<br />- <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION - OCTOBER 3, 2001 <br /> <br />7 <br /> <br />.Commissioner Zimmerman pointed out that if the changes were made as suggested by <br />staff, iliere were going to be a lot of nonconforming signs in the City that would need to <br />be grandfathered in until the signs were changed. <br /> <br />Councilmember Aplikowski asked on page 3, number 5, last sentence why the sign could <br />not have a logo message on it. Mr. Cronin stated this would be advertising for the <br />business. They could put the business name on the sign, but not an advertising logo. <br /> <br />Commissioner Sand stated he did not see why logos would be a problem. Commissioner <br />Galatowitsch replied it would allow uniformity. <br /> <br />Mr. Cronin replied this was to limit any abuses of advertising for businesses. <br /> <br />Chair Baker closed the public hearing at 9:34 p.m. <br /> <br />Chair Baker asked if there was any way lighted signs could be dimmed in the evenings. <br />Mr. Cronin replied this happened due to the sign clocks getting out of sync. He would <br />recommend the signs be primarily public service (time and temperature) and limit it to <br />25% size of the sign. <br /> <br />Commissioner Sand asked why they did not limit the wattage of lit signs. Mr. Cronin <br />stated if the City wanted this addition, it would be possible and he would locate the <br />standard for this type of lighting. <br /> <br />Commissioner Sand stated he was sympathetic to the suggestions made by staff limiting <br />the sign size, but he stated he was still opposed to tall signs. He stated he was opposed to <br />28 feet in height on District 4. He recommended 18 or 20 feet. He pointed out various <br />typographical errors on the report and requested those errors be corrected. <br /> <br />Commissioner Galatowitsch stated she agreed to bring the sign height down to 20 feet in <br />District 4. <br /> <br />Chair Baker asked if they change the square footage to 80 square feet, that should bring <br />down the height of the sign. Mr. Cronin agreed. He stated they could go to 20 feet if <br />they wanted. <br /> <br />After discussion, the Commission agreed to a 22-foot height. <br /> <br />Councilmember Sand moved, seconded by Councilmember Pakulski to extend the <br />meeting time past 10:00 p.m. <br /> <br />The motion carried (5-1). (Commissioner Zimmerman Voting Nay) <br /> <br />Commissioner Pakulski moved, seconded by Commissioner Galatowitsch, to recommend <br />approval of Planning Case #01-23, City of Arden Hills, Sign Ordinance with the <br />modifications recommended by staffregarding sign size for Districts 4, 5, and 6; 22 feet <br />for the sign height for District 4; the typographical errors be corrected; along with the <br />other suggestions made by the Commission. <br />
