FINDINGS OF FACT - DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS VARIANCE 1. The approval of this variance will not be injurious to the public health, safety, morals and general welfare of the community because: The size and appearance of the additional wall signs are consistent with the general development in the vicinity and is proportional to the site and primary building, providing needed notice and identification. The approval of this request will have little, if any, discernible negative affect on public health, safety, morals and general welfare of the community. In fact, the proposed signs will allow motorists approaching from all directions at the intersection to make an informed and safe decision prior to reaching or passing the entrances to the real estate. 2. The use and value of the area adjacent to the property included in the variance will not be affected in a substantially adverse manner because: The size and appearance of the additional wall sign is consistent with the general development in the vicinity and is proportional to the site and primary building, providing needed notice and identification, in particular motorists approaching from the south will be able to identify the site via the western wall sign as this will be the only sign visible from the northbound Gray Road approach to the site. 3. The strict application of the terms of the Zoning Ordinance to the property will result in practical difficulties in the use of the property because: The strict application of the ordinance will prevent the conveying of necessary and visible information to the public, both motoring and walking/biking, when in the vicinity of the real estate. The proposed signs will assist in providing proper identification along 146th Street and Gray Road which shall assist in efficient and safe wayfinding to the site. DECISION IT IS THEREFORE the decision of the Carmel Board of Zoning Appeals that Development Standards Variance Docket No. 16080004 V is granted, subject to any conditions stated in the minutes of this meeting, which are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof. Adopted this day of September, 2016. _________________________________________ CHAIRPERSON, Carmel Board of Zoning Appeals _________________________________________ SECRETARY, Carmel Board of Zoning Appeals Conditions of the Board are listed on the back.
