HomeMy WebLinkAboutPacket for HO 04-24-13Franciscan Health Forte Traffic Directional
Sign Solutions, Inc. is seeping a Variance for the property of Franciscan
Orthopedic Center of Excellence, located at 10777 Illinois St.
Carmel IN 46032.
We would like to replace two Directional signs with larger ones as well
as add a 30" x 30" Deliveries Only Sign that patients are mistaking for a
patient entrance.
JISItaternent of Variance Request
We would like to replace two Directional signs with larger ones as well
as add a 30" x 30" Deliver Only Sign that patients are mistaking for a
patient entrance. The existing signs are too small to be effective. The
larger signs make it easier for patients to see and will help effectively
direct traffic on hospital grounds.
'D, ratement of Support
Carmel allows only 3 sq. ft. and a maximum height of 3' for directional
signs. In our case, we installed signs that comply and they are
simply too small to be effective. We're also requesting a slightly larger
"Deliveries Only" sign to keep Patient traffic from entering a small
auxiliary road, where delivery vehicles are entering and exiting. Because
this sign needs to be seen from Illinois St. by delivery vehicles, we
believe a larger sign than is normally allowed is necessary to be
effective.

FINDINGS OF FACT S JEE_T - DEVELOPMIEN T STANDARDS VAPl]A_ HCE
CARMEL ADVISORY BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS
(Petitioner to fill out 9-3 -, first two ,blanks)
Docket No.:-
�s t
Petitioner:`5lu A A V? % Aj �3
The approval of this variance will not be injurious to the public health, safety, morals and general welfare of the
community because:
With the exceptions of -the "Deliveries Only" sign, none of the signs requested will be visible to
anyone not already on the hospitals property. The "Deliveries Only„ Sign is a common traffic type sign
that will simply keep patients from entering -the hospital back entrance, which is intended for
deliveries only
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:
All signs requested have been designed in cooperation with the city"s planning staff and with the
exception of the "Deliveries Only" sign will not be visible to the general public.
3. The strict application of the terms of the Unified Development to the property will result in practical difficulties in the
use of the property because:
Patients are often delayed in obtaining hospital services due to using the wrong entrance to the
property or going to the wrong entrance. Additional signage is necessary to effectively direct patients
to the appropriate entrances.
DECISION
IT IS THEREFORE the decision of the Carmel Board of Zoning Appeals that Development Standards Variance Docked No.
is granted, subject to any conditions stated in the minutes of this Board, which are
incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof.
Adopted this day of 20
HEARING OFFICER, Carmel Board of Zoning Appeals
SECRETARY, Carmel Board of Zoning Appeals
Conditions of approval of the Board, if any, are listed on the Letter of Grant.
