FILE: 644-BA
STAFF REPORT
State Sign Corp. has applied for a variance to the minimum sign
setback from 10' to 6' for the Mike Smith Volkswagen dealership at
1515 IH-10 S.
State Sign has removed the 30' twin pole Nissan pylon sign and would
like to construct a 25' twin pole Volkswagen pylon sign in its place.
The dealership is applying for the variance to utilize the existing base
and location to save the expense of digging and pouring a new base
and so as not to infringe on any parking spots.
The applicant shall have the burden of proof to demonstrate that all
three conditions necessary for approval have been met.
Exhibits are attached.
