CALL TO ORDER

OATH OF TRUTH
The Oath of Truth was administered to Mr. Bill Tyler, representing
Braum's Ice Cream Stores, Inc.
BAZ 82-07, Braums' Ice Cream Stores, Inc.
The first order of business was consideration of application BZA 82-07
submitted by Braum's Ice Cream Stores, Inc.
Mr. Tyler then addressed the Board, outlining the variance requested.
Those present were informed that the request was for a pole sign the
size of 112 square feet, and the City Code allows only 50 square feet
in a pole sign in "C-1" zoning.
A lengthy discussion then ensued during which concern was expressed for
what kind of a hardship would be put on the applicant to reduce the size
of the sign. Vice Chairman Jesse Woods stated that he failed to see how
any undue hardship would be imposed to deny the request for a variance.
Other large signs in the same general area were also discussed. First
Alternate Joel Stiner stated that in the absence of a comprehensive
sign ordinance encompassing the entire downtown district, it would seem
inconsistant to require signs on the west side of Main to be different
from those on the east side of Main Street.
It was noted that no correspondence had been received from neighboring
property owners, and no one was present to speak regarding the variance.
First Alternate Joel Stiner made a motion to approve the requested sign
variance. The motion was seconded by Member Doug Lamb and failed, lacking
four positive votes, as follows:
Ayes: Buckner, Lamb, & Stiner
Nays: Woods & Deavers
Absent: Thompson & Wright
Consequently, application BZA 82-07 submitted by Braum's Ice Cream Stores
was denied.
