provisions of the Renton Municipal Code (RMC) regulating electronic message boards in order to install a new
electronic price sign at a Shell gas station. The subject property is located at 401 Park Ave N (APN 7224000695). The

message board pole sign with a new electronic price message board monument sign. The proposed electronic price
message board sign will have a maximum height of five (5) feet, a maximum face size of 33.96 square feet, and will be
double sided. Per RMC 4-4-100C.3.a., animated (message board) signs are prohibited within seventy five (75) feet of
the public right-of-way (ROW). The code further states in RMC 4-4-100G.5.c. that illuminated cabinet signs are
prohibited in the Urban Design District D. The applicant is requesting a variance to allow the proposed sign to be
animated (message board). The new sign will remain in the same location as the existing sign, which is located
approximately 7.5 feet away from the Park Ave N public ROW and approximately 6.83 feet from the N 4th Street public
ROW. The new sign will be located within a new twelve (12) foot long by eight (8) foot wide landscaped planter. No
trees are proposed to be removed.
