs not attached to
the buildings shall be architecturally
treated and coordinated with the principal
building by use of compatible materials and
design .
e) location: no free standing signs shall be
located less than 25 feet from any street right-
of-way line .
f) sign purpose : the principal purpose of the sign
permitted under this section shall be to
identify the public or institutional use made of
the property. "
�
Ordinance 570 . 47 states :
"Conditional Use Permit. Applications for other
proposed sign permits involving a lesser setback
than that required by the zoning code may be
granted only by and under a Conditional Use Permit
and undzr the applicable provisions and
regulations of conditional use requirements set
forth in the zoning code . The Conditional use
permits may require periodic reviews and may be
canceled for cause�t .
The applicants proposed sign is 13 •35 square feet . The
maximum size requirement is 12 square feet , but with a
conditional use permit a 60 square foot sign is allowed .
The applicant is proposing to locate the sign 10 feet from
the west and south property line on the northeast corner of
Feltl Court and Smetana Drive . Ordinance 520 . 11 states :
Traffic visibility. On corner lots in all districts except
�--�.
CUP87-25
Page 3
—�
B-2 and B-3 , no structure or planting in excess of 30 inches
above the abutting curb line shall be permitted within a
triangular area defined as follows: '�beginning at the
intersection of the projected curb lines of two intersecting
streets , thence 30 feet along one curb line , thence
diagonally to a point 30 feet from the point of beginning on
the other curb line , thence to the point of beginning" . The
sign will not be in this area.
The proposed sign will be shaped in a ' V' . The sign is
supported by a brick base , one foot high. There will be
brick columns on the sides of the sign . These columns are
3 ' 8" high and 1 foot in width .
The face of the sign will be made out of inetal . The face
will be painted dark $reen with white letters .
The sign is lit from a source in the ground .
ANALYSIS: The applicant is requesting a larger sign and a
lesser setback . A sign up to 60 square feet is allowed with
a Conditional Use Permit . In the past the Council has
^ granted a Conditional Use Permit for larger signs than
allowed by ordinance . The applicant has a large site which
will acc�mmodate a larger sign . The applicant has stated
the reason for the larger sign is for greater visibility
for the elderly.
The applicant is requesting place the sign with a 10 foot
setback from Smetana Road and a 10 foot setback from Feltl
Court . The Director of Engineering has reviewed the
placement of the sign and recommended at least a 10 foot
setback on the southerly lot line along Smetana Road . A car
coming from Feltl Court to Smetana Road would not have a
clear sight line down Smetana Road if the sign was located
in the proposed location .
ALTERNATIVES:
1 . Approve both conditional use permits as requested .
This alternative could allow the applicant a
larger sign and also a reasonable setback area for
traffic visibility .
2 . Approve the conditional use permit for a larger
sign . This alternative would allow a larger sign
and allow a better sight line to Smetana Road .
---�
CUP87-25
Page 4
---�
3 . Approve the conditional use permit for a lesser
setback . This alternative could create a traffic
hazard because of limiting the sight line to
Smetana Road .
4 . Deny both conditional use permits . This
alternative would allow the applicant a 12 square
foot sign with the proper setback .
5 • Continue for further information .
RECOMMENDATION: I recommend Alternative No . 1 , approving
the Conditional Use Permit for the following:
- 13 •35 square foot sign
- a 10 foot southerly side yard setback
- a 10 foot setback on the west
The following are suggested Findings of Fact and Conditions
should the Commission recommend approval:
1 . That the size of the sign is in proportion to the
size of the lot .
Conditions :
^ 1 . A 10 foot setback is required from Smetana Road .
