The proposed revised Master Sign Program/Site Development Review permitting the
construction of a 75 foot tall freestanding sign approximately 57 feet from the CALTRANS

of Section 8.84.120, Freestanding Sign General Regulations because:
The signage should not be established until the remaining auto dealership(s) develop on
the site, the design of the dealership is known and the desires of the owner of the new
dealership with regard to signage design and location are known.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT THE Planning Commission does hereby deny the
requested Revised Master Sign Program/Site Development Review for Th-Valley
Buick/Pontiac/GMC.
