PZ-24-0801 Public Hearing Variances of Sections 152.231 (A) (1) for number of signs,
Section 152.231 (A) (2) for size of signs and Section 152.231
(A) (5) for height of signs, 2028 N Seminary St.
The applicant, Robert Senneff and Jake Green of Graham Hospital Association, were present.
The lot area of the clinic is about 360 feet of frontage and there is a 20 foot utility easement across the
front of the lot, which necessitates the sign being set back further than required.
The Commission members considered the following items:
• The granting of the requested variance would not be detrimental to or endanger the public
health, safety, morals, comfort or general welfare;
• The granting of the variance would not be injurious to the use and enjoyment of other property
in the immediate vicinity, nor substantially diminish or impair property values within the adjacent
area;
• The Development Review Committee reviewed the variance request at their July 31, 2024
meeting and recommended approval.
