The Board of Appeals may issue a special permit allowing more than the number of signs herein permitted and/or for signs of a larger size, but not taller than herein permitted, provided
that:
(1) Signs are located only where they are otherwise permitted in the district; and
(2) The Board of Appeals determines that the architecture of the building, the location of the building or the land or nature of the use being made of the building or land is such that
additional signs or signs of a larger size would not detract from the character of the neighborhood and should be permitted in the public interest. Additional ground signs shall only
be approved if there are exceptional circumstances to warrant their approval and if all efforts are undertaken to keep additional ground signs as small and low as possible.
(3) The Board of Appeals specifies in the permit the exact sign permitted, the size and location of the sign or signs, and, if applicable, imposes other restrictions. Any change in said
signs requires a new or revised special permit unless the special permit specifies what types of changes are allowed.
