<br />Examples: <br /> <br />Joe Simpson owns an accounting office and is a big sports fan. Because he bet the Gophers <br />would win the Big Ten Football title last year (and they didn't), he must fly the red Badger flag <br />for one year. He proposes, under the new ordinance, to fly the Badger and Packer fan flags and a <br />U.S. flag on separate poles in front of his office. The flags would be permitted. <br /> <br />Stan's car sales operation proposes flying 32 American, Japanese, Korean, and German flags <br />around his site, with the proper setback, honoring the workers and countries. . . .he does not need a <br />permit because the flags carry no commercial message. <br /> <br />Mary Jones owns a pet store and has been asked to take on a new line offish food. The <br />manufacturer has offered to pay for a new flag and bright orange flagpole, if she will fly the <br />corporate symbol- a fat smiling carp and the words "Fishy Farms Foods". ... Mary can fly the <br />flag but must count the flag and its commercial message as part of the total allowable signage on <br />her building. <br /> <br />If Mary wished to distribute Fishy Foods from her home and oversized garage, and flew such a <br />commercial flag at her residence, a flag/sign permit would not be issued because she proposes a <br />commercial venture in a residential zone. <br /> <br />Arnie Gogan is adamant! The State Legislature cannot pass a bill creating a suburban light rail <br />tunnel under his commercial property. On his business flagpole he flies a new flag expressing his <br />feelings, "Legislative Shaft Prohibited Here". It is a non-commercial message allowed on the <br />flag. The flag would be permitted. <br /> <br />Planning File #3190 (Sign Ordinance - Flag) RCA 04/24/00 4 <br />
