Title/Name/Summary
Electronic Message Boards - Discussion

History
On June 16, 2014, the Development Services and Planning Committee discussed the potential changes to the code for electronic message boards that were last discussed by the Board of Trustees on June 2, 2014. At this time, the Village Board requested that staff develop conceptual image and sign renderings that would depict what possible sign requirements would result in and which would be consistent with the proposed enhancements along the LaGrange Corridor. Attached for the Board review are the following renderings/images:

1. Brick and masonry columns (that match the LaGrange Road enhancements) applied to three different size signs: 40 square feet, 100 square feet, and 125 square feet. Maximum sizes, heights and % of electronic message boards are also included.

2. Three potential grade variations of the monument signs as related to the elevation of LaGrange Road: at grade, 3' above grade, and 3' below grade. It should be noted that a large section of LaGrange road will have final grades that are either above or below the grade of private properties. The newly constructed retaining walls, along with fencing/guard rails, will have a visible impact on private signage and height restrictions.

3. Impact of landscape requirements at base of sign that are equal to the square footage of the sign face. Currently the signage code does not require landscaping along the base of signage except for signs that are 125 sq. ft. (Orland Square and Park Place). The additional landscape signage requirements would be new regulations.

4. Imagery page that shows existing monumentation, colors and landscaping in the LaGrange Corridor.

This discussion is now back before the Board of Trustees for discussion only. The remaining text and attachments are for historical reference and summary and include items that have been discussed and reviewed previously by the Board of Trustees.
