ANALYSIS
The applicant is requesting a variance to allow for a free - standing pole sign to be located at 13413 East
106x' Street North, with a proposed height of 30 feet, and an area of 672 sq. ft. As shown in the exhibit
provided by the applicant the height of the sign does fall with in the City of Owasso's guidelines for
pole height. However, the sign face exceeds the maximum square footage allowed by code (150 sq. ft.)
by 522 sq. ft.
The Board of Adjustment, upon application, and after notice and public hearing, may grant variances
from the terms of this code only upon a finding:
1. That the variance is necessary due to extraordinary or peculiar circumstances related to the size,
shape, topography, or location of the subject property.
2. That the extraordinary or exceptional conditions of the subject property are not a direct result of
the actions of the applicant.
3. That the variance as granted represents the least deviation from the prescribed regulations
necessary to accomplish the purpose for which the variance is sought and which is consistent
with stated intent of this Code.
4. That the granting of the variance shall result in greater convenience to the public in identifying
the business location for which a sigh code variance is sought.
5. That the granting of the variance will not be detrimental to public welfare will not constitute a
public nuisance or adversely affect public safety.
6. That the granting of the variance will not interfere with the location and identification of
adjacent businesses, buildings or activities.
Provided that the Board in granting a variance shall prescribe appropriate conditions and
safeguards, and may require such evidence and guarantee or bond as it may deem necessary to
enforce compliance with the conditions attached.
The purpose of the City of Owasso sign code is to provide for the appropriate use and location of
signs in a manner that will not adversely affect or impact property values, compatibility of land
use, community appearance and identity, and to otherwise promote the general welfare, public
safety, convenience and order to the City of Owasso.
Staff believes the variance is not necessary due to extraordinary or peculiar circumstances related to the
location of the subject property. Visibility of the site from its adjacent roadways is not hindered as the
site is adjacent to Highway 169 with good visibility. The variance requested represents a great
deviation (522 sq. ft.) from the prescribed regulations necessary to accomplish the purpose for which
the variance is sought to deliver.
Letters were mailed to all property owners within three- hundred (300) feet of the subject property on
and the request was advertised in the Owasso Reporter. To this date the staff has not received any
comments concerning the request.
RECOMMENDATION
The staff does not recommend approval of OBOA 06 -11.
