Report No: PD-158-82 . . .12
BACKGROUND:
A request has been received for an exemption from the provisions
of the Sign By-law to permit the erection of a ground sign in
front of Grants Auto Service at the intersection of Liberty Street
South, Ontario Street and Park Street in Bowmanville.
The proposed ground sign as requested by Mr. Jas. B. Lowrey
of Pioneer Petroleums (Central ) Ltd. would have an area of 3.3
sq. metres (36 sq.ft. ) . The Sign By-law would permit a ground
sign of 2.8 sq.metres (30 sq.ft. ) or 0. 1% of the lot area, which-
ever is greater and provided that in no case shall any sign exceed
100 sq.ft. in area.
The colours used in the proposed sign will be red, white and blue
and the Sign By-law prohibits illuminated signs using the colours
red, green or amber within 150 feet of an intersection except
by Special Resolution of Council .
COMMENTS:
In the past, exemptions have been granted for a maximum size of 40.0
sq.ft. this exemption would be in keeping with those granted to
Pronto, King Street,East, Bowmanville and Petro Canada on Liberty
Street, South, Bowmanville.
So as to treat each request in a fair and consistent manner it would
seem appropriate to approve the amendment up to a maximum fo 40 sq.ft.
The use of the colour red is unlikely to create any confusion with
the red of any traffic lights that maybe erected in the future. There-
fore a resolution as requested would be in order in this particular
instance.
Report No: PD-158-82 . . ./3
