Davis (Automotive Dealership) TAX MAP/PARCEL: 61W/02-A2 ACREAGE: 3 acres ZONING: C-1 LOCATION: Route 29 North VARIANCE REQUEST The applicant requests a variance from Section 4. 15.3.6 of the Albemarle County Zoning Ordinance to allow an additional wall sign of 54 square feet to be added to the existing signage making a total area of 204 square feet , a variance of 104 square feet . AREA CHARACTERISTICS The applicant ' s property is located on Route 29 North between Midas Muffler and Caravan restaurant. This area is commercial in character. STAFF COMMENTS The applicant is the Subaru dealership at R.M. Davis auto dealer- ship. The existing wall face sign is nonconforming. The applicant proposes to place the Subaru sign above the existing wall face sign (see sketch) . A freestanding Subaru sign exists along the Route 29 frontage. The applicant proposes to remove that sign if the additional wall face signage is approved. The applicant ' s freestanding signage is rendered ineffective due to the Caravan sign and the general confusion in this area due to the clutter of so much freestanding signage. The applicant 's pro- posal would make an undesirable nonconforming situation better with the removal of the freestanding signs. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Although staff is of the opinion that the applicant ' s proposal provides for a better signage scheme, we are unable to find a clear hardship in this case. Therefore, the staff has no other choice but to recommend denial of the requested variance. Should the Board decide to approve this request, staff recommends that approval be conditioned upon removal of the freestanding Subaru signage. w.r% l o- I $- 4 C,aJ k CD C-- �"> � rn .
