<br />~ariance Nos. 2004-08 and 2004-10 <br />~ptember 27, 2004 <br />Page 7 <br /> <br />In summary, staff is supportive of signage on the building as discussed. <br />However, staff is not supportive of the requested variances from the <br />Sign Code since the Code provides ample opportunity for business <br />identification. Additional signage, installation of cabinet signs and <br />increased sign sizes can result in visual clutter for Main Street and <br />the Midtown area. <br /> <br />Based upon the analysis of the project and the project's compatibility <br />with the City's General Plan and the standards adopted by the Midtown <br />Specific Plan, staff recommends approval of Variance No. 2004-08 as <br />conditioned (Exhibits 15 and 16). Additionally, staff recommends that the <br />Planning Commission support the recommended actions for Variance No. 2004- <br />10 (Exhibit 17). <br /> <br />CEQA Compliance <br /> <br />In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the <br />recommended action is exempt from further review. Categorical Exemption <br />411rvironmental Review No. 2004-184 will be filed for this project. <br /> <br /> <br />nnaus <br />ant Planner II <br /> <br /> <br />,/ c <br />V---u <br /> <br />P <br /> <br />LL:JM <br />11\reports\PC&ZA\va04-08 and va04-10.pc <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />318-26 <br />
