AutoZone recently received approval from the Land Use Control Board to increase the sign height of their planned store at the corner of Kirby Parkway and KirbyGate Blvd from 10 feet to 25 feet. Despite objections by KSANA and Kirby Trace Neighborhood Associations, the LUCB approved an amended request to allow a sign height of 18 feet.

KSANA appealed that decision to the City Council. On February 7th KSANA president Suzanne White spoke to the council, first in committee and later in the full council meeting, on behalf of the association. District 2 Councilman Frank Colvett supported our position and encouraged his fellow council members to do the same.

Verdict: WE WON!! AutoZone’s sign height is limited to 10 feet.
