RE: LIMITED SIGN PERMIT 7830 'Edinger Ave.
Attention : Staff Review
S duzrr ? iPrcic fz.t4cS1c
Washington Mutual Bank, FA is seeking to gain a Limited Sign Permit for two years from
May 31, 1999 at7830 Edinger Ave. Within the last several years, Washington Mutual has
entered the California market by merging with three f ancial institutions with significant
Southern California presents.
This Washington Mutual Financial Center at 7830 Edinger Ave. is a two-story, 15,946
square foot building, currently services approximately 8,000 households in the community
of Huntington Beach and Westminster. The hours of operations are from 9:00am to
6:00pm Monday through Friday, and 9:00am to 1:00pm on Saturdays. This Financial
Center has approximately 35 employees offering banking, consumer loans, home loans,
and investment services to customers and the surrounding community.
We believe Washington Mutual's name and trademark need to be visible in the
community. The extended two-year Limited Sign Permit for the pylon sign aiong Edinger
Avenue will allow Washington Mutual sufficient opportunity to establish market presence.
Reducing the sign height now would produce a financial hardship for this Financial
Center. Before the termination of the two-year extension of the Limited Sign Permit,
Washington Mutual will take appropriate action to comply with current City sign
ordinances.
Thank you for allowing Washington Mutual to submit this application for a Limited Sign
Permit. Attached, please find the application requirements, which include the Permit
Application, site/building plans, elevations, renderings and Photographs. Please contact
Stephen Armstrong at (818) 775-4009 if additional information is required for the Staff
Review.
