Lighted signs shall not be of flashing or animated character. <br />No specific limitatlon on the placement or tyPe of advertieing sign appears, <br />except that sign muet be "placed on the property". Size ie limited per the <br />Code to 30 aquare feet per face. <br />Flecement or type of advertieing sign do not appear in the SEPA �82-60 ae <br />prepared by the City Planning Director becauee no such limited appeared in <br />the Zoning Code. <br />�ometimes after the SEPA Document wae prepared, without any advace notice +o <br />the reotaurant developer, an9 having a copy of SEFA �82-60 on file rie <br />p-epered by the Planning Director, for thie oubject property, the Plenning <br />Co�miesion unelaterally approved a change in Section 19.24.0?_0(F). <br />The Zoning Code ae ammended limited the type o£ eipne to wall or projecting <br />and pole eigne to buildinge with multi-tenant occupanciee. <br />2.

Denial of thie variance will create an unneceeeary, continuing economic <br />liardehip for the ownere oY thie property nnd busine�s.
