PURPOSE: The purpose of this agenda item is to consider a request by Thomas Binford for a variance from Section 20-486 of the City Code of Ordinances to allow his existing non- conforming pole sign to remain in the front of his business at 426 East SR 434 beyond the November 14, 2002, amortization deadline, Mr, Binford believes that the cost of removing and rebuilding the sign constitutes a hardship, APPLICABLE CODE: Sec. 20-82.

It also set forth standards for signage and provided a 5-year maximum amortization period for signs that were not in compliance with the new standards, On June 12,2000, the City Commission adopted Ordinance No, 2000-17, which provided that any sign, other than a billboard, could be amortized and maintained until November 14, 2002, At or prior to November 14,2002, all nonconforming signs must be removed and may be replaced with signs that conform to the design standards set forth in the S.R. 434 Redevelopment regulations. All directly affected property owners were notified at or about the time Ordinance No. 2000-17 was adopted. As a reminder of the up-coming deadline, on July 26,2002, Community Development Director Charles Carrington sent each property owner with a sign in either of the SR 434 districts, The subject site has C-1 Zoning, a Commercial Future Land Use designation, and is located within the SR 434 Redevelopment Overlay Zoning District. Mr. Binford operates a business at the site. The Board of Adjustment did not find that the request met any of the variance criteria and voted to recommend that the variance request be denied. FINDINGS: 1 ),The subject site, 426 East SR 434, is located within the C-1 zoning district, the Commercial Future Land Use designation, and the SR 434 Redevelopment Overlay Zoning District. 2),The SR 434 Redevelopment Overlay Zoning District sign standards have been in effect since November 10, 1997, with the adoption of Ordinance No, 683. 3). On June 12,2000, Ordinance No, 2000-17 amended the amortization deadline set forth in Ordinance No. 683 and set forth a November 14,2002, deadline for existing non-conforming signs to be removed and replaced with signs that conform to Code, November 11, 2002 Regular Item C Page 5 4).On or about September 18, 2002, the variance application was received by the City, 5),The Board of Adjustment was required by Code to find that the variance request meets all six variance criteria, set forth in Subsection 20-82 (1) ( c), in order to recommend approval. 6), Staff does not find that the variance meets the six criteria for a variance: 1. there are no conditions or circumstances peculiar to the land, structure, or buildings which are not applicable to other lands, structures, or buildings in the same SR 434 Redevelopment Overlay Zoning district; 2. special conditions and circumstances, if they exist, are the result of the applicant; 3. granting the variance requested would convey on the applicant special privileges that is denied by this chapter to other lands, buildings or structures in the same overlay zoning district; 4. a literal interpretation of the provisions of this chapter would not deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same overlay zoning district under the terms of this chapter and would not work an unnecessary hardship on the applicant; S. the variance requested is not the minimum variance that will make possible the reasonable use of the land, building or structure; and 6. granting the variance requested would not be in harmony with the general intent and purpose of this chapter and would undermine the Code, which could be injurious to the neighborhood, or otherwise detrimental to the public welfare. 7). A financial hardship does not constitute a hardship in terms of granting a vanance. 8). At its October 23, 2002, meeting, the City of Winter Springs Board of Adjustment made a finding that the request did not meet any of the 6 variance criteria and voted to recommend that the City Commission deny the variance request. BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT: At its October 23, 2002, meeting, the Board of Adjustment made a finding that the variance request did not meet any of the 6 variance criteria set forth in Section 20-82 of the City Code of Ordinances and voted to recommend that the City Commission deny the variance request. November 11, 2002 Regular Item C Page 6 RECOMMENDATION: The Board of Adjustment and Staff recommend that the City Commission deny the variance request pursuant to the six variance criteria set forth in Subsection 20-82 (1) (c) of the City Code of Ordinances.
