(1) New Development/Project Sign: One non-illuminated ground sign, not exceeding 50 square feet in area, and 14 feet in height is permitted on the premises of each proposed building or development project. Such sign may be installed after a building permit has been obtained for the construction project and must be removed not later than two years after issuance of the building permit for the project or upon completion of the project, whichever is first. No more than one sign shall be erected on the premises of each construction project and such sign shall be subject to the same setback requirements as are imposed for structures in this zone.

(2) Hospital Signs: Signs exceeding the dimensional standards of Article VI may be approved subject to Section 10.184 Conditional Use Permit. In addition, such approval shall be based on review and approval of an integrated sign program for the entire facility and on a determination that the signs proposed to exceed the standards of Article VI are the minimum necessary to facilitate proper identification of hospital activities. In no case shall ground signs exceed 15 feet in height or 100 square feet in area, nor shall this provision allow an increase in the numbers of signs otherwise allowed by this section. For the purpose of this section, “hospitals” are those that are licensed for at least 150 inpatient beds, and emergency services.
