Project Description / Background: The applicant, Edie Cox, Seattle Commercial Sign, is requesting approval of administrative variances from the required City Center Sign Regulations (RMC 4-4-100H) in the Center Downtown (CD) zoning designation. The subject site is located at 201 Wells Avenue South between Wells Avenue South and Williams Avenue South on South 2"d Street. The proposed wall signs would be mounted on the business fagades with which they would be associated. First Savings Bank Northwest has changed its corporate logo designation and, therefore, desires to change its signs accordingly. The applicant is proposing two wall signs which would replace existing wall signs. One of these signs is the primary wall sign which would be located on the east fagade of the building above the entrance; the other sign is a secondary wall sign which would be located on the northwest fagade of the building above the entrance. The primary wall sign, which would be located on the east fagade of the building and would replace the existing sign at that location (Exhibits 4 and 5), and is proposed to be mounted at a height of 31-feet, 8,5-inches. This sign would be 74.75 square feet in area and internally illuminated. RMC 4-4-1 DOH outright permits primary wall signs at a height not to exceed 25 feet above grade, up to 100 square feet in area with internal illumination. RMC 4-4-1001-19 allows modification up to 25% of the maximum height for a height of 31-feet, 3-inches. Therefore, the applicant is requesting a variance for a height of 31-feet, 8.5-inches for this primary wail sign. The secondary wall sign, which would be located at the northwest corner of the building and would replace the existing sign at that location (Exhibits 4 and 5), is proposed to be mounted at 30-feet, 10-inches above grade. This sign would be 42.56 square feet in area and would be internally illuminated. RMC 4-4-100H outright permits secondary wall signs at a height not to exceed 25 feet above grade, 25 square feet in area with no internal illumination. RMC ADM VAR09-031, City of Renton Department of Community & Economic Development Administrative Variance Staff Report FIRST SAVINGS BANK SIGN VARIANCES LUA09-031, V-A, V-A PFPORT AND DECISION OF March 16, 2009 Page 3 of 10 4-4-100H9 allows modifications of height and area up to 25% of the maximum allowed height for a height of 31-feet, 3-inches and up to 25% of the maximum area for area up to 31.25 square feet. RMC 4-4-100H9 also allows a modification for internal illumination. Therefore, the applicant is requesting a variance for 42.56 square feet for this secondary wall sign. The applicant is also requesting modifications for height and internal illumination. D. Findings The subject site is located at 201 Wells Avenue South, within the Center Downtown (CD) zoning designation. 2. The sign regulations for the proposed site are covered under the City Center Sign Regulations (RMC 4-4-100H5c, 4-4-100H5g, and 4-4-1001-19). 3. The analysis of the proposal according to variance criteria and criteria for modifications of City Center Sign Regulations is found in the body of the Staff Report. 4. Request for Variances: The applicant has requested approval for administrative variances from the required height of the primary wall sign (RMC 4-4-100H5.c) and from the required area of the secondary wall sign (RMC 4-4-100H5.g) for the property located at 201 Wells Avenue South. These wall signs are similar in height and area to the existing signs which they would replace. 5. Request for Modifications: The applicant has requested modifications for the area and illumination of the secondary wall sign (RMC 4-4-1009). This wall sign is similar in area to the sign it would replace. 6. Administrative Variance: The applicant's administrative variance submittal materials comply with the requirements necessary to process a variance. The applicant's site plan and other project drawings are provided as Exhibits 2 through 6. 7. Existing Land Use: North: Bank; CD zone South: Eating & drinking establishment and offices; CD zone East: Commercial retail and offices; CD zone West: Eating & drinking establishment and offices; CD zone 8. Zoning: The site is located in the Center Downtown (CD) zone. The site is also subject to RMC 4-4-100H, Signs Within the City Center — Special Regulations. 9. Topography: The site is flat.

City of Renton Department of Community & Economic Development Administrative Variance Staff Report FIRST SAVINGS BANK SIGN VARIANCES LUA09-031, V-A, V-A REPORT AND DECISION OF March 16, 2009 Page 4 of PO E. Consistency with Variance Criteria The applicant is requesting two variances. One is a variance for the height of the primary wall sign; and, the other is for the area of the secondary wall sign. RMC 4-9-25OB5a lists four criteria that the Reviewing Official is asked to consider, along with all other relevant information, in making a decision on an Administrative Variance application. a. That the applicant suffers undue hardship and the variance is necessary because of special circumstances applicable to subject property, including size, shape, topography, location or surroundings of the subject property, and the strict application of the Zoning Code is found to deprive subject property owner of rights and privileges enjoyed by other property owners in the vicinity and under identical zone classification: The applicant contends that special circumstances apply to the subject site, which imposes undue limitations on the property. The applicant has stated First Savings Bank Northwest has changed its corporate logo to more effectively reflect its Pacific Northwest roots. The applicant further states that this logo has been incorporated into signs at other First Savings Bank Northwest branches. Sign Height Variance Because the primary wall sign (on the east elevation of the building) faces a pedestrian plaza and parking lot, the applicant contends that it must exceed the maximum allowable height in order to be seen and read from across the parking lot and adjoining properties. The proposed sign would be located at a height similar to the existing sign it would replace (Exhibits 4 and 5). Staff believes that the shape and orientation of the bank building on its site necessitates the height of the proposed primary wall sign. The proposed height is necessary to aid in the identification of this Renton -based business. Sian Area Variance The secondary wall sign (on the northwest elevation of the building) also reflects the change in the corporate logo of First Savings Bank Northwest. The applicant contends and staff agrees that the area of this sign is similar to that of the existing sign it would replace and that the requested sign area is necessary for visibility and legibility from the surrounding downtown area (Exhibits 4 and 5). The applicant contends and staff agrees that the shape and orientation of the bank building on its site necessitate that the area of the proposed secondary wall sign is necessary to aid in the identification of this banking institution which was established in Renton and has operated as a Renton -based establishment since 1923 and at this location since 1967.

That the granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity and zone in which subject property is situated: First Savings Bank Northwest has been a downtown Renton fixture at its current location since 1967. Sign Height Variance The applicant contends that the proposed sign is warranted to maintain the identity of the bank with its new corporate logo. Staff believes that the height of the proposed sign would not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity and zone. The requested variance is to exceed the allowable height of the primary wall sign_ While this sign exceeds the maximum requirement permitted, it is very similar to the height of the existing sign it would replace; the proposed sign is in proportion to the building facade on which it would be placed. The ability to clearly see the sign may, in fact, enhance the public welfare by maintaining the ability to easily locate this Renton landmark business. Sian Area Variance The applicant contends that the proposed sign is necessary to maintain the identity of the bank with its new corporate logo. Staff believes that the area of the sign would not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity and zone. The requested variance is to exceed the area of the secondary wall sign. While the sign exceeds the maximum requirement permitted, it is very similar to the area of the existing sign it would replace; the proposed sign is in proportion to the building fagade on which it would be placed. The ability to clearly see the sign may, in fact, enhance the public welfare by maintaining the ability to easily locate this Renton landmark business. C. That approval shall not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with the limitation upon uses of other properties in the vicinity and zone in which the subject property is situated: Sign Height Variance Staff believes that approval of the variance request to exceed the allowable height of the primary wall sign would not provide the applicant with greater benefit or privileges than have been previously extended in similar cases. The current City Center Sign Regulations can be cumbersome to apply to businesses requesting new or replacement signs. Signage in business districts is a vital marketing tool as well as traditionally adding identity and a layer of character to an area. This sign is similar to the sign it would replace. Other signs under similar circumstances would likely be granted a variance.

Other signs under similar circumstances would likely be granted a variance. d. That the approval as determined by the Reviewing Official is a minimum variance that will accomplish the desired purpose: Sign Height Variance The applicant contends that the request to exceed the allowable height of the primary wall sign is the minimum variance needed in order to maintain high visibility of the business on this site. The proposed sign is consistent with the current character and layout of the downtown commercial neighborhood. Staff supports the request as the minimum variance, as the requested additional height for the primary wall sign creates a reasonable sign to complement and enhance the existing bank building_ This variance allows the applicant to maximize visibility of the bank along Wells Avenue South, Williams Avenue South and South 2"1 Street_ Sian Area Variance The applicant contends that the request to exceed the allowable area of the secondary wall sign is the minimum variance needed in order to maintain high visibility of the business on this site. The proposed sign is consistent with the current character and layout of the downtown commercial neighborhood_ Staff supports the request as the minimum variance, as the requested additional area for the secondary wall sign creates a reasonable sign to complement and enhance the existing bank building. This variance allows the applicant to maximize visibility of the bank along Wells Avenue South, Williams Avenue South and South 2r"¢ Street. F. Consistency with Modifications of City Center Sign Re_gulations Two modifications are requested for the secondary wall sign. These include: • A modification to exceed the allowable height; and • A modification to allow internal illumination. RMC 4-4-100H9.a authorizes the Director to grant a modification from the sign standards for signs which do not meet the specific provisions of the City Center sign standards when the proposed sign is intended to accomplish one of the following six purposes: 1) Respond to the needs of the public in locating a business establishment; or 2) Assist businesses in contributing to the economic well-being of the community; or 3) Install a sign that is considered to be historic or of historic value by the advertising industry or a recognized historic preservation organization, provided that such entity was not involved in the use, design, or production of the proposed sign; or 4) Result in a reduction of signs on a site; or ADMVAR09-031'', City of Renton Department of Community & Economic Development administrative Variance Staff Report FIRST SAVINGS BANK SIGN VARIANCES LUA09-031, V-A, V-A REPORT AND DECISION OF March 16, 2009 Page 7 of 10 5) Result in a reduction in the number of freestanding or ground signs otherwise allowed; or 6) Result in a coordinated sign plan for a multi -tenant building or a multiple building complex. The modifications requested for the secondary wall sign are consistent with purpose 1), above, in that the proposed increased height and internal illumination would increase the visibility and legibility in locating First Savings Bank Northwest on this site. In addition, the requested modifications are also consistent with purpose 2) and 6) in that the increased visibility of the sign may aid in attracting customers which may assist the business in contributing to the economic well-being of the community. Furthermore, First Savings Bank Northwest at this location is a multi -building complex and the requested modifications contribute to a coordinated sign plan. RMC 4-4-100H9.b specifies that the Director may grant a modification request provided the proposed sign meets all of the following five criteria. a) The modification will not create a significant adverse impact to other property or improvements in the immediate vicinity of the subject property: The proposed secondary wall sign would replace an existing similar sign on the northwest fagade of the First Savings Bank Northwest building. The corporate logo of the establishment has changed and more effectively reflects its Pacific Northwest character. The height of the sign over that which is permitted outright as well as internal illumination would not adversely impact other property or improvements in the immediate vicinity. Illumination would allow the sign to be seen from a distance and in low light conditions. b) The modification will not increase the number of signs allowed: The proposed modifications would not increase the number of signs permitted. The requested signs would replace existing signs in similar locations. The requested modifications would increase height and allow internal illumination of the proposed secondary sign. c) The modification will not increase the allowed height or area of any wall, projecting, awning/canopy/marqueeltraditional marquee, or secondary sign by more than 25%: Outright permitted standards for secondary wall signs in the City Center are a maximum of 25 square feet in area and 25 feet in height. The proposed secondary wall sign would be 42.56 square feet in area and would require a variance as described elsewhere in this report. Up to 31.25 feet in height could be allowed with an approved modification. The proposed height of the secondary wall sign would be 30-feet, 10-inches and falls within the 25% increase allowable with a modification. The height of this sign is similar to that of the existing sign it would replace_ Staff supports its installation at the requested height. ADM VAR09-031 % City of Renton Department of Community & Economic Development Administrative Variance Staff Report FIRST SAVINGS BANK SIGN VARIANCES LUA09-031, V-A, V-A REPORT AND DECISION OF March 16, 2009 Page 8 of 10 dj The modification will not increase the allowed height or area of any freestanding or ground sign: Not applicable. The requested modifications are for a secondary wall sign. No freestanding signs are part of this request. e) The modification does not create a public safety hazard: The requested modifications would locate the proposed sign at a height similar to that of the existing sign it would replace. Internal illumination would aid in the visibility of the business it represents. The sign does not encroach into the public right-of-way nor would it be blinking or flashing. Therefore, the creation of a public safety hazard is not anticipated. G. Conclusions The proposed Sign Height Variance for the primary wall sign meets the four criteria to be considered in making a decision on a variance request as specified in RMC 4-9- 250I35a. Special circumstances apply to the subject site which imposes undue limitations on the property; the granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vanity and zone in which the subject property is situated; the granting of the variance does not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with the limitation upon use of other properties in the vicinity and zone in which the subject property is situated; and, the approval would be the minimum variance necessary to accomplish the desired purpose. 2_ The proposed Sign Area Variance for the secondary wall sign meets the four criteria to be considered in making a decision on a variance request as specified in RMC 4- 9-250135a. Special circumstances apply to the subject site which imposes undue limitations on the property; the granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vanity and zone in which the subject property is situated; the granting of the variance does not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with the limitation upon use of other properties in the vicinity and zone in which the subject property is situated; and, the approval would be the minimum variance necessary to accomplish the desired purpose. 3. The proposed sign modifications for the secondary wall sign are consistent with the purpose of the sign as specified in RMC 4-4-100H9.b. Six purposes are specified and this sign accomplishes three of those purposes in that it: responds to the needs of the public in locating a business establishment; assists businesses in contributing to the economic well-being of the community, and, results in a coordinated sign plan for a multi -tenant building or multiple building complex. 4. The proposed sign modifications meet the five criteria necessary for approval: the modification will not create a significant adverse impact to other property or improvements in the immediate vicinity of the subject property; the modification will not increase the number of signs allowed; the modification will not increase the allowed height or area of any wall, projecting, awning/canopy/marquee/traditional ADM VAA09-0311 City of Renton Department of Community & Economic Development Administrative Variance Staff Report FIRST SAVINGS BANK SIGN VARIANCES LUA09-031, V-A, V-A REPORT AND DECISION OF March 15, 2009 Page 9 of 10 marquee, or secondary sign by more than 25%; the modification will not increase the height or area of any freestanding or ground sign; and, the modification will not create a public safety hazard. 5.

The bank has changed their corporate logo — hence the change in their signage. The existing signs will be removed & replaced with (2) NEW sets of channel letters & logos on an exposed raceways. The zoning & sign regulations for this site in question do not allow the signs to be placed at this height on the building. The existing signs are installed above the height that is allowed at this site. We will remove the existing signs & install the NEW signs in the same place on the building. The buildings architecture dictates the height & area where the signs are to be installed. There is a large area of glass above the entrance doors. We will be installing the signs above the glass area. The NEW corporate logo has a large logo. The size of the letters is dictated by their corporate standards & the letters are considerably smaller than the logo. The sign needs to be larger than what the city's regulations allow in order to be visible. The signs are to be internally illuminated with neon. This gives our client the best visibility during our grey days & at night. It also allows our clients location to be seen from a distance. # 5 Project Narrative Project name: 1" Savings Bank -- 201 Wells Ave South, Renton WA 98053 East elevation: 4ft 8 in tall by 1 Gft 4in wide = 74.75 sq ft Northwest elevation: 3ft Gin tall by 12ft 4in wide = 42.56 sq ft No land use permits required Business district - Commercial zoning Building is occupied by a banking facility — new signs No special features to be disturbed by the new signs No soil or drainage conditions to be disturbed Proposed use of property has already been determined — New development consists of (2) new signs No new lots are proposed for this project Access to new signs from parking area surrounding building No off -site improvements proposed Estimate of manufacturing of new signs = $3,500.00 Estimate of survey, permitting & installation of signs = $7,800.00 No excavating needed for this project No trees to be removed No land to be dedicated to City No job shacks needed — boom truck on site at time of install Proposed modifications for the East Elevation sign.

Proposed sign area is above existing windows on building. The sign area exceeds the allowed height in order for the installation of the sign to be above the existing windows. The sign is to be internally illuminated to be seen from a distance & to be seen at dusk or at night.

The corporate logo of the bank has been changed. They are proposing to change this locations signage to reflect the NEW logo & to match the other branches in the area. Not allowing the sign to be installed above the existing windows would place hardship on the client. The sign needs to be installed above the maximum height allowed in order to be seen. The sign needs to be installed in the middle of the available facade above the existing windows to be seen from across the parking lot & the adjoining properties. The existing sign is installed in this area at this time Proposed modifications for the Northwest Elevation sign. The corporate logo of the bank has been changed. They are proposing to change this locations signage to reflect the NEW logo & to match the other branches in the area. The secondary sign needs to be placed above the windows on the available space of the fagade. It is also above the maximum height allowed — the existing sign is installed in this area at this time. The sign needs to be internally illuminated in order to obtain the maximum visibility for our client. Illuminated signs can be seen in in the fog & the misty days of our region. The sign needs to be kept at the size proposed to increase the visibility for our client. The design of the NEW corporate logo dictates the size of the letters. To decrease the overall size would minimize the size of the letters & make them unreadable from a distance. o��NG 1OP", 0r ti� 100°� Fe �4�� S�� V Printed: 02-20-2009 �ITY OF RENTON 1 055 S.
