The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, <br />determines and declares as follows: <br />A. Kellee Preston, representing the Discovery Science Center, dba Discovery <br />Cube of Orange County ("Applicant') is requesting approval of Regional <br />Planned Sign Program No. 2018-01 as conditioned to allow the <br />construction of a variety of temporary and permanent wall and digital signs <br />at the existing Discovery Cube of Orange County ("Cube") development <br />located at 2500 South Main Street, which is a 'regional attraction" per <br />Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 41-885 (a)(3). The proposed regional <br />planned sign program will contain a variety of signage types that will be <br />installed throughout the site and on the buildings. <br />B. Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 41-885 requires a regional planned <br />sign program to be approved by the Planning Commission. <br />C. The Discovery Cube of Orange County is eligible for a regional planned <br />sign program as it is a regional attraction that does not abut property <br />zoned or used for residential uses. <br />D.

The Planning Commission determines that the following findings, which <br />must be established in order to grant this Regional Planned Sign Program <br />pursuant to Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 41-885, have been <br />established for Regional Planned Sign Program No. 2018-01 to allow for <br />the variety of temporary and permanent wall and digital sign at the existing <br />regional science center: <br />1. The scale and intensity of the proposed signage is consistent and <br />harmonious with surrounding land uses and does not create <br />conditions that could contribute to visual or physical blight intrusion <br />or similar incompatibilities. <br />
