PLANNING PACT SHEET
APPLICANT City of Miami Departtriehts of Iluilding and Planning, 1/20/77
RgatIEST
XPLANAT/ON
4, Consideration of amending the Comprehensive
Zoning Ordinance 6871 by deleting the term "C,1A it
district from the title of Section 4. Al XXIV,
Signs, and adding a new Section 4.1 to A1.t. xxtv,
MONS, to provide appropriate sign regulations for
C -IA Planned Shopping Center Districts tt terms
number, location, kind and site of sighs allowed.
The 13uilding Department requested consideration of
the subject amendment pursuant to their efforts to
eliminate and bring into compliance sighs in certain
shopping centers, As signs permitted in the C -1A
Planned Shopping Center District are the same as
permitted in the C. C-2, C-3, W-rt and W 1 districts,
the existing regulations do not take into account that
planned shopping centers have different sign needs
than ordinary commercial establishments. They do
t utilize projecting signs. Only one detached (pole)
sign is utilized to identify the center; not one for
each business in the center. These centers could
accommodate signs of a large size without utilizing
the total amount of sign area permitted when com-
puted on an individual business basis. The proposed
legislation therefore:
1. Establishes planne4 shopping center sign regulations
in a separate section of the sign ordinance.
2. Limits flat signs to two in number, where three are
presently permitted.
3. Permits detached signs for center identification,
one sign not exceeding 300 square feet on the major
street frontage and one sign not exceeding 100 square
feet on each minor street frontage.
4. Provides for pedestrian directional signs and sign
Kiosks within the center.
5. Increases the number of identification signs attached
to the bottom of a marquee or walkway roof.
6. Eliminates projecting and individual business detached
signs.
