10-4-905: STANDARD OF REVIEW FOR SIGN ACCOMMODATIONS:
The architectural commission shall approve a sign accommodation application if the commission finds that the unified sign plan submitted with such application utilizes colors, materials and other design features which are architecturally compatible with the subject building and the commission finds that:
   A.   The unified sign plan is in conformity with good taste and good design and, in general, contributes to the image of Beverly Hills as a place of beauty, spaciousness, balance, taste, fitness, broad vistas, and high quality;
   B.   The unified sign plan indicates the manner in which the signs will be reasonably protected against external and internal noise, vibrations and other factors which may tend to make the environment less desirable;
   C.   The proposed signs are not, in their design and appearance, of inferior quality such as to cause the nature of the local environment to materially depreciate in appearance and value; and
   D.   The proposed signs are in harmony with proposed development in the area of the subject property, with the general plan for Beverly Hills, and with any specific plans governing the subject site.
The architectural commission may impose such conditions on an accommodation approval as it deems necessary to make the findings required by this section or as it deems appropriate to protect the public health, safety and general welfare. (Ord. 93-O-2181, eff. 11-19-1993)
