Mayor Sanger opened the public hearing and requested proof of publication.
10-27-15 BOA Minutes October 27, 2015 Page 3 of 8
City Manager Owens reported that this is a public hearing and subsequent resolution for a conditional use permit for the proposed replacement of an existing public interest sign at the subject location. The property is at the southeast corner of Forsyth Boulevard and Brentwood Boulevard, and has a zoning designation of High Density Commercial (HDC). An existing 10.6-square-foot, double-sided, time and temperature sign is located on the Brentwood Boulevard building façade that is integrated with a 5.4-square foot, double sided, perpendicular wall sign for Barry-Wehmiller. The signage projects +/- 4 feet beyond the face of the building. The applicant proposes to remove and replace the existing time and temperature sign with a new 6-square-foot, double-sided time and temperature sign. Section 425.150 of the City’s Sign Regulations require a Conditional Use Permit for the installation of a public interest sign, which is defined as a sign containing information of interest to the general public such as weather and time information. Neither the City nor the applicant has a record of an approved CUP for the existing public interest sign. Because this is a modification of an existing sign, a new CUP is required. The proposed sign is smaller than the existing sign and will display the same information. The Plan Commission considered this request at their October 5, 2015 meeting and voted to recommend approval of the Conditional Use Permit to the Board of Aldermen.
