Division 3. Sign Area <br /> Section 3-5. Size of sins. <br /> The size of signs shall be measured and determined in the following manner: <br /> (1) If a sign is on a plate or is framed, all of the plate or frame shall be included in the <br /> dimensions. <br /> (2) If a sign is not on a plate or is not framed but is partly or entirely outlined by a light line <br /> or area, or if the sign is on a plate or is framed and circumscribed by a larger light line or <br /> area, all of the area circumscribed by a light line or area shall be included in the <br /> dimensions. <br /> (3) If a sign consists only of words, designs, or &gures engraved, painted, projected, or <br /> fixed on a wall, the total area of the sign shall be the sum of the square-foot areas of the <br /> rectangles or circles, whichever is smaller, within which each word, design or figure can <br /> be placed or inscribed. <br /> Section 3-6. Multifaced Signs. <br /> (a) The sign area for a sign with more than one face shall be computed by adding together <br /> the area of all sign faces visible from any one point. <br /> (b) When two identical sign faces are placed back to back, so that both faces cannot be <br /> viewed from any point at the same time, and when such sign faces are part of the same sign <br /> structure and are not more than 42 inches apart, the sign area shall be computed by the <br /> <br /> measurement of one of the faces. <br /> 6 <br /> <br />
