RE: PetSmart #2298—4218 E. Blue Grass Road

To Whom It May Concern:

On behalf of Petsmart (“Kieffer”) is requesting a variance/amendment to Ordinance 11.11 for SignageAllotment — Business Districts.

We are seeking a Variance to the total amount of sign area allowed. Overall, the newly proposedsignage will have a total square footage of 176.58. The total currently allowed under Ordinance 11.11 islOOsq ft.

Exterior signage is a vital element of any businesses’ success, particularly when the business is affiliatedwith a national brand that potential customers are familiar with. Additionally, a significant amount ofPetSmart’s business is generated by “walk-in” business and if Petsmart is not able to have similarexterior signage as its neighbors, the financial impact would be substantial.

Located off US-127 and Blue Grass Road, the exterior signage is extremely important to PetSmart’svisibility for the following reasons:

1. Distance from US-127 to storefront is approximately 1020 ft and is approximately 570 from BlueGrass Road.

2. Safety of passing motorists. Current speed limit on US-127 is 55 miles per hour (mph).

3. Comparable to both Dick’s Sporting Goods and Joanne Fabrics who share space with PetSmart

In summary, Kieffer is requesting that the proposed exterior signage be granted a variance of increasedsquare footage allowed.

1. The appropriate sized signs to be visible from US-127 and Blue Grass Roads.

2. The location to be easier to locate, especially for those unfamiliar with the local area.

3. Our proposed signs are comparable, if not smaller, to all the other surrounding businesses..

Given the location of Petsmart, and the nature of this business, we respectfully request that the CharterTownship of Union grant this variance to PetSmart. This determination is fair and proper on the part ofthe Township as the request comports with the nature and character of the area. Properly sized andplaced signage is a key success factor in any business allowing that business to contribute to the wellbeing of any vibrant community.

Therefore, kindly consider our request to allow the proposed exterior signage as presented by ouraccompanying documentation. Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter.

Respectfully,

Kieffer & Co., Inc.

To Whom It May Concern;

I am Submitting a variance request on behalf of Firstbank. Some time ago we put in a sign which yourefer to as a directional sign at the corner of Lincoln and McDonald’s property. This comes in to the backside of Firstbank. At that time it was brought to our attention that directional signs must not be biggerthan 4 square feet. We are kindly seeking reconsideration to increase the sign to approximately 4 x 6. Asyou can see from the attached photo the sign is barely noticeable. I feel as though if the sign were morevisible the drive would certainly be more utilized. It is our hope that in doing so it would not only make itmore convenient to customers but would also direct some traffic flow from M20. Often times it can getbacked up out front with large semi trucks flowing through. At times customers actually pull in and outin the same direction. Within time customers would realize there is another outlet and create and muchsafer traffic flow. Thank you for your time and consideration to the matter.

Sinc: ely,
