The Variance Board requested the staff to clarify the resolution with appropriate sizes, setbacks and actual variances requested. Tim Prinzen, Welsh Companies, explained that the property owners support the staff report and with the correction to the pylon sign with setback from the storm water pond at Lincoln and County Road C. Member Mulder asked if the monument signs (especially Lincoln Drive) may create sight line problems. A more appropriate location would be the south side of the entry or mid-point between the entries. The pylon placement is acceptable. Tim Prinzen explained the landscaping and tree visual challenge to sign along the frontage. Member Mulder asked if the County Road C monument sign should be moved further west. Byerlys has south and east wall signage and will not be on the monument sign. Member Doherty expressed concern regarding the two signs on County Road C, but found it acceptable with moving the monument sign further west. Member Boerigter said the signage size may be a problem if not corrected for traffic sight line issues. http://www.ci.roseville.mn.us/council/variance/minutes/2004/vb1201.htm5/1/2006
