La Grange Illinois 10/19/2023 Zoning Board of Appeals (Audio Only)

This video covers the October 19, 2023, meeting of the La Grange Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA 642). The session focused on a request from FNBC Bank and Trust for zoning variations regarding wall signage at their location on the corner of Burlington and Stone Avenue.

Key meeting highlights:

Approval of Meeting Minutes: The board approved minutes from June 15 and August 17, 2023, after clarifying attendance corrections (0:22 - 3:39).

Staff Presentation (ZBA 642): Staff presented the bank's request for variations related to the number of permitted wall signs and height restrictions. The applicant sought to add new signage to the building's north and east facades as part of a larger interior reconfiguration and facade improvement project (5:19 - 14:52).

Applicant Presentation: Representatives for FNBC Bank and Trust explained that the new signage is intended to help customers identify the bank, especially given changing traffic patterns and the bank's merger history, which left some existing signage outdated (15:33 - 20:22).

Deliberation and Voting:

North Facade: The board voted to approve a variation for a second wall sign facing the public right-of-way on Burlington Avenue (44:46 - 45:25).

East Facade (Sign Two): The board approved a variance for one sign on the east elevation (in the location referred to as "Sign Two"), requiring the removal of the existing non-conforming sign (54:45 - 55:29).

East Facade (Sign One): The board voted to deny the variance for the sign located over the main east entrance (56:12 - 56:52).

The meeting concluded with staff outlining that these recommendations will proceed to the village board for final approval (57:04 - 58:40).
