He said that this requires two variances; one for the sign location in the side yard and one for the minimum side yard setback for the sign. Chairman Neuer asked Mr. Grygiel if this would be an expansion of a non-conforming use regarding the number of signs on this property; he said he would have to check the township ordinance to see if there is a limited number of signs allowed.
