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