permit to the Applicont upon the following items ond conditions:
Chairperson, Zoning Boord of Appeals
Dale
Discount Tire is requesting a variance for the addition of two wall signs on their building, one on the
south side and one on the north side.
The practical difficulty of this property is the setback of the building from Grand River, and the
placement of neighboring businesses to the east and west, but closer to Grand River. This has resulted
in limited visibility of the Discount Tire building from Grand River Ave.
This property is unique in that the business has parking lot entrances on both Eleven Mile Road and on
Town Center Drive.
Since the Walmart opened last year, the amount of traffic on these roads has
increased dramatically, and in order to adequately direct traffic to the correct building and parking
areas, additional signage is required.
