_________________________________________________________________________________________ <br />City of Arden Hills <br />Planning Commission Meeting for February 7, 2018 <br />P:\Planning\Planning Cases\2017\PC 17-004 - Sign Code Amendment\Memos_Reports_17-004 <br /> <br />Page 7 of 8 <br /> <br />General Prohibitions <br />The City could retain the current prohibitions on any dynamic display sign that includes video <br />display, fluctuating light intensity, flashing, blinking, or any other technology that creates the <br />illusion of movement. <br /> <br /> <br />Projecting Signs <br /> <br />The Sign Code currently does not permit projecting signs. The TCAAP Redevelopment Code <br />allows for projecting signs that extend up to six feet from the building wall they are attached to <br />or 50 percent of the width of the public sidewalk, whichever is less. If the City chooses to allow <br />projecting signs in areas outside of TCAAP, staff would not recommend adopting these same <br />dimensions given the difference in the type of development that is expected on TCAAP. <br /> <br />Staff would recommend considering adopting regulations similar to Roseville, which allows for <br />projecting signs that extend up to 30 inches from the building wall. Staff would recommend that <br />a projecting sign be counted towards the overall amount of wall signage permitted for a property. <br /> <br /> <br />Temporary Signs <br /> <br />For temporary signage, Arden Hills allows property owners to install up to one-half of the area <br />allowed for a permanent wall or freestanding sign. Temporary signs may be displayed on three <br />occasions per calendar year, with a maximum of 10 days each time. The three occasions may <br />also be combined for one 30-day period. <br /> <br />General Temporary Signs <br />Staff would recommend simplifying the allowed temporary signage area to 32 square feet for <br />businesses. Temporary signs must follow the height limit established for the sign district that the <br />property is located in. Staff would also recommend changing the allowed display length to up to <br />four occasions per year with a maximum of 14 days on each occasion. <br /> <br />Grand Opening & Leasing Signs <br />New businesses with a grand opening and buildings with vacant space are eligible for temporary <br />signage. For grand openings, a sign may be in place for up to 30 days. Leasing signs may stay in <br />place until seven days after a space is leased. Staff would not recommend any changes to the <br />display length for these temporary signs. Staff would recommend that both grand opening and <br />leasing signs be limited to 32 square feet. Property owners would still be limited to one <br />temporary sign at a time. <br /> <br />Inflatables and Banners <br />The Sign Code currently lists streamers, banners, balloons, and inflatables as types of temporary <br />signs that are regulated by the temporary on-premise sign requirements.
