Property ID#: 05-21-30-518-0000-012A
Applicant: Better Business Bureau
MOTION/RECOMMENDATION:
Ms. Adzima stated that the Community Development Division of the Community Services
Department .recommends that the Board ~~f Adjustment (BOA) review the requested
Variance (VAR 01-06) to reduce the minim~~am allowable setback from 5 feet to 0 feet for
the placement of a monument sign at 1600 South Grant Street.
EXPLANATION/BACKGROUND:
Ms. Adzima explained that the applicant is proposing to install a monument sign on their
commercial property. The required setback for all signage is 5 feet from any right-af way or
public property. The proposed location of tl.ie sign would have a setback of 0 feet which
would be a reduction of the required setback. Meeting the required 5 foot setback would
place the sign within the paved parking area beyond the landscape buffer which would
impede the intended visibility of the sign.
Kevin Spolski, 1425 E. Airport Blvd., Sanford, handed out booklets to the Board members
for review. He stated that the sign is very important because the building sits back off the
street. Mr. Spolski pointed out that many sighs on Dog Track Road appear to be on the right,
of way.
Mr. McLarnon explained his concern about the signs on Dog Track Road which appear to be
on the right of way. Mr. Sizemore said Conununity Development would have to look into
that issue which has been brought up.
Mr. Miller added that if the signs have not been permitted for that they would have to go
through the appropriate process.
Mr. Revels closed the Public Hearing.
Mr. McLarnon made a motion to approve (I~AR 01-06) as submitted. Mr. Heintz seconded
the motion. The motion was unanimously approved by a (3-0) roll call vote.
