Lee, P.E., Director Department of Public Works County of Hawaii Dear Mr. Lee: SUBJECT: Kailua Village Design Commission Meeting of November 17,2015' Applicant: FHG Architects ATA, LLC Land Owner: Kona Hospitality LLC Design Review of a sign variance for two wall signs and a ground sign Tax Map Key: 7-5-007:009 (COR-15-101415) This letter is to inform you that the Kailua Village Design Commission, at its November 17, 2015 meeting,voted to recommend to the Public Works Director that the three signs proposed in the subject variance application be revised as to their size or placement as set forth below prior to your referral of this application to the County Council for its consideration of the requested variance: 1. The design of proposed wall sign facing Sarona Road(north side of the building),which is to be mounted on the portico facade above the building's main entrance, should be replaced by the alternate design presented by the applicant at this review meeting, a copy of which is attached to this'letter"as"Exhibit A." Specifically, the alternate design and any illumination of this wall sign should be within the following standards,for consistency with the objectives and guidelines for signs within the core area of Kailua Village: a. The green and white"H"logo rectangle should be relocated to be above and centered over the sign text for design symmetry with the building's architecture.The"H"logo in this location should have a maximum dimension of 16"x 16"to keep scaling appropriate to this narrow,light and slow traffic street frontage location. The text lettering should be raised, and painted with a non-reflective blue or green. b. The Commission prefers that indirect lighting(rather than interior illumination)be used to illuminate this sign,particularly due to its being situated within and oriented toward the Kailua Village core area. In either case,the Commission requests that a sign permit for this sign include a limitation on the light intensity allowed from this sign to be no more lumens than necessary for this wall sign to be visible from a distance equivalent to that from the sign to the Kuakini Highway—Henry Street intersection(approximately 700 feet).
