With the letter, you ltere mailed a copy of the sign code relating to window signage. I spoke to Sharon on March 6th and she indicated that it was her understanding that the sign code allowed each retailer to have two window signs j-n each window. rn fact, you may have two window signs per business. The two signs nay total Lo square feet for the conbined area of the two signs. Hortever, no sign shall be greater than L5? of any window in which it is placed. In the tetter of February 20, I mention that you had four window signs. on March 4th, there were six window signs. This rnay have been due to the fact that you felt you could have two signs per window. I am requesting that you reduce your window signage to two signs by Wednesday, March l-3th. (The deadline in the letter of February 20th was February 28th. ) If for any reason you feel that you cannot rneet this deadline, please call. me with an explanation. If you do not contact me nor neet this deadline, we will have no choice but to cite you for code violation. we would prefer not to have to do this. There are other retailers with excess signage, and we are attempting to reach each of them. Thank you for your cooperation.

After the meeting, we agreed that you would call me within the next few days to let me know how much time you wou'l d need to remove the extra sign. It has now beenover a week and I have not heard any response from you. Therefore, I amrequiring that you remove the signage by June l.z, 1996. If you have any.further questions please feel frie io give me a cal'l . Si ncerel y, Kti+.^ Q"f Kristan Pritz Town Pl anner KP:jlt TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: Please see the enclosed "Sequence of Events for expla'in how the issue wjth Kidsports developed. from tapes of the Design Review Board meetings enclosed you will find three letters thar were Kidsports'signage. Town Council Community Development Department May 20, 1986 Appeal to the Town Council concerning the Design Review Board decision that Kidsports has only one Frontage and therefore is permitted only one sign for the busjness. Applicant: Paul Treacy Due to the fact that K'i dsports had two signs on its awning which were not approved by the staff or Design Review Board, the owner, Paul Treacy, was takento court for the sign code violation. Judge Buck Allen found Paul Treacyguilty of not obtaining the proper approvals for his signage. Judge Allen also asked that the owner go back to the Des'i gn Revjew Board to verify the staff's and the DRB's decisions that Kidsports had only one frontage and therefore was allowed one sign. At the April 2nd DRB meeting, the Board determined that Kidsports has only one frontage. The vote was 5-0. Mr. Treacy is now appealing to the Town Counci'l the Design Review Board's decision that he only has one frontage. The staff recommends denial of the appea'l . The sign code clearly states in Section .l6.04.110 Frontage, Business that: "Business frontage" means the lineal distance from outside to outside of a structure or portion of a structure housing a particular business or businesses directly adjacent at ground level to a major pedestrian or vehicular way. Kidsports has one frontage, East Meadow Drive. This frontage will allow the business one sign. The sign code is structured around the concept that the number of signs js based on the number of frontages a business has. To approvethis appeal would go against the methods used to calculate signage throughout the entire sign code. Kidsports' Awning" that wil'l This information was taken as well as staff records. Also sent to Mr. Treacy concerning SEQUENCE OF EVENTS FOR KIDSPORTS AI.INING March 27, .|986 This sequence concern'ing the awning was determined by listening to tapes of the Des'i gn Rev'iew Board meetings, notes in my calendar, as well as letters wri tten to Paul Treacy. November 6. .|985 At the Design Review Board meeting, Pau'l Treacy, Brad Henry, and Daniel Barry were present. Fred Hibberd was also at the meeting. The board discussed for at least an hour the shape of the awnings and how they would be attached to the building. Toward the end of the meeting it became clear that the applicants wanted to have two signs on their awning. Krjstan said thatit would be possible to have the two signs, as we have allowed other people to have two-s'i ded signs on bubble awnings and back to back signs on square awnings. At that time, she also stated that she was unaware that the submittal had incl uded two signs. The board ended up agreeing on the colors for the awnings and lettering for each business. The meeting concluded by the Design Review Eoard asking for further information on the construct'ion of the awnings, locations and numbers of signage and square footage for the signage. The applicant said that they would hand deliver the drawings in a few days to the staff and then the staff could ca'l I the DRB and invite them to look at the drawings. Kristan also mentioned to the applicants the possibility of using window signs in place of one of the signs on the awnings. Technical 1y the item was tabled with the understanding that the Design Review Board could make a decision on the awnings without a formal meeting if everyone agreed that the revjsed design was reasonable. The applicants also wanted to check with Tom Rau to see if he would be willing to change his awning for The Foreign Connection to match theirs. The drawings were then brought in within the next week and revjewed at the staff meeting. The Planning stafffelt that one sign was appropriate for each business. The applicants were called and told they would be allowed only one sign. Brad Henry was very upset about the decision and felt that the staff decision was very capricjous. He stated to me in my office that he would appeal the staff decision to the Design Review Board. November 20, .|985 Novenber ?7, 1985 December 27. 1985 January 6, .l986 January 9, .l986 January 2l , .l986 January 22, .l986 Daniel Berry, owner of Eye Pieces, also came by myoffice. He was very upset about the decjsion to onlyallow him one sign. He asked that I come by the shop and look at his frontage situatjon again to make surethat I felt strongly about our decision. I told hjm I would bring the board by during site vjsits for our November 20, .|985 DRB meeting. The Design Review Board went by Eye Pieces and got into a discussion about the appropriate number of signs for the business. Staff and the board had to move on, as we had other site visits to make. Daniel Berry and Paul Treacy came to the meeting as we werefinishing up. They waited in the audjence for a while and then seemed to have to leave. At the end of the meet'ing the board discussed the situation for Eye Pieces, Bag 'n Pack and Kidsports. It was determ.i nedthat Eye Pieces would be allowed two signs, as theyactually had two frontages. The board iid not feejthat is was appropriate for Bag 'n Pack or Kidsportsto have two signs each. It was also agreed that we would write up a policy statement at our next meeting concerning awn'ings. Daniel Berry came in to receive his approval sheetthat clearly stated that he could have two signs for Eye Pieces. I called Paul and asked what was going on with hissignage- He told me that there was a mistake by the awning company and he would get the signage corrected. 0n the same day, I wrote Paul a |etter stating that I appreciated the fact that he was already in the process of remedy'i ng the situation wjth the additional signage. I told him that it was our understanding that he would contact me by January 6 and let me know how he wjshed to resolve the signage problem. I received no word from Paul Treacy concerning the s i gnage. I called Kidsports and left a message that Paul shouldcall me. 0n January .|0, 'l 986 I wrote a letter informing him once again that the additional signage on his awning was a problem. I gave hjm a new deadline of January 21 , .|986 to remove the signage orI would have to cite him for the sign code violation. I received no word from Paul Treacy. I called Paul and he said that he would find out the tjme frame for changing the awning. I told him that I would be giving him a call on January 27,1986 to fjndout his time frame for removing the awning. I told him that if I did not receive an answer from him on the 27th that I would have no choice but to cite Kidsports for the sign code violation. January ?7,1986 I called Paul and left a message with Karen in the morn'i ng at his office. January 28, .|986 I called Paul and left a message at 8:35 am. January 29, '1986 I cal led aga'i n. The person in the store said that they saw messages for Paul and as far as they knew, he had received them. February 3, .1986 I noticed that the Bag'n Pack Shop sign was up. Peter Patten had called Brad Henry and he had said that he was going to get Jay Peterson to represent them in court. February 4, .1986 I noticed that a patch was up on the Kidsports awning additional sign. February 13, 1986 I noticed that the patch was removed from the awning. February 13, .1986 A citation was issued to Paul Treacy for the s'i gn code vi ol ati on. March 6, 1986 The sign code violation was reviewed by Judge BuckAllen. It was determined that Paul Treacy had violated the sign code. He was asked to appear at the April 2nd Design Review Board to resolve his signageissue. It was determined that if the sign rvas not allowed by the Design Review Board, the sign must be covered up to avoid further citations. lnwn 75 soulh fronlage road vail, colorado 81657 .

Due to the fact that Kidsports had two signs on its awning, the owner, Paul Treacy, was taken to court. Judge Buck Allan found paul Treacyguilty and asked him to go back to the Design Review Board to verify thestaff and the DRB decision that Kidsports had only one frontage andtherefore was allowed only one sign. At the April 2 meeting, Mr. Treacywill not be presenting a new proposal but wilI instead be confirming theboard's opinion that he has on'ly one frontage. If this opinjon is confirmed he will be required to remove the extra sign. please see the enclosed "Sequence of Events concerning Kidsports Awning" to refresh your memory on how this problem occurred. tlr SEQUENCE OF EVENTS FOR KIDSPORTS A}lNING March 27, 1986 This sequence concerning the awning was determined by listenjng to tapes of the Design Review Board meetings, notes in my calendar, as well as letters writtento iaul Treacy. November 6, .|985 At the Design Review Board meeting, Paul Treacy, Brad Henry, and Daniel Barry were present. Fred Hjbberd was also at the meeting. The board discussed for at'least an hour the shape of the a,,vnings and how th"_ would be attached to the building. Toward the end of the meeting it became clear that the appljcants wantedto have two signs on their awning. Kristrn said thaiit wou'l d be possible to have the two signs, as we have a'l 'l owed other people to have two-sided signs on bubble awnings and back to back signs on square awnings. Atthat time, she also stated that she was unaware that the submittal had included two signs. The board ended up agree'i ng on the colors for the awnings andlettering for each business. The meeting concluded bythe Design Review Eoard asking for further informat.i on on the construction of the awnings, locations and numbers of signage and square footage for thesignage. The applicant said that they would handdeliver the drawings in a few days to the staff and then the staff could call the DRB and invite them to look at the drawings. Kristan also mentioned to theapplicants the possibility of using window signs in p1 ace of one of the signs on the awnings. Technically .. the item was tabled with the understanding that the Design Review Board could make a decision on the awnings wjthout a formal meeting if everyone agreedthat the revised design was reasonable. The applicants also wanted to check with Tom Rau to see jf he would be willing to change his awning for The Foreign Connection to match theirs. The drawings were then brought in within the next week and reviewed at the staff meeting. The Plannjng stafffelt that one sign was appropniate for each busjness. The applicants were ca'l led and told they would be allowed only one sign. Brad Henry was very upset about the decision and felt that the staff decision was very capricious. He stated to me in my off.i cethat he would appeal the staff decisjon to the Des.i gn Review Board. ' Daniel Berry, owner of Eye Pieces, also came by myoffice. He was very upset about the decjsion to only aliow him one sign. he askeq that I come by the shop and look at his frontage situation again io make surethat I felt strongly about our decjsion. I told him I wou'ld bring the board by during site visits for our Novemoer 20, .l985 DRB meeting. November 20, '1985 The Design Review Board went by Eye Pieces and got into a discussion about the appropriate number of signs for the business. Staff and the board had to move on, as we had other site visits to make. Danie'l Berry and Paul Treacy came to the meeting as we we-? finishing up. They waited in the audience for a while and then seemed to have to leave. At the end of the meeting the board discussed the situatjon for Eye Pieces, Bag 'n Pack and Kidsports. It was determined that Eye Pieces would be allowed two signs, as they actually had two frontages. The board did not feelthat is was approprjate for Bag 'n Pack or Kidsportsto have two signs each. It was also agreed that we would write up a policy statement at our next meeting concerning awnings. November 27, 1985 Daniel Berry came jn to receive his approval sheetthat clearly stated that he could have two signs for Eye Pieces. December 27, 1985 I called Paul and asked what was going on with hissignage. He told me that there was a mistake by the awn'ing company and he would get the signage corrected.. On the same day, I wrote Paul a letter stating that I appreciated the fact that he was already in the process of remedying the situation with the additional ;i:["fl !' *,1, l"ll,,Hl.'13'o]'rlii"li"u":l:'i:l'*l'fl ,,", how he wished to resolve the signage problem. January 6, .|986 I received no word from Paul Treacy concerning the s ignage. January 9, 1986 I called Kidsports and left a message that Paul shouldcall me. 0n January 'l 0, 1986 I wrote a 'l etter informing hjm once again that the additional signage on his awning was a problem. I gave him a new deadline of January 2l , 1986 to remove the s'i gnage orI would have to cite him for the sign code vjolatjon. January 2l , .|986 I received no word from Paul Treacy. January 22, 1986 I called Pau'l and he said that he would find out the time frame for changing the awning. I told him that I would be giving him a call on January 27, 1996 to fjnd out his time frame for removing the awning. I told him that if I did not receive an answer from him on January ?7, 1986 January 28, 1986 January 29, 1986 February 3, 1986 February 4, .|986 February 13, 1986 February 13, .|986 March 6, 1986 the 27th that Kidsports for I called Pau'l morning at his I wou'i d have no choice but to cite the si gn code vi ol ati on. and left a message with Karen in the offi ce. I called Paul and left a message at 8:35 am. I ca'l led again. The person in the store said that they saw messages for Paul and as far as they knew, he had received them. I noiiced that the Bag 'n Pack Shop sign was up. Peter Patten had call ed Erad Henry and he had saidthat he was going to get Jay Peterson to represent them in court. I notjced that a patch was up on the Kidsports awning additional sign. I noticed that the patch was removed from the awning. A citation was issued to Pau'l Treacy for the sign code vi o lati on. The s'i gn code vio'l atjon was reviewed by Judge EuckAllen. It was determined that Paul Treacy hadviolated the sign code. He was asked to appear at the Apnil 2nd Design Review Board to resolve his signagelssue. It was determined that if the sign was not al lowed by the Design Review Board, the sign must be covered up to avoid further citat'i ons. luwn 75 soulh trontage road. yail, colorado 8i652 .

Applicant: Paul Treacy Due to the fact that Kidsports had two signs on its awning which were not approved by the staff or Design Review Board, the owner, Paul Treacy, was takento court for the sign code violation. Judge Buck Allen found Paul Treacyguilty of not obta'i n'i ng the proper approvals for his signage. Judge A1 len also asked that the owner go back to the Design Review Board to verify the staff's and the DRB's decisions that Kidsports had only one frontage and therefore was allowed one sign. At the April Znd DRB meeting, the Board determined that Kidsports has only one frontage. The vote was 5-0. Mr. Treacy is now appealing to the Town Council the Design Review Board's decision that he only has one frontage. The staff recommends denial of the appeal . The sign code ciearly states in Section'16.04.110 Frontage, Business that: "Business frontage" means the lineal distance from outs'ide to outside of a structure or portion of a structure hous'i ng a part'icular business or businesses directly adjacent at ground level to a major pedestrian or veh'i cul ar way. Kidsports has one frontage, East Meadow Drive. This frontage wilI allow the business one sign. The s'ign code is structured around the concept that the number of signs is based on the number of frontages a business has, To approvethis appeal would go against the methods used to calculate signage throughout the entire sign code. Please see the enclosed "Sequence of Events for Kidsports' Awning" that will explain how the issue with Kidsports developed. This information was taken from tapes of the Design Review Board meetjngs as welI as staff records. Also enclosed you wjl1 find three letters that were sent to Mr. Treacy concerning K'i dsports' si gnage. SEqUENCE OF EVENTS FOR KIDSPORTS AhJNING March 27, 1986 Thjs sequence concerning the awning was determined by listening to tapes of the Design Review Boand meetings, notes in my calendan, as well as letters written to Paul Treacy. November 6, .1985 At the Design Review Board meeting, Paul Treacy, Brad Henry, and Daniel Barry were present. Fred Hibberd was also at the meeting. The board discussed for at least an hour the shape of the awnings and how they would be attached to the building. Toward the end of the meeting it became clear that the appiicants wanted to have two signs on their awning. Kristan said thatit would be possible to have the two signs, as we have a'l lowed other people to have two-sided signs on bubble awn'ings and back to back signs on square awn'i ngs. At that time, she also stated that she was unaware that the submjttal had included two signs. The board ended up agreeing on the colors for the awnings and lettering for each business. The meeting concluded by the Design Review Board asking for further informatjon on the construction of the awnings, locations and numbers of signage and square footage for the signage. The applicant said that they would hand deliver the drawings in a few days to the staff and then the staff could call the DRB and invite them to look at the drawings. Kristan also mentioned to the applicants the possibility of using window signs in place of one of the signs on the awnings. Technically the jtem was tabled with the understanding that the Design Review Board could make a decision on the awnings w'i thout a formal meeting if everyone agreed that the revised design was reasonable. The applicants also wanted to check with Tom Rau to see if he would be willing to change his awning for The Fore'i gn Connection to match theirs. The drawings were then brought in within the next week and neviewed at the staff meeting. The Planning stafffelt that one sign was appropriate for each business. The appljcants were ca'l led and told they would be allowed only one sign. Erad Henry was very upset about the decision and felt that the staff decision was very capricious. He stated to me in my office that he would appeal the staff decisjon to the Design Review Board.

He was very upset about the decjs.ion to only al1ow him one sign. He asked that I come by the shop and 'l ook at his frontage situatjon again to make surethat I felt strongly about our decision. I told hjm I would bring the board by during sjte visits for our November 20, .|985 DRB meeting. The Design Revjew Board went by Eye Pieces and got into a discussion about the appropriate number of signs for the business. Staff and the board had to move on, as we had other site visits to make. Dan.i ej Berry and Paul Treacy came to the meeting as we werefinishing up. They waited in the audience for a while and then seemed to have to leave. At the end of the meeting the board discussed the situation for Eye Pieces, Bag 'n Pack and Kidsports. It was determjnedthat Eye Pieces would be al'l owed two signs, as they actually had two frontages. The board djd not feelthat is was appropriate for Bag 'n Pack or Kidsportsto have two signs each. It was also agreed that we would write up a policy statement at our next meeting concerni ng awn i ngs . Danjel Berry came in to receive his approval sheetthat clearly stated that he could have two s'i gns for Eye Pieces. I called Paul and asked what was going on with his signage. He told me that there was a mistake by the awning company and he would get the signage corrected. 0n the same day, I wrote Paul a letter stating that I appreciated the fact that he was already in the process of remedying the situation with the addjtional signage. I told him that it was our understandingthat he would contact me by January 6 and let me know how he wished to reso'l ve the signage problem.

The code alIows for a maximumof 10 square feet for the window signage. This signage is used toidentify particular types of serv'i ces, products or events. The purpose ofthis sign is not to state the name of the business, i.e. Kidsport. However, you are allowed a 3 square foot sign that will state the name ofthe business at 1.5 s.f. and the remaining 1.5 s.f. may be used for the display of hours-of operation, credit card jnformation, and s'imi'l argeneral information items. Please note that this area will not be included as part of the total allowable window coverage. In respect to the design and location of the signage, the 10 s.f. window sign may be designed as one 10 s.f. sign area or the 10 s.f. may be djvided into two signs. It is important to understand that there may not be more then two separate window signs and that the square footage for the one or two window signs must together total no more then 10 s.f. The 10s.f. could also be designed as a continuous signage band across your four window panels as long as the total square footage does not exceed 10 s.f. The 3 s.f. sign may be located in one of your windows or on your door. Itis up to you where you wish to locate this sign. The important point isthat the name of the business may be no greater than 1.5 s.f. on the 3s.f. sign. .l I have enclosed the sign code for your information. If you fcel that reare not interpreting the code properly, please let me know and I wlll be happy to discuss youn lnterpretation with you. P'lease let me know whatyou decide to do with the signage.
