The Planning and Zoning Commission met on Wednesday, February 18, 2026 at 6:00 PM in Council Chambers. The commission reviewed three business items: a signage request for a new Subaru dealership, a right-of-way dedication plat for the Chick-fil-A project at Arlington Ridge, and a conditional use permit for a storage and commercial development on South Main Street (SELU Commercial Development). Public testimony was extensive on the SELU project, with residents expressing strong opposition. All items were approved with specific conditions.
I should say good evening, everyone. Call to order the City of Green Planning and Zoning Commission meeting for Wednesday, February 18th, 2026. Please stand for the Pledge of Allegiance. Roll call. Ms. Anderson. Here, Mr. Birch. Here. Mr. Bishman? Here. Ms. Chadsee is absent. Mr. Daniels? Here. Mr. Ms. Thrasher. Here. Also present our student representatives Jack Pickett and Chris Zayo and our council liaison, Jeff Noble. Okay. Let's dive right into it. Our first business item is 26-04. Um, Sierra Subaru. Would a representative please come up? Madam Chair, if I could for a minute. Uh Sarah is a client of mine. I sold them this property, so I'm gonna have to recuse myself from this. Thank you. Okay. Uh please state your name and address for the record and tell us about your project. Sure. And you can also use the microphone, the handheld if you would like. Um my name's Tom Yankovich. I'm with Ellett Sign Company at 3041 East Waterloo Road, Akron, Ohio 44312. Uh tonight I'm representing um Sierra Sarah uh Subaru. They have a new development, and they uh are located at 1089 Interstate Parkway. Um we're asking for your approval for one double face ground sign. It's a denocation ground sign, it's uh face of four foot four inch high by seven foot ten inch wide. Uh it's double faced, it's uh fabricated of a heavy gauge aluminum. The faces are curved or radius. Uh it's a brand standard of the Subaru dealership. Uh it has routed copy, and it has also uh push-through copy for the Subaru, and then the logo is also a bubble or a vacuum form type face. When it illuminates at night, it only illuminates copy copy and logo only. And uh again, it should not be um too bright because of that application of the light. The sign is located right at the entrance uh at the end of the call-de-sac there. It's a 10-foot setback, uh, which is per the regulations. It has good visibility as you're coming down interstate parkway, and um there seems to be no interference um or you know um any type of visibility obstruction.
