Zoning board approves electronic sign for Whiskey Tavern on Union Avenue
Summary
A request for an electronic message sign at 1258 Union Avenue (Whiskey Tavern) was approved by the zoning board; the applicant said the sign would follow the same brightness and timing constraints as other electronic signs in town.
The Zoning Board granted a variance to allow an electronic message board at 1258 Union Avenue for the Whiskey Tavern. Applicant Amber Fudge told the board the sign would comply with municipal limits on brightness, would not flash and would follow the same operational rules used elsewhere along the corridor.
Board members evaluated the proposal in the context of recent approvals for other electronic signs and noted that the zoning ordinance contains performance standards designed to limit nighttime glare and reduce driver distraction. With those conditions in place, the board approved the variance by voice vote.
