Box 9960 College Station, Texas 77842 Phone 979.764.3570 / Fax 979.764.3496 January 20, 2012 Sign Pros 1518 Ambush Creek San Antonio, Texas 78245 via Certified Mail #7009 3410 0002 3100 3195 Re: Sign Permit Application (No. 11-4287) at 1915 Texas Avenue College Station, TX To whom it may concern, On December 20, 2011, 1 informed a representative of Sign Pros that the subject sign permit for Twin Liquors was denied. The Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) Section 7.4.1.2., Attached Signs, allows for commercial buildings or tenant lease space to have attached signage that does not exceed a total of 2.5 square feet per linear foot of all public entry fapade, Twin Liquors' public entry facade is 707', allowing the tenant a total of 176.5 square feet of signage. A sign permit (No. 11-3980) was approved on November 22, 2011 for a 176 square foot sign, attached above the main entry of Twin Liquors' lease space. The subject permit (No. 11-4287) was submitted on December 19, 2011 for a 40.63 square foot sign, located on a building on the same property as Twin Liquors' lease space but not on the same building. The subject sign (No. 11-4287) was installed without the required permits. It was denied due to it exceeding the maximum allowed area of signage for Twin Liquors and it is not attached to the building in which the lease space is located. Section 7.4.1.3 allows for the property owner to divide the building signage of the tenants located in the building; it does not allow for signage of all buildings to be divided up between all tenants on the property. A variance request to the sign ordinance can be made to the Zoning Board of Adjustments (ZBA) for sign permit No. 11-4287. The Board requires that there be an unnecessary hardship and special condition to the land to justify such variance. Mere inconvenience or financial disadvantage will not be considered. If this office has not received a complete ZBA variance application by 5:00 PM on February 13, 2012 or notice that the sign has been removed, we will be forced to turn this matter over to the Code Enforcement Division. For your convenience, attached you will find a copy of the ZBA variance application. A complete copy of the Unified Development Ordinance can be found online at http;Hwww.cstx.gov/UDO. If you any questions regarding the matter, please contact me. Sincerely, P6 Planning Technician Planning & Development Services ipaz@cstx.aov 979-764-3570 e Complete items 1, 4 and 3.
