Hill Town Administrator Town of Estes Park Post Office Box 1200 Estes Park, Co. 80517 RE: Freestanding Signs/Timberline Dear Dale: RECEVED 1 auW 1 8 i9e4 Town A{intirnsn atD' MAILING ADDR P. 0. Box 701 LOVELAND, Co. 80539 This memo is written pursuant to your request that I review the situation regarding the request filed by businesses on the Timberline property for a joint identi- fication sign. This opinion is based on the following: a. The Timberline Restaurant is located on two lots, being Lots 1 and 31 of Whiteview Addition. b. The premises has (1) street frontage of less than 500 feet. c. The Timberline has an existing freestanding sign for the restaurant. d. The request filed with the Town is for an additional joint identification freestanding sign. Section 17.66.300 (7)(b) provides that where a free- standing joint identification sign is used to identify tenants in a single building or a business or industrial complex, there shall be no other freestanding signs permitted on the premises. This Section prohibits the erection of a freestanding joint identification sign where a freestanding sign is already in existence on the premises. The Section allows another joint identification freestanding sign if the street frontage is over five hundred feet which is not the case in this matter. It is my opinion that the request for a joint identification free- standing sign by those businesses in the Timerline complex cannot be permitted under this Section of the Code. Dale G. Hill June 14, 1984 Page Two Section 17.66.290 CD) provides that the total allowable sign area of all signs on any lot cannot exceed one hundred fifty square feet. Section 17.66.340 (f) provides that the Board of Adjustment cannot grant a variance for maximum sign area on a lot. Therefore, it is my opinion that the Board of Adjustment has the power to grant a variance for an additional freestanding joint identification sign on Timberline property but does not have the power to grant said variance if the total sign area of both the present freestanding sign and the proposed joint identification sign exceeds one hundred fifty square feet. If you have any questions, please give me a. call. Ve. truly yours, 7 6'L ory A.
