The Effingham City Zoning Board of Appeals has granted a variance for a larger sign at a local motel.

The Best Western Delta Inn is located at 1509 Hampton Drive. The location was the former Hampton Inn, but that has been replaced by the Hampton Inn and Suites on Keller Drive at Avenue of Mid America.

The developers were granted permission to add 280 square feet in signage to the 200 square foot sign now at the Hampton Drive location. The total of 480 square feet in signage exceeds the permitted 300 square feet in signage without the variance.
