FLIPPEN, BUILDING AND ZONING OFFI IAL 7)• DATE: MARCH 1, 2000 SUBJECT: CASE NO. 04VR-99: ST. PAUL'S PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH,INC. VARIANCE APPLICATION SIGNAGE ISSUE Should the Honorable Mayor and Board of City Commissioners approve the subject variance application that would enable St. Paul's Presbyterian Church, Inc., the opportunity to build a site identification sign along its West Colonial Drive property frontage (see attached Exhibits "1-3", "Site Location Maps")? BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION The Applicant, St. Paul's Presbyterian Church, Inc., desires to erect a thirty-six (36') square foot dual pole site identification sign (see Exhibit #6, Amended 2-18-00) along its West Colonial Drive frontage; however, the road right-of-way for West Colonial Drive and adjacent private property slopes steeply into the "Seven Lakes Wetland". The Applicant has, therefore, applied for two variances from the provisions of Ordinance No. 99-23, commonly referred to as the "Activity Center Regulations", "Signage Design Standards", "Free-Standing Ground Signs", (see Exhibit#4 and#5). VARIANCE ONE Sub-paragraph (c)(i) states that "Free-Standing ground signs...shall not exceed 12 feet in height." Due to the previously mentioned steep slope of the West Colonial Drive right-of-way, the Applicant is requesting a twenty-four(24') foot sign height above ground level,which will be no more than twelve (12') foot above the adjacent paved surface (see Exhibit#3).

CITY MANAGER ELLIS SHAPIRO Staff Report March 1, 2000 Page 2 VARIANCE TWO Sub-paragraph (c)(iii) states that "No part of any free-standing ground sign shall be located closer than 10 feet away from public right-of-way..." Again, due to the steep slope of the West Colonial Drive right-of-way, the Applicant is requesting a five (5') foot setback to help reduce the overall sign height. BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT The Board of Adjustment at its February 17, 2000, public hearing voted unanimously to recommend the approval of both of the required variances. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the requested variances to the two cited provisions of Ordinance No. 99-23 because the road right-of-way conditions that necessitated the hardship requests are beyond the control of the Applicant and are not self-created. Secondly, the two requested variances have been reviewed by Staff and are deemed minimal departures from the Code in light of the existing circumstances which will not injure the public health, safety, and welfare and are consistent with the overall intent of the"Activity Center Standards".
