(Please see aerial photo under Tab 2.) This facility serves as a major medical facility for the I.U. Medical Group providing a wide array of medical services to patients. Kite is requesting the approval of two additional directional signs to facilitate better and more efficient travel within the site and to assist patients, visitors and vendors in locating the appropriate entrance into the building. Kite is proposing additional directional signage to be located on the canopy above the drive-up entrance to the building. (Please see the sign drawings under Tab 4 and the site plan under Tab 3.) The proposed signage clearly identifies the building's north entrance and directs traffic to the west entrance to the building. These signs are aluminum with acrylic and vinyl sign faces and are internally illuminated. Under the Carmel Zoning Ordinance (the "Ordinance"), exempt traffic directional signs may not exceed 3 square feet in sign area and may not be higher than 3 feet above ground level. The two proposed directional signs will be installed onto the existing canopy of the building and will have a sign area of 13 feet each. The proposed signs will facilitate the safe flow of traffic through the site and identification of the proper entrance for patients, visitors and vendors. The signs are of a size and design to integrate into the canopy and to effectively direct traffic. The location of the signs will make them visible to site traffic entering the site from Illinois Street but not to adjacent properties. At the November 1, 2005 meeting of the Carmel Plan Commission-Special Studies Committee, Kite presented plans for a monument directory sign and the two canopy signs for approval under Docket # 0510018 ADLS Amend. (The monument directory sign is not a part of this variance application, because it is a permitted sign under Section 25.07.02-10(b) of the Ordinance.) The monument directory sign and the two canopy signs were approved as presented. However, the Special Studies Committee did recommend that Kite consider either relocating the canopy sign for the west entrance or modifying the sign arrow. In response to this recommendation, Kite revised the canopy sign for the west entrance to change the directional arrow so that it would not be confused with the north entrance signage. This change to the directional arrow is consistent with the approval and recommendation of the Special Studies Committee. The approved canopy signs are included in this information booklet under Tab 4. - - -- .9l VMS "I 01 OnNflOW HSll1:l 9tlIlNROW NOllVNlWllTIl1N33S3HOlll:l HOOOHHl MGHS Ol311HM lANlA SPM:l1 03H !'iltC6'd 1JJIA >l3'dlBll1J6OO'd S3JHdW9 >In'dl9 ON'd 03H 30'd:l NO lAN,^ 1N3001VN'dH1 HUM nanv 3llHM .8/~ 33V:f >In'dlB 031NIVd d330 .8 NI>lS WllNIWlll'd HUM NOllnOw.SNOn 3WW:l :n9NV WllNIWIl1V SHOIS lVHOl.l33UI0 OUVHIWnlll ~ H3V3 3HO 11VISHI on UV3IU8V:.I -- .9l ,!), .~ - - - - - - - - - - -
