Ms. Golombek said there was a banner sign on the building and wanted to know if that
would need to be taken down. Director Askew said they would have to take that one
down. Mr. Gear asked if the corporate entity has had the location all the way through.
Director Askew said she did not know the answer to that question. Ms. Golombek asked
if they were going to put up the exact same sign and was it a money issue. Director
Askew said they would be paying for a new sign and it would be similar with a maximum

of 200 square feet. Ms. Lanier asked if there was a sketch of what it would look like
with the 100 square feet sign. Director Askew said they did not supply anything like
that.
APPLICANT REPORT: The applicant wasn't present for questioning but they had
supplied a letter explaining the history and why the sign was taken down.
PUBLIC COMMENT: Chair Hansen opened the floor to public comment. There were
no public comments.
BOARD DISCUSSION: Ms. Golombek asked what the size of the temporary sign was.
Director Askew said she did not know. Chair Hansen said it was probably less than half
the size of the original. Mr. Gear said a 100 square foot sign at 200 feet would be the
same as a 200 square foot sign at 400 feet from the street. Chair Hansen said that he
didn't think the City would have very many instances of a sign being 400 feet off the
road. He didn't think that they would be opening Pandora's box by saying since they are
400 feet off the road it's not a bad size for the sign. Chair Hansen said he would like to
see the variance approved due to being 400 feet off the road. Ms. Lanier agreed with
Chair Hansen. She would have liked to speak with the applicant.
MOTION: To APPROVE ZVAR22-0019 based on condition #4 (Onerous effect of
regulations enacted after platting or after development of the property or after construction of
improvement upon the property).

Ms. Farford asked if they would be able to consume alcohol outside. Director Askew
said there is very little space outside of the business for consumption. Chair Hansen
clarified that his understanding was that they could serve alcohol and sell alcohol to be
taken off site but they can't sell alcohol to be consumed on sight. Director Askew said
the state statutes allows you to give alcohol away for free but to sell it by the glass then
it would require a use-by-exception. Ms. Golombek asked if it was just beer and wine.
Director Askew said she believed so but the Board should clarify that with the Applicant.
APPLICANT REPORT: Haley Guiette introduced herself as the owner of Be-In Bridal
Studio. She said the request was only for beer and wine. Ms. Guiette said no sale for
off-premise consumption. She said she works by appointment only and would like the
opportunity to serve champagne and also support the local breweries in Jacksonville.
Ms. Guiette said that some of her customers want a more expensive bottle and she would
like to provide that to elevate their experience as they shop.
Ms. Golombek asked if they would be able to bring alcohol in to drink. Director Askew
said she thought that was a separate license. Ms. Golombek asked if she would be
changing her studio hours. Ms. Guiette said it will always be by appointment only. She
said she will offer her brides a pre-appointment brunch that could be catered. Ms.
Golombek asked what her latest appointment was. Ms. Guiette said a night appointment
might last to roughly 9 or 10 p.m.
PUBLIC COMMENT: Chair Hansen opened the floor to public comment. There were
no public comments.
BOARD DISCUSSION: Ms. Lanier said that the Board has given use-by-exceptions
to everything from barber shops to cigar shops and brides should be right up there. She
was willing to make a motion.
MOTION: To APPROVE UBEX22-0009 due to it being consistent with the Comprehensive
Plan #1 and #3. Condition added that consumption be limited to 11:00 p.m.
Motion: Linda Lanier
Second: Jeff Haynie
Ms. Farford asked that consumption be limited to inside. Ms. Lanier accepted that as a friendly
amendment and it was included in the motion. Ms. Golombek asked it a condition could be
added to limit consumption to 11:00 p.m. Chair Hansen didn't want to put a restriction on the
request. Mr. Haynie said his understanding is that if there are complaints in the future it can be
addressed later. Director Askew said if a condition limiting time was added and there were
complaints then they could use the Code Enforcement route.
A vote was taken for the condition that consumption would only be allowed inside the studio.
The vote was unanimous to approve.
A vote was taken for the condition to limit consumption to 11:00 p.m. The vote was 1-5 in favor
(Ms. Golombek was the yes vote). This condition was denied.
