In situations where the specifications of a previously approved Uniform Sign Plan conflict with the currently adopted Sign Ordinance provisions, then the specifications in the approved Uniform Sign Plan shall control. Where a previously approved Uniform Sign Plan does not contain specifications on signage attributes, including but not limited to height, colors, placement, etc., then the provisions in the currently adopted Sign Ordinance shall control. Further, a previously approved Uniform Sign Plan which lacks specific signage attribute specifications (including but not limited to height, colors, placement, etc.) may not be amended to include such specifications unless such amendment is in accord with the currently adopted Sign Ordinance. A Uniform Sign Plan may be amended by filing a new sign plan with the Planning Department.
