A variance from the strict application of the provisions of this chapter may be granted by the Board of Zoning and Building Appeals in regard to an existing nonconforming sign or a new sign to be installed, erected, constructed or painted, if the Board finds that requiring strict compliance with the provisions of the variance from the provisions of this chapter will not depreciate or damage neighboring property, will not create a safety hazard and will not be contrary to the purposes of this chapter. The procedure for applying for variance and the hearing therein shall be the same as in cases involving zoning variances.
