• <br />• <br />• <br />October 22, 2003 <br />Dear Business Owner: <br />The City of Lino Lakes is examining its sign ordinance regarding temporary signage. This stems <br />from concern over the appearance and excessive use of temporary signs. Several business <br />owners have requested that they be allowed to use temporary signage more than is allowed by <br />the current ordinance. Temporary signage includes all signs that are not permanently constructed <br />such as banners, cardboard ground signs, and other such signs. <br />The Planning & Zoning Board will be discussing the issue at its next meeting on November 12, <br />2003. The Board invites business owners to the meeting with the goal of hearing their <br />perspective on the use of temporary signs. This will be an informal discussion. This will not be <br />a formal public hearing and no formal action will be taken. <br />The discussion likely will lead to the preparation of a draft amendment to the sign ordinance. A <br />formal public hearing will be conducted once a draft is prepared. After a public hearing, the <br />ordinance amendment would be considered by the City Council. The schedule for this has not <br />yet been determined. <br />This invitation is being sent to businesses we believe are representative of the types of business <br />that have or are likely to use temporary signage. There is no intention to exclude any businesses. <br />If you know of another business owner who may be interested, please feel free to pass on this <br />invitation. <br />Please feel free to call with any questions at (651)982 -2425. <br />Sincerely, <br />Jeff Smyser <br />City Planner <br />600 Town Center Parkway, Lino Lakes, Minnesota 55014-1182 <br />Phone: 651 -982 -2400 • Fax: 651- 982 -2499 • TDD: 651 - 982 -2410 <br />
