Therefore, the applicant has applied for a si variance to allow all proposed si to occur as drawn. Section 401.15..1 reviews the followin conditions to allow for a si variance: The particular ph surroundin shape, or topo conditions of the specific parcel of land involved exist. The parcel is and will remain an auto dealership. 2. That the condition involved is uni to the particular parcel of land involved. The si re the variance are specific onl to an auto dealer to easil direct customer traffic around the buildin and free up con on site. 3. That the purpose of the variation is not based exclusivel upon a desire to increase the value of income potential of the business involved, 5 The purpose of the signs is to advertise the business, but the majority of the signs are directional to show where cars needing to be serviced can circulate and where delivery traffic should be directed. 4. That. the alleged difficulty or hardship is caused by this ordinance and has not been created by any persons presently having an interest in the parcel. The current use of the parcel will not change; however, with the expansion into a larger facility more directional signs will be need to ensure movement can happen on site without injury to others. 5. That the granting of the variation will not be detrimental to the public welfare ortnj*urious to other land or improvements in the neighborhood. The, signs are for the safe use of the property, since they are attached to a g buildin set back a large distance from residential roads they should in no way be detrimental to the surrounding areas. 6. That the proposed variation will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property, or substantially Increase the congestion of the public streets or interfere with the function of the Police and Fire Departments of the City. The signs will be attached flush against the building approximately 20 feet off the ground; therefore, they should not interfere with any ground movement nor impair supply of light or air from other properties.

Three onsite freestanding signs are exempt from review and will be allowed as is. However, the large sign at the northwest corner of the property visible from Hwy 36 shall be removed, along with the checkered banners placed in various locations on site.
