     RESOLUTION APPROVING COMPREHENSIVE SIGNAGE PLAN FOR 701 East High Street


         WHEREAS, the City staff reviewed the Comprehensive Signage Plan proposed for 701 East High
Street, and recommended approval of the plan if certain modifications were to be made such that only
one (1) directory sign shall be permitted for each entrance/exit into the parking garage and will be
installed perpendicular to the street at that location; and

      WHEREAS, when approved those modifications shall be incorporated into a revised
Comprehensive Signage Plan on 701 East High Street for review and approval; and

        WHEREAS, in accordance with City Code Sec. 34-1045(c), City Council has determined that:

                (1) There is good cause for deviating from a strict application of the requirements of
                Section 34-1020, et seq. (City Code Chapter 34, Article IX, Division 4 – Signs), and

                (2) The comprehensive signage plan, as proposed, with the modifications provided by
                staff, will serve the public purposes and objectives set forth within City Code Section 34-
                1021 at least as well, or better, than the signage that would otherwise be permitted for
                the subject development; now, therefore;

        BE IT RESOLVED by the Council for the City of Charlottesville, Virginia, that this Council hereby
approves the Comprehensive Signage Plan for 701 East High Street subject to the modifications
referenced herein as to the number of directory signs (one per entrance/exit) and the placement of such
signs perpendicular to the street.
