DEPARTMENT REPORT
August 3, 2004
10. Docket No. 04070012 ADLS Amend: Kroger @ Range Line - Drive Thru Pharmacy
The applicant seeks approval for drive thru canopy & signage.
The site is located at 1217 S Range line. The site is zoned B-8/Business.
Filed by Victor Berlage for the Kroger Company.
The applicant is requesting ADLS Amendment approval to pennit the addition of a drive thru
facility and additional signage. Please see informational packet distributed with this report.
The Department has the following comments/concerns:
1. The Department request modification of the new wall sign to maintain the color of the
existing wall signs on the building. All existing wall sings have white faces, white trim
caps and white returns.
2. The department is not in favor of a red neon illuminated "OPEN" sign as proposed under
tab 9 of the booklet. We would prefer a sign similar to the other two on that page to
maintain some consistency of design. That sign as proposed also does not need to project
from the building 8.75". The transfonner can be concealed inside the building as the
individual letters of the other signs. A white cabinet with white face and red letters
would provide a contrast to the two other non-illuminated signs.
The Department recommends that the Special Studies Committee approve th~ request after
all comments and concerns have been addressed. .
Note: The item only requires approval by the Special Studies Committee.
