These sections, pertaining to the size and location of signs state: "4.15 Signs 4.15. 3 .6 Commercial (C-1) and Commercial Office (CO) business signs , free-standing or projecting: Provided: (a) if illuminated, no moving, flashing, blinking, color changing or exposed, bare or uncovered neon illumination or lighting; (b) the aggregate area of such signs shall not exceed fifty (50) square feet ; . . . Business signs, wall : Provided: (a) if illuminated, no moving, flashing, blinking, color changing or exposed, bare or uncovered neon illumination or lighting; (b) the aggregate area of all such signs shall not exceed one hundred (100) square feet ; . . . 21 .7 Minimum yard requirements 1 21 . 7. 1 Adjacent to public streets: No portion of any structure except signs advertising sale or rental of the property shall be erected closer than thirty (30) feet to any public street right-of-way . . . . " The applicant proposes to replace the existing signs on the property due to a business name change . This office does not have any records which indicate the amount of signage presently existing on the property. The specific variances the applicant is requesting are: 1) to increase the allowable area of a free-standing business sign from fifty (50) square feet to seventy- two (72) square feet , 2) to increase the allowable area of wall signs from one hundred (100) square feet to two hundred sixty-one (261) square feet , and 3) to reduce the required setback for a free-standing business sign from thirty (30) feet to one (1) foot . After reviewing the applicant ' s plans , the staff is of the opinion that the signage could be reduced and not adversely effect the identification of the business. Specifically, the free-standing sign could be reduced by sixteen (16) square feet by removing the changeable letter part of the sign. Also, the applicant indicates that wall signs will be mounted on the north, south and west STAFF REPORT - VA-87-52 exposures of the building. The sign on the west exposure appears to be unnecessary when one considers that the west side of the property will be the location of the free-standing business sign . The wall signage can also be reduced by eliminating the logo design from the sign and utilizing the business name (F & M Bank) only . The plans indicate that the area of the wall signs containing the business name only is approximately fifty-one (51) square feet . If the applicant were limited to two (2) of these wall signs, the aggregate wall sign area would be approximately one hundred two (102) square feet , creating a need for a variance of only two (2) square feet . RECOMMENDATION The application as presented should be denied for cause: 1) The applicant has not demonstrated that the perceived hardship is unique to his property in contradistinction to other properties in the same zoning district and general vicinity. The same requirements are shared uniformly by all properties. 2) The applicant has not provided sufficient evidence to show that a strict application of the Zoning Ordinance would produce a clearly demonstrable hardship approaching confiscation as distinguished from a special privilege or convenience. The requirements the applicant seeks relief from is shared by all properties zoned CO (Commercial Office) . 3) The applicant has not provided evidence that the authorization of the variance will not be of sub- stantial detriment to the adjacent properties or that the character of the district will not be altered. f r '> s ALBEMARLE COW Y .r ®r 45 201r-1204 IA .11P _ IJ/II/// J 4Fir / \�....\ \\ 125A • / / __61-X \,, 6 ' / B SEA' VA-87-52 Albemarle Bank & Trust ��� 6 \ 1 / --_ Tax Map 61 , Parcel 134 ����'� 3 2�� /6ECT108 \- pA -.- __ \ \\•. \ O� y...../ 6Iw2' sq', / - �;SEC nnn \� 5 4J� 22 2' '1 I9 ���/ — .I� %/�EC61M (//". y°�J1� „P ‘'\ `\�\� \\ \ AdlQ�`„...V., �'`y/ / //BERNELEY . �PP ti \\' \ \ ' 27: /////////////�/(/ �/COMMUNITY/ 131 10111:‘. /128_ ^ \ s.,\, SECTIO/ /� 9E \ - -\ •\,\\`6\ 9/a6 28 6Iw2 /% ,�J/ 1 —� - SE!TI7h 62A\\\\ NN�� • N RTHFIELDS \ a �� ,/, 129E \\ /.r`Atli* • i tn ,,, kifr / //Ali � / 1290 \ 0 Y/ 'Mfg 4/ a . € SECTION 61WI : \\��/ -- - _1290 * \\ I\\' \ � ,, _39 Sec 61W i� FE,.SEC 6\ AA \ `� 4 ; � � ♦— - - _ —_ .\\\ fir � 651 60 \� �\ �' \\\ _-�r SECTION 61Z ---._ —- -- \ ` : 42 AI > I / 2 SEC 6cwl \ _�, `�� \� - ��.�\\�— > — / 161 62 i 120 C, c�1.`` � \ \\��~y� _ ��'` 1/ / N � `\\ .
