BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS AUGUST 3, 1988 PAGE 5 5. Kronheims Furniture Store, 26088 Country Club Blvd: Request for variance (1123.12). Request 73.13 square foot variance for total sign area to place sign on Plaza North Arcade canopy. Violation of Ord. 87-93, Section 1163.06(d). Chairman Remmel called all interested parties before the Board. The oath was was administered to G. Papandreas, Biskind Development Comnany and B. Dumbradski, sign contractor. It was clarified that the sign is to be over the arcade area (where Marshalls' sign is located) facing Brookpark Road, not on the actual building. Mr. Bugala and Mr. Gomersall are concerned that all the tenants in Plaza South Would want signs in that area. Mr. Papandras beleived that this sign would provide exposure for all the tenants in Plaza South, explaining that they have agreements with other tenants as far as what signage is allowed. Mr. Bugala stated that Ma.rshalls put up their sign without a variance, so if Kronheim's reduces their signage on the building, they would not need.a vari- ance for this sign. Mr. Remmel stated that it is necessary that the merchants. in this area have si.gnage, it-is a commerieal.area, and the signs are set-back from the street. T1r. Bugala questioned who authorized all the temporary sign- age that is on the property. Mr. Papandreas stated that if these temporary signs violate any City regulations, they will remove them. Building Commissioner Conway advised that the Marshalls sign was installed prior to his coming to the City, but if they had the square footage available.th.ey would be allowed to install a sign at this location since this is all one parcel of land. He further advised that he will be taking the sign to the Architectural Board.of Review and the Planning Commission. R. Grace moved to grant the request for a 73.13 square foot variance for total sign area to place sign on the North Plaza Arcade canopy, seconded by C. Remmel. Roll call on.motion: Grace, .
