<br /> MINUTES <br /> CITY COUNCIL <br /> OCTOBER 27, 2010 <br /> Blesener suggested that as tenants turn over and signage is changed, it is <br /> preferable to have raceway motimting to eliminate numerous holes in the <br /> building. Blesener noted the holes in the building at the Market Place, and <br /> felt it would be preferable to have that signage on raceway mountings. <br /> Montour indicated that the problem is when signage is changed, the tenant <br /> or property owner does not do a good job in repairing the building. <br /> Blesener asked about the size of signage and raceways. Laage indicated <br /> that the raceways would be either 5 or 8 feet in height depending on the <br /> lettering size used for the sign. The raceway would be 4 inches in depth, <br /> the sign 5 inches in depth for a total of 9 inches. Laage indicated that <br /> these are typical dimensions. McCraw asked about letter height. Laage <br /> replied that that would depend on the tenant. He also noted that most <br /> signage is LED, therefore, decreasing the size of the lighting box needed <br /> on the raceway. <br /> Montour stated that his concern was for consistency and for keeping the <br /> raceways as small as possible. The LED lighting will help in keeping the <br /> size at a minimum. The City Planner indicated that the Architectural <br /> Guidelines call for consistency, and the Council could require that all <br /> building signage by lit via LED. Boss asked about the color of signage. <br /> Laage indicated that while the raceways would be a color to match the <br /> building, individual tenant signs would depend on the particular tenant. <br /> 'I•here was no one present wishing to comment on this matter. <br /> Upon motion by Boss, seconded by Keis, the public hearing was closed. <br /> The Council noted the sign on the building that identifies it as "The <br /> Village". The Council indicated that this signage was very attractive and <br /> the ideal type of signage that the City is looking for. <br /> Mr. Montour introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: <br /> RESOL UTION ND. 2010-10-262 - APPROVING A PUD PERMIT <br /> FOR A COMPREHENSIVE SIGN PLAN FOR THE VILLAGE AT <br /> LITTLE CANADA SUBJECT TO COMPLIANCE WITH THE <br /> RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE CITY PLANNER AS OUTLINED IN <br /> IIIS REPORT DATED SEPTEMBER 28, 2010 AS WELL AS <br /> SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS: <br /> *ALL TENANT SIGNAGE MUST BE MOUNTED ON RACEWAYS, <br /> WITH THE EXCEPTION OF "THE VILLAGE" SIGNAGE AS <br /> PROPOSED THIS EVENING; <br /> 3 <br /> <br />
