The Board of Zoning and Building Appeals may, in specific cases, vary or permit exceptions to any of the provisions of this Chapter, provided, however, that the Board finds that such variance or exception will not violate the spirit or intent of this Chapter. When reviewing the appropriateness of such deviation from the regulations herein, the Board shall approve such sign only when it determines that:
(a) The proposed sign is of such size and scale to be appropriate for the size of the building and the proportion of the building (panel, fascia, wall, etc.) on which the sign will be placed.
(b) The proposed sign is of the minimum relief necessary to assure it is legible to the intended viewers.
(c) The additional sign, the additional sign area, the alternative location that is proposed, and/or the design of the proposed sign will not adversely impact the adjacent residential areas or, otherwise, compromise any other public interests.
