Is this property within 500 feet of another town line? No State clearly the unusual hardship or exceptional difficulty that prompts this application and indicate why other options are unacceptable. (Use a separate sheet of paper if necessary) . Admiral Moving & Storage would like to relocate an old sign ( 4ft letters 61 feet long) to another section of the same building facade. The building has varying heights, and is 40 feet deep and 435 feet long The purpQaP of thia_Pffort will be to al Tmprove the aesthetics of the sign and building by reP1a(-inq the old multi-colored letters "Admiral Self-Stor" with new dark blue letters which will read "Admiral Moving & Storage"; b) Tdentifv the parent copalnv_rather than the self-stor operation; c) . Improve sign visibility from I-291 by placing it higher on the facade d1yniminish visibility of this sign from Route 30 traffi in front of the premises ( in the new location it will be blocked from view by the office/warehouse _ building and abutter's potato warehouse) while enhancing long-distance_visibility. Our hardship lies in that the current zoning regulations refer to a :nt section (10.5) . and the other applicable section 6 1 5 7 does not provide for relocation and improvement of an existing non conforming sign This hardship is unique to this property. The sign will not be any larger than the present sign and will certainly be more attractive.
