Ms. Berry replied yes, the property owner has given her permission to represent her at the meeting. Board member Moore questioned staff regarding if this request meets all of the setback requirements with the expansion of SH26? Ron Ruthven replied yes. He stated the only variance request is for the side yard setback. Board member Reynolds questioned staff regarding the SH26 widening, will there be any safety hazards with the placement of this sign? Ron Ruthven replied the right of way for the current expansion of SH26 has already been acquired. He stated this sign will not block the visibility triangle.

Harrell Survey located at 1212 W. Murphy Road Explanation Rob Robbins, applicant representing Toll Brothers, Inc., is requesting a variance on a residential lot located at 1212 W. Murphy Road. The applicant is requesting the variance to allow an off-premise sign to be constructed near the northwestern corner of the lot in order to advertise new residences being constructed in The Reserve at Colleyville Addition, which is located further east along the northern side of Murphy Road. The sign will be visible from both Precinct Line and Murphy Road. The following is the specific provisions in the Land Development Code regarding these types of signs: Section 7-130(C) -General Conditions Applicable to all Signs - of the Sign Regulations On-Premises Reauirement -All signs shall be located on the same premises where the product or merchandise being advertised is located, except where a specific provision in this Chapter provides for off-premises advertising. Section 7-215(A) -Prohibited Signs - of the Sign Regulations Off-Premises Sians -Off premises signs, including billboards, are prohibited in the City of Colleyville, except where specifically allowed by these regulations. City of Colleyville Page 1 Printed on 11/6/2008 Agenda Briefing Continued Therefore this type of off-premise sign is prohibited. The applicant has an agreement with the current property owner to lease this portion of the lot, contingent on the approval of the variance request. The proposed sign would be approximately 11 feet wide and 10 feet tall. The advertising face would encompass an 8 foot by 8 foot area, surrounded by stone on the bottom and the two sides. If approved, the applicant requests that the sign be left in place for a minimum of 3 years and be allowed a review before the Sign Board of Appeals, or an administrative official, on an annual basis for each additional year beyond three, for a total period not to exceed 6 years. Public Notification. Staff mailed notices to 10 property owners within 200 feet of the site. As of this writing, staff has received no written response in acknowledgement of the variance request. Summary. Given that off-premise signs for the requested purpose are not permitted in the Land Development Code; and given that the Sign Ordinance already allows off-premise weekend signs for builders, staff's analysis is that no hardships or special conditions exist that warrant any violation of the Sign Regulations.

The applicant is requesting a variance to allow an electronic moving/flashing (or scrolling message) sign, that is part of an existing monument sign, to change messages more than once every five minutes. The following is the specific provision in the Land Development Code regarding these types of signs: Section 7.215(H) of the Sign Regulations Moving and Flashing Signs - No person shall erect or allow to be displayed upon premises owned or controlled by him any illuminated, animated, moving or flashing sign. Exception: Only a sign, which has illumination, that is turned on and off, changes in light intensity, color or copy, at a rate equivalent to, or no more often than once every five (5) minutes, is permitted. It is further provided that a sign, which uses illumination to provide time of day and/or temperature, only shall not constitute a flashing sign. A permit was issued for the sign, including the electronic message portion, in August 2008 City of Colleyville Page 1 Printed on 11/6/2008 Agenda Brietinp Continued as the sign met all code requirements. Construction of the sign is not yet complete. The applicant requests the sign be allowed to scroll every 10-15 seconds so that motorists on Colleyville Boulevard have the opportunity to see approximately two messages per trip. The sign currently scrolls the office name, Total Eye Care, and contact number with the time and date flashing every five minutes, which is allowed by code. Public Notification. Staff mailed notices to 17 property owners within 200 feet of the site. As of this writing, staff has received no written response in acknowledgement of the variance request. Summary. Given that the electronic scrolling portion of the sign is in violation of the Sign Regulations and can be programmed to comply with the five minute scrolling minimum required by the Sign Regulations, staff's analysis is that no hardships or special conditions exist that warrant any violations of the Sign Regulations.

Applicant's Initials ~ Date ~ ~ U C~-' ~„„." Sign Variance Board Application 1. What are we asking for A sign variance for electronic message board. Currently, the ordinance requires that the screen change no more often than once every 5 minutes. We are requesting a variance that will allow us to change the screen no more often than every 10 seconds. We will intersperse time, temperature, date, community service messages and eye care related messages. We would also like to make the messages more visually appealing by incorporating animation into our transitions and messages. We want to make the messages visually attractive and easy to read. Passersby only have 6 seconds of exposure to the message board, by spreading the text over more than one screen we can make the letters larger and easier to read and greatly increase the chance that there is a different message each time a car drives by. With the message changing only every 5 minutes, more often than not, people will see a message that they have already seen thus decreasing the chances they will look again in the future. Increasing the screen change frequency increases the number of messages available to be seen by the public improving the chances that they will see a message that will compel them to check out our office and shop in Colleyville. 2. Do similar conditions exist in the area? Yes, the Colleyville Heritage High School sign employs moving graphics, flashing backgrounds and changes every 2 seconds. 3. Describe how unique conditions or circumstances will not result from your actions. We see no down side to the city by this action, only positives, by increasing the likelihood that Colleyville residents and residents that are transitioning through Colleyville will shop in here. We wish to use our sign to educate the public about community service and eye care related messages giving them a reason why they should "shop" at our office in Colleyville, instead of just passing through. 4. Is there any way to do what you want without this request? No, next to location, signage is the most important marketing tool for a small business. Having a changeable sign is a great tool to get our message out to the public and let them know we are here, what we do and to a great degree, how we do it. After a while static monument signs, though critical tools for small businesses, are ignored by people. They get used to seeing the monument signs and eventually ignore them. If people always look to check the time on the way to work and sometimes see a message about our office or Colleyville, they will know we are here and hopefully when they need an eye doctor they will think of us. The economic conditions have now become uncertain and difficult. Abetter location, better facility and better signage are essential components of our survival plan. secretary of ate is ~ Fited in the C?f~r3e of the ~ ~.v. lox 13897 ~` ' Secretary ~ Stette of Texaffi .austin, TX 787'11-3897 ~ ~ ..

CA X28 CITY OF COLLEYVILLE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT DEVELOPMENT REVIEW COMMITTEE DATE October 20, 2008 TO RICH DRISCOLL EMAIL FROM Justin Bass, Planner SUBJECT A-08-012 6114 Colleyville Blvd The Colleyville Development Review Committee (DRC) has reviewed your application for your variance request submitted to this office. The following comments are for your consideration. 1. The Tarrant Appraisal District lists this property as owned by Colleyville Commercial Properties. If this has changed, provide proof of ownership. If not, we require approval by the current owner of record to process this case. 2. Electronic signs that change messages faster than every five minutes are not permitted within the City of Colleyville. 3. What length of time is requested for a message to last before switching to another message? Provide a range that would satisfy this request. 4. Would this sign operate on a 24-hour basis or just during business hours? 5. If possible, provide a video and photos that sample what you would display on the sign and the lengths of time the displays would last. Please respond to these comments and submit any additional revisions or materials no later than Friday, October 31, 2008. PUBLIC HEARING SCHEDULE Sign Board of Appeals: Tuesday, November 11, 2008, 7:00 p.m. Please contact me if you have any questions at 817.503.1055 or at bassirci.collevvilleax.us. 100 Main Street - Colleyville, Texas 76034 - 81 7.503.1050 Applicant's Response Justin, I'll burn a CD and get it to you. Unfortunately, the top part of the sign is scheduled to be completed today and will not be reflected in the video but I wanted to get this to you today and I don't think the sign will be complete before 5 today. The video format is in Quicktime format. Regarding the questions. 1. The current owner is still Colleyville Commercial Properties. 3. I would like the sign to change every 10 seconds and allow video. 4. Yes it would operate 24 hrs a day. 5. The video is 33mb and I'll burn a disc and bring it to you. I would keep the content fresh otherwise people get bored with it. I will include public service type announcements (for instance like the upcoming Lion's Club "Breakfast with Santa" or the current one shown on the CD regarding early voting ending Friday) in addition to ocular or health education messages.
