The property has housed two mini storage <br />buildings for a number of years. <br />The applicant desires to split the lot, to create a one acre parcel (the minimum required by ordinance) to <br />construct an advertising sign (billboard). Advertising signs are permitted in the C-3 zoning district, <br />provided they are the principal use, located 100-feet away from an intersection, and 1,200-feet from <br />another advertising sign on the same side of the right-of--way. <br />The review of subdivisions in the city is governed by Chapter 30, Article V of the City Code.
