MEMORANDUM
TO: HONORABLE CHAIRPERSON AND MEMBERS OF THE

FROM: SOL BLUMENFELD, DIRECTOR COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
SUBJECT: DOWNTOWN GATEWAY SIGNAGE — PIER AVENUE

COMMISSION
BACKGROUND:
The Downtown Implementation Plan, approved by the City in 1994, calls for streetscape
improvements along Pier Avenue as part of the downtown revitalization program. Pier Plaza was the
first element of the Plan implemented in 1996. Gateway signs identifying the main entry to the
downtown and located on both sides of the street at Pier Avenue near Pacific Coast Highway are
among the improvements proposed in the plan. On the north side of Pier Avenue, the gateway sign
will be located on private property and on the south side it will be located on public property. On
November 12, 2002, the City Council referred this matter to the Public Works Commission for
development of a design and cost estimate and to study the relocation of the Community Center
monument sign relative to the gateway sign location.
ANALYSIS:
The property at Pier Avenue and Pacific Coast Highway has recently been redeveloped with a
new Union Bank. Pursuant to Planning Commission approval, the southeast corner of the property
includes electrical conduit and irrigation lines to service the City's proposed sign. Please see the
attached site plan. The City worked with the project developer on the north side to ensure that the
gateway location was provided as part of the project approval. The City Attorney is working with
Union Bank on a long term lease to install and maintain the sign. Since one of the gateway signs is
to be located on Community Center property, the project design should also be considered relative
to its location on one of the City's designated parks. Now that Union Bank has been completed, the
City can commence with obtaining the services of a qualified designer to prepare a plan and proceed
with the gateway project.
