PROJECT DESCRIPTION / BACKGROUND:

Home Away From Home daycare center (FKA: Kindercare) was approved by City Commission on August 4, 1999. AEAHA LLC. acquired the property in late 2019. AEAHA LLC. spent the last year updating both the internal buildout of the building as well as making repairs to the exterior. A color change to the building (Off White and Tan colors) was approved administratively in 2020 as the color closely matched certain colors from the nearby Chapel Trail Plaza.

No other site modifications are being proposed at this time.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff has reviewed the proposed changes and finds that the proposal meets code requirements. Staff therefore recommends approval of this application subject to the applicant obtaining all necessary permits for construction of these signs.
