        The business occupies a space of at least 20,000 s.f. in area.
      2. b.
        The wall sign is mounted on the same garage facade as the business facade that is obscured. (For example, if the east facade is obscured, the wall sign shall be mounted on the east facade of the garage.)
      3. c.
        Only one wall sign is allowed per facade on the garage.
      4. d.
        The wall sign is limited to 10% of the area of the lesser of the obscured facade or the garage facade.
