Hall used exhibits presented to explain the request.
Board member Gotcher questioned Mr. Hall regarding how long the
tenants have been in place. Mr. Hall replied Hartford Realty developed
the property in 2004 and left the larger suite open. He stated they had
issues getting tenants and since then he purchased the property and is
using the office space.
Board member McNosky stated there will only be a few tenants. Mr. Hall
concurred.
Discussion occurred between Board member Moore and Mr. Hall
regarding the height, dimension and purpose of the proposed electronic
portion of the sign. Mr. Hall used exhibits presented to explain the
request.
Board member Gotcher questioned Mr. Hall regarding if the landscaping
could be moved or removed that would help with the visibility of the sign.
Mr. Hall replied yes, but there is limited space in which to put the
required landscaping.
Board member McNosky stated the parking spaces appear to be in the
way as well.
Board member Hulet stated agreeing with needing the two foot height
increase but not with a four foot increase.
There being no one wishing to speak, the public hearing was closed at
7:41 p.m.
Board member Gotcher suggested that the applicant meet with staff
regarding the landscaping of the property.

disadvantage with regards to parking cars. She further stated being in
favor of an increase in two feet in height.

increase but that the remaining square footage of the sign remain in tact.
Board member Hulet seconded.
