MINUTES CITY COUNCIL JUNE 27, 1990 The Planner also suggested that that directory information be limited to 33% of the total sign area. Boosalis was concerned with the limitation of directory information to 330 of the ID sign. Boosalis reported as one example of the importance of signage to businesses, that a tenant in another shopping center has offered to pay additional rent for additional space on the shopping center identification sign. Boosalis also pointed out the large amount of property taxes that the Rice At C Center generates. The Planner pointed out that if a shopping center ID sign is cluttered, it is difficult to read. The Planner also pointed out the tenant signage across the front of the shopping center. However, the Planner felt the issue was not that significant. There was no one present from the general public wishing to comment on this matter. Upon motion by Blesener, seconded by Scalze, the public hearing was closed. Collova asked if Boosalis could live with a setback of 40 feet for a second pylon. Boosalis replied that he would have to figure out the lay-out to determine if he could live with this restriction. Fahey pointed out that this is in line with what other cities are doing. Mr. Blesener introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLUTION N0. 90-6-303 - INSTRUCTING THE CITY PLANNER TO PREPARE A SIGN ORDINANCE AMENDMENT CONSISTENT WITH MOST OTHER COMMUNITIES, PROVIDING FOR AN ADDITIONAL FREE-STANDING SIGN FOR SEPARATE BUILDINGS AT SHOPPING CENTERS, PROVIDING FOR ONE SHOPPING CENTER IDENTIFICATION SIGN AS A PERMITTED USE, A SECOND SHOPPING CENTER IDENTIFICATION SIGN AS A CONDITIONAL USE PROVIDED THAT THE SHOPPING CENTER HAS 500 FEET OF ROAD FRONTAGE, AND REQUIRING THAT THE SECOND SIGN BE LOCATED AT LEAST 40 FEET FROM THE PRIMARY FRONTAGE Page 19
