BACKGROUND: , The applicant is requesting the following variances to permit the existing freestanding sign, attached sign, and directional signs to remain: 1) 'An area variance of 86.6 square feet from the permitted 64' square feet to allow a total freestanding sign area of 150.6 square feet; 2) A height variance of. 12.75 fe'et from the permitted 20 foot height to allow a freestanding sign 32.75 in height; 3) A setback variance~ of 3 feet from the five foot setback requirement to allow a freestanding sign two feet from the street right-of-way; 4) A variance of two message panels from the permitted two message panels to allow a freestanding sign with a total of four message panels; 5) An area . variance of 27 square feet from the permitted 64 square feet to allow an attached sign with a total area of 91. square feet; and 6) An area variance of 0.95 square feet from the permitted four square feet to allow an on-site directional sign with a total of 4.95 square feet.

Total for site Staff Comments/Proposed Conditions: The new sign ordinance is being uniformly applied to all signs in this zoning district. The applicant is requesting four variances to permit the existing freestanding sign to remain. These variances are for height, area, setback, and additional panels. The applicant has not provided any evidence that these variance requests arise from any conditions unique to this property. The applicant is requesting one variance for additional attached signage area. There are two existing attached signs with one sign oriented toward each street. The applicant contends Grandy's is voluntarily removing "an all important wall sign which faces U.S. 19" thereby reducing the amount of total square footage below City allowances. This contention is not consistent in the application of the sign regulations or with the variance being requested. The applicant further contends that installation of significant landscaping is "probably very unique to Gulf-to-Bay" . However, the landscaping of the front of the property does not constitute a unique condition for justification of additional signage. The applicant has not provided any evidence that this variance request arises from any conditions unique to this property. The applicant is requesting one variance to allow four onsite directional signs to be 0.95 square feet over the permitted four square foot signage permitted. This appoars to bo a minimal variance, however, the code clearly states business logos on those signs shall not exceed 25 percent of the sign uroa. Tho logos on those signs occupy approximntoly 60 porcont of tho sign area. The applicant has not provided nny evidence that this varianco request mises from any conditions unique to this property. C.C. / /93 SV 93-25 PAGE 3 Theso variance requests are oxtreme with regard to the setback, height, number of message panels, and area. The magnitude and numbor of variances requested cannot be considered minimal requests. SURROUNDING LAND USES Direction II Existing Land Uses North South East West Professional Office Georgia's Restaurant, Shopping Center Carfinders, Inc. used car sales Spinal Health Center, Chiropractic Services (medical offices) These signs are located on Gulf-to-Bay Boulevard. a very high exposure corridor with a high volume of tourist traffic. The combination of height, setback, number of panels, and area of these variance requests create signs that are not in character with the signage permitted for the. surrounding commercial areas and diverts attention from those land uses. The granting of these variances will detract from the commercial businesses that have conforming signage and negatively impact the overall appearance of the community. Applicable Variance Standards To be eligible for a variance, a request must meet all eight standards for variance approval. Based upon review and analysis of the information contained in the application, staff finds that the petitioner's request meets only two of the standards. In particular, the following standards do not appear to be fully met: (1) The variance requested arises from a condition which is unique to the property in question and is neither ordinarily or uniformly applicable to the zoning district nor created by an action or actions of the property owner, predecessor in title, or the applicant. Any mistake made in the execution of a building permit or work performed without the benefit of. a permit shall not be considered to be situations which support the granting of a variance. . . , I (2) The particular physical surroundings, shape or'topographical conditions of the property involved and the strict application of the provisions of this development code would result in an unnecessary hardship upon the applicant. (3) The variance is the minimum necessary to overcome the unnecessary hardship referred to in preceding recital "2" for the purpose of making reasonable use of the land. (5) The granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental or injurious to other property or improvements in tho neighborhood in which the property is located. (6) The granting of the variance will not impair an adequate supply of light or ventilation to adjacent property, detract from the appearance of the community, substantially incroase the congestion in the public streets, increase the danger of fire, endanger the public safety in any way, or substantially diminish or Impair tho value of surrounding proporty. (8) The granting of tho varianco dosired will not violate the general spirit nnd intont of this development code. .

Hlllsborough Avenue Suite #100 Tampa. FL 33635 (813) 854.2050 STATEMENT OF SUPPORT GRANDY'S. GULF TO BAY BLVD. To. the Honorable Members of the City of Clearwater City Commission:., The reasons for the support of these two variances arc clear and direct. This ~s an existing poie sign, which is being cited to bring it into conformance with the'City\s code. Grandy's is making severe reductions at this site to comply ,with the City. In regtird to the total square footage of signagc that can appear at this site, Grandy's. will be below the allowable Umits. ~ ' , First, in regard to~the free standing sign, Grandy's proposes to reduce the existing free standing sign; 'with a remaining additional 24.4 feet over City code. This stems primarily from the counting of the signage which includes unused" space on the sign, in the to~ half of the face; along with the logo of Grandy's. Additionally, the use of a message'board is extremely important to the site, and 0 pure minimum is used now. " Most importantly, Grandy's is voluntarily removing an all important wall sign, which faces U.S. 19, which is signage allowed to be used by code. thereby reducing the amount' of total square footage at the site below City allowances. This stems from the installation at the site of significant landscapingt in the front yardt which Grandy's installed of their own desires. which is a ,very important and strongly benefiting ~reen area on the site...probably ve~y unique .to Gulf to DaYt in that area. Grandy's would like to preserve that area. and move signage usage away from the buildingt 'onto the proposed existing free standing sign. . In regard to the set bock, this variance is directly in regard to the nicely landscaped ,area in the front. As pictures show. n further set back will eliminate proper visibility. and will reduce it in the future to almost 'complete elimination. ~...~. /. < =i~ '11 ~ ,~. .oJ' 'I:.' " ~ ~ " i . "L.

BACKGROUND: The applicant is requesting the following variances to permit an existing freestanding sign to remain: 1) An area variance of 191 square feet from the 64 square feet permitted to allow a total of 255 square feet; and 2) A setback variance of 2.5 feet from the required five foot setback to allow a freestanding sign 2.5 feet from the Gulf-to-Bay Blvd. right-of-way.

C.C. / /93 SV 93~31 PAGE 2 Staff Comments/Proposed Conditions: The new sign ordinance is being uniformly applied to all signs in this zoning district. The applicant contends the sign's location on the property with respect to existing landscaping and the existing building minimizes the impact of t~e excessive size. However, .there remains sufficient area on the site to place a sign that conforms to setback and area requirements of the code. The applicant has not provided any evidence that these variance requests arise from any conditions unique to this property. This variance request is extreme with regard to the permitted area of a freestanding sign and cannot be considered a minimal request. I -I SURROUNDING LAND USES Direction II Existing land Uses North South . East West Eunice Little, Inc. Realtors Exchangors Tampa Bay (Across Gulf-to-Bay Blvd.) Florida Department of Transportation office Vacant lot A vacant lot exists to the west and Florida Department of Transportation offices are to the east. No businesses are located to the south across Gulf-to-Bay Blvd. The existence of this 255 square foot freestanding sign is not in character with the signage permitted for commercial businesses in this zoning district. The granting of thIs variance will detract from the appearance of the community. Applicable Variance Standards To be eligible for a variance, a request must meet all eight standards for variance approval. Based upon review and analysis of the information contained in the application, staff finds that the petitioner's request meets only two of the standards. In particular, the following standards do not appear to be fully met: (1 ) The variance requested arises from a condition which is unique to the property in question and is neither ordinarily or uniformly applicable to the zoning district nor created by an action or actions of the proporty owner, predecessor in title, or the applicant. Any mis~ake made in the execution of a building permit or work performed without the benefit of a permit shall not bo considered to be si1:uations which support the granting of a variance. (2) The particular physical surroundings, shape or topographical conditions of the property involved and the strict application of the provisions of this development code would result in an unnecessary hardship upon the applicant. The variance is the minimum necessary to overcome the unnecessury hardship reforred 'to in preceding recital "2" for the purpose of making reasonable use of the land. (3) " . ~ .

(6) The granting of the variance will not impair an adequate supply of light or ventilation to adjacent property, detract from the appearance of the community, substantially increase the congestion in the public streets, increase the danger of fire, endanger the public safety in any way, or substantially diminish or impair the value of surrounding property. , " (8) The granting of the variance desired will not violate the general spirit and intent of this development code.

BACKGROUND: ,The applicant is requesting an area variance of 97.04 square feet from the permitted 109 square feet to allow an attached sign with a total area of 206,04 square feet. The subject property is located at the northeast corner of Cleveland 8t, and N. Garden Ave., and is in the Urban Center (Core) zoning district.

Printed on recyc e paper SV 93-11 6 Page 2 Staff Comments/Proposed Conditions: Subject 'property is developed with the Barnett Bank office building, The variance application regards the sign on the east face of the building iust below the roofline. The applicant proposes to remove the existing 80 square foot sign, and replace it with a 206,04 square foot sign. The existing sign is a "can;1I the proposed sign will be channel letters. According to code, using the sign area bonus for the exceptional sign height, a 109 square foot sign is allowed. The applicant contends that the permitted sign size of 1 09 square feet results in an unreadable sign and that the letters comprising the sign must be a minimum of five feet in height to be readable at a reasonable distance. However, staff review indicates this is not the case, The sign on the west' face of the building measures 100 square feet, and is easily read from a minimuni of a ,quarter mile away. Further, the sign an the Sun Bank building located directly across 'the street from this building is 92 square feet, and is also easily read at' a distance of a quarter mile. To allow a sign for Barnett Bank that is double the size of the Sun Bank would clearly confer a privilege upon this applicant that is not available to others in the downtown.

Nisk (Representative). (SV 92-78) RECOMMENDATION/MOTION: , Deny variances to allow nonconforming signage to remain on property identified as Sec. 1-29-15, Clearwater Industrial Park, N. 300' of the E. 265' of Lot 14 for failure to meet Sec. 45.24 Standards for Approval, items (1 )-(4), (6), and (8). . 0 and that the appropriate officlals'bc authorized to execute same. BACKGROUND: The applicant is requesting the following variances to allow an existing freestanding sign to remain: 1) An area variance of 96 square feet from the permitted 64 square feet to allow a total freestanding sign area of 160 square feet; and 2) A height variance of 3,33 feet from the permitted height of 20 feet to allow a total freestanding sign height of 23.33 feet. The subject property is located on the southwest corner of Belcher Road and Logan Street and is in the Limited Industrial (IL) zoning district. Pertinent summary information is listed in the following table. , Information Existing Permitted Type of Sign Freestanding Yes Location/orientation of sign Belcher Road Yes Area 1 60 square feet 64 square feet Setback 8 feet 5 feet Height 23.33 feet 20 feet Rnllwed by: Legal Budget Purchasing Risk Mgmt.

The attached copy of the permit verifies the date of sign permit issuance, It is reasonable to assume that application for this sign was made prior to the October 13, 1985 deadline date for the new sign ordinance to take effect. The issuance of the sign permit confirms the City has taken the position of accepting this as a legal' nonconforming sign. However, even if the sign permit was issued in error, that mistake is not considered grounds for the granting of a variance. The applicant has not provided any evidence that these variance requests arise from any conditions unique to this property. The area variance request of 96 square feet is extreme and cannot be considered a minimal request. Although the 3.33 height variance may be considered minimal, the height variance will not be necessary if the area of the sign is reduced to comply with tt1e regulations, SURROUNDING, LAND USES I I , i I I ! Direction ~ Existing Land Uses North South East West City of Clearwater Fire Station 4 Simpson Cleaning System manufacturing plant Salvation Army Community Worship Center Industrial The existence of this 23.33 foot high, 160 square foot sign is not in character with the signage permitted for the surrounding commercial areas and diverts attention from those land uses. The granting of this variance will detract from the commercial businesses that have conforming signage, the residential areas, and negatively impact the overall appearance of the community. Applicable Variance Standards To be eligibte for a variance, a request must meet all eight standards for variance approval. Based upon review and analysis of the information contained in the application, staff finds that the petitioner's request meets only one of the standards, In particular, the following standards do not appear to be fully met: (1) The variance requested arises from a condition which is unique to the property in question and is neither ordinarily or uniformly applicable to the zoning district nor created by an action or actions of the property owner, predecessor in title, or the applicant, Any mistake made in the execution of a building permit or work performed without the benefit of a permit shall not be considered to be situations which support the granting of a variance.

Yes Yes Setback 112 sq. ft. 5 ft. 20 ft, 300 ft. Staff Comments/Proposed Conditions: Subject property is developed with the Dimmitt Chevrolet auto dealership. According to the information contained in the application, the area variance is requested because the construction of overpasses to the north and south of subject property will impair visibility of the "Dimmitt Chevrolet" sign, Staff notes, however, the code allows signs to be placed on properties which adjoin overpasses at elevations above the overpass for the purpose of allowing signs to be seen from the roadway. It should not be necessary to provide additional sign area due to roadway and overpass construction projects, The applicant is requesting additional sign height due to the existence of trees in the vicinity of the existing sign. The variance requested is to allow the sign to remain at a height of 42.5 ft. - more than double the height allowable. Staff does not regard this to be a minimum variance, Staff is very concerned about the prospect of losing any trees in the City, but in this case, the balance tips in favor of making the sign,conform. The City's Environmental Management Division has been asked to prepare a report in advance of the scheduled public hearing on this item describing the probable affect of variance denial on the existing vegetation, The sign separation variance requested is minimal and, consequently, is supported by staff.

Any mistake made in the execution of a building permit or worl<. performed without the benefit of 'a permit shall not be considered to bo situations which support tho granting of a variance. ,(2) The particular physical surroundings, shape, or topogrClphlcal conditions of tho,property involved.and the strict application of the provisions of this dovolopment code would resul~ in an unne~essary, hardship upon the applicDn t.' " , ' , (3) , The variance is the minimum necessary to overcome tho unnocessary hardship referred to in preceding recital "2" for the purpose of making roasonablo uso of tho, land. '(4) The request for a variance is not based primarily upon tho desire of tho applicont to secure a. greater financial return from the proporty. (5), The granting of the variance 'will not be matorially dotrlmontal or Injurious to other property or improvements in' the neighborhood in which tho proporty Is located.

(Owner- Applicant); Joshua Magidson (Representative), (SV 93-50) RECOMMENDA TION/MOTI ON: Approve a height variance of 2,75 feet from the permitted 20 feet to allow a freestanding sign with 'a height of 22.75 feet to permit the freestanding sign to remain with nonconforming height on property identified as Sec. 30-28-16, Countryside Village Square, Lot 6, for meeting Sec. 45,24 Standards for Approval, items (1 )-(8). [J and that the appropriato officials be authorIzed to execute sarno. BACKGROUND: , The applicant is requesting a height variance of 2.75 feet from the permitted 20 feet to allow a freestanding sign with a height of 22,75 feet. The subject property is located on the east side of U,S. 19, north of Enterprise Road, and is in the Commercial Center zoning district. Pertinent summary information is listed in the following table.

"." , ... . " SV 93-50 Page 2 Staff Comments/Proposed Conditions: The applicant contends that the additional sign height is necessary due to the construction of a frontage road alongside the U.S. 19 overpass at Countryside Blvd, Staff research reveals that the Florida Department of Transportation acquired additional right of way for U,S. 19 in this location approximately seven years ago, causing the sign to be relocated. The right of way width is 290 feet in front of Merrill Lynch. The right of way is evenly divided; that is. there is 145 feet of right of way for each half of the highway. The standard width for U.S, 19 is 200 feet, with 100 feet for each half of the highway, In effect, the right of way acquisition caused the sign'to be located further from the centerline of the highway. Sign permit records reveal a variance was granted February 12, 1987 to permit the relocation of this ,nonconforming sign, and was subject to the condition that the height of the sign be reduced to 20 ft. A permit was issued on March 10, 1987, and in spite of the condition of approval, plans accepted with the application indicated a sign height of 22.75 ft., thus allowing the nonconforming sign height to remain. Although the increased right of way width places the sign further from the centerline of U.S. 19 than signs on other similarly zoned properties on this highway, this circumstance alone is not cause for granting a height variance, If, however, the permitting error described above is considered, along with the width of the right of way, a variance of 2,75 ft is a minimal request. SURROUNDING LAND USES Direction ~ Existing Land Uses North South East West Olde Discount Stockbrokers, Knickerbockers on the Water Restaurant PetsMart, Office Depot Inverness condominiums Village at Countryside Shopping Center (across U,S. 19) Commercial uses surround the subject property. The existence of this 22.75 foot high sign is not totally out of character with the signs permitted for the commercial uses in the area. The granting of this variance will not bestow a special privilege upon this applicant not available to others in this zone by establishing an advertising advantage for the applicant, Applicable Variance Standards To be eliaible for a variance, a request must meet all ei~ht standards for variance approval, Based upon review and analysis of the information contained In the application, staff finds that the petitioner's request for the height variance meets all of the standards, In particular, the following standards appear to met: (1) The variance requested arises from a condition which is unique to the property in question and is neither ordinarily or uniformly applicable to the zoning district nor created by an action or actions of the property owner, predecessor in title, or the applicant. Any mistake made in the execution of a building permit or work performed without the benefit of a permit shall not be considered to be situations which support the granting of a variance. (2) The particular physical surroundings, shape or topographical conditions of the property involved and the strict application of the provisions of this development code would result in an llnneCessary hardship upon the applicant. (3) Tho varianco is the minimum necessary to ovorcome the unnecessary hardship referred to in preceding recital" 2" for tho purpose of making roasonable use of the land. (4) Tho roquost for a varianco is not based primarily upon tho dosiro of the applicant to secure a greator financial raturn from tho property. (5) The granting of tho variance will not bo materially detrimontal or injurious to other property or improvements in the neighborhood in which the proporty is located, .. - I" . , " I .: . .~ . " , I (8)' " SV 93-50 Page 3 The granting of the variance will not impair an adequate supply of light or ventilation to adjacent property,. detract from the appearance of the community, substantially increase the congestion in the public streets, increase the danger of fire, endanger tho public safety in any way, or substantially diminish or impair the value of surrounding property. The vadance desired will not adversely affect the public health, safety, order convenience, or, general welfare of the community. l The granting of the variance desired will not violate the general spirit and intent of this development code. .

The applicant is requesting an area variance of 32,3 square feet from the permitted 150 square feet to allow an existing freestanding sign to remain with total area of 182.3 square feet. Staff notes that the existing sign contains the address of the property which entitles this sign to an eight square foot area bonus. Therefore, the area variance request of 32,3 square feet may be reduced to 24.3 square feet: The subject property is located on the west side of U,S. 19, south of Countryside Boulevard, and is in the Commercial Center zoning district. Pertinent summary information is listed in the following table. RsvlClwod by: Legal N/A Budget N/A Purchasing N/A Risk Hgmt. , N/A C1S N/A ACH Other N/A Oriolnulinll Olpt: CENTRAL PERHITTING I.

Further, the sign is setback a greater distance from the right of way than the five feet required by code. According to the variance application, the sign is 20 from the right of way. Given these circumstances, it is staff's position that the existing sign will be a low impact sign as viewed (indeed, if able to be viewed) from the U.S. 19 overpass. SURROUNDING LAND USES Direction ~ Existing Land Uses North South East West Ramada Inn Toys~R-Us Shopping center (across u.s. 19 overpass) CIGNA offices Commercial and professional office uses surround the subject property. The existence of this 182.3 square foot freestanding sign (174.3 square.foot sign excluding the address) with a height 10 feet less than permitted and a setback 15 feet greater than required is in character with the signage permitted for the commercial businesses in the area, The granting of this variance will not detract from the commercial businesses that have conforming signs. Applicable Variance Standards To be eligible for a variance, a request must meet all eight standards for variance approval, Based upon review and analysis of the information contained in the application, staff finds that the petitioner's request meets all of the standards. In particular, the following standards do appear to be fully met: (1) The variance requested arises from a condition which is unique to the property in question and is neither ordinarily or uniformly applicable to the zoning district nor created by an action or actions of the property owner, prodocessor in title, or the applicant. Any mistake made in tho execution of a building permit or work performed witl10Ut the benefit of a permit shall not be considered to be situations which support tho grnnting of a variance. SV 93-66 Page 3 (2) The' particular physical surroundings, shape or topographical conditions of the property involved and the strict application of the provisions of this development code would result in an unnecessary, hardship upon the applicant. (3) ,The variance is the minimum necessary to overcome the unnecessary hardship referred to in preceding recital "2" for the purpose of making reasonable use of tho land. (41 The request for a variance is not based primarily upon the desire of the applicant to secure a greater financial return from the property. (5) The granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental or injurious to other property or improvements in the neigh~orhood in which the property i~ located. (6) The granting of the variance will not impair an adequate supply of light or ventilation to adjacent property, detract from the appearance of the community, substantially increase the congestion in the public streets, Increase the danger of fire, endanger the public safety in any way, or substantially diminish or impair the value of surrounding property. (7) The variance desired will not adversely affect the public health, safety, orde,:>convenience, or general welfare of the community., ' (8) The granting of the variance desired will not violate the general spirit and intent of this development code.

Any mistake mode in the exec'ution of 0 building permit or work performed without the benefit of a permit sholl not be considered to be situations which support the granting of a veriance.

No, CC 2~273:i Notllry Public, Commission No. IName of Notary typed, printed or stamped) REASONS FOR REQUESTING VARIANCE 1) As the property is setback off of the roadway and fully landscaped, a portion of the sign is used, for the purpose ,of placing the address of thepropeFty in plain view for the benefit of, tenants, customers, and the postal/delivery. system" Further, as a result of the alteration of US 19, traf fie is proceeding. at' a substantially higher rate of speed which, consequently, required the benefit of a larger sign area 't~ facilities reading of the contents at said higher speed rate. . ' ,~, I' 2) As stated above, the property adjacent to US 19, is fully landscaped and the sign has been const~ucted to blend into the surrounding landscape and building construction, in that the sign supports are constructed of brick and the roof is also designed to match the ma~n building design. 3) 'As the s{gn presently 'contains only the present tenant; name and address of the complex, the property owner$ are only attempting to delineate the minimulR information to the public and to properly serve the needs of the tenant without 'attempting to secur~ any increased financial return from the property. 4) As the properties in all directions are commercial, the granting of this requested variance will not be det~imental or injurious to the surrounding.'property or businesses and, in fact, as a result of the sign design and,construction, would only tend to enhance the overall quality of the area. I : ~ . ;,; oJ" . , , I' . 5) The granting of this variance would support the general spirit of the development code by allowing a clean, professional, , uncluttered, and informative sign to stand in an area of US 19 Hhere signs, which although they may comply with code, do not tallow or enhance the general decor of thIs professional area. ~t would seem that the signage in question would tend to encourage others to design and construct signs which have their own ,architectural quality and integrity.'

Automotive (Owner/Applicant); Connie Thomas (Representative)" (SV 93-87) RECOMMENDATION/MOTION: , Deny variances to permit existing nonconforming attached signage to remain on property identified as Lot 6, Block 10, Aiken Sub., for failure to meet Sec. 45.24 Standards for Approval, items (1 )-(~). '[J and that thl! appropriate officials be Buthorlzl!d to eXl!cutl! soml!. BACKGROUND: The applicant is requesting the following variances to allow the existing attached signage to remain: (1) a variance of one wall sign from the permitted three wall signs to allow four wall signs, and (2) an area variance of 132.4 square feet from the permitted 64 square feet to allow 196,4 square feet of attached signs. , ' The subject property is located on the northwest corner of Court St, and Prospect Ave., and is in the Urban Center, Eastern Corridor zoning district. Pertinent summary information is listed in the table below. I. Information Existing , Permitted Type of signs Attached Yes Location/orientation of sign Court St. Yes Area 196,4 sq. ft, 64 sq. ft.

Staff notes that attached sign sizes permitted by the sign code are based upon the setback of the building from the street. The fact that this building is located 75 feet from the street is not unique to this property, Further, the requested area variance is triple the area allowed by code, A variance request of this magnitude is not minimal. SURROUNDING LAND USES Direction II Existing Land Uses North South East West Commercial Commercial Commercial Commercial The existence of attached signs having an area of 1 96.4 square feet is not in character with the signage permitted for the surrounding commercial areas and diverts attention from those land uses. The granting of these variances will detract from businesses that have conforming signs and from the appearance of the community, Applicable Variance Standards: To be eligible for a variance, a request must meet all eight standards for variance approval. Based upon review and analysis of the information contained in the application, staff finds that the petitioner's request does not meet the standards. In particular, the following standards do not appear to be fully met: (1) The variance requested arises from a condition which is unique to the property in question and is neither ordinarily or uniformly applicable to the zoning district nor created by an action or actions of the property owner, predecessor in title, or the applicant. Any mistake made in the execution of a building permit or work performed without the benefit of a permit shall not be considered to be situations which support the granting of a variance. (2) The particular physical surroundings. shape or topographical conditions of the property involved and the strict application of the provisions of this development code would result in an unnecessary hardship upon the applicant. (3) The variance is the minimum necessary to overcome the unnecessary hardship referred to in preceding recital "2" for the purpose of making reasonable use of the land, (4) The request for a variance is not based primarily upon the desire of the applicant to secure a greater financial return from the property, (5) The granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental or injurious to other property or improvements in the neighborhood in which the property is located. , ' t' , , SV 93-87 Page 3 , , (6) The granthlg of the 'variance will not impair an ~dequate supply of light or ventilation to adjacent property, detract from the appearance of the community, substantially increase the congestion in the public streets, incroase the danger of fire, endanger the public safety in any way, or sub~tantially diminish or impair the value of surrounding property. (7) The variance desired will not adversely affect the public health, safety, order convenience, or general welfare of the community, I ,I I , , , ' (8) , The granting of the variance desired will not violate the general spirit and intent of this development code. - Relevant Previous Decisions by the Commission: ATTACHED SIGN AREA ICASE # , ADDRESS NAME VARIANCES "':, ,MEETING REQU ESTEDI ACTION DATE", ' , i , SV 91-01 2000 Drew St. Shell Oil 84.8 s . ft./Denied 217/91 SV91-16 601 Clevelana St. Sun Bank , 43 sq, ft./ Approved 8/15/91 5V 92-19 27001 U,S. 19 J.e, Penney 329 sq; ft.1 Denied '0/15/92 Co.

It is a V-shaped sign, placed around two large live oak trees. Because it is placed around the oak trees, it extends half way into the setback area. Further, because it is V-shaped, the sign area is calculated by taking the sum of the two faces, If the sign faces were placed back-to-back, the sign would qualify as a double-faced sign, and only one face would be measured for the purpose of determining the area. However, the aesthetics of sign and the property would, to some extent, be comprised if such action were required. In conclusion, it is staff'.s position that above-described conditions combine to make the property and sign unique, and the variance minimal. \, 1 Direction North South East West SURROUNDING LAND USES fl Existing Land Uses Medical and professional offices (across Lakeview,Rd.) Clearwater Rehabilitation & Sports Medicine Center Edgewater Commercial Park Professional offices Commercial and professional office uses surround the subject property, The setback and appearance of this sign is well integrated with the site landscaping, causing it to be in character with the signage permitted for the surrounding uses. The granting of the' area variance will not detract from the appearance of the neighborhood or the City. Applicable Variance Standards: To be eligible for a variance. a requost must moot 011 oight standards for variance approval. Based upon review and analysis of tho informotion contained in the application. staff finds that the petitioner's request for varionces moots all of tha stondurds. In particulur, the following standards do appear to be fully mot: ,) , , (2) . (7) (8) , , SV 92~92 ' ' Page 3 (1 ) The variance requested arises from a condition which is unique to-the property in question and is neither ordinarily or uniformly applicable to the zoning district nor created by an action or actions of the property owner, predecessor in title, or the applicant. Any mistake made in the execution of a building permit or work performed without the benefit of a permit shall not be c~nsidered to be situations which support the granting of a variance. . The particular physical surroundings, shape or topographical conditions of the property involved and the strict application of the provisions of this deyelopment code would result in an unnecessary hardship upon the appIi,cant. The variance is the minimum necessary to overcome the unnecessary hardship referred to in preceding recital "211 for the purpose of making reasonable use of the land. The request for a variance is not based primarily upon the desire of the applicant to secure a greater financial return from the property. (3) (4) (5) ~ .. . . The granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental or injurious to other property or improvements in the neighborhood in which the prope,rty is located. The granting of the variance will not, impair an adequate supply of light' or ventilation to ' , 'adjacent property, detract from the appearance of the community, substantially increase the congestion in the public streets, increase the danger of fire, endanger the public safety in any way, or substantially diminish or impair the value of surrounding property. The variance desired will not adversely affect the public health, safety, order convenience, or general welfare of the community.' , The granting of the variance desired will not violate the general spirit and intent,of this development code.

Type of sign Location/orientation of sign Area Setback Height . Staff Comments/Proposed Conditions: Subject property has generous frontage- in excess of 700 feet - on U.S. 19, thereby causing the property to qualify for a second, or auxiliary, freestanding sign. The applicant is requesting variances to allow this sign to be larger and higher than allowed by code, The applicant indicates that,the freestanding sign on Enterprise Rd. will be removed, and not replaced, The applicant states these variances are warranted because roadway improvements will limit access to, and viewing of, the shopping center. That is, the existing access from Enterprise Rd. is going to be closed in conjunction with improvements to the U.S, 19/Enterprise Rd. intersection. The applicant points out, with the closing of tho access, advertising on this roadway will no longer be functional. Staff regards this property to be unique given its frontage on, and future lack of direct access to, Enterprise Rd. However, staff does not regard the requested variances to be minimal. The height being requested is 25% greater than allowed, and the area is 92% greater than allowed. Further, placing more signage on one road in reciprocation for less signage on another is a circumstance the code precludes. Section 44.51 (2)(d) states: "Lots fronting on two or more streets functionally classified as collector or arterial streets are allowed tho permitted signage for each frontage, but such signage cannot be accumulated and used on one street in excess of that allowed for the lot based on that one street frontage. Ii Further, it is not clear that the applicant will suffer any hardship if a sign of conforming size and height is erected. SURROUNDING LAND USES Direction ~ Existing Land Uses North South East West Retail Retail, restaurants Retail Office SV 93-44 Page 3 The placement of an auxiliary sign with a height of 20 foot high and an area of 144 square feet is not in character with the signage permitted for other commercial properties and diverts attention from those other uses and signs, The granting of these variances will detract from . the businesses that have conforming signs and negatively affect the appearance of the community , Applicable Variance Standards:' To be eligible for a variance, a request must meet all eight standards for variance approval. , Based upon review and analysis of the information contained in the application, staff finds that ' the petitioner's request does not meet standards (2)-(8). In particular, the following standards do not appear to be fully met: (2) The particular physical surroundings, shape or topographical conditions of the property involved and the strict application of the provisions of this development code would result in an unnecessary hardship upon the applicant, (3) The variance is the minimum necessary to overcome the unnecessary hardship referred to in preceding recital 11211 for the purpose of making reasonable use of the land. (4) The request for a variance is' not based primarily upon the desire of the applicant to, secure a greater financial return from the property. (5) The granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental or injurious to other property or improvements in the neighborhood in which the property is located. (6) The granting of the variance will not impair an adequate supply of light or ventilation to adjacent property, detract from the appearance of the community, substantially increase the congestion in the public streets, increase the danger of fire, endanger the public safety in any way, or substantially diminish or impair the value of surrounding property. (7) The variance desired will not adversely affect the publ,c health, safety, order convenience, or general welfare of the community, , (8) The granting of the variance desired will not violate the general spirit and intent of this development code; - ~ SV 93-44 Page 4 Relevant Previous Decisions by the Commission: FREESTANDING SIGN AREA CASE # ADDRESS ' NAME VARIANCES MEETING : REQUESTEDI ACTION DATE - SV 91-02 25191 U.S, Dimmitt Cadillac 12.3 sq. ft. add'l to allow 3/21/91 19 129,3 sq, ft,/Denied SV 92-02 26210 U.S, Village at 124 sq. ft. add'l to allow 1/2/92 19 Countryside 280 sq, ft./Denied SV 92-03 2301 Sunset Great Western 42.3 sq, ft, add'l to allow 1/16/92 Point Rd, Bank 66.3 SQ. ft./Denied SV 92-87 20865 U.S. Public Storage 32 sq, ft, add'! to allow 3/25/93 19 144 SQ. ft./Denied SV 92-05 20162 U.S. Suncoast Inn 38 sq. ft, add'l to allow 5/7/92 19 150 SQ. ft./Approved SV 93-06 1 621-1627 ConneW s Plaza 144 sq. ft. add'l to allow 9/28/93 Gulf to Bay 208 sq. ft.IDenied Blvd, SV 92-40 1528 Orthopaedic 32.4 sq, ft. add'l to allow 9/28/93 lakeview Rd, Surgery Center of 56.4 sq. ft./Approved Clearwater SV 92-41 26508 U.S. Ramada Inn 55 sq. ft. add'! to allow 9/28/93 19 105 Sq. ft./Approved SV 92-46 1824 N.

Clearwater City Commission Agenda Cover Memorandum 3: Item # Heeting Dote: 3/'7/91 SUBJECT: Variance to the Sign Regulations; 1821 Drew Street; M., Joseph Connelly, Jr ./Connelly' s Used Auto Rent, Inc., (Owner/AppJicantlR'epresentative). (SV 93-80) RECOMMENDA TION/MOTION: Deny a height variance of 2.8 feet from the permitted 20 feet to allow a freestanding sign 22.8 feet high, on property identified as the north 90 feet of Lots 1 and 2, and east 20 feet of Lot 3, Block F, Unit 4 of Skycrest Subdivision, for failure to meet Sec. 45.24 Standards for Approval, items (1 )-(8). Approve a setback variance of five feet from the required five foot setback to allow a freestanding . sign zero feet from the Drew Street right-of-way, on property identified as the north 90 feet of Lots 1 and 2, and east 20 feet of Lot 3, Block F: 'Unit 4 of Skycrest Subdivision, for meeting Sec. 45.24 , , Standards for Approval, items (1 )-(8), subject to the condition that the sign height be reduced to , conform to code within 60 days of this public hearing. D and that the appropriate officials be authorized to execute same. BACKGROUND: The applicant is requesting the following variances to a allow the existing freestanding sign to remain: (1) a height variance of 2.8 feet from the permitted 20 feet to allow a freestanding sign 22.8 feet high, and (2) a setback variance of five feet from the required five foot setback to allow a freestanding sign zero feet from the Drew Street right-of-way. The subject property is located on the southwest corner of Drew Street and N. Orion Avenue and is in the General Commercial zoning district. Pertinent summary information is listed in the following table. Reviewld by: Legal Budget Purchasing Risk Hgmt. CIS ACM Other N/A _Ij/A NIA N/A N/A ...-rtL;/'I....

Printed on reeve e pnpcr SV 93~80 Page 2 Information Existing Freestanding Drew Street 37.5 square feet o feet 22.8 feet Permitted Type of sign Location/orientation of sign Area Setback Height Yes Yes 64 square feet 5 feet 20 feet Staff Comments/Proposed Conditions: The existing freestanding sign is nonconforming in two ways: it is 2.8 feet too tall, and it lacks a setback from the Drew St. right of way. It is noteworthy that the sign conforms to the size limitations: in fact, it is considerably undersized. In this zone, 64 square feet is allowed. The existing sign area is 37.5 square feet. The applicant states that since the existing sign encompasses only 37.5 square feet, perhaps a trade-off based on overall size could be approved. Though the proposed trade-off of height for area may be tempting, staff does not believe this is consistent with the spirit of the code and the standards for variance approval. The height variance represents a 14% departure from the maximum allowed by code. The sign area is 41 % less than the maximum allowed by code. Many properties on Drew St. have altered or replaced signs in order to conform to the height and area requirements of the code. It would be inequitable to those who have lowered signs to meet the City's 20 foot limit, to allow this sign to extend over the limit. Further, staff does not believe it would be unreasonable to "sleevelt the existing sign in order to reduce the height. If this property owner, or any future owner, has an interest in increasing the sign area, that is a right allowed by code. Staff does not, however, advocate strict enforcement of the code regarding the setback. It is staff's position that the cost to the applicant to relocate the sign would outweigh the benefit derived by the public as a result of relocation. SURROUNDING LAND USES Direction 11 Existing Land Uses North South East West The Front Porch shopping center Offices, single family residential True School Chainwheel Drive bicycle Shop Commercial, office, and residential uses surround the subject property. The existence of this 22.8 foot high freestanding sign is not in character with the sign heights permitted for the surrounding properties. The granting of this variance will detract from businesses that have conforming signs and negatively impact the appearance of the community. r.'. '. fl.' SV 93.80 Page 3 Applicable Variance Standards: To be eligible for a variance, a request must meet all eight standards for variance approval. Based upon review and analysis of the information contained in the applicatiof'l, staff finds that the ' petitioner's request does not meet the standards. In particular, the following standards do not appear to be fully met: (1) The variance requested arises from a condition which is unique to the property in question and is neither ordinarily or uniformly applicable to the zoning district nor created by'an action or actions of the property owner, predecessor in title, or the applicant. Any mistake made In the execution of a building permit or work performed without the benefit of a permit shall not be considered to be situations which support the granting of a variance. (2) The particular physical surroundings, shape ortopographical conditions of the property involved and the strict application of the provisions of this development code would result in an unnecessary hardship upon the applicant. (3) The variance is the minimum necessary to overcome t,he unnecessary hardship referred to in preceding recital "2" for the purpose of making reasonable use of the land. , (4) The request for a variance is not based primarily upon the desire of the applicant to secure a greater financial return from the property. (5) The granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental or injurious to other property or improvements in the neighborhood in which the property is located. (6) The granting of the variance will not impair an adequate supply of light or ventilation to adjacent property, detract from the appearance of the community, substantially increase the congestion in the public streets, increase the danger of fire, endanger the public safety in any way, or substantially diminish or impair the value of surrounding property. (7) The variance desired will not adversely affect the public health, safety, order convenience, or general welfare of the community. (8) The granting of the 'variance desired will' not violate the general spirit and intent of thfs development code. ' I, .

(SV 93-92) RECOMMENOA TION/MOTION: Deny variances to allow existing nonconforming on-premise freestanding sign to remain on property identified as Lots 15, 16 & 17, Block D, Temple Terrace 1 st Add., for failure,to meet Sec. 45.24 Standards for Approval, items (1 )-(8). o and that the appropriate officials be authorized to execute same. BACKGROUND~ ,The applicant is requesting the following variances: (1) a height variance of eleven feet from the permitted. eight feet to allow a freestanding sign 19 feet high, (2) an area variance of 22,7 square feet from the permitted 24 square feet to allow a freestanding sign with an area of 46.7 square feet, and (3) a setback variance of 1.2 feet from the required five feet to allow a freestanding sign 3.8 feet from the Drew St. right of way. The subject property is located on the northwest corner of Drew St. and Terrace Dr., and is in the ,Limited Office zoning district. The variance is requested to permit the existing on-premise freestanding sign to remain. Pertinent summary information is listed in the following table.

Permitted Type of sign Location/orientation of sign Area Yes Yes Setbaclc Height 24 sq. ft. 5 ft. 8 ft. Staff Comments/Proposed Conditions: The applicant is requesting that the eXisting on-premise sign be allowed to remain until the completion of the Drew St. widening project. It is scheduled to begin in April or May of this year and should be completed in approximately one year. No additional right of way is necessary for this project. It is not clear from the variance application why the City should postpone the requirement for compliance until after the roadway is widened. The widening project does not cause this property to be unique; other Drew St. properties that have conforming signs are similarly situated. Because no additional right of way is needed, there does not exist the prospect of relocating the sign again at some later date to account for future right of way acquisition. In sum, staff can find no condition to warrant granting these variances. It is noteworthy that a second freestanding sign (a billboard) exists on tl,is property in violation of the code. This violation will be handled separately from this variance application. 'SURROUNDING LAND USES Direction ~ Existing land Uses North South East West Residential Church Car sales Office building .The existence of this 19 foot high, 46.7 square foot sign is not in character with the signage permitted for the surrounding area and diverts attention from.nearby land uses. The granting of this variance will detract from businesses that have conforming signs as well as negatively affect the appearance of the community. 8nplicable Variance Standards: To bo eligible for a variance, a request must moot all eight standurds for varitlnce approvtll. Based upon review and anDlysis of tho information containod in tl1e application, staff finds tl1at ~. . : , " SV 93-92 Page 3 the petitioner's request does not meet the standards. In particular t the following standards do not appear to be funy met: (1 ) (5) (6) (7) (8) , The variance requested arises from a condition which is unique to the property in question' and is neither ordinarily or uniformly applicable to the zoning district nor created by an action or actions of the property owner, predecessor in title, or the applicant. Any mistake made in the execution of a building permit or work performed without the benefit of a permit shall not be considered to be situations which support the granting of a variance. (2) The particufar physical surroundings, shape or topographical conditions of the property involved and the strict application of the provisions of this development code would result in an unnecessary hardship upon the applicant. The variance is the minimum necessary to overcome the unnecessary hardship referred to in preceding recital' "2" for the purpose of making reasonable use of the land. (3) (4) , The request for a variance is not based primarily upon the desire of the applicant to secure a greater financial return from the property. The granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental or'injurious to other property or improvements in the neighborhood in which the property is located. The granting of the variance will not impair an adequate supply of light or ventilation to adjacent property, detract from the appearance of the community, substantially increase the congestion in the public streets, increase the danger of fire, endanger the public' safety in any way, or substantially diminish or impair the value of surrounding property. The variance desired will not adversely affect the public health, safety, order " ' convenience,' or general welfare of the community. . The granting of the variance desired will not violate'the general spirit and intent of this development code. ' ,. . ' . r , i . .' !.

(SV 93-99) RECOM MENDA TION/MOTrON: Deny an area variance of 20.35 square feet from the permitted 64 square feet to allow a freestanding sign with an area of 84.35 square feet on property identified as Lot 8, less the S. 32 ft. , and E. 20 ft., in A. H. Duncan Sub. of Clara Duncan Sub., for failure to meet Sec. 45.24 Standards for Approval, items (1 )-(8). , o and that the appropriate officials be authorlted to executc same. BACKGROUND: The applicant is requesting an area variance of 20.35 square feet from the permitted 64 square feet 'to allow a freestanding sign with an area of 84.35 square feet. The subject property is located on the west side of Missouri Ave., south of Queen St., and is in the General Commercial zoning district. The variance is requested to permit the existing freestanding sign to remain in a modified form. In particular, the applicant proposes to remove the lI~rushless Car Washll panel at the top of the sign, and the reader board located below.

Setback Height 124.35 sq. ft./84.35 sq. ft. 7.25 ft. 25 ft./20 ft. 5 ft. 20 ft. Staff Comments/Proposed Conditions: The applicant proposes to remove two panels from this freestanding sign, maintaining the 60 square foot "Pat 'N P.olish Car Wash" sign panel, and the 24.35 square foot Texaco logo sign panel. The applicant states that the business will be hurt if the Texaco logo cannot be maintained. The applicant also offers to forego the placement of any attached signs if the variance request is approved. . It is staff's position that a 20.35 square foot variance is not a minimum variance. This represents a 31.8% departure from the 64 square feet permitted. Further, the City is not prohibiting the display of a Texaco logo. The City is simply limiting the freestanding sign area to 64 square feet, the same limit applicable to other properties in the General Commercial zone. The applicant may utilize any portion of the 64 square feet to advertise Texaco products. The offer to refrain from displaying attached signs is attractive. However, roadside signs have a high impact on the appearance of the neighborhood and the City. In this case, the balance goes to providing a freestanding sign in conformance with the size limitations prescribed in the code. It is perhaps noteworthy that the Sunshine Car Wash located on Court St. one mile away, which also sells gasoline and is also located in the General Commercial zone, has placed signs in conformance with the City's code.

Based upon review and analysis of the information contained in the' application, staff finds that the petitioner's request does not meet the standards. In particular, the following standards do not appear to be fully met: (1 ) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (7) (8) " The variance requested arises from a condition which is unique to the property in question and is neither ordinarily or uniformly applicable to the zoning district nor created by an action or actions of the property owner, predecessor in title, or the applicant. Any mistake made in the execution of a building permit or work performed without the benefit of a permit shall not be considered to be situations which support the granting of a variance. The particular physical surroundings, shape or topographical conditions of. the property involved and the strict application of the provisions of this development code would re~ult in an unnecessary hardship upon the applicant. The variance is the minimum necessary to overcome the unnecessary hardship referred to in,preceding recital "2" for the purpose of making reasonable use of the land. The request for a variance is not based primarily upon the desire of the applicant to secure a greater financial return from the property. . The granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental or injurious to other property or improvements in th!3 neighborhood in which the property is located. The granting of the varian'ce will not impair an adequate supply of light or ventilation to adjacent property, detract from the appearance of the community, substantially increase the congestion in the public streets, increase the danger of fire, endanger the public safety in any way, or substantially diminish or impair the value of surrounding property. The variance desired will n'ot adversely affect the public health, safety, order convenience, or general welfare of the community. The granting of the variance desired will not violate the general spirit and intent of this development code. t'r::: , ' Relevant Previous Decisions by the Commission:. .

(SV 93-103) RECOMMENDATION/MOTION: , Approve an area variance for attached signage of 19.5 square feet from the permitted 22.5 square feet to allow 'the existing 42 square feet of attached signage to remain on property identified as Sec. 31-28-16, M & B 14.06, for meeting Sec. 45.24 Standards for Approval, items (1 )-(8). [] and that the appropriate officials be authorized to execute some. , BACKGROUND: The applicant is requesting an area variance for attached signage of 19.5 square feet from the permitted 22.5 square feet to allow the existing 42 square feet of attached signage to remain. The subject property is located on the west side of U.S, 19, south of Enterprise Rd" and is in the Highway Commercial zoning district, Pertinent summary information is listed in the table below.

The business is only 15 feet wide. Applying the formula of 1.5 square feet of attached signage allowed per linear foot of width, only 22.5 square feet of attached signage is allowed for this business. While the variance request at first blush appears large (the variance represents an 87% departure from the code), the 42 square foot sign is relatively small for a business oriented to U.S. 19. The applicant points out that the sign does not substantially decrease the appearance of the City. Staff agrees. I I Direction, ~ North Retail South Retail East Retail West Retail Existing Land Uses j I , , SURROUNDING LAND USES The existence of this 42 square foot attached sign is in keeping with the character of signs for businesses on U.S. 19 and does not divert attention from other uses that front on this highway. The granting of this variance will not detract from businesses that have conforming signs and will not negatively affect the appearance of the community. Applicable Variance Standards: To be eligible for a variance, a request must meet all eight standards for variance approval. Based upon review and analysis of the information contained in the application, staff finds that the petitioner's request meets all of the standards. In particular, the following standards do appear to be fully met: (1) The variance requested arises from a condition which is unique to the property in question and is neither ordinarily or uniformly applicable to the zoning district nor created by an action or actions of the property owner, predecessor in title, or the applicant. Any mistake made in the execution of a building permit or work performed without the benefit of a permit shall not be considered to be situations which support the granting of a variance. (2) The particular physical surroundings, shape or topogmphicat conditions of the property involved and the strict application of the provisions of this development code would result in an unnecessary hardship upon the applicant. (3) The variance is the minimum necessary to overcomo the unnecessary hardship referred 'to in preceding recital ",2" for the purpose of making roasonable use of tho land. (4) ,Tho request for a variance is not based primarily upon the desiro of tho applicant to secure a groator financial return from the proporty. :., ", SV 93-103 pa'ge 3 (5), The granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental or injurious to other property or Improvements in the neigtlborhood in which the property is located.. . (6) ,The granting of the variance will not impair an adequate supply of light or ventilation to adjacent property, detract from the appearance of the community, substantially increase the congestion in the public streets, increase the danger of fire, endanger the public safety in any way, or substantially diminish or impair the value of surrounding property. (7) The variance desired will 'not adversely affect the public health, safety, order convenience, or general welfare of the 'community. (8) The granting of the variance desired will not violate the general spirit and intent .of this development code. . - .

Applicant/Reprosentative). (SV 93-108) RECOMMENDA TIONJMOTION: Approve a setback variance of 2.25 feet from the permitted five feet to allow a setback of 2.75 feet from the N. Ft Harrison Ave. right of way on property identified as Lots 3, 4 and 5, Block 4, North Shore Park, for meeting Sec. 45.24 Standards for Approval, items (1 )-(8), subject to the condition that the sign be made to conform to the area and height requirements of the code within 60 days of this public hearing. Deny the following variances: (1) an area variance of 21 square feet from the permitted 50 square feet to allc:>w a freestanding sign with an area of 71 square feet, and (2) a height variance of five feet from the permitted 20 feet to allow a sign height of 25 feet, on property identified as Lots 3, 4 and 5, Block 4, North ShoTe Park, for failure to meet Sec. 45.24 Standards for Approval, items (1 ).(8). o and.that tha oppropriate officials be authorized to execute SDme. BACKGROUND: The applicant is requesting the following variances to allow the existing nonconforming freestanding sign to remain: (1) an area variance of 21 square feet from the permitted 50 square feet to allow a freestanding sign with an area of 71 square feet, (2) a height variance of five feet from the permitted 20 feet to allow a sign height of 25 feet, and (3) a setback variance of 2.25 feet from the permitted five feet to allow a setback of 2.75 feet from the N. Ft Harrison Ave. right of way. The subject property is located on the northwest corner of N. Ft. Harrison Ave. and Pleasant St., and is ,in the Resort Commercial "Twenty-four" zoning district.

Setback Height 71 sq. ft. 2.75 ft. 25 ft. Staff Comments/Proposed Conditions: The applicant states that the variances are necessary because the building located on the property to the sOLlth (on the southwest corner of N. Ft. Harrison Ave. and Pleasant St.) obstructs the sign from the view of northbound traffic on N. Ft. Harrison Ave. Staff has reviewed this and concludes that the curvature in N. Ft. Harrison and the lack of a setback for the building to the south combine to obstruct the view of the freestanding sign on subject property. The sign first comes into the view of northbound motorists approximately 150 feet south of the subject property. It is important to note, however, that the lack' of visibility of this sign is due to the positioning of: (a) the building to the south, (b) the road, and (c) the sign - it is not due to the area or height of the sign. In light of the preceding, it is reasonable to grant the requested setback variance. However, staff can find no unique conditions that warrant granting the requosted area and height variances. A sign 20 feet high, with an area of 50 square feet, will adequately serve to identify this property, as it serves to identify other properties in this zone. " SURROUNDING LAND USES Direction II Existing Land Uses North South East West Dentist's officer motel Office building, doctor's office Residential Residential The existence of this 25 foot high, 71 square foot sign is not in character with the signage permitted for the surrounding commercial areas and diverts attention from those land uses. The granting of this variance will detract from businesses that have conforming signage and negatively affect the appearance of the community. Applicable Variance Standards: To be eligible for a variance, a request must meet all eight standards for variance approval. Based upon review and analysis of the information contained in the application, staff finds that the petitioner's request for a setback variance meets all of the standards. Further, the request for area and heigl-It variances do not meet the standards, In particular, the following standards do not appear to be fully met: . . . .' . t" . + - 4 . I . ;, ' . , ' (7) J/ " , SV 93-'08 , Page 3 (1 ) The variance requested arises from a condition which Is unique to the property In question and is neither,ordlnarily or uniformly applicable to the 20nlng district nor created by an action or actions of the property owner, predecessor in title, or the applicant. Any mistake made in the execution of a building permit or work performed without the benefit of a permit shall not be considered to be situations which support the granting of a variance. (2) The particular physical surroundings, shape or topographical conditions of the property involved and the strict application of the provisions of this development code would result in an unnecessary hardship upon the applicant. ' The variance is the minimum necessary to overcome the ,unnecessary hardship referred to in preceding recital "2" for the purpose of making reasonable use of the land. , The request for a variance is not based primarily upon the desire of the, applicant to ' secure a greater financial return from the property. The granting of the variance wH1 not be materially detrimental or injurious to other property or improvements in the neighborhood in which the property is located. The granting of the variance will not impair an adequate supply of light or ventilation to , adjacent property, detract from the appearance of the community, substantially increase the congestion in the public streets, increase the danger of fire, endanger the public safety in any way, or substantially diminish or impair the value of surrounding property. The variance desired will not adve'rsely affect the public health, safety, order convenience, or general welfare' of the community. ' The granting of the variance desired will not violate the general-spirit and intent of this , development code.

(SV 93-110) RECOMMENDA TION/MOTI ON: Approve the following variances to allow the existing nonconforming freestanding sign to remain: (1) an area variance of seven square feet from the permitted 50 square feet to allow a freestanding sign with an area of 57 square feet, and (2) a setback variance of 4.3 feet from the required five feet to allow a freestanding sign .7 foot from the Edgewater Dr. right of way, on property identified as Lots 39, 40 and 411 Sunnydale Sub., for meeting Sec. 45.24 Standards for Approval, items (1 )-(8), subject to the condition that the changeable message panel be removed within 60 days' of this public hearing. o and that the approprlatc officials be authorized to execute some. BACKGROUND: The applicant is requesting the following variances to allow the existing nonconforming freestanding sign to remain: (1) an area variance of seven square feet from the permitted 50 square feet to allow a freestanding sign with an area of 57 square feet, and (2) a setback variance of 4.3 feet from the' required five feet to allow a freestanding sign. 7 foot from the Edgewater Dr. right of way. The subject property is located on the northeast corner of Edgewater Dr. and Sunnydale Dr. and is in the Resort Commercial "Twenty-four" zoning district, Pertinent summary information is listed in the following table.

Permitted Type of sign Location/orientation of sign Area Setbacl( Height Yes Yes 50 sq. ft. 5 ft. 20 ft. Staff Comments/Proposed Conditions: The applicant proposes to reduce the area of the existing sign from 75 square feet to 57 square feet by removing the existing changeable message panel. Following removal of the panel I the sign will measure 57 square feet, or seven square feet larger than the maximum allowed in this zone. Any additional alteration will require the removal of the "Shoreline View Moteltl panel. ' Staff considers these variances to be minimal. The requested area variance represents a 14% departure from the code. The seven square foot overage wifllikely be indiscernible to most observers. With regard to the setback, the cost to move this sign back would be great in comparison to the public benefit derived from such an action. SUR~OUNDJNG LAND USES Direction 1 Existing Land Uses North South East West Residential Motel Residential Open space, Clearwater Bay The existence of an 18.5 foot high, 57 square foot sign is in keeping with the character of signage permitted for the commercial area located to the south and will not divert attention from those land uses. The granting of these variances will not detract from businesses that have conforming signs and will not adversely affect the appearance' of the neighborhood or the community . Applicable Variance Standards: To be eligible for a variance, a request must meet all eight standards for variance approval. Based upon review and analysis of the information contained in the application, staff finds that the petitioner's request meats all of'the standards. In particular, tho following standards do , appear to be fully met: (1) Tho variance roquested arises from a condition which Is unique to the property in question and is neither ordinarily or uniformly applicable to tho zoning district nor created ( " (2) " (3) (4) . (5) . (6) (7),' (8) . , .. , , ' I , , . " SV 93-110 Page 3 by an action or actions of the property owner, predecessor in title, or the applicant. Any mistake made in the execution of a building permit or work performed without the benefit of a permit shall not be considered to be situations which support the granting of ' a variance. The particular physical surroundings, shape or topographical conditions of the property involved and the strict application of the provisions of this development code would result in a!1 unnecessary hardship upon the applicant. The variance is the minimum' necessary to overcome the unnecessary hardship referred to in preceding recital tl2t1 for the purpose of making reasonable use of the land. The request for a variance is not based primarily upon the desire of the 'applicant to secure a greater financial return from the property. , The granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental or injurious to other property or improvements in the neighborh~od in which the property Is located. The granting of the' variance will not impair an adequate supply of tight or ventilation to adjacent property, detract from the appearance of the comm~nity, substantially increase the congestion in the public streets, increase the danger of fire, endanger the public safety in any way, or substantially diminish or impair the value of surrounding property. The variance desired will not adversely affect the public health, safety, order convenience,' or general welfare of the community. , The granting of the variance desired will not violate the general spirit and intent of this development code. , , , . , , . 10 '. .... . ... ; SV 93-110 Page 4 Relevant Previous Decisions by the Commission: FREESTANDING SIGN AREA CASE # ADDRESS NAME VARIANCES' .
