16. I-10 & LOOP 202 – DIGITAL BILLBOARDS Case #: Z2022105 Supervisor District: 1 Applicant & Owner: Jacob Zonn, Becker Boards / Fairview & 54th Street, LLC Request: Special Use Permit (SUP) to convert two legal non-conforming (LNC) billboards on the same property in the IND-3 zoning district to digital face and other alterations Site Location: Approximately ¾ mile northwest of the NWC of 56th St. and Pecos Rd. in the Chandler area Commission Recommendation: On 6/22/23, the Commission voted 6-0 to adopt a motion recommending the Board of Supervisors approve Z2022105 subject to conditions ‘a’ – ‘n’: a. Development of the site shall be in substantial conformance with the Site Plan entitled “Plan of Development of a Digital Billboard Off-Site Advertising“, consisting of three full-size sheets, dated April 13, 2023, and stamped received April 17, 2023, except as modified by the following conditions. Staff may determine slight refinements to remain in substantial conformance with the approved site plan. Minor and major amendments to the site plan will be determined in accordance with Chapter 3 of the Maricopa County Zoning Ordinance. b. Development of the site shall be in substantial conformance with the Narrative Report entitled “Narrative Report / Special Use Permit for Digital Billboards”, consisting of 16 pages, dated April 13, 2023, and stamped received June 7, 2023, except as modified by the following conditions. c. The following Planning Engineering conditions shall apply: 1. The applicant shall be responsible for coordinating any requirements that may be imposed by ADOT (redletter@azdot.gov). 2. All development and engineering design shall be in conformance with Section 1205 of the Maricopa County Zoning Ordinance; Drainage Policies and Standards; Floodplain Regulations for Maricopa County; MCDOT Roadway Design Manual; and current engineering policies, standards, and best practices at the time of application for construction. d. All lighting associated with the billboards shall adhere to Article 1112.3.2 of the Maricopa County Zoning Ordinance. e. The digital billboards shall adhere to Article 1403.3.1.J of the Maricopa County Zoning Ordinance. f. Minimum distance between the two billboards on site shall be 531 feet. g. Maximum distance a digital billboard shall be from a freeway main travel lane for the east billboard shall be 345 feet. h. Maximum height for the west billboard shall be 50 feet from the adjacent grade. i. Maximum height for the east billboard shall be 90 feet from the adjacent grade. j. Maximum sign face area for the east billboard shall be 1,200 sq. ft. k. Maximum apex of a double-faced billboard for the east billboard shall be 58 inches. l. Engineering technical specifications and details that demonstrate the digital billboard’s louver technology that will be used in their design must be submitted with each building permit. m. Noncompliance with any Maricopa County Regulation shall be grounds for initiating revocation of this Special Use Permit as set forth in the Maricopa County Zoning Ordinance. n. The granting of this change in use of the property has been at the request of the applicant, with the consent of the landowner. The granting of this approval allows the property to enjoy uses in excess of those permitted by the zoning existing on the date of application, subject to conditions. In the event of the failure to comply with any condition, and at the time of expiration of the Special Use Permit, the property shall revert to the zoning that existed on the date of application. It is, therefore, stipulated and agreed that either revocation due to the failure to comply with any conditions, or the expiration of the Special Use Permit, does not reduce any rights that existed on the date of application to use, divide, sell or possess the property and that there would be no diminution in value of the property from the value it held on the date of application due to such revocation or expiration of the Special Use Permit. The Special Use Permit enhances the value of the property above its value as of the date the Special Use Permit is granted and reverting to the prior zoning results in the same value of the property as if the Special Use Permit had never been granted.
