19930914 r-93-38RESOLUTION NO. 1993- R-93-38
WHEREAS, Stanley-Martin Bailiwick Limited Partnership, has
submitted application No. SE-121-93-1 requesting a Special Exception
to City Code Sections 26-43(a)(3), 26-43(a)(8), 26-44(a) and 26-44 Table I
to permit a ground mounted sign less than the required 20 feet from
any property line, at the Chancery Square site at 4166, 4200, 4210, 4230
and 4236 Chain Bridge Road;
WHEREAS, City Council has determined that the proposed
Special Exception is appropriate and meets the requisites established
by City of Fairfax Code Sections 26-48 and 26-103(c), for the following
reasons:
1. The proposed sign in the requested location will not interfere
with traffic safety
2. In order to achieve visibility of the identification sign at the
requested location (on Chain Bridge Road near the Armstrong
Street intersection), it must be placed parallel to Chain Bridge
Road.
3. Because the masonry entrance wall and landscaping features are
permitted less than 20 feet from the property lines, the mass is
already permitted on the frontage at that location.
2. The proposal, by incorporating signage into a land/hardscape
feature, is consistent with the sign ordinance to limit and
consolidate signage and with the Community Appearance
chapter of the Comprehensive Plan.
5. Granting the requested Special Exception will not produce any
negative impacts on the community.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the
City of Fairfax on this 14th day of September, 1993, that
application No. SE 121-93-1 be and hereby is APPROVED and
ADOPTED this 14th day of September, 1993.
