PURPOSE: The purpose of this agenda item is to approve the proposed third development agreement modification to allow 2 building mounted multi-tenant identification signs at the Villagio shopping center (a.k.a. S.R. 434 Retail). APPLICABLE REGULATIONS Chapter 166, Florida Statutes Development Agreement (DA) & Modifications Chapter 20, Section 20-470 (3) (c) CONSIDERATIONS: Villagio (a.k.a. SR 434 Retail) was approved as a shopping center with an Italian village theme within the C-l zoning district and the SR 434 New Development Overlay Zoning District. It is comprised of one primary 2- story building and 2 much smaller detached single-story outbuildings on the same site. The first floor of the primary building is retail with 6,000 SF restaurant area at the northwest comer. A sign permit application for the proposed Yen Yen Chinese Restaurant depicted 2 building- mounted multi-tenant identification sign for the north (SR 434 side) and east sides of the restaurant (located at the west end of the large building) and was denied by staff, because both are proposed at 21' 4", which is higher than the prescribed maximum 14' above the adjacent sidewalk grade (Subsection 20-470 (3) (c) in the SR 434 New Development Overlay Zoning District). Staff agrees with the owner and the restaurateur that, given the height of the building fayade and the archway on the side of the building, the sign is proposed at the most aesthetic September 25,2006 Regular Agenda Item 304 Page 2 of 2 location for a building-mounted identification sign. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the City Commission approve the proposed third modification to the existing Villagio development agreement to allow proper placement of the proposed building-mounted multi-tenant identification signs.
