Zoning Files #1000 & #1009 <br />October 23, 1986 <br />Page 3 <br />Staff advised that if a second pylon was approved, the existing <br />pylon would have to be replaced at some agreed upon future date to <br />match the lower 26 fc t high pylon and limited to 6 ID plaques as <br />would be the one on the east side. Note the Ri ctif ield code does not <br />allow a second pylon where the Minnetonka code allows a second pylon <br />per each major thoroughfare approach to the center. The Richfield <br />code does define the pylon sign as being considered one sign although <br />having more than two or more sides. This is not addressed in the <br />Orono code although staff has in the past only considered one side of <br />the pylon in the total signage area. All signage areas he— been <br />calculated on this basis. <br />Review of required variances per B-1 district and comparison of B-3 <br />district, Richfield and Minnetonka code standards: <br />Height - Pylon - East Location <br />1.
