~ity of <br /> <br />iver <br /> FROM: <br /> <br />INFORMATION <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />SUBJECT: <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br /> MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL <br /> <br /> BUILDING AND ZONING <br /> ADMINISTRATOR, STEPHEN <br /> ROHLF 5'~ <br /> <br /> JULY 14, 1997 <br /> <br /> NONCONFORMING <br /> BILLBOARDS <br /> <br />During the recent storm, about a dozen billboards along east Highway 10 <br />received damage. Some of the damaged signs are non-conforming as they are <br />spaced closer than 1,200 feet from the next billboard. According to city <br />ordinance, the city is not required to allow non-conforming signs that are <br />damaged by more than 50% to be replaced. This affects approximately eight <br />of the signs in question. <br /> <br />Staff does not plan to issue permits for reconstruction of these signs and <br />anticipates the sign companies fighting the city on this issue. Please advise <br />staff if we are pursuing a course of action you do not agree with. <br /> <br /> \\elkriver\sysXshrdocXb&z\stever\billbord.doc <br /> <br />13065 Orono Parkway · P.O.
