WHEREAS, the Eckerd Corporation, by David S. Houston, Authorized

from City Code Section l10-180(b)(2)(a) to allow building-mounted tenant signage to be
installed in a location other than the building frontage.
WHEREAS, the City Council has carefully considered the application, the
recommendation of the staff, and the testimony received at the public heating; and

sign location is appropriate because the proposal meets the requisites established by City
Code Section 110-185 for the following reasons:
1. The request meets the criteria established in City Code Section 110-366;
2. The applicant has clearly demonstrated that the signage requirements
will present a unique burden due to unusual topography, building design, or lot shape;
and
3. The City Council has determined that the granting of this special exception will not be
inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan or the purpose of the sign regulations.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Fairfax
on this twenty-eighth day of May, 2002, that Application No. SE-317-02-1 be and hereby is
APPROVED, WITH CONDITIONS, as follows:
1. Installation of the signage shall be in substantial conformance with the plans prepared
by Chandler Signs, dated May 15, 2002.
The applicant shall be permitted to install two signs reading "Eckerd" (with the
corporate trademark "x" located below the letter "r") and "Pharmacy" along the front
and side facades of the building.
3. The total square footage for the proposed signage shall not exceed 115.5 square feet.
Adopted this 28th day of May, 2002.
