<br />Commissioner Holewa stated he wants the businesses to do well and to give them a <br />chance to advertise, but felt the permitted signs could be tacky. <br /> <br />City Planner Beekman stated one of the concerns is that Staff was seeing signs put up <br />before that were illegal and were removed by the City; the owners came forward and <br />asked how they could legally advertise and this is an attempt to accommodate their <br />request on a temporary basis. <br /> <br />Chair Larson stated there are plans to erect a monument sign within the regulations of the <br />ordinance when the property is redeveloped. He added he felt this was a viable means of <br />allowing advertising that is not too intrusive. <br /> <br />Commissioner Zimmerman concurred and stated illegal signs have been used in the past <br />and if the City can help benefit the business owners by allowing them to have an A-frame <br />sign placed by the road so their business is better recognized, itwas the least the City <br />could do to help them out. <br /> <br />The motion carried 4-1. Commissioner Holewa opposed. <br /> <br />This Planning Case will be reviewed at the Monday, May 11, 2009, City Council <br />meeting. <br />
