Board Of Zoning Appeals 8/24/2026

The City of Punta Gorda Board of Zoning Appeals held a quasi-judicial public hearing on August 24, 2026, primarily to consider a variance request related to signage at 10021 Burnt Store Road. The applicant, Daniel C. Cranny of Signs by Cranny, sought approval for the location of a wall sign for Burnt Store Dental Care, which did not comply with current land development regulations due to the building's orientation and site layout. After reviewing the eight approval criteria, the board found the variance justified given the unique site circumstances and non-conforming commercial plaza layout. The board voted to recommend approval of the variance based on the evidence and testimony presented. No other procurement or budget matters were discussed during the meeting.
