These remote hearings appear to have met the needs of the board members and the applicants. The concerns that prompted these remote meetings are beginning dissipate but are not eliminated.  Health risks during a world‐wide pandemic  Vaccinations continuing to be administered  Difficulties in coordinating logistics for an in‐person meeting or hybrid of such It is staff recommendation to continue with a remote hearing for June and July 2021 meetings of the LURC and revaluate for the August meeting. Please respond to this email with your agreement with this recommendation or other suggestions for these hearings.

Equal to or better than Additional Justification Additional Justification TJ Malone Digitally signed by TJ Malone DN: cn=TJ Malone, o=Discount Sign, ou, email=tj@discountsign.net, c=US Date: 2021.05.11 08:37:42 -06'00' May 10, 2021 Zoning Board of Appeals and Planning Development & Transportation Director City of Fort Collins - Zoning 281 S College Ave. Fort Collins, CO 80524 Regarding: 4606 S Mason St, Fort Collins, CO 80524 – Monument Sign Variance Name of Project: 4606 S Mason St, LLC / Appliance Factory Mattress Kingdom (AFMK) Signage This request for variance is regarding Article 3.8.7.2 Table (G)(1) Table Note: 1; only having one freestanding sign per frontage with shared vehicular access. There are two existing monument signs on W Harmony Rd, one for AFMK at 4606 S Mason St and one monument sign that is a multi-tenant / Panda Express at 4600 S Mason St. And there are two existing monument signs on S College Ave, one for AFMK at 4606 S Mason St and one for Fazoli’s at 4624 S Mason St. This request is to remove and replace the existing monument signs at 4606 S Mason St to update and improve them and the overall aesthetic of the property. A variance is needed to alter or modify the structure or to change the shape and size of the existing monument signs. The proposed monument signs will not diverge from the Land Use Code standards except in a nominal, inconsequential way when considered in the context of the neighborhood because the signs already exist. The existing signs are very weathered and getting to the point of disrepair. The cost to repair them is prohibitive as they are a steel construction and have significant rust to the internal structure. The new signs would be constructed of aluminum and utilize the most up to date standards in LED lighting making them more energy efficient. There is no other signage on either of these frontages besides the Northeast corner, which can only be viewed from intersection of Harmony and College. Not having a monument sign on either of these frontages would significantly impact the applicant’s visibility and business. The proposed monument signs, along with the other wall signs, are within the sign area allowance; will have proper height from the flowline based on setbacks; are over 75 ft away from any other existing freestanding signs and the new design structure will better match the primary finish and colors of the associated building. Thank you for your consideration of this variance. Please feel free to contact me at any time with questions or concerns. Sincerely, Discount Sign 303-996-1004 T.J.

Hardship 3. Nominal and inconsequential Additional Justification Justification for Variance Request | 400 9th Street, 80524 This request for variance to the zoning code in the RL (residential low density) district seeks to reduce the required front yard setback from 20 feet to ±4' (LUC 4.4(D)(2)(B)), and the corner side setback from 15' to ±12' (LUC 4.4(D)(2)(D)). This will be for a new addition onto the front of the home to improve curb appeal and construction quality. The addition will involve removing an existing structure that is believed to have been built around the 1960s with a new addition in the same footprint. The new structure and all architectural features and overhangs will not encroach the front and corner side setback any more than the existing structure does. See the following justifications for this request: 1. Hardship- Existing structure being demolished and replaced is roughly 60 years old based on construction materials and methods. The portion of the house that this existing structure attaches to was built in 1919, before the land use code existed. 2. Nominal and Inconsequential- The Andersonville neighborhood where this house is located, has a diverse mix of architectural styles and ages of the structures, especially along Lemay/9th Ave. Parts of the neighborhood have been developed more recently, like the two properties north of 400 9th St, which were redeveloped in the early 80s, and meet more modern setback requirements. However, the house 4 doors to the north at 416 9th Street was built in 1961 and has a very similar front setback to the subject house. Many homes along this stretch of Lemay/9th Ave. have similar setbacks. This variance request will be better than existing because of the roughly 40% of the existing footprint that will be newly constructed as a covered patio, open on two sides. A consequential benefit of this new structure will be improved site lines for drivers at the adjacent intersection.

The neighbor behind us has three sheds that almost touch the back fence. With a 6’ privacy fence, and large bush in our front yard, the shed will not be visible from the street. I appreciate your attention.

Nominal and inconsequential Additional Justification Additional Justification Zoning Variance Application May 10, 2021 Property Address: Christ United Methodist Church, 301 East Drake Road, Fort Collins, CO 80525 Zoning Designation for Property: RL Variance Application Regarding: Installation of New Electronic Messaging Sign to Replace Existing Electric Manual Messaging Sign Reason for Variance Request: The proposed new sign will not diverge from the Land Use Code standards except in a nominal, inconsequential way when considered in the context of the neighborhood. Variance Request: 1. Background: The RL zone regulations require that an electronic sign be located at least 100 feet from an adjacent property line. The current electric sign (picture attached) is approximately 85 feet from the nearest neighboring property line (see attached site map which shows the sign and the nearest property line from above). This sign contains messaging which is changed via manual placement of lettering. This sign has been in this location since 1998 and is electrically illuminated from dusk to dawn daily. In addition to the messages on this sign, the church occasionally uses separate 3’X8’ or 4’X8’ banners located on the property to promote special announcements regarding church ministries. 2. Request: Replace the existing electric sign in the same location as the existing sign rather than relocating the sign location to 100’ from the nearest adjacent property. 3. Justification: This is justified for the following reasons: a. The south side of the nearest residence which faces the church sign is not the primary side of the residence as shown in attachment 1. It has a garage and a secondary entrance of the house only. b. There are two residences who are capable of viewing the church sign, one at the corner of Mathews and Drake and the other at the corner of Tulane and Drake. All other residences are blocked from direct viewing by church or other landscaping. The Pastor and the Chair of the Board of Trustees of the church have meet with those who live in both residences. Both had no objections to the new sign and support the variance application. c. Relocation of the sign will result in the sign being less visible to drivers on East Drake Road than the current sign since it will be further away from the street. i. A less visible location for drivers will result in less effective church ministries. ii. A less visible location may result in the continued or expanded use of separate banners to promote church ministries and special events. d. The new sign in the existing sign location will eliminate or significantly reduce the requirement to use supplemental banners on the property. e. The new electronic sign will be no more obtrusive than the current electric sign since it will be approximately the same size as the current electric sign, will be illuminated for the same duration each day, and will be illuminated by LED lighting rather than incandescent lighting. 4. The new sign will be within the code regulations for electronic signage in an RL zone in all other aspects except for the required distance from the nearest adjacent property. The existing sign is approximately the same size as the new sign will be. See attachment 2 for a photo of the existing sign. 5. The site map of the existing sign in relation to the nearest property is shown in attachment 3.
