Little Canada Mayor and City Council <br />10 May 1982 Page Two <br />More than any other aspect of signage, the number of signs can do more to <br />promote visual clutter than size or location. For this reason, the sign <br />regulations limit freestanding signs to one per property, except for <br />shopping centers, which may be allowed two by conditional use permit. Out <br />of the eleven affected property owners on Rice Street, seven comply with the <br />Ordinance in terms of number of signs. We strongly recommend that the City <br />maintain this requirement and that in cases where two freestanding signs now <br />exist, only one should be put back. This is not viewed as placing a hardship <br />on property owners, since the State has indicated that it will purchase signs <br />which are not allowed to be replaced. <br />SUMMARY <br />Based upon the preceding comments, the following recommendations are offered: <br />1. The Zoning Ordinance should be amended to allow signs within five feet <br />of the front or side property line. <br />2. Existing signs on Rice Street may be moved in compliance with 1. above. <br />New signs should also conform to size requirements of the Zoning <br />Ordinance. <br />3. The number of freestanding signs to be allowed should be limited to one <br />per property. <br />It is felt that these suggestions will result in fair treatment of the Rice <br />Street businessmen while still conforming to the intent of the Zoning Ordinance. <br />cc: Joe Chlebeck <br />Ed Locke <br />Tom Sweeney <br />Little Canada Planning Commission <br />1. 3 <br />
