Request
A request for 55 foot variance from the minimum 150 foot distance requirement, as described in Section 28-47 (c)(1), to allow a distance of 95 feet between two signs along a major arterial.
Executive Summary
The applicant is requesting the variance to allow a new pylon sign to be located less than the minimum 150 feet from an existing freestanding multi-tenant sign. Currently, the property has no freestanding signage to advertise the operation of a cellular wireless provider and an urgent care facility. The existing signage on site promotes the commercial strip located behind the subject property. The proposed signage will meet the allowed square footage and height and will only promote the two businesses on site.
