Sarasota, FL 34233
RE: Development Order regarding case SGN2002-09007 at 18524 US Hwy. 19 N.
(Quality Self-Storage)
Dear Mr. Creenan:
On July 3,2001, the Planning Staff approved your application for a Comprehensive Sign
Program (CSP) to increase the area of a proposed attached sign from 10 square feet to 14
square feet. The application also includes a request to increase the area of a proposed
freestanding sign from 10 square feet to 20 square feet.
On October 14, 2002, the Planning Staff reviewed a revised application for a
Comprehensive Sign Program (CSP) to increase the area and number of proposed
freestanding signs from one sign of 20 square feet to two signs totaling 81 square feet
(less than one half the width of the property of 200 feet along Nursery Road).
The proposal includes installing a new, 61 square foot sign along the front (east) property
line along U.S. Highway 19 North. The sign will read "QUALITY SELF STORAGE" in
white letters with the phone number of the establishment listed below also in white letters
and four inches in height. The background of the sign will be teal and will include two
reader boards beneath with black letters on a white background. The sign will be located
on the north side of the existing driveway five feet from the front (east) property line
along US Highway 19 North. The sign will be 13.5 feet in height and nine feet in width.
The base, four feet 10 inches in width, will be light beige in color to match the primary
color of the existing building. It constitutes 6.5 feet of the overall height of the sign.
Black address numbers six inches in height will be located on the base approximately five
feet above grade.

The proposal also includes relocating an existing 20 square foot freestanding sign, 7.5
feet in height (currently located along the east property line along U.S. Highway 19
North) to the front (north) property line along Nursery Road. The sign reads "QUALITY
SELF STORAGE" in white letters with the phone number of the establishment listed
below also in white letters and four inches in height on a teal background. The relocated
sign includes a base, four feet in width, also painted to match the existing building and ~
constitutes 3.3 feet of the overall height of the sign. The sign will be located on the ~ U"'::>T
side of the driveway along Nursery Road. The address will be indicated as 18524 US
Hwy. 19 N. No changes are proposed for the appearance and physical dimensions of the
sign. The application for the Comprehensive Sign Program has been approved for the
signs as submitted (see attached) with the following three conditions:
1. That all banners and other nonconforming signs be removed prior to the issuance
of any permits;
2. That all flags be removed from the right-of-way prior to the issuance of any
permits;
3. That an inspection be arranged by the applicant to ensure that all requirements of
Section 3-1801 are met, prior to the issuance of any permits,
4. That all setback and sight visibility triangle requirements be met, and
5. That all signs be located within a minimum 12 square foot landscape area.
Pursuant to Section 4-303, an application for a building permit shall be made within one
(1) year of the date of this Development Order (November 8, 2003). All required
building approvals shall be obtained within one (1) year of the date of issuance of the
initial building permit. Permitted time frames do not change with successive owners.
Please be aware that the issuance of this Development Order does not relieve you of the
necessity to obtain any building permits or pay any fees that may be required. In order to
facilitate the issuance of any permit or license affected by this approval, please bring a
copy of this letter with you when applying for any permits or licenses that require this
prior development approval.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call Mark T. Parry, Planner at

Regarding SGN2002-09007; 18524 US Hwy 19 North - Quality Self Storage comprehensive
sIgn program
The submitted sign needs to be redrawn for the following reasons:
1. Under the provisions of Section 3-1806.B.l.e. (The height of a freestanding sign shall not
exceed one and one-half times the width of the sign structure or 14 feet whichever is
less.) the submitted sign is too tall. The width of the sign is nine feet. One and a half
times the width would be 13.5. The height of the sign is shown at 14 feet.
2. Under the provisions of Section 8-102 Sign area or surface area means the area, in square
feet, enclosed by a rectangle, parallelogram, triangle, circle, semicircle, cross, other
geometric figures, or other architectural design, the side of which make contact with the
extreme points or edges of the sign, excluding the supporting structure which does not
form part of the sign proper or of the display. Unless otherwise indicated, area means
area per sign face. Illuminated portions of a sign structure shall be considered part of the
sign area. Also. any portion of the surface area of a freestandin2 si2n structure that
exceeds 50 percent of the permitted area of the si2n face shall be considered part of
the si2n area. The area of a sign for attached signs is based on the smallest geometric
shape(s) around the graphics/text; area for sign cabinets used as attached signs shall be
based on the entire sign cabinet. Note the bolded, underlined portion of the definition.
The base of the ~l is 67.5 square feet or 110 percent 0' tip area of the sign face. The
allowable area of the base is 30.5 square feet. Reducing the height of the base to 3.89 feet
will provide a base with an area of 30.5 square feet, permitted by Code. It would also
meet the height limitations by providing a sign with an overall height of approximately 11
feet.
Resubmit one rendered, scaled and dimensioned drawing for review. Include the exact color
and materials of the base. Clarify whether the base will be as dark a brown as shown and if it
is simply painted emu or if will be a stucco finish.
