Mr. Gary Gresham, 6331 E Chapel Hill Ct., asked if the church would be held to the same kind of requirements as the homeowners were originally held to, as masonry structure, so they would have some kind of protection for their property value. He was also concerned with the lighting on the parking lot and the landscaping. Mr. Foley said the lighting would be the new lighting that would be directional and fully shielded. The developer has already said that the structure would have to be compatible with the community. Several homeowners expressed their concerns that the church would be under the same covenants as to how the structure will be built and the type of material used. The developer and the church said they would be willing to meet with the homeowners to discuss their concerns. After reading the Fact-of Findings for the Special Exception, Mr. Kramer asked for a motion to approve or deny the petition. Motion was made by Christopher Crouch, second by Don Barry to approve the Special Exception for Cedar Run Limited for a church in an area zoned B-2. Motion carried 5-0. Next was Ross Holloway, Holloway Engineering,representing William Parks, requesting a variance from development standards of setbacks for the Wendy's sign. The existing sign is ten feet from State Road 67 and they want to relocate the sign over to the east on Lot 1, which is where Wendy's is located, or on Lot 2. There is a power line that runs not quite parallel to State Road 144, so they are asking for a variance of setback from twenty feet to ten feet. This will . allow them to locate the sign on a narrow strip between the right-of-way and the power line. The existing sign will be removed and they are not sure if the new location will be on Lot 1 or Lot 2. Mr. Kramer asked if the sign would be perpendicular to State Road 67 and they said it would be at an angle so it could be seen from both highways. Mr_ Kramer asked if any of the over hang would be over the easement for the power line and Mr. Holloway said it would not. After reading the Fact-of-Finding for variance of development standards Mr. Kramer asked for a motion to approve or deny the petition. Motion was made by Mr. Jon Swisher, second by Christopher Crouch to approve the variance from development standard for the setback from 20 feet to 10 feet for a sign to be located either on Lot 1 or Lot 2 Parks Minor Plat. Motion carried 5-0. There being no further business to come before the board a motion to adjourn was made by Mr. Barry, second by Mr. Jon Swisher. Motion carried 5-0. The next meeting of the Board of Zoning Appeals will be September 9, 2004 at 7:00 P.M. at the Mooresville Town Hall. Chairman ATTEST:
