[Neighbors] Fwd: 3715 Silver Ave SE - City on the Hill Church

[Greg Weirs]

Neighbors,
We received a request for a variance regarding a sign at City on a Hill
Church, see below.

Our usual process is to discuss variance requests with the applicants at an
Urban Planning Committee meeting or facilitated meeting, and then decide to
support or oppose the request at the Board meeting immediately before the
Zoning Hearing Examiner (ZHE) hearing.

However, in this case we missed that it was a request for a variance. (Usually
signs are permit requests that are administrative and don't have hearing.) So,
we didn't invite the applicants to a committee meeting, and our next Board
meeting will be after the ZHE hearing date (September 16th). We have
decided not to take a position on the request.

If you are interested in learning about the proposed sign, please contact
the applicant, and if you are interested in giving input to the ZHE
regarding the variance, please see the information on these city web pages:

   -
   https://www.cabq.gov/planning/boards-commissions/zoning-hearing-examiner

   - https://www.cabq.gov/planning/documents/2025-zhe-calendar-final.pdf

Note that the deadline for written evidence is Sept. 10th, or you can speak
at the hearing on Zoom on September 16th.

Greg
