ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION - FEBRUARY 2, 2005 14 sponsorship banners (facing the field) along the north side ofthe football/track perimeter . fence, scoreboard signage, and field naming signage on the press box or an entrance gate. Chair Sand stated he also wanted some language in subdivision 5 added to read: Signage shall not restrict the viewing area of the people sitting in the stands. Mr. Hellegers replied that language could be included. Commissioner Holmes asked if the signs would be taken down after every game. She stated she would prefer if they be taken down. Mr. Nick Temali, Mounds View School District, replied their stadium had a game or event every night of the week, so to take banners down daily would be a burden to turn around and put them up again a few hours later. He stated they liked the language where they would take them in at the end of the fall season and be brought back out again in the spring for the spring events. Chair Sand asked if they wanted this limited to only educational institutions and if so they should say educational institutions. Commissioner Larson noted he believed they should limit this to the three educational institutions (Mounds View High School, Northwestern College, and Bethel College) noting his concern that there could be advertising at Valentines Elementary if they said educational institution. Chair Sand requested staff obtain the City's attorney opinion to determine if the City was allowed to limit the type of educational institution where signage would be permitted. . REPORTS A.
