Summary
The Walton County Design Review Board approved a 49.5-square-foot monument sign for the 98 Central (formerly Santa Rosa Commercial) development near the corner of Highway 98 and Musabayee Road in District 5; the sign is smaller than the 80-square-foot maximum allowed by code.
The Walton County Design Review Board on May 1 approved a monument sign for a commercial development now referred to as 98 Central (previously described as Santa Rosa Commercial) near the corner of Highway 98 and Musabayee Road in District 5. Planning staff said the proposed monument sign measures 66 inches by 108 inches for a stated total of 49.5 square feet, and noted that although the master sign plan shows monument locations, each monument sign requires separate approval.
Staff indicated the sign is compliant with the county’s standards and said the relatively modest size reflected appropriate scaling to the parcel. Board members praised the sign for not exceeding taller, oversized monument formats and moved to approve the application as presented. The motion carried by voice vote recorded as "Aye." Staff will process the monument sign permit according to the approved master sign plan and the county’s sign-permit procedures.
Board and staff also referenced that some building signs had been installed prior to the completion of the master sign plan process for the center; staff said those issues had been handled in the project file and that the monument approval addresses the planned signage layout in the master sign plan.
