North City Master Sign Program (CSP19-00003)

San Marcos

Description

Appeal of the Planning Commission's 7-0 approval of the sign program governing all North City signage, from 45-foot freeway pylon signs to wayfinding banners. The council denied the appeal and let the program stand.

Impact summary

Sets the look and height of all future North City signs; actual sign locations will come back through individual permits, with light-spill standards already in the zoning code applying.
