He has no issue with the <br /> church redoing their sign. His issue is who will want a billboard next. He suggested looking <br /> at language allowing sign placement on an adjacent lot as long as it's owned by the church. <br /> Attorney Beck indicated some cities have language allowing two lots to be counted as one <br /> for zoning purposes in such cases. He noted unintended consequences should be <br /> w. <br /> considered. 4% <br /> Mr. Carlton indicated staff is recommending the ordinance amendment be limited to <br /> religious uses and schools. He added religious uses with more than 1,000 lineal feet of <br /> frontage are eligible for additional signage. <br /> Council consensus was for staff to draft an ordinance amendment as discussed and bring <br /> back for Council approval at the first meeting August. <br /> 9.3 Connect with Council <br /> Mr. Portner presented the staff report. <br /> Councilmember Christianson indicated his idea was for residents to bring issues <br /> forward in a less formal setting. <br /> NATUREI <br />
