Proposed Ordinance <br />B. Existing City Codes 78-1466 and 78-1468 <br />Background <br />As the Highway 12 corridor is developir.'g more rapidly than the planned update of the <br />current sign ordinance, the proposed amendment is an interim solution, or tool, for the <br />City to use when faced with the inevitable upcoming monument sign proposals. <br />At the last Planning Commission work session the Planning Commission discussed <br />amending the Sign regulations (78-1466). Out of that work session it was determined <br />that the code sections regarding sign regulations do not address the monument signs <br />which are becoming more increasingly proposed by developers, businesses and sign <br />contractors. This proposed amendment will allow the City to provide developers with the <br />City’s standards for monument type signs and provide for a smoother permit approval <br />process. <br />Issues for Consideration <br />Are there any other issues or concerns with this proposed amendment? <br />Staff Recommendation <br />Planning Department Staff recommends that the Planning Commission review the <br />attached 2Loning Code Revision, make any necessary changes, and recommend approval <br />in order for Staff to bring it forward to the City Council.
