SGN2013-0017 — 120-foot flag pole in conjunction with existing motor vehicle dealership (Clay Cooley Hyundai) in Rockwall, TX
This case seeks approval for a 120-foot flag pole at an existing motor vehicle dealership in a Light Industrial zone, which requires a Specific Use Permit since the standard height limit is 60 feet. The Planning and Zoning Commission voted 5-1 to recommend denial, citing concerns that no other properties in the IH-30 corridor exceed the 60-foot height limit. City Council approval will require a three-fourths supermajority vote due to the Commission's denial recommendation.
