(1) All sign devices must have site plan and design approval by the zoning administrator or designee
prior to placement and adhere to the sign requirements as located within Tables 24-8-4 thru 24-9-3, as applicable.
(2) All signs applications must be submitted with sight plans, sign elevations, sign design drawings and any other drawings the zoning administrator or designee deems necessary to evaluate the sign for compliance with this code and any other applicable law or code as well as architectural compatibility, color, style, size, scale, proportion and balance, location, landscaping and any other factor deemed important by the reviewer.
(3) When new buildings or developments are presented for site plan review, signs proposed for the development shall be reviewed concurrently by staff. All planned centers and multi-tenant buildings must submit a sign theme for approval by the planning commission. The center must have an approved sign theme before any sign permits will be issued. If a plan for a sign package is not submitted at site plan review, the developer will be notified of sign ordinance standards and shall submit plans that adhere to the code.
(4) Applicants for sign permits shall give serious consideration to the following elements when submitting plans for signs:
(a) architectural compatibility; (b) color and style; (c) size, scale, proportion and balance; (d) location; and (e) landscaping. (5) The zoning administrator may refer an application for a sign permit to the planning commission if the zoning administrator feels adherence to the criteria of this section is not shown in submitted plans.
