Title
Request for a variance to Chapter 7-Sign Regulations in the Land Development Code,
on Lot 1R1, Block 1, of the First Bapt Church-Colleyville, located at 5300 Colleyville
Boulevard, Case SC18-002
Explanation
Existing Conditions/Background: The subject property is generally located on the
west side of Colleyville Boulevard, just south of the intersection of Church Street. It is
zoned CC-1 Village Retail district and is currently platted.
Requested Variance: The applicant is requesting a variance to allow for the
construction of a monument sign that will encroach into the required eight (8) foot
front property line setback and the visibility triangle at a commercial drive along
Colleyville Boulevard.
Ordinance – Section 7.150, Permanent Freestanding Signs – Sign Classification and
Regulations of the Land Development Code establishes regulations for general business
signs or “Institutional Signs”:
“1. On-Premises Institutional Sign –… The purpose of an on-premises institutional
sign is to identify schools, churches, hospitals or similar public or quasi-public
institutions:
a. Minimum Setback: Eight feet (8’) from an abutting street right-of-way and
thirty feet (30’) from any side or rear property line adjacent to another
property.
…
Section 7.145, Permanent Freestanding Signs – General Conditions
G. No sign, including the pole of a sign, shall be erected or maintained in such
a manner so as to obstruct or interfere with a clear line of sight for the drivers
of approaching motor vehicles within a visibility triangle located on each side
of a commercial driveway which intersects with a public street right-of-way or
public access easement. The triangular area shall be formed by extending
from the imaginary intersection point of the street right-of-way line with the
edge of the driveway a distance of fifteen (15) feet and connecting these
Sign Board of Appeals Agenda Briefing 2a
City of Colleyville Page 2
points with an imaginary line, thereby making a triangle. Within this triangle,
vision shall be clear at elevations between thirty inches (30”) and nine feet
(9’) above the average curb grade.
Chapter 1 (General Provisions) of the Land Development Code authorizes the Sign
Board of Appeals to grant variances to the requirements of Chapter 7 – Signs given the
following considerations:
“…In considering a request for a variance, the Sign Board of Appeals shall
consider, among other things, the degree of variance, the reason for the variance
requested, the location of the variance request, the duration of the requested
variance, the effect on public safety, the protection of neighborhood property,
the degree of hardship or injustice involved, and the effects of the variance on
the general plan of regulation of signs within the City.”
Analysis – Under normal conditions, the proposed sign would not comply with the
setback requirements; however, the proposed sign would be located along the
Colleyville Boulevard corridor, which has been affected by the expansion of the road.
The location of the sign is the only entrance into the property when heading north
bound on Colleyville Boulevard. The sight visibility triangle would not be affected
because of the eighteen (18) foot parkway. The northernmost driveway access to the
property would not be a reasonable option because the neighboring property owner’s
sign (Baylor Emergency Room) is only three (3) feet from the property line, which
would block the applicant’s proposed sign. Additionally, if the applicant were to utilize
the parking lot area, it would cause a handicap parking space to be removed from
use.
Public Notification: Staff mailed notices to property owners within 200 feet of the
subject property regarding this request. Grapevine-Colleyville ISD, where the subject
property is located, was notified per State law. Notice was published in the Fort Worth
Star-Telegram as required by State law and the Land Development Code. To date, staff
has received 1 formal response in support to the case.
Staff Recommendation: Based on current regulations, staff does recommend
approval of the requested sign variance.

First Colleyville Monument Sign Variance Request
Sign Board of Appeals Members:
I am writing you concerning our attempt to have a monument sign on Highway 26 at 5300
Colleyville Blvd. We are needing a variance because the location of the property line is 18’ from
the street. According to Chapter 7 of the city ordinances concerning sign regulations, the 15’ site
visibility triangle starts from the property line and not the street curb. We are seeking to place
the sign in the parking median at the first entrance to our property from Hwy 26 on the south
bound side. At that approach, we would like our sign to be placed on the south side of the
approach. The north side of the same approach has a green space, but there is a retaining wall
which prevents the placement of the sign and there is a significant slope on that part of the
property as well. In order to stay within the regula tions of the sign size, this location is not feasible.
Plus, visibility is better from the south side of the approach. If we were to place the sign to the
right 15’ as to stay out of the sight visibility triangle, it would require us to use a handicap parking
space for the sign. Our parking space is already very limited, and we cannot afford to lose
handicap parking near the front of the building. As seen in the exhibits, there is over 20’ from the
sign edge to the curb of the street, and that would allow for plenty of space for a car to be near
the street to see and not have any obstruction in their line of sight. Also, being that at this exit
from the property, the only way the car can go is right (south). This means that they will be looking
left at traffic, as well as straight ahead for cars turning out of the designated turn lane. There will
not be any traffic coming from the south side on which we are asking to place the sign.
We feel that this is the best location for the following reasons:
x It is the only entrance into our property for those heading north bound on Hwy 26.
x It does not interfere with the sight visibility because of the 18’ of parkway
x It is the most visible location
x The northern most turn in option is not visible because the Baylor Emergency Room sign
is only 3’ from the property line which would be blocking our sign for southbound traffic.
x The southernmost turn into the property had our original sign but it was demolished
when the new side walk was cut in.
x Doesn’t require us taking up a handicap parking spot
