Case Number: Z-2893
Applicant: Little Rock Diagnostic Clinic
Location: 10001 Lile Drive
Description: Lot 4, Baptist Medical Center
Addition
Present Classification: "E-l" Quiet Business District
Variance: Requests a variance from the Sign
Area Section 43-6 (9) and (10) of
the Code of Ordinances to permit
signs larger than permitted
BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT ACTION: THE BOARD VOTED TO APPROVE
THE VARIANCE AS REQUESTED. (3 ayes - 0 noes - 2 absent)
Staff Recommendation: Subject property contains 6.66+
acres and is located to the west of the Baptist Medical
Center. Its "E-l" Quiet Business zoning classification
allows a lease sign and a nameplate at 8 sq. ft. The
applicant proposes a building mounted sign at 28 sq. ft.
and a ground mounted sign at 30 sq. ft. The staff feels
that given the size and topography of this tract and the
amount of traffic it will generate, the sign -age proposed
is not excessive. Both signs conform to the allowable
height and area restrictions of the new Sign Ordinance.
Therefore, our recommendation is approval as requested.
The owner's representative was present.
There were no objectors present.
