October 25, 2004 <br /> The present tenants, future tenants and owners of the building at 2812 Anthony Lane <br /> South in St. Anthony, Minnesota petition for a Sign Variance for the following reasons: <br /> 1) Granting the variance will not be detrimental to the public welfare or <br /> injurious to other people in the neighborhood or village. <br /> 2) A hardship would develop for the occupants of this building if held to the <br /> strict letter of the regulations because of the following reasons: There will <br /> be 4 tenants in this building and all of the company's have walk-in clients. <br /> The size of the sign per City Ordinance would not accommodate all four <br /> of the company's names because the text would be quite long: Seal Guard <br /> Systems, Inc., Associate Appraisers, Inc., Snow Larsen, Inc., and Twin <br /> City Gold& Silver, Inc. <br /> 3) The conditions upon which we make application for a variance are based <br /> are unique to the parcel of land for which the variance is souoght and are <br /> not applicable, generally, to other property within the same land-use <br /> classification. This building sits below Highway 88 and County Rd C and <br /> the building only 16 feet high. The rooftop mechanical equipment <br /> protrudes on top of the roof and is unattractive from Highway 88 and <br /> County Rd C. Placing a sign higher than the top of the building around3, <br /> sides would significantly improve the appearance of the building because <br /> it would cover up the mechanical equipment and make the building look <br /> newer. <br />
