Board of Adjustment Meeting - November 20, 1995
Case No. 211 - McDonald's/Amoco Menu Board
ANALYSIS
The property is a one acre vacant site which the property owner is
proposing to develop into a combination gas station/convenience
store and restaurant with drive-through window. The
MCDonald's/AmOco facility was approved by the City Commission on
August 15, 1995 for a conditional use and site development plan.
The height variance requested is to allow a standard size
McDonald's menu board to be installed at the site, at a height the
applicant feels is convenient and easy for the customer to read.
The menu board serves to inform customers of menu selection and
price prior to ordering. The City's sign code requires that the top
of the sign, or menu board in this case, not exceed five (5) feet
above ground level at the base of the sign. The applicant requests
the height of the proposed sign to be 6.125 feet tall, or 1.125
feet higher than that allowed under the sign code.
The following language from the sign code pertains to the
applicant's request:
Chapter 21, Article IV, Section 2.D:
2. D. "In addition to other signs in this section, one
(1) on-premises sign, described as follows, shall
be permitted in those commercial districts of the
City where drive-through restaurants are permitted.
Said signs shall be an exterior single-faced menu
sign with illustrated face not to exceed twenty-
five square feet. Such signs will allow for
instructions on use of pick-up window service and
list the menu and price of items to be served, with
the top of the sign not to exceed five (5) feet
above ground level at the base of the sign."
Find attached Exhibit "B" applicant's variance application,
Exhibit "C" - proposed site plan showing location of proposed menu
board, Exhibit liD" - menu board dimensions and Exhibit "E" - a
statement of special conditions for the variance requested, as
prepared by the applicant. The summary of facts are as follows:
1. The land to the east, south and west of the subject
property is zoned Community Commercial C-3.
2. The land to the north across Woodbright Road is developed
as an office building and zoned Office/Professional, C-1.
3. A request for conditional use and site plan approval was
recently approved by the City Commission at its August
15, 1995 meeting.
4. The subject one-acre site and proposed one-story 3,432
square foot com:b1nation gas station/eonven1enoe store and
restaurant is to be located on the southeast corner of
Congress Avenue and Woolbright Road.
5. The applicant requests a variance of 1.125 feet to allow
construction of a menu board at the subject site to a
height of 6.125 feet so that a standard size McDonald's
menu board can be installed on the site.
6. Relief is requested to allow a 6.125 foot high menu
board, measured to the top of the structure, versus a
maximum of five (5) feet as required under the City sign
code.
