(PDAMD-06-021) Purpose: To conduct a public hearing relative to a request to amend the signage requirements for tract 4B of The Village at Trophy Club, more specifically designated as 99 Trophy Club Drive, the Executive Suites. Existing Condition of the Property: The property is currently zoned PD-13. The uses designated for this site are Office/Commercial. The site consists of approximately 1.8 acres, and contains a 19,000 square foot office building built in 1996. History: Planned Development No. 13, The Village at Trophy Club, was approved for zoning in November of 1995. At that time, interior illuminated signage was not approved for the retail buildings along State Highway 114, the bank use fronting Trophy Club Drive, or the office building which is the subject of this amendment request. Since the adoption of PD-13, illuminated signage has been approved for the retail uses along State Highway 114, as well as the bank use. Staff Findings: The location of the proposed directory board sign will remain in the current location, as designated on the approved site plan for the property. Additional height will be added to the column pillars and the face of the sign will be replaced with a steel frame and aluminum skin. The majority of the tenants will have an individual, removable panel listing their business. The lettering will be vinyl. The request for signage amendment is consistent with the signage on the surrounding properties. Staff recommends approval of the request for signage amendment.
