Jeff Hatch of Hatch Design Architecture is asking Garden City to approve a wall-mounted mural sign for the LED Dance Studio at 3300 W Chinden Blvd. The sign would go beyond the city's standard limit on how much of a building face can be used for signage, so it needs the Design Review Committee's approval as an exception. This document is a staff analysis that sets out the review findings for the committee, not a final decision.
Jeff Hatch with Hatch Design Architecture is proposing wall-signage facing Chinden located at 3300 W. Chinden Blvd., Ada County Parcel #R2734541100, in the C-1 Highway Commercial Zoning District.
