A request for a 120 square foot variance from the 375 square foot maximum sign area, as described in Section 28-239, to allow for a sign with 495 square feet in area.
Executive Summary
The subject property is located at 2961 Mossrock Drive, approximately 57 feet west of Panda Drive. The applicant is seeking permission to add to their existing signage. The applicant, Health Texas, wishes to add a banner to their existing pole sign to state "San Antonio Express News - Top Workplaces". The applicant could place the proposed signage on the wall of the building, but they site existing landscaping, including several mature trees which block the view, as making that technique less effective.
In all, the existing sign is at the maximum advertising area, being 375 square feet. The proposed ten by twelve foot banner would add an additional 120 square feet of advertising area. The applicant is seeking a variance to allow for 495 square feet of advertising space.
