Proposed Certification by Board of Zoning Appeals Secretary Modifying the prior zoning commitment o D o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o EXPLANATION OF REQUEST Velocity Sports Performance ("Velocity Sports") occupies a building that is located west of Rangeline Road and south of Carmel Drive ("Building"). The common address of the property is 1402 Chase Court and the zoning classification for the parcel is M-3 Manufacturing. Velocity Sports offers sports training services and facilities to its clients. To allow this use, Velocity Sports obtained a use variance from the Board of Zoning Appeals CBZA") in 2006. Velocity Sports currently has a wall sign on the northern elevation of the Building. In this regard, it is relevant to note that the Sign Ordinance, for a use allowed by a use variance, only permits either a ground sign or a wall sign. Further, by way of background, in 1997 the prior owner of the property obtained a sign variance from the BZA to permit a wall sign on the northem elevation of the Building. This wall sign required a variance because the sign was placed on an elevation that did not have fi'ontage to an adj acent public right of way. As part of this prior 1997 BZA approval, the prior owner executed a zoning commitment that limited the number of signs for this pm1icular site to only one (1) sign. A copy of this zoning commitment is included behind Tab 6. elat'ian Health Partners ("Clarian") will be sharing space in the Building with Velocity Sports. Clarian plans to operate in the Building its "human motion" services program that is designed for patient rehabilitation. The services offered by Clarian will be complimentary and synergistic to the services otTered by Velocity Sports. In order to indentify Clarian's presence within the Building, they desire to construct a ground sign near the entrance of the site adjacent to Chase Court, as depicted on the site plan that is included behind Tab 3. However, in order to allow the ground sign, Clat'iml is requesting a variance from the Sign Ordinance, as well as a modification of the prior 1997 zoning commitment. Absent a variance and a modification of the prior zoning commitment, Clarian will be unable to provide notice to its patients and customers as to its location and serVIces. Included behind Tab 7 are proposed Findings of Fact and behind Tab 8 is a proposed Certification by the BZA Secretary modifying the prior zoning commitment. We look forward to presenting this matter to the BZA Hearing Officer at the March 24tl1 BZA Hearing Officer meeting. o o H:\Bc-.:h.,"lZl1uill,l;.& R~;d ESt.:.llll MLllla1:i\lrwlll UlliLlll\E.~pliUlaliull.Joc L . ~ ~ ~ ..r:. t o ~ ~ i o o ~ ~ ~ o u Q o u o u a ,/ II I (Yl f tv: If. fit ~C :z '''' (1) 8 (:) II, G -:z.

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: In addition to the rationale set forth in Response No.1 above, the use and value of the area adiacent to the property included in this request will not be affected in a substantially adverse manner because the proposed sign will be compatible to other signage in the area, the proposed sign is intended to provide adequate notice to its patients and customers and the property is located in an area that is surrounded by other business and office uses. 3.
