RESOLVED
- Grant the variance for the proposed sign on the grounds that the church presently owns the parcel on which the proposed sign would be located, with the condition that the variance will require both parcels to have one and the same owner in order to be valid, and that a better looking sign is a benefit to the neighborhood, and that a sign the size of the proposed sign in a location near to the roadway is necessary in order to be legible at local speed limits of 45mph and 55 mph in that area.
