REHEARING Applicants must have the ZBA's approval to present the same or a similar request regarding the same property after denial of such request by the ZBA. w When a request is denied, within ten da�rs of the deni ,the applicant may request that the ZBA rehear the request at a future date. To make this request, the applicant must submit to the Administrator new information that was previously not available to the Board. Within the ten days, the Zoning Official will put the request to rehear on the next available ZBA meeting agenda. To decide to rehear a request, the ZBA must determine the information provided by the applicant is new and relevant to their decision point of a hardship(s) as a result of a property's special condition(s). ZBA approval to rehear a request requires a motion to rehear, a second to that motion, and passage by a majority of members present. The determination that information previously not available is relevant to a request's hardship and special condition does not necessarily indicate the eventual approval of a request. If the ZBA approves a request to rehear, the applicant must pay a new fee by an established deadline to be scheduled for a future meeting. IX. APPEAL DECISION If an applicant wished to appeal a ZBA decision, he must file a petition with a court of record within ten (10) days after the decision is filed in the Planning Division Office. Good Evening, Jennifer Prochazka, Staff Planner. SAM: The applicant is requesting a sign variance for the new fht shopping Center that you have probably seen being constructed at the corner of Texas Avenue and George Bush Drive. PIC: The picture on the screen was taken from across Texas Avenue. Since the time of the staff report, the applicant has changed the sign proposal. The applicant is now proposing a 35 -foot tall sign located SC feet from the curb. 2'T' In the UDO, the allowable height is determined by measuring the distance from the closest point of the sign to the curb edge and dividing this distance by two. (so as you move the sign closer to the street the allowed height becomes lower, as you move it further from the street, the allowed height becomes higher.) :D This proposal of 35 feet tall atid feet from the curbwil require one of two variances from this Board. With the sign proposed 34 feet from the curb,, a sign may be • feet tall. The applicant wants a 35 -ft. tall sign, so it would need a = % oot variance to the height. 27 ` '' ; The second variance option is to the setback: Z The applicant is requesting a setback of -feet for a 35 -foot tall sign. The sign would have to be set back 70-feel for the proposed height the sign; so it would need a ft setback variance to be located in the proposed location. SITE PLAN: On the screen is a graphic of the proposed location, and where on the site the sign would have to be to be in compliance. Thie-prepsatiof 35 feet tall at feet from the curb, will require one of two variances from this Boar . Either -a height variance of .feet --a . or a sign setback variance of feet. L r ' 22 S - , ? `` As stated in the ordinance, a special condition is a unique circumstance related to the land. The special condition offered by the applicant is that "fast moving traffic needs a larger, taller, and closer sign to be effective. The ordinance also states that the hardship must be a direct result of the special condition and deprives the property owner of reasonable use of his land. For a hardship, The applicant states that other competing businesses in the area are using larger, grandfathered signs. That is all I have, the applicant is here tonight to answer any questions. Do you have any questions of me?
