MINUTES <br />CITY COUNCIL <br />JUI~Y 24, 1996 <br />RIGHTS-OF- Council reviewed the request of the League of Minnesota <br />WAY TASK Cities for fundinq in the amount of $685 to assist the <br />FORCE League in their efforts to implement the work plan <br />developed by the Rights-of-Way Task Force. The work <br />plan was developed to counter the challenge to cities <br />riqhts to manage public rights-of-way. <br />Mrs. Scalze introduced the following resolution and <br />moved its adoption: <br />RESOLUTION NO. 96-7-180 - AUTHORIZING THE EXPENDITURE <br />OF $685 TO THE LEAGUE OF MINNESOTA CITIES TO ASSIST IN <br />FUNDING FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF TAE WORK PLAN <br />DEVELOPED BY THE RIGHTS-OF-WAY TASK FORCE <br />The foregoing resolution was duly seconded by Pedersen. <br />Ayes (5) Scalze, Pedersen, Morelan, Fahey, LaValle. <br />Nays (0). Resolution declared adopted. <br />CITY CENTER Fahey reported that he discussed the City Center sign <br />IDENTIFICATION with Ray Hanson, Chairman of the Community Pride <br />SIGN Committee. It was Ray's feeling the intent was to have <br />a City Center identification sign which was attractive <br />and would create a feeling of community pride. The <br />intent was not to have a monument siqn that was visible <br />to only one side of the City. Fahey felt if the City <br />is going to spend the money on the sign, it should be <br />placed in such a way as to be visible from both sides <br />of the City. Fahey indicated he supported the addition <br />of letiering on the brick portion of the sign <br />indicating "City Center". <br />Scalze agreed the letters should be added, and pointed <br />out the lettering on the outside of City Hall is <br />attractive. <br />Pedersen agreed the sign should be an identification <br />sign. Pedersen felt Option Two was the best location <br />for the sign. <br />The Council discussed the "City Center" lettering, and <br />the consensus was that the City Administrator should <br />work with Bill Sanders to determine the appropriate <br />placement for the lettering. <br />Morelan indicated he did not think an identification <br />sign was needed. Morelan viewed the sign as more of a <br />monument sign, and felt the best location for it was <br />Option'1. <br />15 <br />
