REQUESTS
Pursuant to Section §265-63.1 of the City of Sunny Isles Beach Land Development
Regulations, the Applicant is requesting approval of a sign variance to increase the
permitted wall sign area to approximately 96.4 square feet, whereas a maximum of 28.5
square feet is permitted pursuant to Section §265-56(B)(3).
ZONING REVIEW
The following is a review of the relevant Land Development Regulations for installation of
the proposed wall sign facing Collins Ave. The plans reviewed are entitled "Dryeco/front
& back -lit channel letter" by Miami Signs, stamped received March 31, 2026, consisting
of two (2) sheets.
The proposed wall sign facing Collins Avenue requires a variance from the sign ordinance
to increase the permitted wall sign area. Pursuant to Code Sec. 265-56.B.(3), the
maximum permitted wall sign area for establishments with up to 200 feet of frontage on
a single elevation is one (1) square foot per lineal foot of tenant frontage, not to exceed
Page 2 of 7
44
April 16, 2026
PZ2026-04
thirty-five (35) square feet. For establishments with more than 200 feet of frontage, the
maximum permitted wall sign area is one (1) square foot per lineal foot of tenant frontage,
not to exceed seventy-five (75) square feet. As the subject tenant frontage is 28.5 linear
feet, the maximum permitted wall sign area is 28.5 square feet. The business has an
existing wall sign that is 12.19 square feet in size. The proposed 96.4 square foot sign
exceeds the permitted area and requires a variance.
The following are the standards of review for sign ordinance variances, from code Sec.
265-63.1:
(1) The variance is not contrary to the public interest,
(2) Special conditions and circumstances do not result from actions of the applicant,
(3) A literal enforcement of the provisions of this chapter may result in unnecessary
hardship.
V. FINAL ANALYSIS
The business has an existing 12.19 square foot wall sign on the ground floor fagade,
which the business owner would like to remove and install a new 96.4 square foot wall
sign on the upper parapet wall. The intent of the requested increase in sign area is to
improve visibility and business identification. The business is located along Collins
Avenue and visibility of the storefront has been reduced due to the installation of a bus
stop shelter directly in front of the business, which limits visibility to passing motorists and
pedestrians. Below are photos of the existing condition:
Existing Sign —facing Collins Ave.
Page 3 of 7
45
April 16, 2026
PZ2026-04
The requested variance satisfies some, but not all, of the applicable review criteria. The
limited visibility of the existing sign is a special condition that was not created by the
Applicant. Additionally, the requested variance is not contrary to the public interest.
However, literal enforcement of the sign regulations would not result in unnecessary
hardship, as the business could install a wall sign that is compliant in size and continue
to operate in a reasonable manner under the requirements. Below is a rendering of the
proposed sign:
Proposed Sign —facing Collins Ave.
Staff has compiled the relevant facts related to the requested sign ordinance variance
and recommends that the application be presented to the City Commission for
consideration.

PLANNING & ZONING DEFT.
Following discussions with Planning staff, we are submitting this revised request to clarify and simplify the
scope of our application.
Dryeco Garment Care is requesting a variance solely for the existing front storefront sign located at
18660 Collins Avenue, Suite 100. We are not requesting any site plan modification and we are
withdrawing the request for an additional wall sign on the south side of the building.
The purpose of this request is to allow for a modest increase in the size of the existing front -facing sign so
that the full business identification, including the words "Eco Dry Cleaner," can be clearly legible to
passing traffic along Collins Avenue. The proposed sign dimensions are approximately 178 inches in
width by 78 inches in height, totaling approximately 96.4 square feet of sign area.
Historically, the storefront had greater visibility from the roadway. However, following the installation of a
bus stop shelter directly in front of the property, visibility of the storefront has been significantly reduced.
As a result, it has become difficult for drivers to identify both the business and the service offered at this
location.
We frequently receive feedback from customers who were unaware that a dry cleaner operates at this
location until they discovered us online or noticed the business while visiting neighboring tenants.
The requested signage reflects our registered trademark, which includes both the Dryeco name and the
"Eco Dry Cleaner" designation as part of a single integrated mark. At the currently permitted sign size, the
lettering for "Eco Dry Cleaner" would be too small to be effectively read by passing motorists, which would
reduce the clarity of the service being offered and diminish the effectiveness of the sign.
The requested increase in sign area is intended only to ensure that the full mark remains legible and that
the nature of the business is clearly communicated to the public.
This request is not intended to create excessive signage, but rather to restore reasonable visibility for the
business and allow the storefront to function as originally intended prior to the installation of the bus
shelter.
Dryeco is committed to maintaining a clean, professional storefront that is consistent with the character of
the surrounding area. We respectfully request the City's consideration of this variance.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Martin Lopez
Manager
