MINUTES <br />CITY COUNCIL <br />APRIL 22, 2009 <br />Merit felt that the situation was unique, and noted that the CVS signage <br />proposed meets the City's Architectural Guidelines. <br />Keis indicated it was his feeling that the Valvoline sign was fine as it is. <br />He agreed that not requiring the sign to be changed now would result in <br />lost leverage for the City, but pointed out that the sign was fine when it <br />was originally approved by the City. Keis felt that at best Valvoline <br />would agree with the sign change, but noted that CVS will likely have to <br />pay for it. Keis pointed out that the Valvoline sign will remain as a <br />separate sign regardless. <br />The City Planner pointed out that if upgrading the Valvoline sign is a <br />requirement, then the City would not issue permits for the installation of <br />the CVS signage, until there was agreement with Valvoline on their <br />signage upgrades. The Planner indicated that his recommendation did not <br />intend That the branding be changed, just improvements made to the sign <br />structure, such as brick or some other aesthetic improvements to the <br />existing pole. <br />At this point, it was the consensus of the Council to proceed with the <br />recommendation that CV S work with Valvoline on upgrades to their sign, <br />rather than make improvements a requirement of the Comprehensive Sign <br />Plan. <br />Mr. Montour introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: <br />RESOLUTION NO. 2009-4-88 -APPROVING THE CONDITIONAL <br />USE PERMIT FOR A COMPREHENSIVE SIGN PLAN FOR CVS <br />PHARMACYAS PROPOSED BYICONSOLUTIONSSUBJECT TO <br />COMPLIANCE WITH THE RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE CITY <br />PLANNER AS OUTLINED IN HIS REPORT DATED APRIL 3, 2009 <br />AND SUBJECT TO COMPLIANCE WITH THE <br />RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION AND <br />ENCOURAGING ICON SOL UTIONS AND CVS PHARMACY TO <br />WORK WITH VALVOLINE TO MODIFY THEIR SIGN TO MATCH <br />THE ARCHITECTURAL APPEARANCE OF THE CVS SIGNAGE <br />The foregoing resolution was duly seconded by Boss. <br />Ayes (4). <br />Nays (0).
