5. Docket No. 07080022 ADLS Amend: North Meridian Medical Pavilion - Signage
The applicant seeks approval for 6 new signs. The site is located at 12188 A & B N. Meridian S1.
It is zoned B-6. Filed by Doug Staley, Jr. of Staley Signs, Inc.
The applicant seeks committee approval for six new wall signs. Two ofthe signs will be located on
Building A (currently occupied). The other four signs will be located on Building B (under construction).
A variance was previously granted for the sign (allowed by the Sign Ordinance) to face Illinois SI. on
Building A to be relocated to the Meridian St. frontage (Docket No. 04110022). The building owner felt
they did not need signage to face Illinois S1. However, new tenants have occupied the building and are
seeking signage to face Illinois St. as well.
A variance will be required for the number of signs and for two signs to face a public right of way for
both Buildings A & B. This is on file as Docket No. 070800 I I V and will be heard at the September 24lh
meeting of the BZA.
Currently, Urology of Indiana and Midwest Fertility have wall signs facing Meridian St. on Building A. A
third tenant, The Surgery Center of Carmel, is seeking approval to have a sign face Illinois S1. on
Building A.
Signs facing Illinois St. will be allowed 115 sq. f1. of sign area per the Sign Ordinance, and this is being
requested by the applicant. Signs facing Meridian 81. will be allowed 95 sq. ft. per the Variance approval
of 04110022 V, and this is what the applicant is requesting. The signs will be internally illuminated,
individual channel letters with white faces. The logos may not exceed 25% of the total signage area.
Please refer to your packets for more details.
