ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION-SEPTEMBER 21, 2009 13 ID. Shoreland Management Ordinance Worksession (continued) City Planner Beekman stated that staff would like to tie together increase impermeable surfaces to shoreline protection and that the details would need to be filled in. It was the consensus of the Council to direct staff to bring the Shoreland Management Ordinance back to the Planning Commission for their recommendation and then be brought back to the Council in a worksession meeting. E. Draft Revised Traffic Sign Policy/Dellview Glenview Intersection Update Public Works Director Hoag presented the City Council with information on a revised traffic sign policy. He reviewed the current sign placement request used by the City. There were five sign classifications at this time. Discussion ensued regarding the sign policy and if this policy should be handed out to the residents. Mayor Harpstead suggested the language read "street sign request", to reduce the confusion with any other sign ordinance in the City. Councilmember Holmes felt that not enough information was provided on when traffic signs were warranted. Mayor Harpstead indicated he would like to see an informational sheet provided to the homeowners of what the warrants are, but that the final discretion was left up to the Council. Councilmember McClung stated he would like to review the City of Roseville's guidelines. Councilmember Holmes suggested that the information to the public be less than what is written within the policy. Public Works Director Hoag noted there were clear cut guidelines for stop signs, but questioned how the City would further regulate no parking on the various streets throughout the City with some being state aid streets. He indicated there were a lot of gray areas throughout the sign regulations.
