tattoo shop at 1701 Doyle Road.
Matthew West, Planning Manager, presented a Minor Conditional Use request for
Resolution No. 2025-69. He provided background on the property, detailed maps, aerials,
surveys, and images of the shopping center. He also shared the proposed tattoo shop
hours and staff’s recommendation for the Planning and Zoning Board to approve the
request.
Discussion focused on signage and window displays for the business. Mr. West noted that
the City has addressed similar signage issues before, particularly on Deltona Boulevard,
explained how the Board could regulate the tattoo shop’s signage and usage, and added
that accessibility was also discussed.
Brianna Pierson, 131 Matanzas Road, DeBary, FL , the business owner and operator for
the past five (5) years, spoke in favor of the proposed business. She emphasized her
strong commitment to community values and explained that her shop caters to women
seeking a space where their voices are heard and supported. She expressed confidence
that the business would bring positive attention and clients from across the country, helping
boost the local economy.
Operating hours were suggested from 9 AM to 10 PM, and the elimination of neon signage
was recommended due to an existing neon sign at a nearby gas station.
Robby Ball, 755 St Road, stated he was property owner, and explained the landscaping
would be updated, but he need to wait due to budgeting. Discussion on allowing 3-4 months
to have the landscape updated occurred.
Hodges Linda,1690 Panama Ct., Deltona, FL , expressed concerns about the location of
the tattoo shop in relation to nearby food preparation areas. She raised concerns regarding
potential increased traffic, noise, and unwanted public access through the alleyway.
Discussion occurred on the walls being separated, ensuring no shared space between the
pizza shop and tattoo shop. Mr. West reviewed the future land use map and clarified that
the alleyway will not be open to public access.
