DRIVE, BEING 2.5 ACRES DESCRIBED AS LOT 3, BLOCK 35, HOLIDAY
WEST ADDITION.
DENIED
Chair Trevino opened the public hearing and called on Director of Planning Clayton
Comstock to introduce the item.
Mr. Comstock informed the Board the applicant is requesting a sign variance to Chapter
106 of the Code of Ordinances on 2.5 acres located at 5640 Rufe Snow Drive. Mr.
Comstock provided site photos of the property.
Applicant representative for RaceTrac, Andrew Malzer, 200 Galleria Parkway SE, Suite
900, Atlanta, Georgia, informed the Board they are seeking a variance to the current
sign. The applicant is proposing to remove the catwalk and ladder required to change
numbers manually. They propose to utilize the existing pole and cabinet to update and
replace with electronic numbers that are changed from corporate in Georgia. The new
sign would also include; new logo, replace fuel grade panels, replace pricers with 61"
and 32" sunshine LED pricers, paint existing pole and cabinet.
Mr. Comstock stated staff shared with the applicant how they could improve the sign and
use scrollers to display the numbers. RaceTrac stated that they prefer LED to preserve
visibility.
Mr. Comstock presented a summary of the variance request and stated it was a legal
non-conforming sign at the time of installation in 1996 as it met the sign criteria in the
Zoning Ordinance. The proposed variance this evening is to allow LED for 64% of the
sign area. The LED display includes red and green lighting with black background. Mr.
Comstock stated the options for the Board's consideration is to (1) approve variance
request as presented, (2) approve the variance request subject to changes to the
design, location, or size of the sign or (3) deny the request.
The Board, applicant and staff discussed scrollers and current RaceTrac monument sign
on Davis Boulevard and making this work on Rufe Snow. Economic Development

SIGN REVIEW BOARD MEMORANDUM
FROM: The Office of the City Manager DATE: March 28, 2022
SUBJECT: SRB22-0002 Consideration of a request from Burkett Media
Management LLC for a permit for nonconformity to Chapter 106
(Signs) of the North Richland Hills Code of Ordinances to allow a
digital billboard conversion at 8650 Airport Freeway, being 0.07
acres described as Lot 3, Block B, Richland Oaks Addition.
PRESENTER: Clayton Comstock, Planning Director
SUMMARY:
On behalf of Burkett Media Management LLC, Beau Burkett is requesting a permit for
nonconformity to Chapter 106 (Signs) of the North Richland Hills Code of Ordinances.
The applicant is requesting to convert an existing billboard sign to a digital billboard sign
at 8650 Airport Freeway.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
The property is located on the south side of the Airport Freeway frontage road between
Bedford Euless Road and Blackfoot Trail. The site is immediately adjacent to a
convenience store with fuel sales (Exxon) and a car wash (Xpress Car Wash). The 3,183-
square-foot property is zoned C-1 (Commercial) and is located in the Freeway Corridor
Overlay district.
Burkett Media Management LLC is requesting approval of a permit to remove the existing
nonconforming billboard sign and construct a digital billboard on the property. The
applicant is under contract to purchase the property from Five Star Properties. The
application and supporting materials are attached. The materials include pertinent
information and correspondence, a site survey, a site plan, construction drawings, color
image exhibits of the proposed sign, and other relevant documents.
Section 106-9 of the Signs chapter allows the Sign Review Board to authorize the
reconstruction or relocation of a nonconforming billboard, including its conversion to
digital technology. Digital billboards may only replace existing nonconforming off-premise
billboards located on nonresidential lots that have frontage on NE Loop 820 and State
Highway 121. Subsequent approval by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT)
is not required for the digital billboard. The City of North Richland Hills is a TxDOT
Certified City since 2011, and may exercise control over commercial signs within the city
limits. A permit issued by the City is acceptable instead of a permit issued by TxDOT
within the certified area.
"K
NOKTH KICHLAND HILLS
Digital billboards are subject to certain design standards required by Section 106-12(b)
of the Sign chapter. The following is a summary of the primary design standards
associated with the request. A complete copy of the standards is attached for reference.
Sign Area
Billboard signs are limited to 672 square feet in total display area. The proposed digital
billboard meets this with this standard, measuring 14 feet in height and 48 feet in width.
Sign Height
The maximum height permitted for digital billboards is
based on the grade level of the main traveled way
closest to the sign. The height limit must not exceed
g g
an overall height of 42.5 feet from the centerline of the
main traveled way.
For the purposes of billboard signs, the height
standard is based on the grade level of the adjacent
general purpose lanes of the highway. This is
consistent with prior consideration of digital billboard
conversions. At the proposed location under
consideration, the general purpose lanes on Airport
Freeway are located below the North Tarrant Express toll lanes. The elevation of the
general purpose lanes is approximately 20 feet, which could allow for a billboard with an
overall height of 62.5 feet.
The applicant proposes a billboard with an overall height of 85 feet, which is based on
the grade level of the North Tarrant Express toll lanes. Information provided by the
applicant indicates the elevation of the toll lanes as 50 feet above the grade level of the
base of the sign.
Additionally, the property is located in the Freeway Corridor Overlay district, which
restricts all pole sign heights to 65 feet. While this height does not specifically apply to
billboard signs, it does provide a standard of public expectations for the heights of signs
within the freeway corridor. The allowed height of any billboard sign is subject to specific
approval by the Sign Review Board.

EXISTING SIGN PROPOSED SIGN
Support structure
The support structure for digital billboards must be clad in a
decorative material consisting of brick, stone, or other approved
masonry material. The use of EIFS is not an approved finish `'
material.
The proposed billboard complies with this standard. The support
structure would be clad in a decorative stone product, Texas gold
chalk, supplied by Texas Stone Designs. An example of this
material is shown at right and is consistent with the Freeway
Corridor Urban Design Plan for integrating stone elements into
the corridor parkways and medians.
Landscaping
The property is located within the Freeway Corridor Overlay district. Properties in this
overlay are subject to certain landscaping standards as part of new construction, as
required by Section 114-71(k) of the Vegetation chapter of the Code of Ordinances.
The Sign Review Board may place conditions of approval on sign applications to provide
for the maintenance of the integrity and character of the area in which the permit is
granted. As alternative to the overlay standards, and consistent with prior approvals for
digital billboard, the DRC recommends the following landscaping requirements be
implemented as a condition of approval to soften the appearance of the sign structure at
the ground level.
1. A landscape plan that includes the following features must be included with the
sign permit application. The landscape plan must be prepared by registered
landscape architect.
a. Three (3) large deciduous oak trees of a minimum 3-inch caliper planted along
the freeway property line.
b. Five (5) Vitex ornamental trees planted at the southeast corner of the parcel.
"K
NOKTH KICHLAND HILLS
c. A planting bed of at least two hundred (200) square feet installed around the
base of the support column. The bed must be separated from the surrounding
turf by a decorative stone border and must be kept maintained clear of high
grass and weeds. Plantings must include a mixture of at least sixteen (16)
shrubs selected from Dwarf Abelia, Autumn Sage, and Texas Sage.
2. All landscaped areas must be watered by an automatic underground irrigation
system equipped with rain and freeze sensors.
The applicant is requesting that landscaping not be required in association with this permit
request.
Permit for nonconformity
The request is being processed as a permit for nonconformity. Approval would be
associated with the sign permit for the digital conversion of the billboard, and approval
does not run with the property in the same manner as a variance. If future improvements
were proposed on the site, compliance with the standards would be evaluated again at
that time.
A public hearing is not required for consideration of a permit for nonconformity.
RECOMMENDATION:
Deny SRB22-0002 as proposed; or, approve SRB22-0002 subject to a maximum sign
height of 65 feet, landscaping as recommended by the Development Review Committee,
and compliance with all other development standards required by Section 106-12(b) of
the Sign chapter.

Re: Sign Upgrade by Burkett Media—8650 Airport Fwy, North Richland Hills, TX
Dear Mr. Pendley:
Our firm specializes in sign law issues from coast to coast. We are working with Burkett
Media on its North Richland Hills project. As you know, Burkett Media hopes to improve an
existing billboard on Texas Highway 183 (TEXpress Toll 121 / 183 Express) for the benefit of
local businesses and the community. Please include this letter in the Sign Review Board/City
Council packet for the March 28 meeting.
Our review of the City Code shows that the Council has the authority to approve the
upgraded sign. One question was the spacing from other billboards. Although the Code generally
requires 1500 feet spacing: "The sign review board is authorized to grant variances to the
minimum spacing requirements provided that no variance violates the Highway Beautification
Act of 1965." For example, the Council approved the Clear Channel LED billboard that is 1250
feet away from this sign. The Clear Channel approval was issued in 2014, long after this billboard
was in existence. Notably, the State of Texas (TXDOT) only requires 500 feet between such
billboards in North Richland Hills. Thus, the spacing can and should be varied by the Council.
In order to make sure this is a win-win situation, my client will voluntarily accept several
conditions as shown on the attached sheet. These voluntary permit conditions include a ban on
adult content and use of the sign for City messaging.
Thank you and please do not hesitate to reach out to us if we can be of assistance prior to
the meeting.
Sincerely,
E. Adam Webb

Re: Sign Upgrade by Burkett Media(SRB22-0002 to be heard March 28, 2022)
Dear Mr. Pendley:
Our firm has been asked to review the comments of the Development Review Committee
("DRC") directed toward the application of Burkett Media to improve an existing billboard on
Texas Highway 183. Please accept this letter and the various attachments as the applicant's
response as directed by the DRC. Burkett Media looks forward to appearing on March 28 for the
hearing and to gaining approval for this win-win project.
In response to each of the DRC's points, Burkett Media responds as follows:
Comment 4: . . .provide color image exhibits showing how the proposed billboard would
appear after the installation. The exhibits should include eastbound and westbound views
from the Airport Freeway frontage road as well as both the lower main lanes and upper
toll lanes ofAirport Freeway.
Response: Please see Exhibits A-C attached hereto.
Comment S: The proposed billboard appears to be a complete replacement of the
existing billboard rather than a conversion. The site plan drawing indicates the support
column being relocated by approximately 8-10 feet. In the response letter to these
comments, describe the specific plan for the construction, and whether that includes total
removal of the existing sign. The application needs clarification on whether it is a
conversion or new construction.
Response: The existing sign will be fully removed and the new sign will be constructed
pursuant to the engineered blueprints submitted. This is critical because the old structure does
not meet current building code requirements. The proposed structure will meet all up-to-date
codes, including increased wind loads. The safety and soundness of the structure is our top
priority. Please note, all other sign upgrades that have been approved and completed were
complete rebuilds. This is necessary to meet engineering requirements because the required
masonry and two digital units add significant weight.
Comment 6: . . . The response letter to these comments must include justification as to
why this height is appropriate for this location and include examples of signs of similar
height in the area.
The upgraded sign will meet Section 106-12(b)'s sign height requirements because the
code allows for the sign to be 42.5 feet above the grade of the main travelled way. The main
travelled way is now the Toll Express Lanes, so the relevant roadway height has increased since
the original billboard was installed. Please note, the surveyor found that the sign is 50 feet below
grade, so a height of 92.5 feet is allowed. Burkett Media, however, is seeking only what is
needed for visibility, a height of 35 feet above the toll lanes.
Comment 7: Revise the engineered blueprint drawing to remove the catwalks from the
design of the structure, as both sides of the sign are planned to be digital.
Response: Please see Exhibit D attached hereto. The catwalks have been removed.
Comment 8: In the response letter to these comments,provide the following:
a. Provide the supplier source or manufacturer specification for the proposed Texas
gold chalk stone cladding material for the pole surround.
Response:
Texas Stone Designs
2001 W. Mayfield Rd
Arlington, TX 76015
(800) 336-1131
u1„�°q„(a.>,,texass,t.onedesi ms..com
The stone to be used is shown in Exhibit E.
b. Indicate who will maintain the landscaping on the parcel on which the sign is located.
Response: Landscaping is not required. Please see response to Comment 9 below.
Comment 9: The Development Review Committee will recommend to the Sign Review
Board that landscaping be installed on the property address requirements of the Freeway
Corridor Overlay district and to soften the appearance at the ground level. A landscape
plan that includes the following features must be included with the next submittal.
a. Five (5)Desert willow ornamental trees planted on the parcel.
b. A planting bed of at least seventy-five (75) square feet installed around the base of the
support column. The bed must be separated from the surrounding turf by steel edging or
a decorative stone border. Plantings must include at least twelve (12) shrubs selected
from Dwarf Abelia, Autumn Sage, Texas Sage, Dwarf Yaupon Holly, Red Yucca, New
Gold Lantana, and Gulf muhly grass.
c. All landscaped areas must be watered by an automatic underground irrigation system
equipped with rain and freeze sensors.
Response: The relevant provision of the Freeway Corridor Overlay District regulations is
Section 118-554, which states:
Sec. 118-554. -General conditions.
The following general conditions shall be required of all development located in the
Freeway Corridor Overlay District. If not addressed in this division, the general conditions
of the base district shall apply.
(1) Screening and fencing standards. Article Vlll of this chapter shall apply to the
Freeway Corridor Overlay District, except that required masonry screening walls
adjacent to residential uses shall be a minimum of eight feet in height and shall have
an element of Lueders Limestone (i.e. columns, part or all of wall).
Thus, the only landscaping rules would have to come from Article VIII which is titled
"Screening and Fencing Standards." Upon review of Article VIII, however, there are no
landscaping requirements therein. Please note that this sign will be much more attractive to
those passing near the sign base than the original billboard it is replacing. The addition of
substantial and expensive stonework will provide a massive improvement.
I have re-attached as Exhibit F the permit conditions that Burkett Media has voluntarily
agreed to accept as an element of this approval.
Please let me and Mr. Burkett know if there are any other questions or concerns. Mr.
Burkett looks forward to completing this upgrade. It will truly be a win-win project. Thank you
and please do not hesitate to reach out to us if we can be of assistance prior to the meeting on
March 28.

Re: Lighting Analysis for Daktronics BLD 14X48
Burkett Media
The attached lighting analysis pertains to the digital display manufactured by Daktronics, Inc., and proposed for
installation at 8650 Airport Fwy, North Richland Hills,Texas 76053. The following is an explanation of the
analysis:
1. Units of Measurement. A foot-candle (or foot-candle,fc, Im/ft2, or ft-c) is a measurement of light
intensity. One foot-candle is defined as enough light to saturate a one-foot square with one lumen of
light. For example, where the display illuminates at 0.14 foot-candles, it has a light intensity of
approximately 14%of a single wax candle as viewed from 1 foot away.
2. Assumptions:The accompanying graph depicts illumination levels in foot candles that the display will
produce based on nighttime running levels measured at 85' in elevation.The measurements assume
total darkness with regards to the surrounding light and an all-white content on the display. These
assumptions provide for the worst-case scenario, not the more likely application.
3. Practical Application:Typical content runs at 25-35%of the brightness of all-white content,therefore,
the actual levels of illumination will nearly always be markedly lower than that shown in the graph.
4. Ambient Light Effects.The presence of ambient light producing elements at night including, but not
limited to, roadway and traffic lighting, commercial lighting from nearby commercial properties, the
moon, etc., will further diminish the impact of the light output from the display in question.
5. Display Features The display is equipped so as not to exceed 0.3-foot candles above ambient light as
measured from the appropriate distance.This standard is based on the acceptable standards for
outdoor illumination from the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America, and has been
implemented in the numerous states and municipalities throughout the U.S.
6. Automatic Dimming Technology.The perceived brightness of an electronic message center is dependent
on a variety of factors.Ambient light conditions play the largest role in affecting the brightness of the
display.
An electronic message center communicates its messages by emitting light. It therefore must not be too
dim, since it couldn't be distinguished in sunlight; nor should it be too bright, as the image will be
distorted and difficult to read.The sign must adjust its brightness over the course of the day.Today's
signs can dim from 100%during a bright sunny afternoon,to around 4% (depending on manufacturer
and model) during the darkest night.That means the sign is only 4%as bright at night as during the

daytime. During the course of the day,the sign will periodically adjust its brightness levels to ensure it is
operating appropriately.
This adjustment is possible because of the photocell/light sensor.All electronic message centers
manufactured by Daktronics come equipped with a light sensor, which detects the ambient light level,
and adjusts the sign's brightness accordingly. There are up to two hundred fifty-six levels of dimming
available.
Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

-Display at 396 of Maximum Daytime Brightness(7,500) *Calculations are based on Red,Green,and Blue LEDs(White Content)powered
-Calculations take into account an overall Billboard height of 85' to their maximum potential for nighttime viewing.Values are shown in footcandles(fc).
-Any rise or fall in elevation or physical blockage is not shown in calculations
Sec. 106-12. Electronic message boards and digital billboards.
(b) Digital billboards. With approval by the sign review board as described in section 106-15, existing
legal nonconforming off-premise billboard signs located on lots having frontage on U.S. Interstate
Highway Loop 820 and Texas State Highway 121 may be converted to digital billboards under the
following conditions:
(1) Each message shall be displayed for at least eight seconds and a change of message shall be
accomplished within two seconds or less.
(2) Transitions between the display of a message, content, and/or image shall be immediate only
and shall occur simultaneously on the entire sign face.
(3) No display shall include animation, full motion video, blinking, flashing, dissolving or fading
images, moving light, scrolling images or text, nor shall it project a static image upon a
stationary object.
(4) The display of message, content, and/or image shall be visible only from one direction of traffic
travel per sign face on the primary roadway to which the sign is designed to be read.
(5) No portion of a digital billboard shall project into a dedicated utility easement or be closer than
five feet to a federal, state, or local right-of-way at the time of initial construction.
(6) The main support structure shall have a decorative finish consisting of brick, stone, or other
approved masonry finish materials. The use of EIFS shall not constitute an approved finish
material.
(7) A minimum spacing of 1,500 shall be required between one digital billboard and any other
digital or conventional billboard on the same side of the roadway facing the same direction.
The sign review board is authorized to grant variances to the minimum spacing requirements
provided that no variance violates the Highway Beautification Act of 1965.
(8) A digital billboard shall have a default mechanism built in to either turn the display off or show
"full black" on the display in the event of a malfunction.
(9) The display may not display light of such intensity or brilliance to cause glare or otherwise
impair the vision of the driver, or results in a nuisance to the driver.
(10) A digital billboard shall be equipped with both a dimmer control and a photocell, which
automatically adjusts the display's intensity according to natural ambient light conditions.The
brightness of the display shall not exceed 0.3 foot-candles over ambient light measurement at
a distance of 250 feet from the sign.
(11) Upon notification, the sign operators agree to coordinate with city staff to display emergency
information critical to the traveling public, such as AMBER ALERTS from a National Center for
Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) authorized source, Homeland Security, and other
alerts involving terrorist attacks, and natural disasters. Emergency messages are to remain in
the display's rotation according to the designated issuing agency's protocols.
(12) The owner of a digital billboard shall provide contact information for a person who is available
to be contacted at any time and is able to turn off the sign promptly after malfunction occurs

or reduce the intensity of the sign within 12 hours of a request by the building official or the
Texas Department of Transportation to a level acceptable to the city and/or department.
(13) A digital billboard or its message, content and/or image shall not be configured to resemble a
warning or danger signal or cause a driver to mistake it for a warning or danger signal.
(14) A digital billboard or its message, content and/or image shall not resemble or simulate any
lights of official signage used to control traffic in accordance with the currently adopted edition
of the TXDOT manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices.
(15) A digital billboard shall not:
a. Exceed 672 feet in total display area.
b. A digital billboard shall not exceed an overall height of 42.5 feet, measured from the
highest point of the sign to the grade level of the centerline of the main-traveled way
closest to the sign, at a point perpendicular to the sign location. The lowest point of the
sign shall have a minimum clearance of at least 20 feet above the adjacent grade.
(16) In cases where a conventional billboard is converted to a digital billboard of larger size,the net
area increase of the proposed digital billboard display must be physically removed from other
conventional billboards located within the city and under the same ownership or control as the
owner proposing the conversion. Once an inventory of all billboards within the city is
submitted, the owner may choose which specific conventional billboard face(s) are to be
removed in exchange forthe net area increase caused by the digital sign conversion.The square
footage can be accumulated by the surrendering of smaller conventional billboard face(s) as
long as the aggregate amount removed equals or exceeds the area increase caused by the
conversion.
(17) All digital and conventional billboards shall pay annual renewal fees in accordance with
Appendix A.
