MINU`PES <br />CITY COUNCIL <br />JULY 10, 1996 <br />suggested if the sign is placed in the Option Two <br />location, there should be landscaping around it to <br />match the flag pole area. <br />Fahey stated that he was more comfortable spending the <br />money for the sign if it has a duel purpose of being <br />both an identification sign and a monument sign. <br />Morelan indicated that he, too, could go either way on <br />this issue. The Option Two location may encourage <br />people coming to City Hall to turn at the corner. <br />However, it seems like Option One fits better and there <br />is a$1,500 savings in having a one-sided sign. <br />Fahey pointed out that the Community Pride Committee <br />intended this sign to be an identification sign and <br />two-sided. Fahey stated that he favored the two sided <br />sign because it then serves a dual purpose. Fahey <br />suggested perhaps this subject should be referred back <br />to the Community Pride Committee. <br />LaValle pointed out the time the Council <br />year tryinq to trim the budget. LaValle <br />City can save $1,500 with the sign being <br />should do that. <br />spends each <br />felt if the <br />one-sided, it <br />Fahey stated that he was not interested in spending <br />money for a monument sign that doesn't provide the dual <br />purpose of identification sign as well. <br />Scalze suggested that if the sign is purely a monument <br />sign, it could be made smaller. Scalze suqgested <br />perhaps the sign is too big. <br />Morelan stated that if the only intention is to have an <br />identification sign, there are a lot of other things <br />the City can do. <br />Fahey agreed the sign was pretty big to be just a <br />monument sign. Fahey reported that he only supported <br />the sign since it was to have a dual purpose and serve <br />as an identification sign as well. Fahey suggested <br />perhaps a sign is not needed at all. <br />Scalze felt an identification siqn was needed, pointing <br />out that City Hall is located in the middle of a <br />residential area. There are some people who are not <br />aware of where City Hall is. <br />Fahey agreed some people could drive by City Hall and <br />think it is an office building. <br />9 <br />
