SRB 2012 -01 (WITHDRAWN BY APPLICANT) PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER DIGITAL BILLBOARD REQUEST PER SECTION 106(12)B OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES BY THE HILLS SURFACE RIGHTS FOUNDATION NEAR 6300 NE LOOP 820 WITHDRAWN Mayor Trevino announced that SRB 2012 -01 had been withdrawn by the applicant. No action is required. 4. SRB 2012 -02 PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER DIGITAL BILLBOARD REQUEST PER SECTION 106(12)B OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES BY CBS OUTDOOR ADVERTISING NEAR THE 6040 BLOCK OF NE LOOP 820 APPROVED Mayor Trevino opened the public hearing and called on the applicant to come forward. Tanya Lillie and Wesley Roden with LBS, Inc. located at 11233 W. Stemmons Fwy, Dallas, came forward. Ms. Lillie explained that the request was to relocate a billboard from the east side of the track to west side of the track with a digital feature on the west side. Ms. Lillie stated that they also were requesting a height variance due to a clearance requirement by DART. Dave Pendley, Building Official, summarized the item. The applicant is requesting permission to relocate an existing 672 SF non- conforming conventional billboard and modify it with digital technology on one side of the sign. The billboard is currently located in the DART Right -of -Way on the east side of the railroad tracks (south side Loop 820) near the 6000 Block; and is proposed to be relocated on the west side of the tracks to make room for North Tarrant Expressway improvements. The digital face will be on the west side of the billboard and will be visible to east bound traffic only. This project will meet the requirements established by the Code of Ordinances and state law by adhering to the limitations on height, size, message refresh rate, brightness control, etc.; however, the following variance has been requested by the applicant 1 . 22' -6" height variance is requested to meet minimum DART clearance requirements. TxDOT's statute for maximum billboard height is 42' -6" measured from the elevation of the main traveled lanes to the top of the billboard. In this scenario, the main lanes of Loop 820 are recessed approximately 20 feet below the grade of the sign base. This difference actually counts against the height of sign. More importantly, DART requires a minimum clearance of 25 feet between 10MZ the top of their rails and the bottom of the billboard. In order to meet DART's requirement, the billboard's height must be 65 feet above the main traveled lanes of Loop 820; or 50 feet above the grade at the base of the sign (which is approximately the same height as the current sign). Staff believes that the proposed billboard relocation and conversion will meet the Highway Beautification Act of 1965 as wells as city requirements, and does not believe the conversion of the billboard with digital technology on the west side will have a negative impact on surrounding properties. Staff recommends approval of SRB 2012- 02 and the 22' -6" height variance due to DART clearance requirements. Mayor Trevino called for anyone wishing to speak for or against the request to come forward. There being no one wishing to speak, Mayor Trevino closed the public hearing and called for the motion. COUNCILMAN WELCH MOVED TO APPROVE SRB 2012 -02 AND THE 22' -6" HEIGHT VARIANCE DUE TO DART CLEARANCE REQUIREMENTS. COUNCILMAN WHITSON SECONDED THE MOTION. MOTION TO APPROVE CARRIED 5 -0. 5. ADJOURNMENT Mayor Trevino adjourned the meeting at 8:04 p.m. Oscar Trevino — Mayor ATTEST: Monica Solko, Assistant City Secretary SIGN REVIEW BOARD MEMORANDUM From: The Office of the City Manager Date: 9 -24 -2012 Subject: Agenda Item No. B.1 SRB 2012 -04 Public Hearing to Consider a Request from The Hills Surface Rights Foundation for Permission to Reconstruct a Formerly Existing 370 Square Foot, On- premise, Pole Sign as per 106 -15 of the North Richland Hills Code of Ordinances Presenter: Dave Pendley, Building Official Summarv: Pursuant to Section 106 -15 of the North Richland Hills Code of ordinances, The Hills Surface Rights Foundation (THSRF) is requesting permission to reconstruct a formerly existing on- premise pole sign. The proposed sign will have 370 square feet of electronic /digital message area on each side of the sign and will be located towards the east end of The Hills Church property, adjacent to the Loop 820 right -of -way (6300 NE Loop 820). General Descrirstion: According to Section 106 - 3(12), properties located within the freeway overlay district may only have one on- premise pole sign. However, prior to the North Tarrant Expressway right -of -way expansion, The Hills Church enjoyed the legal non- conforming status of having two on- premise pole signs (see photo below). The land where the sign formerly existed was acquired by TxDOT during the course of the right -of -way acquisition and had to be removed in order to make way for the NTE construction. As a result of its removal, the sign is not eligible to be replaced because it will not comply with the current sign regulations. Pursuant to Section 106- 15(c)2, the Sign Review Board is authorized to grant building permits for the reconstruction, extension, or enlargement of a nonconforming sign. Recommendation: The Development Review Committee has reviewed this request and found that THSRF has two contiguous parcels along Loop 820 containing over 2,000 linear feet of freeway frontage along. Freeway frontage auto dealerships are also allowed to put separate pole signs (one per dealership) in areas with less frontage than The Hills property. As such, staff believes the continuation of this non - conformity will not be detrimental to the surrounding area and is in support of this request. Recommend approval of SRB 2012 -04.
