Shawnee is in the process of updating its sign code and design guidelines after a downtown business requested city approval for a projecting sign.
Pegah’s Family Restaurant in June had requested approval from the planning commission on a new projecting sign at its downtown location, 11005 Johnson Drive. City staff and planning commissioners were concerned that the sign was “too large and out of scale for the building facade,” according to city documents.
