Mayor Wheeler will introduce an amendment for City Council consideration at the upcoming public hearing on the Rose Quarter Sign Code Project scheduled to start at 2:45 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 30.
The proposed amendment adjusts the limit on signs that face the Interstate 5 freeway and are within 100 feet of the freeway right-of-way. The current recommendation limits individual signs to 200 square feet in these situations. The amendment expands this limit for an individual sign up to 1,000 square feet. The expansion allows greater flexibility for signage along the east wall of the Moda Center while still maintaining some limitation.
The City Council will consider this amendment at a public hearing on Wednesday, Oct. 30 starting at 2:45 p.m. along with the other recommendations for amending the City’s Sign Code, Title 32. The project is intended to provide greater flexibility for a variety of signage in a newly created Rose Quarter Entertainment sign district. The Recommended Draft of the Rose Quarter Sign Code Project is available for review and public testimony is welcome.
