REPORT: The owner of 286 Duke St. W. operates a new art studio at this location. She wishes to install two projecting signs on the building, both perpendicular to the street to allow people to see the business while approaching the building. There is a sign proposed for the Breithaupt St. side of the building and a sign proposed for the Duke St. W. side of the building. A sketch is attached illustrating the sign locations. The building is located directly at the property line which results in the proposed signs being located over the Duke St. W. and Breithaupt St. road allowances. The proposed signs would encroach approximately .66 metres, more or less, into the City's road allowances and are located approximately 3 metres off the ground. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: N/A COMMUNICATIONS: N/A CONCLUSION: The appropriate staff has reviewed this request and supports the legalization of the proposed projecting signs into the Duke St. W. and Breithaupt St. road allowances.
