CHRONOLOGY:
November 10,1997- The City Commission adopted Ordinance No. 683, which, among other
things, created the SR 434 Redevelopment Overlay Zoning District. It also set forth standards
for sign age and provided a 5-year maximum amortization period for signs that were not in
compliance with the new standards.
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 were to 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.
July 26,2002- As a reminder of the up-coming deadline, the former Community
Development Director Charles Carrington sent out letters to each property owner with a sign in
either of the SR 434 districts.
October 9,2003- The variance application (incomplete abutters list) was received by the City.
November 6,2003- The Board of Adjustment at its regularly scheduled meeting voted 3-1 to
recommend that the variance be granted, citing the limitation of space (given the 17' building
setback).
December 12, 2003- The Commission heard the Applicant's request and denied the request for
the variance; however, the Commission then instructed Staff to bring this item back on January
12, 2004, after reviewing alternatives that might be in the best interest of the applicant and the
SR 434 corridor. (See Attachment)
January 26, 2004
Regular Item 509
December 18, 2003- The City Manager and Staff visited the site and unanimously agreed that
given the site constraints that encroachment into the 10' setback was necessary given the site
constraints.
January 12, 2004- The City Commission heard the request for a variance and voted
unanimously in favor of allowing the monument sign in the proposed location, but with the
stipulation that the height of the sign be reduced to six (6) foot maximum and the pedestal
base not extend the width of the sign in an already limited area. (See Attachment)
CONSIDERATIONS:
1). Commissioner McGinnis has indicated a willingness to place this item back on the Agenda
at the request of the Applicant given that the Applicant was not present when the Commission
made its decision on the variance; However, Commissioner McGinnis indicates that her
request is no way is an indication of support for the Applicant's request to change the previous
action of the Commission.
2). The subject site at 620 W. SR 434, is located at the northwest corner of Bombay and SR
434. The property has a C-l Zoning, a Commercial Future Land Use designation, and is
located within the SR 434 Redevelopment Overlay Zoning District.
3). The applicant proposes to replace an existing non-conforming sign with a new monument
sign as required by code.
4). The existing site includes two one-story office buildings. The buildings have nice
architecture which includes an extended roof overhang. A courtyard space between the two
buildings is enclosed by a wall to the south which runs parallel to SR 434. The wall and
landscaping adds to the appearance of the site. The buildings are setback only 17' from the
existing SR 434 ROW line; the wall is only 11' from the SR 434 ROW however does not run
the full length of the building. These create major constraints in locating the monument sign.
FINDINGS:
1). The Applicant proposes to replace the existing non-conforming pole sign with a monument
sign. The applicant is requesting a location that would encroach 4 feet into the applicable 10'
sign setback, because of the extension of the base; the majority of the sign (copy area)
encroaches only by 3'. The applicant contends that, given the location of the building and wall
that there is no place in the SR 434 ROW for a monument sign that would not be in conflict
with the 10 foot setback [from the property line] requirements.
2). Staff concured that the location determined by the Applicant, is the best location for the
sign given the site constraints, the architecture ofthe building and the roof overhang.
3). However, in recommending the 3' variance, Staff recommended the following relating to
the proposed monument sign:
January 26, 2004
Regular Item 509
The overall height of the sign be reduced from 8' maximum to 6' maximum. The sign
as currently proposed is too massive for the space allowed. Reducing the total volume
of the sign will cause it to better fit within the space available. (This reduction in
height probably will not affect the actual copy area or size oflettering that is proposed.)
The base of the sign is not to extend out beyond the" copy area but is to be flush, given
the lack of setback space.
4). The 3' variance is the minimum variance that can be reasonably achieved.
BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT ACTION:
At its regular November 6,2003, meeting, the Board of Adjustment voted 3-1 to recommend
approval of the varianee. The majority felt that the request met the variance criteria.
RECOMMENDATION:
Commissioner McGinnis recommends the Commission rehear the Signage Variance Request
from Dr. Corum of620 West SR 434 (SR 434 Redevelopment Overlay Zoning District), based
on the request ofthe Applicant, given that the Applicant was not present when a decision was
rendered by the Commission.
Staff recommends that the City Commission grant the 3' variance request, but only if the
overall height of the sign is reduced (from 8' maximum) to 6' maximum height and the base of
the sign does not extend out beyond the copy area. Given these considerations, Staff believes
that granting the variance will not undermine the Code, nor be injurious to the neighborhood,
or otherwise detrimental to the public welfare.

REGULAR MEETING - NOVEMBER 6, 2003
PAGE4of6
B. Dr. Pete Corum JRequests A Variance To AJlow A Monument Sign Within The
10' Sign Setback Set Forth In Section 20-486., For His Office At 620 West State
Road 434. . '
,
.
Mr. John Baker, AICP, Senior Planner, Community Development Department, read the
request for a variance sign setback stating, "Staffhas looked at this and do hot see any
way that we can recommend approval. Also, the staff does not see that they meet the six
(6) criteria for the VariEUlC\? Therefore, the staff has to recommend denia1."
Dr. Pete Carom, 620 West State Road 434, Winter Springs, Florida 32708, represented
by Kenneth Soday, US Identity Group: Presented pictures of the new sign which is
permitted, j~t :does not meet the setback. It fits the criteria other than the 10 foot
setback. The building is only 16 feet back from the edge of the right-a-way; from the
sidewalk itself. Dr. Corwn has owned and operated his business from this same location
for twenty (20) years. The new sign ordinance has put a, hardship on him to teplace the
existing sign. -
Discussion.
(
Board Member Tackaberry stated, "I personally feel we should convey to the City
Commissioners that this is one of several, and maybe they should reconsider so that other

RE: Sign Variance
Dear Dr. Corum:
On January 12,2004, the Winter Springs City Commission met and reconsidered your
application for a variance. Based on Staffs review of the site and site constraints, the
Commission approved the following:
. Location- Approved the location as proposed by the applicant. (See Attachment A)
. Setback Variance- Accepted a 3' variance into the 10' setback for the location of the
new monument sign (i.e. no part of the sign is to be closer than 7" from the property
line along SR 434).
. V olume- Given the limited area and the visual interference with the roof overhang, the
Commission is requiring that the total height of the sign be reduced to 6', so that the
scale of the sign fits the space available. (See Attachment Bl- Applicant's Request &
B2-Commission's Approval)
. Style- Given that the limited area is already an issue, an extended pedestal that
encroaches into that limited area even more, is not appropriate. The Commission is
requiring that the pedestal be flush with the copy area so that the variance granted is the
. . .
mll1ImUm varIance necessary.
Enclosed, you will find a copy of a scaled drawing showing the approved location and a copy
of the graphic indicating the height and pedestal restrictions.
Sincerely,
Eloise M. Sahlstrom, AICP, ASLA
Senior Planner
