CONSIDER CONDITIONAL SIGN PERMIT FOR
ST. PAUL'S LUTHERAN CHURCH AND SCHOOL
5634 LUTHER DRIVE
JENNI TOVAR

YES --X-NO-N/A
DECEMBER 9, 1996
AGENDA ITEM:
SUBJECT:
INTRODUCTION:
An application for a conditional sign permit, has been submitted for consideration by the
Planning Commission. The applicant, St. Paul's Lutheran Church and School, requests a
conditional sign permit in order to locate an illuminated sign within the R-l, Suburban
Residential Zoning District. The proposal is to construct a 12' x 8' monument sign
which has external lighting. The sign is to be located approximately 10 feet from the
property line along T.H. 13 and 44 feet from Luther Drive. The proposed sign consists of
brick and concrete block. See attached exhibits for drawings.
BACKGROUND:
As of the spring of 1996, St. Paul's Lutheran Church had an illuminated sign located on
the top of the hill facing T.H. 13. A storm destroyed that sign. The proposed sign is a
replacement sign located on the hill facing T.H. 13.
DISCUSSION:
Section 7.6 of the Zoning Ordinance states that illuminated signs in the A-I, C-l and
Residential Zoning Districts require a conditional sign permit. The ordinance reads:
(C) Illuminated Signs: Illuminated signs may be allowed in agricultural,
conservation and residential zoning districts. Such signs shall be illuminated only
by steady, stationary, shielded light sources directed solely at the sign, or internal
to it, without causing glare for motorists, pedestrians, or neighboring property.
The lighting will be stationary and steady and directed solely at the sign. The sign is one
sided with the hill located directly behind it. Any light shining on the sign will be

AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER
directed at the sign, with the hill behind it, so as not to shine, glare or illuminate a
residence, the right of way or even the church itself.
ALTERNATIVES
1. Approve the Conditional Sign Permit as requested by the applicant.
2. Table or continue discussion ofthe item for a specific purpose.
3. Deny the application because the Planning Commission finds that the applicant has
not met the conditions under the sign ordinance criteria.
RECOMMENDATION:
Alternative #1. The proposed sign meets the conditions of the Sign Code, and does not
have an adverse effect upon adjacent properties or traffic..
ACTION REQUIRED:
A motion to adopt Resolution 96-37PC approving the Conditional Sign Permit to allow
the construction of a 12' x 8' illuminated monument sign at 5634 Luther Road as
proposed.

Wuellner:
. Agreed with Stamson. At one point in time, by virtue of creative negotiation this was
considered to be an attached garage by someone's standards. There is a legal building
permit stating it is detached.
. Both parties admit there were mistakes.
. The mistake allowed Mr. Craig to enjoy a 1500 sq. foot garage for 11 years. Ifwe
allow this mistake to continue we are setting a precedent. A walkway is not an
attachment, nor does the City want it to be. It has to be inhabitable space. The
ordinance will have to be amended so this will not happen again.
. The Commission does not have to allow him to add on because someone made a
mistake 11 years ago.
Criego:
. Agrees with Wuellner and Stamson. The interpretation 11 years ago was not correct.
. Weare not asking applicant to remove the garage, just stating he cannot add to it.
. Agreed with staff.
. The City Attorney told staff they could force the applicant to take down the garage.
Kuykendall:
. Needs Building Code definition of "detached" and "attached".
MOTION BY STAMSON, SECOND BY WUELLNER, RECOMMEND TO CITY
COUNCIL TO UPHOLD THE RULING OF THE CITY ZONING OFFICER IN
REGARDS TO THE APPEAL OF JOHN CRAIG.
V ote taken signified Criego, Wuellner and Stamson, nays Kuykendall and V oOOof.
MOTION CARRIED.
This appeal Will go to City Council on January 6, 1997.

Lutheran Church and School, requesting a sign permit in order to locate an illuminated
sign within the R-l District. The proposal is to construct a 12' x 8' monument sign
which has external lighting. In the spring of 1996, a storm destroyed an illuminated sign
located on the top of the hill facing T .H. 13. The proposed sign is a replacement sign on
the hill facing T .H. 13.
Comments from the public:
Tom Trishe, 4950 Credit River Road, representing the Church, stated they wanted to
meet city code and propose to use the existing lights from the previous sign.

Comments from the Commissioners:
Criego:
. The hill above the sign goes up approximately 35 feet above the sign. The direction
of the light goes away from the neighboring home.
. Agreed but questioned the wattage of lights.
V onhof:
. Only concern is for any negative impact on Highway 13, reflection or distraction
beyond what exists now.
. Trishe explained the sign is brick and wood which will not reflect glare.
Kuykendall:
. Same lights are being used.
. No reflective problems.
Stamson:
. Tovar said the city does not have any inspection and lighting standards.
. It is an attractive sign.
Wuellner:
. Agrees - well placed.
