egular City C®uncil eeta~g ®nday,lVlay Z 1, 2007 Page 14 Councilmember Roe noted that, during his review of the regulations at the Planning Commission level as a former Commissioner, he deter- mined that the first sentence defined the whole section; however con- curred that the last sentence needed to be clarified as to defining whether a sign is permanently or temporarily attached, when initially defined as a mobile sign. Considerable discussion ensued regarding language that would clarify the intent for a mobile sign, excluding initial transportation from the factory to the installation site. Councilmember Pust suggested striking "permanently," from the lan- guage. Ihlan moved, Klausing seconded, striking "permanently" from the language nn page 5, line 5, Section 2, -Mobile Sign," of the clean draft. Roll Call Ayes: Roe; Kough; Ihlan; Pust and Klausing. Nays: None. Mayor Klausing clarified that, when drafting legislation, the City Council, as the policy-setting body, reserved the right to amend lan- guage once an ordinance was put into practice and refinement was in- dicated. Councilmember Ihlan referenced the redline version, page 5, line 30, seeking to incorporate the stricken language back into the final ver- sion related to vehicles used for advertising purposes when parked and visible from a public right-of--way, other than for normal day-to-day operation if working at that site. Discussion ensued regarding how to stipulate and enforce vehicles used for business owners for use at work, but driven back and forth to work on a daily basis and parked at their residence versus deliberate parking for advertising purposes; businesses with trucks and trailers that have signage on them and cumbersome enforcement scenarios.
