The Board of Adjustment approved a sign variance on July 7 allowing Moffett Road Baptist Church to replace a manual reader board with a double‑faced electronic message center and lit cabinet in an R‑1 district.

Jennifer Jackson presented the request on behalf of the church and said the existing sign is nearly 60 feet back from the right of way and that the proposed sign will automatically dim at night. Jackson noted a precedent across the street: "Forest Hill Church of God ... they have a message center. It is much larger than the one we are proposing." She told the board the sign would be used to advertise church events and service times and that the church has been in the community for more than 80 years.

Board members reviewed the zoning map and confirmed that the nearest occupied R‑1 property in the notification radius is a parking lot owned by the church; the board found no nearby residential uses that would be affected by the digital sign under the staff's radius analysis. A motion to approve the application subject to findings of fact was made, seconded and carried.

Staff will include findings of fact and any permit conditions in the case file; the board recorded no public opposition during the hearing.
