NATURE OF PROPOSED WORK
SIGNS
HARDSHIP:
CONDITION OF APPROVAL -
1) 1) :No other signage be posted to the light poles, canopy poles or any other structure on site
advertising products or pricing.
FINDINGS:
The Zoning Board granted the special permit for the additional canopy signs based upon the plans submitted with the application. In
making its decision, the ZBA found:
(1) Signs are located only where they are otherwise permitted in the district; and
(2) The Board of Appeals determined that the architecture of the building, the location of the building or the land or nature of the use
being made of the building or land Is such that additional signs or signs of a larger size would not detract from the character of the
neighborhood and should be permitted in the public interest. Additional ground signs shall only be approved if there are exceptional
circumstances to warrant their approval and ff all efforts are undertaken to keep additional ground signs as small and low as possible.
(3) The Board of Appeals specifies in the permit the exact sign permitted, the size and location of the sign or signs, and, If applicable,
Imposes other restrictions. Any change In said signs requires a new or revised special permit unless the special permit specifies what
types of changes are allowed.
