2021 meeting. The request has been reduced and submitted in a new application. Mr. Beeman <br />said the previous sign proposed was about twice the size as the current one. He thinks the sign is <br />appropriate to the space and compatible with city codes. Mr. Grasso said there is no signage on <br />the east side of the building so this would help to increase visibility for those coming down <br />Sparky Lane. <br />Ms. Lieber recapped the history of the existing sign. She said the new sign as shown is <br />appropriate for the space but it would be her preference that the existing sign be replaced with <br />the same sign which would bring the total area into greater compliance. She appreciated the <br />effort the applicant made to reduce their request. Discussion regarding rehearing and <br />reconsideration in light of requiring a unanimous vote for variance approval. Mr. Grasso said he <br />intends to replace the existing sign at the time he can afford to do so. Mr. Mackey said the <br />additional signage would be beneficial and that it is proportional to the space proposed. Mr. <br />Rahm agreed that the new sign would assist with wayfinding and appreciated the applicant <br />working to reduce the request. Mr. Papotto supported the existing sign being replaced when <br />possible but appreciated this small business trying to ensure customers can find them. <br />Mr. Mackey moved, seconded by Mr. Rahm, to approve the following variance for 21- <br />19367; Recess; 26636 Brookpark Extension: <br />1. A 55 sq. ft. variance for excessive sign area per building unit; code permits 55 square <br />feet based upon facade width, applicant shows 155 sq. ft. (100 sq. ft. existing + 55 sq. ft. <br />proposed), Table 1163.12-1. <br />Motion passed 3-0. <br />COMMUNICATIONS <br />Ms. Lieber reminded the Board the next meeting will be Wednesday, July 7.
