PROJECT: Sign Variances for Perspire Sauna Studio
EXECUTIVE
SUMMARY: Priority Signs and Graphics, on behalf of Perspire Sauna Studio, is requesting
approval of sign variances under the Kimball Oaks Master Sign Plan regulations to
allow a rear attached sign facing South Kimball Ave for their location in Kimball Oaks
Shopping Center. Perspire Sauna Studio is located at 2251 E Southlake Blvd, Suite
100.
DETAILS: Priority Signs and Graphics is requesting variances for an attached wall sign labeled
“Sign C”. The attached wall sign (C) requires a variance due to the Kimball Oaks
Master Sign Plan prohibiting wall signs to be located on the east elevation of their
building facing South Kimball Drive. The applicant has provided 4 options showing
different sign placement for consideration, although Option A is their preferred
choice. With all 4 options, the sign is the same dimensions – the only difference is
sign placement.
