DECEMBER 18, 2025
ITEM NO.: 1 Z-10223
Section 36-543 of the City’s Zoning Ordinance prohibits Roof Signs, or any sign that is
not mounted on a vertical surface. Therefore, the applicant is requesting a variance to
allow the proposed roof mounted sign on the south building roof area, which has
street frontage along Cantrell Road.
Staff is supportive of the requested variance and views the request as reasonable.
The proposed roof mounted sign on the south building roof area will be visible by
northbound traffic on Cantrall Road located along the southwest perimeter of the
property. Staff believes the proposed signs are proportionally small in nature and
should have no adverse impact on the adjacent properties.
E. Staff Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of the requested variance to allow a roof mounted
sign with minimal street frontage, subject to the descriptions and any conditions
contained in the “staff analysis”.
