Mr. Smyser replied a business <br />could not be grandfathered in if a permit had not been originally pulled. <br /> <br />Mr. Laden stated they could define this as a banner. Mr. Smyser replied staff would need <br />to investigate the 32 foot rule because it woul d be difficult to measure a stringer as well <br />as difficult to enforce. <br /> <br />Mr. Root stated he believed a stringer was a banner and should be handled as a banner. <br />Mr. Pogalz stated he did not believe a nyone would pull a permit for a stringer. <br /> <br />Mr. Tralle asked how staff defined a “quarter”.
