Four Variance Requests were heard by the Board of Zoning Appeals at the April 18th, 2023 meeting. The Board heard two Variance requests seeking to convert an existing billboard located on the Remax Centerstone property to a digital display billboard. This conversion required a Variance of Development Standards to allow for illuminated signage within 600’ of a residential district and a Variance of Use to allow for the billboard which is prohibited by the US Highway 36 Overlay Zoning District. The Board of Zoning Appeals ultimately voted to deny each of these Variance requests. The Board approved two other Variances of Development standards which sought to allow a fence located within a front yard and erase the requirement for an internal pedestrian network to connect to the public sidewalk. These requests are associated with a proposed Ray Skillman Hyundai vehicle storage lot Development Plan which was heard by the Plan Commission at the April Meeting.
