Board of Adjustment Meeting · 2026-06-17 · agenda_packet
The City of Cocoa Board of Adjustment is meeting on June 17, 2026. Two new business items are on the agenda related to 1540 Clearlake Rd. Item 1 (PZ26-00700002) is a signage waiver request for ModWash LLC to increase the number of attached signs from one to five and the allowable area from 20% to 27.7%. Item 2 (PZ26-00800004) is a signage variance for the same property. The waiver request for ModWash LLC at 1540 Clearlake Rd was considered. The applicant, ModWash LLC, represented by A Superior Sign, Inc., sought to increase the number of attached signs from one to five and the allowable area from 20% to 27.7%. The property is located at 1540 Clearlake Road, Cocoa, FL 32922, with Parcel ID 24-36-20-27-*-1.01. The waiver was analyzed based on unique property conditions, practical difficulties, economic impact, public safety, property values, and harmony with the comprehensive plan. Staff recommended approval with conditions, including limiting sign illumination to business hours due to adjacency to residential property. Public comment included an inquiry from Eastern Florida State College regarding sign types, which was resolved. No objections were formally raised.
