Board of Zoning Appeals
Board to hear two sign variance requests at Sept. 22 meeting
The Oxford Board of Zoning Appeals will hold a regular meeting to approve prior minutes and hear two new variance requests related to signage. Both requests seek exceptions to the city's sign code, and the board will take sworn testimony before deciding. The meeting is quasi-judicial, so public comment is not treated as testimony.
- BZA-2026-04: variance to allow more than two wall signs at 5475 College Corner Pike (Gillman Home Center)
- BZA-2026-05: variances for wall sign height over 3 feet and direct illumination at 121 E High Street (Skipper's Pub and Top Deck)
- Approval of August 25, 2026 meeting minutes
