CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION <br /> APPROVED <br /> 40 right-of-way with a few City exceptions regardless of an election season. Attorney Nierengarten <br /> 41 spoke about other regulations regarding temporary signs and substitution signs. <br /> 42 City Planner Larsen shared about dynamic signs and adjustments to the ordinance that the <br /> 43 Planning and Zoning Board is looking into, including allowance for bigger dynamic signs up to <br /> 44 32 square feet. She shared that Paul Selbitschka, owner of Precision Tune Auto Care has asked <br /> 45 the City for a larger dynamic sign. The City is also looking at including an eight-second hold <br /> 46 time. <br /> 47 Paul Selbitschka shared about a rule-of-thumb regarding signs,that for every mile-per-hour a <br /> 48 road is, there would be one square foot of signage. Therefore the speed gives enough time for <br /> 49 one to read the sign. The concern with a small sign is that people would be more focused on <br /> 50 trying to read the sign and must be closer to be able to read it. <br /> 51 Councilmember Cavegn asked Mr. Selbitschka if he would rather get a 32 square foot sign now <br /> 52 and then replace it if the City ever goes to 50 square feet, or to wait. Mr. Selbitschka noted the <br /> 53 cost of an upgrade at 15-20%and he would probably not replace the 32 square foot sign right <br /> 54 away due to the replacement cost. <br /> 55 Mayor Rafferty would be comfortable with adjusting 32 square feet today. City Planner Larsen <br /> 56 will make that change and bring it to the first reading of the ordinance. <br /> 57 Item 2—Villas on Vicky PUD Revised Concept Plan Review—City Planner Larsen gave a <br /> 58 summary of her written Staff Report noting the City has reviewed the five-acre parcel, which is <br /> 59 guided medium density. The applicant came back with a 15-unit plan with a private drive and <br /> 60 cul-de-sac. She shared about setbacks, tweaks to minor architectural standards, and meeting the <br /> 61 density. The City Council should look at whether they support rezoning to the PUD and to <br /> 62 amend the Comprehensive Plan to get to the correct density for 15-units. At the February <br /> 63 meeting,the Planning and Zoning Board was in support of the potential public benefit with this <br /> 64 development including <br /> 65 • Custom built homes are an innovation in home type and design <br /> 66 • The proposed single family detached homes in a single family detached neighborhood <br /> 67 is a creative use of land and infill <br /> 68 • Private road reduces development cost and public investment <br /> 69 • One level, single family detached homes provide life cycle housing <br /> 70 • Vicky Lane and Kelly Street realignment <br /> 71 Ms. Larsen noted overall, Planning and Zoning supported rezoning the PUD and amending the <br /> 72 Comprehensive Plan to lower the density. She shared about a 14-unit layout that is not included <br /> 73 in the packet. <br /> 74 Mayor Rafferty clarified this project meets the public safety needs. <br /> 75 <br /> 76 Jon Blattman, Ranger Development, noted 14-units gives more flexibility on the design. Mayor <br /> 77 Rafferty asked about garage space. Mr. Blattman replied they will still have 22x22 garages and <br /> 78 spoke about the functionality of the layout of the units. He noted 22x22 will allow two cars with <br /> 2 <br />
