LAS COLINAS COMMERCIAL BUILDING SIGNAGE At the request of a number of members owning commercial buildings in Las Colinas, the Las Colinas Association is proposing to amend the Las Colinas Declaration as it pertains to Sign Restrictions for commercial buildings. Currently, signs are governed by the more than 230 Supplementary declarations to the Las Colinas Declaration and vary in degrees of restrictiveness in different manners.

The Las Colinas Association wishes for all commercial buildings to have an opportunity to identify the type and location of building signage, including allowing certain signs to be located at the top of commercial buildings. To facilitate this objective, the Las Colinas Association has adopted a set of guidelines that will serve as the basis by which the Architectural Control Committee will approve signs for commercial buildings. The guidelines will pertain to size, location, quantity, color, and illumination, as well as considerations for the architecture of the building. The guidelines will help property owners update their sign criteria accordingly.

This uniformity will enable Las Colinas to be competitive in the marketplace, promoting new corporate relocations, while maintaining the corporate presence that gives Las Colinas a unique appeal to businesses located here.

We thank you for your support on this matter. Should you have any questions, please contact Phil Ochsner, Las Colinas Association, at 972-541-2345.

WESTRIDGE CIRCLE NORTH EVENT CENTER AMBE Land Development LLC owns a 3.012-acre tract of undeveloped land at the corner of Westridge Circle North and Overview Drive. The property is covered by Supplementary Declaration No. 16, Las Colinas Area 16.

AMBE Land Development LLC is proposing to develop a single-story event center on this parcel.

The event center will be a for-rent facility, open to the public, accommodating 250 seated guests for corporate events and training, not-for-profit events, social gatherings, and weddings. The proposed building would consist of a steel structure wrapped in masonry and glass with an expansive covered patio area.

The 15,000-square-foot building will incorporate the extensive topography of the site by building on the top of the hill to give guests a wonderful view of Las Colinas. With the influx of corporate relocations to Las Colinas, the owner believes the facility will fulfill a demand in the market for luxury offsite corporate event needs, such as meetings, networking, executive retreats, etc.

The site offers excellent access from State Highways 161 and 114 along with proximity to the DART Belt Line Station and DFW Airport.

YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT! The future of Las Colinas is determined by the Las Colinas Association members—commercial and residential. Unlike typical zoning, which is decided by a select few, changes to established deed restrictions are decided by a favorable vote of a majority of all the available votes held by the members as mandated

by Chapter 215 of the Texas Property Code. A successful vote is truly a mandate that the deed restriction amendment is appropriate and in the best interests of the community. You, the members, will decide.
