Mission Hacienda Plaza sign program and downtown design character
The shopping center's owner wants a secondary monument sign — about 33 feet long, 6 feet tall, and 40% larger in sign area than code allows — to help visitors find tenants and to screen new EV charging equipment. The commission likes the goal but wants better drawings before granting the exception.
