?.- - BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS MARCH 7, 1990 pacE 2 3. Sparky Plaza, 26800 to 26900 Brookpark Road Ext. Request for variance (1123.12). Request variance for location of ground sign (5 foot, 6 inch encroachment into setback). Violation of Ord. 87-93, Section 1163.06-(f)2. Chairman Bugala called all interested parties before the Board. The oath was administered to David and Tony DiBenedetto who advised that this sign is smaller than permitted by code and that the location had been shown on the site plan when they received their approvals from the various Boards. They were told that the location was wrong after the sign was installed. rTr. Bugala believed that the contractor does have a responsibility to know what the set- backs are; and nointed out their other sign needed a variance after it was installed. Building Commissioner Conway advised that when a sign is presented to the Boards any approvals are conaeptual. Mr. Restifo pointed out that there did not seem to be a safety problem with the location. Pir. Grace stated that if the sign were moved to conform they would have to put it in a parking space. Mr. Bugala conceded that the street is angled in such a way that sight is not impeded, but he still has a problem with contractors who do not know the codes. T. Restifo moved to grant the request of Sparky Plaza at 26800 to 26900 Brookpark Road Extension for a variance for the location of the ground sign, seconded by B. Grace, and unanimously approved. Variance granted. 4. Doris Dapsis, 5477 Dorothy Dr. Request for variance (1123.12). Request 12 foot rear yard variance for patio enclosure. Violation of Ord. 87-93, Section 1135.08-(a).
