BOARD/COMMISSION REVIEW:
Official notice for the public hearing for PZC 19-1-084 was published in the Daily Herald on August 5, 2019.
BACKGROUND:
The 1 acre subject property is located on the north side of 75th Street, approximately 800' west of Naper Boulevard. The property is zoned B2 PUD (Community Shopping Center District) and is improved with an approximately 5,500 square foot car wash and motor vehicle sales facility. The property was approved as the Stenger Subdivision Planned Unit Development (PUD) in 1985. A car wash is not a permitted use in B2; however, it was permitted through the PUD approval. In 2014, a conditional use to permit motor vehicle sales was also approved for the subject property.
The petitioner, Karen Dodge, represents the contact purchaser of the subject property. The petitioner proposes to remodel the facility and to replace the existing ground sign with a new ground sign in same location. Motor vehicle sales will no longer be conducted on the subject property. Replacement of the sign will require a deviation to reduce the required major arterial sign setback and a major change to the PUD.
DISCUSSION:
Per Section 6-16-5:2.2.5.1 (Signs on Commercial and Institutional Property: Setbacks) of the Municipal Code, a 10' setback is required for ground signs adjacent to an arterial roadway such as 75th Street. The proposed ground sign will be sited in the same location as the existing sign and located at the property line with a 0' setback. The proposed sign meets all other Code requirements including area, height, and setback from the interior property lines.
