ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION – January 9, 2019 4 <br /> <br />Mr. Taaffe reviewed the location for the new signage and reported this would be approved by <br />the City. <br /> <br />Commissioner Lambeth asked if the directional signs would be illuminated. <br /> <br />Mr. Taaffe commented these signs would not be illuminated. He noted that the majority of its <br />visitors were on the campus during the day time hours. <br /> <br />Commissioner Jones stated he supported the proposed signage and believed it would fit nicely <br />into the corporate campus. <br /> <br />Chair Gehrig agreed the signs were proportionate to the corporate campus and would fit into the <br />site well. <br /> <br />Commissioner Jones moved and Commissioner Lambeth seconded a motion to recommend <br />approval of Planning Case 18-027 for a Site Plan Review – Sign Standard Adjustment for <br />Land O’Lakes at 4001 Lexington Avenue North based on the findings of fact and the <br />submitted plans, as amended by the eight (8) conditions in the January 9, 2019, report to <br />the Planning Commission. The motion carried unanimously (4-0). <br /> <br />UNFINISHED AND NEW BUSINESS <br /> <br />None. <br /> <br />REPORTS <br /> <br />A.
