PROJECT: Sign Variance for Pizza Hut
EXECUTIVE
SUMMARY: Priority Signs and Graphics, on behalf of Pizza Hut, is requesting approval of
variances to Sign Ordinance No. 704, as amended, for Pizza Hut located at 100 W.
Southlake Blvd Suite 100, Southlake TX, 76092.
DETAILS: The property is located at the northwest corner of the intersection of N. White Chapel
Blvd and Southlake Blvd. Pizza Hut is requesting to replace their existing sign, and
the new sign requires variances for sign and logo area, along with the addition of
red siding which is not specifically permitted by Sign Ordinance No. 704, as
amended.
At the Sign Board meeting on October 5, 2023, the Board recommended approval of
the sign area and logo area variances conditioned on the applicant removing the
existing awning and placing the new sign on the lower portion of the building where
the stucco is, and denying the red flush aluminum panel. The applicant has provided
a revised rendering based on the Sign Board's recommendation; however, the
applicant respectfully requests that City Council consider their original proposed sign
(Option 1).
