Sign Variance for Chapel Crossing Shopping Center
PROJECT:
REQUEST: On behalf of James Stahala, Oracle Engineering is requesting approval of a variance
from the Sign Ordinance No. 704-C regulations for monument signs for Chapel
Crossing Shopping Center. The property is located at 245 W. State Highway 114 and
200 Countryside Ct.
There are three lots in this shopping center and the applicant is proposing one business
monument sign per lot. Specifically, the applicant is requesting two multi-tenant
monument signs and one shopping center identity sign. Since Sign Ordinance No. 704-

signs that will be permitted for the shopping center. Drive-through monument signs
associated with the proposed bank that comply with the ordinance will still be allowed.
