By TERESA SMITH, Times-Union Staff Writer-

Kimm Dock's variance request for two additional free-standing signs was denied by the Warsaw Board of Zoning Appeals members Monday in a unanimous decision.

Dock, and her husband, Joe, own and operate Kimm's Food Mart, 1900 Plaza Drive.

The "extra" signage, signs that are permanently attached to light poles, already exists on the property.

The business was issued a sign permit in January 1998 for a 120-square-foot sign on the northeast corner of the property. Since then, the additional signs were added.

In June, Dock attended the Warsaw Code Enforcement Hearing in response to a violation of sign ordinance letter from the Building and Planning Department.

She was advised at that time the additional signs should be removed. It was recommended she apply for a permanent sign on the facade of the Food Mart building.

The BZA also approved a request by Scott Holladay, 914 E. Main St., for a 3-foot east side yard setback for a bathroom/laundry room addition. A minimum 5-yard setback is required in a Residential-2 zone.

A request by Four Season's Housing Factory Outlet to construct a manufactured home on North Cook Street, Lot 44, in Kit's North Addition, was tabled.

BZA members are Bruce Woodward, Alan Clingan, Richard Keevan and Tom Heuer. Trish Brown is the non-voting city council representative. Dan Hampton was absent. [[In-content Ad]]
