Submitted By Revie d By Economic Development Director Assistant City ager Page 1 of 2 ITEM NO. ~'~ DESCRIPTION: On November 3, 2009, the City Council adopted Resolution 161-09 amending the City's Streetscape Master Plan Policies to allow for City directional signage for places, building or locations of regional or historical significance. At this meeting, the City Council also ~approved City directional signs for the automotive dealers on Scarlett Drive and Scarlett Court, as a way to achieve a 2009-2010 City Council High Priority Goal and Objective to "assist the automobile dealers on Scarlett Court by enhancing their presence." Three signs were installed to direct visitors to the Scarlett Court auto dealers. On April 6, 2010, the City Council approved five locations for City directional signs in east Dublin to support auto dealers. The locations include Hacienda Drive at Dublin Blvd., Tassajara Road at Dublin Blvd., and three locations on Dublin Boulevard befinreen Hacienda Drive and Tassajara Road. On July 20, 2010, the City Council approved the sixth location on John Monego Court just south of Dublin Boulevard. The applicant (Hamcor, LLC, the parent company of Dublin Toyota) has made a request to replace the existing sign at the terminus of Scarlett Drive ~ with a larger sign. The applicant believes that the existing sign, which is placed adjacent to the CALTRANS fence, is too small and not easily readable (Attachment 1). The applicant has requested that the City Council consider replacing that sign with a new, larger sign that will be able to be seen more easily as well as accommodate all of the car dealerships in the area (Attachment 2). The existing sign is 12 square feet (3 feet wide by 4 feet high), and the proposed sign is 32 square feet (8 feet wide by 4 feet high). Staff is supportive of the new sign at the terminus of Scarlett Drive. This request does not affect any of the other existing directional signs.
