MOORESVILLE BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS THURSDAY, DECEMBER 16, 2004, 6:00 P.M. MINUTES The Mooresville Board of Zoning Appeals met on Thursday, December 16, 2004, at 6:00 P.M. at the Mooresville Town Hall. Board members present were: Christopher Crouch, Mike Young, Don Barry and Jon Swisher. Chainnan, Alan Kramer was absent. Town Attorney Tim Currens was present. A motion was made by Don Barry, second by Jon Swisher, to approve the minutes of November 18, 2004 meeting. Motion carried 4-0. First on the agenda was Tony Langley representing the Orchard Country Store requesting a variance of set back for sign. He would like to set the sign closer to road than the ordinance allows. The present sign for Gregory Orchard is presently in INDOT's right-of-way and what they would like to do is construct a sign for the Orchard Country Store and Gregory Orchard. To meet the ordinance guidelines the sign would have to be sixty feet from the edge ofthe pavement and would be in the middle of their parking lot. So they are requesting for the sign to be five feet from the right-of-way line, which would be thirty-five feet from the edge of the pavement, and placed between the two businesses. After reading the Fact-of-Finding for a variance from Development Standards a motion was made by Jon Swisher, second by Mike Young, to approve the variance from development standard for the sign to be five feet from right-of-way and thirty five feet from pavement. Motion carried 4-0. Next was Steven Litz, representing Donald Fischer, DDS, 118 N. Indiana Street, requesting a variance for additional parking. Two months ago they had the area rezoned to B-1 and they are requesting a variance to tear down the existing house to be able to add additional parking for his dental office. Now the patients use the same drive to enter and exit the parking lot, with the additional space they will have two entrances. They will then be able to have one-way entrance and exit and add approximately ten parking spaces. They will enter turning west and leave going east and the green space will stay about the same as it is now. The paved area will be approximately where the existing house is now. They need a variance for the side setback on the south side. Mr. Currens asked ifMr. Litz knew the exact dimensions ofthe variance he is requesting. He said they were on the diagram they had prepared. Mr. Young asked if they would be adding thirteen spaces and Mr. Litz said they would be squaring off some areas and there would be about ten new spaces. After reading the Facts-of-finding for a variance from developmental standards a motion was made by Don Barry, second by Jon Swisher to approve the variance for the side setbacks on the south side of property at 118 N. Indiana St. Motion carried 4-0. Next was Ross Holloway, Holloway Engineering, representing C C Patton, 315 Bolton Ave. requesting a variance of use that was tabled at the November 18, 2004 meeting.
