Sign variance at 1443 E. Genesee Ave.

A ~50-year veteran of Barrett Sign Company explained the building is only about 14 feet from the sidewalk with parking lots on both sides, leaving no compliant sign location; the new sign would actually sit farther from the street than the existing one.

The agency's executive director said the sign is the final piece of more than $1 million in renovations and that digital signs at their Perkins location have been great for communicating with the community.
