"Public Hearing -On a variance to the Sign Regulations as requested
by Young Oil Company. This variance request is for a sign to be
erected with 36 square footage, overall height 30', height above
ground 24'. The sign to be located at Woody's Superette at 406
East Main Street, Allen, Texas. Zoning Case No. SV11-1-83-6."

Oil Company presented the request to the Board. He stated that this
concept had been used in other cities and presented a picture of the
design.

the request in order to better advertise their product. This would
allow more visibility from the existing and future streets.
There was no one to speak against this request.

Concerns of the Board were of the height of the request. When the
new proposed streets would be developed it would leave Woody's in an
island with streets surrounding it. There would be no other signs to
block the requested sign. Also, concern of the Board was that this is
in the new CBD District area and they would like to conform with the
existing guidelines of the Sign Regulations.

Member Chrisman, the Board voted none (0) for and four (0)
opposed to deny the request. The motion failed.
MOTION: Upon a motion by Board Member Karlsruher and second by Board
Member Kirkindoll, the Board voted three (3) for and one (1)
opposed that being Board Member Chrisman, to modify the request,
such that if the applicant should desire he be allowed to add
to the existing Woody's sign with logo and in addition to Woody's
would not raise or add to height and would not be in excess of
60 square feet in the aggregate.
