applicable to the site of the variance that do not apply generally
to other properties in the same zone;

Individual Business Sign
Surety Land Title Company, Inc.
Benchmark Shopping Center
Applicants are proposing to install two signs for their business located in the
Benchmark Shopping Center. One sign will be located on the building facia, and
one hanging below for a pedestrian sign in the arcade area.
The combined sign square footage is approximately 12 S.F., measuring the letters
individually, which complies with our current Sign Code.
Currently, the Benchmark Shopping Center has a variety of signs, which would lead
me to my only recommendation, and that is that we encourage the Benchmark Shopping
Center to develop a sign program.
