LL �tY.�'t LOUISVILLE REVITALIZATION Lau�sville COMMISSION COLORADO -SINCE 1.878 SUBJECT: DISCUSSION- SIGNAGE AND WAYFINDING DATE: NOVEMBER 10, 2020 PRESENTED BY: MEGAN E. PIERCE, ECONOMIC VITALITY DIRECTOR SUMMARY: There was consensus among the Committee members in October to pursue a new program focus: Streetscape & Connectivity for Downtown. The potential program components have been incorporated into a revised draft of the Work Plan. DISCUSSION: Based on the short timeframe between meetings, staff has not been able to gather much new information on the suggested Phase I Wayfinding Signage project. However, to provide more context for future discussions, staff is sharing information about the existing City of Louisville Signage & Wayfinding Plan. A presentation of the final plan from 2017 is included as Attachment #1. Like most, Louisville's Signage & Wayfinding Plan was contemplated in phases. The Location Plan included in the attachment represents Phase I for the City as a whole in the dark colors. However, all of the signage designated within the Urban Renewal Area (URA) boundaries is feasible for the LRC in its first phase. A future LRC phase can consider what of the remaining signage program would integrate with the goal of improving connectivity to the URA at the community gateways and other key areas. The attached document also provides more context about the signage family itself — including materials, size, and height. If the LRC has any questions about the signage family, staff can attempt to address those in developing the scope of work. It may be helpful for Commissioners to see the monument sign that was installed following plan adoption. It is located at 104t" Street and Empire Road (near the FedEx facility); a photo is also shown below. Agenda Packet P. 8
