Review and Recommendation |
The request is to amend the Planned Area Development (PAD) zoning, more specifically stipulation number 10 in Ordinance No. 3420 by removing a limitation on sign colors that only permits blue or red. The applicant is requesting to remove this section of the stipulation in order to allow current and potential tenants to have a wide range of color options for signage. Doing so would allow the same flexibility with sign colors as most other commercial and industrial zoned properties in Chandler. The site currently contains five single-story buildings that front along Arizona Avenue, Chilton Drive, and Washington Street. Staff finds the proposal to be consistent with the goals of the Zoning Code and General Plan, thus recommending Planning and Zoning Commission recommend approval. |
