Memo to Planning Commission/OA 00-4 <br /> February 16,2000 <br /> Page 2 <br /> At the February 8, 2000 Workshop, discussion focused around the business <br /> • community's needs for additional signage versus protecting the health, safety, and <br /> welfare of the citizens of Elk River. Specifically, the issue of aesthetics was discussed <br /> at great length. <br /> The consensus of the group, as indicated in the proposed language was to: <br /> 1. Increase the number of days to 90 per year. <br /> 2. Increase the number of permits to six per year, allowing each permit to have <br /> a different number of days and whose cumulative total would not exceed 90 <br /> days per year. <br /> 3. Allow different size signs based on the posted speed of the adjacent <br /> roadway. Signs would be either 32 or 64 square feet maximum. <br /> 4. Allow more than one sign per lot for multi-tenant buildings provided that the <br /> signs are placed a minimum of 100 feet apart. <br /> The City Attorney reviewed the proposed changes and had no comments. <br /> Recommendation <br /> Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend approval of the proposed <br /> ordinance language as attached. <br /> • <br /> 0 <br />
