The proposed sign type, height and size comply w~h City code. I think the wrought iron signs with cast bronze letters will be a classy addition and feature to Tarawood Sub. The only concern I have is the locations of sign #1 and #2. City Ordinance 11-14-6 prohibits signs within public rights-of-way. The 5-foot landscape strip befirveen the curb and sidewalk is within ACHD's public right~of-way. From an aesthetic and design perspective, I don't have an issue with these two signs and I understand the need to differentiate Tarawood from Los Alamitos on the north side. However, my hands are tied due to Ordinance 11-14-6. If you can obtain permission from ACHD (either through their License Agr ment process or some other formal written approval) and submit said approval to the City demonstrating you have permission to erect the sign in the public right-of-way, we can approve these locations. Otherwise, the signs must be erected on private property. The location of Sign #3 is approved as it is within a common lot owned by the Tarawood HOA. I will wait to hear back from you on your decision on this matter. At that time, I will forward the application to the Building Department to issue the sign permit for you.

Watertower Ln., Suite 202 Meridian, ID 83642 Re: Tarawood Subdivision Entrance Signs Dear Brad: Enclosed are the following: 1. Commercial Sign Permit Application; 2. Drawing of proposed signs; and, TELEPHONE (20S) 336-1020 FACSIlIIII.E (20 S) 336-1027 3. Plat of Tarawood showing location of three signs with red x's for location of signs. I propose to install three wrought iron signs at the three entrances to Tarawood Subdivision as follows: 1. The text of the sign shall be Tarawood with the letter "T" at 6 1/2 inches high and the remaining "arawood" at 5 inches hig::. 2. The overall size of the sign shall be 6 foot high with the actual sign being 40 inches wide and 22 inches high. 3. The posts are 4 inch wrought iron imbedded in concrete. The sign itself shall be metal. 4. Colors: The sign shall be painted black to match the wrought iron fence, but the lettering shall be cast bronze letters in the style shown on the drawing and installed by Signs by Smith, 375-2750. Brad Hawkins-Clark Meridian Planning & Zoning November 7, 2001 Page Two 4. Location: See enclosed plat for locations of signs. Sign No. 1 shall be installed in the 5 foot landscaping area between the sidewalk and the curb. This is provided for in the CCR's. Sign No. 2 may or may not be installed in the 5 foot landscaping area because of the transition from Tarawood sidewalks to the adjoining subdivision sidewalks which are conhect:ed to the curb. If this cannot be located in the landscape area at the northern boundary of the subdivision, it will be installed either (1) in the northern 5 foot easement area for utilities to the west of the sidewalk for that particular lot or, (2) in the landscape area between lots 10 and 11. Sign No. 3 shall be installed in the 5 foot landscaping area in line with the wrought iron fence of the 9 Mile Drain. Please note, there does not appear to be any intersections near any of these signs that would block access to a crossing street. Would you please inform me of your decision on these signs as soon as possible. I would like to install them upon approval from the City. If you have any questions, please feel free to call me.
