DISCUSSION
The County of Orange hired Knightsbridge Architectural to review the
directional Signage in and around the Civic Center and prepare a Signage
plan to assist the public in locating the various offices and
governmental agencies in the Civic Center. The consultants are
recommending changes to the directory signs, building identification,
vehicular Signage, and installation of marquees at intersections in the
Civic Center. On January 30, 2007 the concept plan was presented to and
approved by the Board of Supervisors.
The Board of Supervisors directed County staff to present the Signage and
landscape plans to the City for review and approval. The Board also
authorized the Resources and Development Management Department staff to
revise concept designs as necessary to meet the City of Santa Ana and the
Civic Center Commission design review and for subsequent construction
permit approval requirements.
The signage concept plan was reviewed by City staff in Planning, Public
Works, Police and Parks, Recreation and Community Services Agency. On May
4, 2007 the concept signage plan was presented to the Civic Center
Commission. The Civic Center Commission provided input and approved the
signage proposal. County staff will be at the meeting to present the
Civic Center Signage Concept Plan to the City Council.
