Findings of Fact Sheet | PZ-2023-00196V 27616127.1 Project Description Lake City Bank Remodel 1361 S. Rangeline Road The project consists of the adaptive re-use of the former Day Furs retail store into a new location for Lake City Bank. The interior of the building will be completely renovated for the new use. The exterior of the building will be modified to be more consistent with other Lake City Bank locations and to provide for ATM and drive-thru functions. The site will be modified to provide vehicular access to the ATM/drive-through, reconfigured parking, improved pedestrian access, bike racks, and additional landscaping. The reconfigured parking triggers a variance. The exterior of the building will have new brick in place of much of the existing siding. Other existing siding areas will be replaced with EIFS (Exterior Insulation Finish System/synthetic stucco). Existing windows will be modified, and more windows will be added. New exterior building mounted lighting will be provided. New signage for Lake City Bank will be provided on the building and on a proposed monument sign. The west façade wall sign and monument sign fronting on Rangeline Road trigger one variance, and the setback of the monument sign triggers another variance. 26957514.1 Statement of Variances Lake City Bank Remodel 1361 S. Rangeline Road As part of the remodel/redevelopment of 1361 South Rangeline Road, the Applicant is seeking three (3) standards variances. The first variance, docketed as PZ-2023-00194V, is a request to allow for two (2) signs fronting/facing west with one (1) being a wall sign on the west wall gable, and the other being a monument sign fronting on Rangeline Road. The Carmel UDO only allows one (1) sign facing/fronting west. The second variance, docketed as PZ-2023-00195V, is a request to allow the monument sign encroach into the Rangeline Road right-of-way by two feet (2’). The Carmel UDO requires a five foot (5’) setback. The third variance, docketed as PZ-2023-00196V, is a request to allow for fourteen (14) on-site parking spaces following the redevelopment. The Carmel UDO requires twenty (20) on-site parking spaces. 27624876.1 Statements of Support Lake City Bank Remodel 1361 S. Rangeline Road Applicant sets forth the following statements in support of the variances it is seeking in conjunction with the remodel/redevelopment of the Day Furs building/site for into a Lake City Bank office/branch. 1. Two (2) Signs Facing/Fronting on Rangeline Road | PZ-2023-00194V The site has only one curb cut and in order to properly identify the site for expected customers/visitors, it is important to have both the monument sign and the wall sign. The wall sign can be seen by vehicular traffic on Rangeline Road from a certain distance, while the wall sign properly identifies the building, once the customer/visitor is closer. 2. Monument Sign Not Meeting Setback | PZ-2023-00195V The monument sign was placed in the landscaped area adjacent to improved Rangeline Road in order to have the sign properly identify the site to traffic on Rangeline Road, and to avoid any conflicts with traffic using the wrap around driveway. The sign does not interfere with the existing asphalt path nor does it interfere with an y vision clearance requirement. 3. Parking Space Reduction | PZ-2023-00196V The site currently has sixteen (16) parking spaces wrapping the building. The renovation/redevelopment adds a drive-up teller/ATM on the north side, eliminating five (5) existing spaces; however, the outdoor trash dumpster is being eliminated, resulting in a gain of three (3) spaces. The Lake City Bank office/branch is more of an office function versus a traditional retail branch, with fewer tellers and more office space for meetings/employee training, thus reducing daily parking demand. 27624916.1 PAGE 11 EXISTING EXTERIOR CONDITIONS - 06/14/2023 TM CROWLEY LAKE CITY BANK 08/18/2023 LEVEL 1 0" T/O STEEL 9' -8 1/2" TRUSS BEARING HEIGHT 21' -0 5/8" B/O DORMERS 14' -0"LEVEL 2 11' -6 1/2" T/O ROOF 36' -6" LEVEL 1 0" T/O STEEL 9' -8 1/2" TRUSS BEARING HEIGHT 21' -0 5/8" B/O DORMERS 14' -0"LEVEL 2 11' -6 1/2" EXISTING WINDOWS TO BE REPLACED EXISTING GAS METER T/O ROOF 36' -6" EXISTING ENTRY TO BE REPLACED PORTION OF ROOF CANOPY TO BE REMOVED LEVEL 1 0" T/O STEEL 9' -8 1/2" TRUSS BEARING HEIGHT 21' -0 5/8" B/O DORMERS 14' -0"LEVEL 2 11' -6 1/2" PORTION OF ROOF CANOPY AND COLUMN/ STONE BASE TO BE REMOVED AND INFILLED T/O ROOF 36' -6" LEVEL 1 0" TRUSS BEARING HEIGHT 21' -0 5/8" B/O DORMERS 14' -0"LEVEL 2 11' -6 1/2" T/O ROOF 36' -6" EXISTING EXTERIOR ELEVATIONS - 08/16/2023 TM CROWLEY LAKE CITY BANK 1/16" = 1'-0"1 EXISTING NORTH ELEVATION 1/16" = 1'-0"2 EXISTING SOUTH ELEVATION 1/16" = 1'-0"3 EXISTING EAST ELEVATION 1/16" = 1'-0"4 EXISTING WEST ELEVATION EXISTING HALF ROUND WINDOW TO BE REMOVED AND INFILLED EXISTING CONDENSERS TO BE RELOCATED EXISTING WINDOWS TO BE REPLACED EXISTING STOREFRONT TO BE REMOVED AND INFILLED PORTION OF ROOF CANOPY AND COLUMN/ STONE BASE SUPPORTS TO BE REMOVED PORTION OF ROOF CANOPY AND COLUMN/ BASE TO BE REMOVED PORTION OF ROOF CANOPY TO BE REMOVED PAGE 12 08/18/2023 PAGE 4 PLOT DATE (36"x24"): 8/18/2023 10:24 AM DRAWING FILE: P:\2023\00846\D.

PZ-2023-00195V (minimum 5 foot ground sign setback from street right-of-way required; 0 feet requested) TM Crowley & Associates, LLC | Lake City Bank Remodel Variances the ground sign will not interfere with any vision clearance requirement, nor will it create a greater distraction when compared to a ground sign meeting the required setback. the reduced setback will not interfere with access or visibility to or from adjacent properties. the 5 foot setback requirement does not account for rights of way which extend further into a developed parcel than the edge of a public walkway.

PZ-2023-00196V (minimum 20 parking spaces required, 14 requested) TM Crowley & Associates, LLC | Lake City Bank Remodel Variances there will be adequate on-site parking for the expected day-to-day operation of the property, which will minimize any chance of traffic backing into the public right-of-way. there is not connected or cross-parking, and very little risk of bank visitors using parking on adjacent lots. the parking ratio requirements do not account for the actual intensity of a particular use, which in this case is significantly less than a typical retail bank branch.
