PERMIT REQUEST SR 2001-12 TO ESTABLISH A MASTER SIGN PROGRAM
FOR THE COMMERCIAL BUILDING
(APN: 208-025-018)
WHEREAS, Craig and Grant Architects, representing the Roen Family Partnership, has
requested approval of Development Plan request DP 2000-24 to allow the construction of a
9,408 +/- square foot retail/office building on a 0.32 +/- acre site; and
WHEREAS, Variance request VAR 2000-28 has been concurrently submitted seeking approval
to allow a portion of the second floor of the proposed commercial building to extend up to a
maximum of four feet into the required minimum 10-foot front and secondary front yard
setbacks along Railroad Avenue and School Streets; and
WHEREAS, Variance request VAR 2000-28 also included approval to allow a 4.72 on-site
parking space reduction in the amount of required amount of on-site parking spaces; and
WHEREAS, a Sign Permit request SR 2001-12 has been submitted to establish a Master Sign
Program for the commercial building for all tenants of the building; and
WHEREAS, the subject site is located on the southeast comer of School Street and Railroad
Avenue and is further identified as Assessor's Parcel Number 208-025-018; and
WHEREAS, the Town of Danville Downtown Business District regulations require approval of
a Development Plan application prior to construction of a new retail/office building; and
WHEREAS, the project site will include seventeen on-site parking spaces; and
WHEREAS, frontage improvements will be installed along Railroad Avenue and School Street
which will result in eight additional public parking spaces along School Street and two public
parking spaces along Railroad Avenue; and
WHEREAS, the associated parking in-lieu fees associated with the project have been
preliminary calculated at $105,000, covering the cost for eight off-site parking spaces for retail
uses and 11 off-site parking spaces for office uses; and
WHEREAS, the associated Commercial Transportation Improvement Program (CTIP) fees
associated with the project have been preliminary calculated at $42,336; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did review the project at a noticed public hearing on
May 8, 2001; and
WHEREAS, the public notice of this action was given in all respects as required by law; and
WHEREAS, a staff report was submitted recommending that the Planning Commission approve
the request; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hear and consider all reports, recommendations, and
testimony submitted in writing and presented at the hearing; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED that the Planning Commission recommend the Town Council reduce or waive the
project's CTIP fees, up to a maximum of $42,336 in recognition that the project will incur
extraordinary costs associated with the installation of frontage improvements along School Street
to incorporate a perpendicular parking design, with the CTIP fee waiver or reduction to be up to,
but not beyond, the incremental difference between the cost to install standard frontage
improvements and the proposed frontage improvements; and therefore be it further
RESOLVED that the Planning Commission of the Town of Danville approves the Development
Plan request DP 2000-24, Variance request VAR 2000-28 and Sign Review request SR 2001 - 12
per the conditions contained herein, and makes the following findings in support of this action:
Development Plan:
1. The proposed project is consistent with the Danville 2010 General Plan.
The proposed development will constitute a commercial structure of sustained
desirability and stability, and will be in harmony with the character of the existing
development in the area, the surrounding neighborhood and the community.
The applicant intends to obtain permits for construction within 18 months from the
effective date of the Development Plan approval.
4. The proposed development is needed at the proposed location to provide adequate
PAGE 2 OF RESOLUTION NO. 2001-17
facilities of the type proposed.
The proposed development wilt be an attractive and efficient development, which will fit
harmoniously into, and will have no adverse effects upon, the adjacent or surrounding
development.
Setback Variance:
This Variance does not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with the
limitations on other properties in the area or Downto~vn Business District 1 & 2; Old
Town Retail and Old Town Retail Transition, in which the subject property is located.
Because of the following special circumstances applicable to this specific property, strict
application of the applicable zoning regulations would deprive the subject property of
rights enjoyed by others in the general vicinity and/or located in the same zoning district:
In order to provide a logical circulation pattern on the project site, which combines
the circulation pattern with the adjacent to the north, the ability to create articulation
and massing was limited on the ground floor. The architectural projections on the
second floor provide desirable and appropriate architecture articulation.
This variance is in substantial conformance with the intent and purpose of the Downtown
Business District 1 & 2, Old Town Retail and Old Town Retail Transition, in which the
subject property is located since the variance allows for reasonable development of a
commercial building in Downtown.
Parking Variance:
This Variance does not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with the
limitations on other properties in the area or Downtown Business District 1 & 2; Old
Town Retail and Old Town Retail Transition, in which the subject property is located.
Because of the following special circumstances applicable to this specific property, strict
application of the applicable zoning regulations would deprive the subject property of
rights enjoyed by others in the general vicinity and/or located in the same zoning district:
Due to the Town's desire to locate the structure towards the comer, the amount of
area necessary to allow for the required number of parking spaces and corresponding
back-om area is limited. Further, the shared parking concept for this property dictates
the location of the driveway aisle and the placement of the parking spaces, which
PAGE 3 OF RESOLUTION NO. 2001-17
limits the buildable area on the project site.
This variance is in substantial conformance with the intent and purpose of the Downtown
Business District 1 & 2, Old Town Retail and Old Town Retail Transition, in which the
subject property is located since the variance allows for reasonable development of a
commercial building in Downtown.
Sign Review Findings:
The Master Sign Program established for this development is consistent in character with
the Town's commercial design guidelines is compatible with project architecture, and
signs are no larger than necessary for adequate identification.
The signage will serve primarily to identify the business, or offered for sale, rent or lease
on the premises.
3. The signage will not excessively compete for the public's attention.
The signage will be harmonious with the materials, color, texture, size, shape, height,
location, design and in proportion with the architectural style of the building, property or
environment of which they are a part.
The design of the signage will be consistent with professional graphic and structural
standards.
Signage illumination will be at the lowest level consistent with adequate identification
and readability because no internal illumination is proposed.
