City Council Minutes Page 6 <br /> October 6,2014 <br /> Councilmember Dietz stated he was opposed at first because of the allowance of <br /> hunting but noted the Council wanted to preserve the land. He stated he has <br /> confidence in the DNR to approve a safe hunting plan and he is in favor of the <br /> motion in order to preserve this land. <br /> Motion carried 4-1. Councilmember Motin opposed. <br /> Moved by Councilmember Wilson and seconded by Councilmember Burandt <br /> that the park land would be closed to all uses, including hunting, until such <br /> time as a plan for its uses are developed by the proposed committee, adopted <br /> by Council, and approved by the DNR. <br /> Councilmember Motin clarified if this motion meant the park would be closed for <br /> people walking on the property. <br /> Attorney Beck stated yes. <br /> Motion carried 5-0. <br /> 8.2 Wayfinding Signage Program <br /> Ms. Gardner presented the staff report. <br /> Councilmember Motin asked for clarification on why the fact-finding group <br /> preferred a rendition of the city logo. <br /> Ms. Gardner stated the city has two powerful logos that tend to compete with each <br /> other and the city's brand plan outlines how they can be used together. She also <br /> noted that the logo could change over time and there are currently renditions of the <br /> old city logo around the community. She stated the fact-finding group wanted the <br /> logo to be more subtle and come through in a more artistic way. <br /> Councilmember Motin questioned the cost of the signage. <br /> Ms. Gardner stated the financial numbers would come back to Council at a later <br /> date. She reviewed funds already programed for signage in the Capital Improvement <br /> Plan and the Economic Development budgets. <br /> Mayor Dietz stated he doesn't understand why the city can't use more of what it has, <br /> such as utilizing the elk, the river,waves in Option 1. He stated Option 2 doesn't <br /> look like elk horns, and he would prefer to see an elk head. He expressed concern <br /> with the cost of the signage and where the funding would come from. <br /> Ms. Allard noted as part of the Beautification Goal in the city's Visioning Plan there <br /> is already funding set up in the Capital Improvement Plan for three gateway signs. <br /> P O W E R E D 0 Y <br /> 1`4M <br />
