Applicant Request
:
    • APPROVED BY STAFF 6/4/2012: Install a ticket dispenser, pay station, two parking gates and two informational signs. These will all be installed in the entry/exit driveway island. There will be a 4.275 square-foot sign attached to the back of the pay station that will be visible to customers entering the lot. This sign will have pricing and other lot information. There will be a .825 square-foot sign attached to the exit gate bar. See the attachments for additional information.
      • -----------------------------------------------------------
      • FOR REVIEW BY BOARD: Install a 17.5 foot pole for two hanging signs. The pole will be located in the island beyond the entrance gate, furthest from the street. The larger of the two signs is 18.3 square feet and will to advertise the parking lot. The smaller sign is 8.8 square feet and states that parking is free for Crown and Goose customers. The signs will be non-illuminated.

Property Notes / Work to be Completed
    • The large parking lot sign states "Public Parking". This could be confusing for customers thinking it is a lot owned by the City or County, which in most cases offer free parking on nights and weekends. The city will be installing new public parking signs as part of the wayfinding program and these will have the large letter "P" with the word "PUBLIC" (see attached examples). This signage will be installed on the adjacent public parking under James White Parkway/Hall of Fame Blvd. The proposed sign will have a different design than the wayfinding signage but it can still be confusing. Most other private parking lots simply say "Parking", or another option could be "Open to the public".
