FORMAL REVIEW - (ITEMS CONTINUED FROM JULY 23, 1990 MEETING) :
Item 4) Application ASAC 51,908.1, Westfield Inc. Requesting review and
approval of a sign exception for a non-building mounted freeway
oriented sign for an existing regional shopping center located at
Wolfe Road between Stevens Creek Boulevard and I-280.
Tam Robillard reviewed the staff comments, noting that there are
two freeway-oriented sign proposals: one for a pylon sign, the
other for two off-site monument signs. He explained that the
exception is from the requirement for freeway-oriented signs to
be building mounted, and size limitations. The off-site monument
signs would also need an exception for the prohibition of
off-site freestanding signage. Mr. Robillard recommended that
the exception be granted for the pylon sign, which meets the
purposes and intent of the sign ordinance.
Jahn Endicott, Westfield, Inc., reviewed staff comments and
explained Westfield's purposes and intent for freeway-oriented

signage. He further explained that Westfield prefers the
off-site freeway signs, which will better attract freeway drivers
to Vallco Fashion Park.
Terry Ferrera, Westfield Inc., answered questions from the
committee members.
Committee Member Lim questioned the sales tax figures and asked
the applicant if they would prefer the monument signage without
tenant names.
Committee Member Weber objected to any freeway-oriented signage.
Wayland Lim noted that he was not in favor of the monument signs
and was reluctant to approve the pylon signs. He felt that the
green information signs provided by Cal Trans would be more
acceptable.
Vice Chairwoman Jackson explained that the goals and ideals of
the City were clear on no freeway-oriented signage. She felt
that good shops, not necessarily signage, attracts business. She
stated that she would not support either type of signage.
A general consensus was that blue freeway directional signs would
be acceptable as long as they included other businesses as well.
DECISION:
® On a 3-0 vote, application ASAC 51,908.1 was denied pursuant to
the following findings:
1) The nature of the use ide
ntified by the freeway-oriented
sign does not require freeway-oriented signage.
2 The nat
ure of the freeway signage does not result in
practical difficulties, unnecessary hardships or
inconsistencies with the purpose and intent of the sign
ordinance.
