Which is in violation of Ord. 90-125 sections (1163.27 (c)) and (1163.24 (c)). Mr. Nagy, the architect came forward to be sworn in and address the request. Mr. Nagy indicated that city codes require limited square footage. Mrs. Diver asked if there was a smaller sign that could be used. Mr. Nagy suggested that the Value City sign would be twice as large as theirs if the letters are sinaller. Ms. Wenger noted that hhgreg would have recognition on future ground signs. Whereas Value City will not, do to the Board of Zoning Appeals stipulation that no other signage could be requested once the large wall sign was granted variances. Mrs. Diver advised that the board was trying to be consistent and would like the hhgreg letters to be no larger than the largest Value City letter used. The board felt that the variances being requested were substantial as the applicant was asking for more than double what they are allowed by code. The board felt that variances were not needed to achieve a reasonable return. Ms. Wenger believed that if the height of the letters used in the hhgreg sign were the same height as the largest letter used in the Value City sign it would be sufficient. The board assured the applicant that they were not opposed to a larger wall sign but the proposed 8- foot lettering was beyond a reasonable request. The applicant was asked to return with a more reasonable size sign. N. Sergi moved to table hhgregg of 4706 Great Northern Blvd. T. Kelly seconded the motion which was unanimously approved.
