Staff noted the Planning and Zoning Board held a public hearing on February 9, 2000, and recommended approval based on conditions with an amendment providing placement of the sign 24 hours prior to church events. Staff added that Mr. DeGardner and Ms. Peg Smith recommended the placement of the sign be allowed one hour prior to church event.

The church will be allowed a temporary sign, to be placed no more than two (2) hours prior to events and removed two (2) hours following events.
