III Mr. Adkins showed pictures of the double faced sign for the Ridge-
wood Arms Apartments, showing that it had been erected with one leg of
the sign on the property line. Mr. Adkins asked the board to consider
granting a variance of 9 feet in the front yard setback requirement.
The Building Official explained that this sign had been erected
without a permit from the Building Department. He told the Board that
the sign being right on the property line created a problem with keeping
the ditch clean, as well as not meeting the setback requirement.
After discussion, the consensus was that it would be unwise to set
a precedent by waiving the entire setback requirement. It was suggested
to Mr. Adkins that the sign be changed to a "V" shape which would bring
it in several feet from the property line, or to move the sign, keeping
the same shape.
Mr. Adkins said he would take these suggestions back to the owner,
and the hearing was recessed.
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.
