Hovde, Staff Planner SUBJECT: 1300 HARVEY MITCHELL PKWY (ZBA) —Variance Request Staff reviewed the above-mentioned variance application as requested. Your project has been scheduled for the next available Zoning Board of Adjustment (ZBA) meeting on Tuesday, July 1, 2008, 6:00 p.m. in the City Hall Council Chambers, 1101 Texas Avenue. Staff has determined that the variance request should refer to the existing signage as a development sign. This type of signage is permitted by the City of College Station, and therefore, the variance request would be for the size of the sign only. According to the Section 7.4.F of the Unified Development Ordinances, a development sign along a freeway may be a maximum of 200 square feet, a maximum of 15 feet in height, and setback 10 feet from the right-of-way. Please submit a completely revised variance application to reflect this determination. As discussed during the phone conversation on June 4, 2008, staff is waiting to receive the following: * A letter to ZBA detailing the intended use and design of the subject sign; * Revised application with the property owner's signature, zoning information, and "sign variance" selected as the action requested. Additional graphics are requested to support the letter to ZBA detailing the intended use and design of the subject design. The agenda and staff report for your project can be accessed at the following web site on Friday the week before the ZBA meeting.

Hovde City of College Station 1101 Texas Avenue College Station, Texas 77842 RE: 1300 Harvey Mitchell Parkway (ZBA) Variance Request Dear Lauren A. Hovde: We are in receipt of the memorandum dated June 4, 2008. We plan on moving into the 2818 Place clubhouse on or about July 15, 2008. In the meantime, in order for our sign to be in compliance with The City of College Station, we have requested a temporary sign variance. It is my understanding the verbiage on the wrap is larger than allowable. We are willing to re-design the existing verbiage to be in compliance. The new ad copy has been requested from Fast Signs. If at all possible, we would also like for you to consider allowing us a temporary sign variance allowing us to keep the existing leasing trailer wrap in place. Our ZBA meeting is scheduled for July 1 at 6:00 p.m. The temporary sign variance would only be for approximately 14 days. Once we move into the clubhouse, we plan on moving the leasing trailer next door to Phase 2. We will submit for the appropriate permits in advance and re- design the leasing trailer wrap. If this is not an option, we will simply discard the advertising wrap. We will forward the revised application with property owner signature this week. Feel free to contact me with any further questions at 972-868-9186. Sincerely, c(1(210/bg nne WYanaer ite Regional 9 972-868-9186 / 00 tit www.PlacePrope le .corn Page 1 of 1 I'm interested in filing a variance or exception. How do I go about doing that?We plan on moving into our clubhouse in June and won't need the sign after that. Furthermore, I spoke with Julie Caler yesterday and she has granted us 14 days to resolve the issue before a warning is given. Any help would be appreciated, Anne Anne White Regional Manager Place Properties 5215 O'Connor Boulevard, Suite 200 Irving, Texas 75039 P: 972-868-9186 F: 404-495-7805 The information transmitted is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential, proprietary, and/or privileged material.
