After several years of struggling with revolving tenants we now have a very good tenant base. Video Merchant, who has been in the lower mall ten years, just moved in; Globe Travel was downtown for years; Pay Sery has been with us for nearly four years and Total Pool and Cool Balloons about two years each. We're applying for a variance for several reasons, the first of which is the cost which would be $1,500.00 - $2,000.00 (an itemized list can be provided) which for a building that has no cash flow would provide a financial hardship. Secondly, we have a somewhat unique situation in that there are actually seven businesses currently operating at this address. Next would be the fact there are four buildings but only the front one is allowed in the calculation for the signage percentage. The last reason, and probably the most logical one for granting the variance without a public hearing (additional expense) is that in two separate conversations with Mick Kaehler, he's told me that the two lower signs on the bottom of the pylon (which are the one that go over the allowable) may be moved to the roof overhang on the building and we'd be in compliance. So in an effort to save a considerable amount of time and expense we're asking that the variance be approved. The variance should allow to keep the existing sign, change names as necessary and contain language pro- hibiting any signage on the face of the building. Thanks for your consideration.
