BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT CASE NO. WA-95-12/1 I. REQUEST This request is for in a Commercial-One already erected and Marshall Street. STAFF REPORT ?AGE 1 - approval of a district.. The contructed the variance to allow a roof sign owner of the property has sign on the roof at 4892 The applicant has stated that the sign is located on the. roof and is being supported by two poles placed through the top of -the roof and anchored to the floor inside of the building. (See Exhibit A) The sign was brought to Code Enforcement's attention after receiving a complaint. After investigating, it was found that the applicant did not obtain a building permit to erect the sign and therefore created his own hardship in this matter. A warning notice was issued citing Sections 26-406: Sign permit required and 26-409(9): Roof signs are prohibited. After receiving the warning notice the applicant applied for a building permit, the permit-was denied by because staff concluded that this is a roof- sign and thus prohibited. The_applicant appealed that decision to the Board of Adjustment in February by requesting an Interpretation of a roof sign. That request was denied. See attached minutes and resolution. Relating to the building permit, the applicant submitted a drawing showing the structuring of the sign. According to the. building department, this sign cannot be approved as constructed. The building department would require the applicant to submit an engineering study to confirm that the structure (building, -roof and sign) would adequately hold-the loads imposed on it. (See Exhibit B) II. CRITERIA - In regard to the criteria used to evaluate a vaiance request, staff finds. states the following conclusions. 1. Can the property in question yield.a reasonable return in .use, service or income if permitted. to be used only under the conditions allowed by regulation for the district in which it. is located. Yes, the property can yield a reasonable return in use and an equal return in income with a free standing sign serving the same purpose. CITY OF SVHEAT RIDGE PLANNING DIVISION STAFF REPORT BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT STAFF REPORT CASE N0. WA-95-12 2. Is the plight of the owner due to unique circumstances. No, there are no unique circumstances. 3. If the variance were granted, would it alter the essential character of the locality. Staff feels this request would alter the essential character of the locality if the variance is granted because of the precedent being set in this area and the entire. city. The partial intent of the roof sign prohibition is aesthetics. 4. Would the particular physical surrounding, shape or typographical condition of the specific property involved result in a particular hardship upon the owner, as distinguished from a mere inconvenience, if the strict letter of the regulations were carried out. No, the applicant created his own hardship by not obtaining a building permit before the sign was complete. I3ad the city received a permit for such a sign, it would have been denied based on the city's sign code and building code regulations. The owner would may not have invested time and money and would have been given alternatives to advertise the business. 5. Would the conditions upon which the petition for a variation is based be applicable, generally, to the other property within the same zoning classification. Most definitely yes. Staff has had other business owner waiting for such a variance to be approved so they will have a good basis and precedent to request approval for their roof sign. 6. Is the purpose of the variation based exclusively upon a desire to make money out of the property. Yes, the purpose of signage and advertisement is to draw attention to the business with the potential of creating more income for that business. 7. Has the alleged difficulty or hardship been created by any person presently having an interest in the_property. Yes, as stated previously, had the owner/s followed the_ proper procedures, this request would not be necessary. CITY OF WHEAT RIDGE PLANNING DIVISION STAFF REPORT BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT STAFF REPORT CASE N0. WA-95-12 8. Would the granting of the variation be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to other property or improvements in the neighborhood in which the property is located. No, however, it would set a dangerous.precedent throughout _- the city. 9. Would the proposed variation impair the adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property or substantially increase the congestion in the public streets or increase the danger of fire or endanger the public safety or substantially diminish or impair property values within the neighborhood. No, the sign would not impair the supply of light, air or congestion, however there is the concern for fire and public safety if building code requirements are not met, specifically an engineering study requested by the building division. IV: STAFF'S CONCLUSIONS It is staffs opinion that the sign supported by the roof.. It was con jnaintained above the eaves, as per 5fa~ c nsi e ZTT15 o e a roof clearly prohibited. in question is attached to and the definition of a roof sign. sign and concludes that it is The applicant in this case has clearly created his own hardship by not following city codes and procedures put in place to help prevent this. kind of problem. The applicant has alternatives available to him, such as erecting a freestanding sign or banners. The money and time invested in this sign seems to be a legitimate concern to.the-applicant, however staff must reiterate that this hardship is self imposed. Staff feels that this request needs serious consideration from the Board of Adjustment and stresses that a self imposed bards: and mere inconvenience should not be i ication for aAprot~a ."-~ -„~.,e ar~r~rntra l nr ~n a vrtt id.ttt.c W ~u.tu ScL a ..~..++~~%-' prece ent throughout the city.

An application by Steve Bartuaek for approval of a variance to allow a roof sign in a Commercial-One zone district located at 4892 Marshall Street. Susan Ellis presented the staff report and asked for questions from the Board. Board Member ECHELMEYER asked the difference between the subject sign and the OK Tire and Rubber roof sign at 38th and Harlan Street. Wheat Ridge Board of May 25, 1995 Ms. Ellis stated tha However, the City is erected prior to the legal non-conforming Adjustment Minutes Page 16 t many roof signs exist is the City. phasing them out through attrition. Signs present law going into effect, are called signs. Board Member ECHELMEYER asked how long the law had been in effect. Ms. Ellis stated she believe since 1976. She added that the law specifically prohibits roof signs from 1988 to the present. Board Member ECHELMEYER asked about "graadfathered" signage. Ms. Ellis stated that owners of signs erected prior to the change of law prohibiting them may change only the face of the sign. Once the sign is removed, it cannot be replaced. Board Member HOWARD asked if the applicant submitted a property survey with his application? Ms. Ellis stated a site plan was submitted, which she put oa the overhead projector. Board Member HOWARD asked if the building was on the property line. Ms. Ellis stated the applicant has stated it is within a few inches of the property line. She pointed out that adequate space is their parking area to erect a freestanding sign, which would be legal. Board Member WALRER asked if they had adequate setback to allow sigaage in the parking lot. Ms. Ellis stated there was a 71-foot, it-inch setback, which was e more than adequate. Tim Bartels, 669 South Sherman Street was sworn ia. Mr. Bartels showed to the Board two pictures he had taken of other roof signs in Wheat. Ridge. These were entered into the record. Ms. Ellis stated both signs were roof signs, but were erected prior to the change in law. Mr. Bartels asked why roof signs were not allowed in the City. Ms. Ellis answered that the major reason was aesthetics. Visually, roof signs are not appealing she added. Mr. Bartels complained that the subject sign looks much better than many other roof signs in the City. Wheat Ridge Board of Adjustment Minutes May 25, 1995 Page 17 Ms. Ellis stated that was true, however, roof signs in general are not desirable. Mr. Bartel_s_ asked if a freestanding sign must face Marshall Street. Ms. Ellis answered ao. The sign can face any direction. Mr. Bartels, asked if a freestanding sign was erected, would they have to construct a planter around it? He had concern that this would eliminate parking space. Ms. Ellis stated she did not want to discuss details of a freestanding sign at this time. A freestanding sign is allowed. Mr. Bartels gave a brief history of the construction of the sign. He added that a sign was essential to his business and he reiterated that erecting a new sign would be costly. Chris Flageolle, 6885 West 91st Court, #22-202 was sworn in. Mr. Flageolle stated the sign had increased their business. He felt moving the sign would be a hardship, but acknowledged that they had created the hardship themselves by erecting the sign without permit. Mr. Flageolle spoke of potential problems with utilizing the current sign as a freestanding sign. He elaborated. Ms. Ellis stated a 50-foot freestanding sign would be allowed, due to the close proximity to the highway. Board Member ABBOTT moved that Case No. WA-95-12, as application by Steve 8artunek for approval of a variance to allow a roof sign in a Commercial-One zone district located at 4892 Marshall Street be denied for the following reasons: 1. The Board concurs with staff responses to all nine criteria and to Staff Conclusions, Section IV. of the staff report. 2.
