ENT Alleray Health Service; 25761 Lorain Road Proposal consists of signage. The following variances are requested: 1. A 2.73 foot variance for a wall sign taller than permitted, code allows 4 feet, applicant shows 6.73 feet, section 1163.28(c). 2. A 5.93 square foot variance for a wall sign larger then allowed, code permits 100 sq ft, applicant shows 105.93 sq ft, section 1163.28(c). 3. An 87.43 sq ft variance for total area of signs on a building, code permits 108 sq ft, applicant shows 195.43sq ft, section 1163.25(b) (see note B). Note: A). There are two addresses assigned to the building, however individual unit frontage is unable to be defined due to the layout/footprint of the building. B). Total square footage of all wall signs includes an existing 8 sq ft canopy sign, an 81.5 sq ft wall sign and the proposed 105.93 sq ft wall sign. Major Harrison with Brilliant Electric Signs and Jeffery Binder were administered the oath. Mr. Harrison said the building has two anchoring businesses both of which are permitted wall signs. The height variance is due to the logo and brand name being stacked and measured as one sign. Individual letters are less thenlft 3in tall. The variance for total square footage on a building is the combination of two existing signs and the applicants sign. The proposed wall sign is setback further on the building then the existing signs. Ms. Rudolph noted that the size of the logo was double the size of the lettering. Mr. Harrison said his clients were looking into acquiring a smaller logo. Mr. McReynolds said due to the layout of the site and being a multi-tenant unit square frontage could not be defined. Dr. Binder said their office has been located at the site for 12 years and their main entrance is located at the rear of the building. New and existing patients have complained the office building is hard to find without a sign. Board members had no objections to the request but encouraged using a smaller logo. Mr. Raig felt the design fit the building. Mr. Lopez moved, seconded by Ms. Bellido, to grant ENT Allergy Health Service of 25716 Lorain Road the following variances: 1.
