Planning & Zoning Board <br />September 8, 2004 <br />Page 9 <br />• Chair Rafferty stated he was in favor of temporary signage. Mr. Hyden replied he agreed <br />• <br />there was a place for temporary signage. <br />Mr. Root agreed there was a place for temporary signage depending on what was <br />considered temporary. Mr. Laden agreed. <br />Mr. Tralle stated if they allowed temporary signage, how would it be regulated. He <br />stated as long as the signs were very short-term, one or two days, he might agree to <br />temporary signage. He indicated he understood churches and schools would want to <br />advertise their special events. <br />Mr. Hyden asked if they could agree they would have temporary signs with restrictions. <br />The remainder of the Board agreed to this. <br />Chair Rafferty asked staff to come up with a list of restrictions within the next couple of <br />months. <br />Mr. Tralle said he did not want to discuss this issue if there would not be any <br />enforcement of it. Mr. Root suggested they discuss enforcement process at their next <br />meeting. <br />Chair Rafferty stated they needed to discuss signs in the right -of -way. Mr. Tralle noted <br />they did not need to discuss signs in the right -of -way because signs in the right -of -way <br />were already not allowed. <br />Mr. Smyser stated enforcement was a staffing responsibility and it was up to staff to <br />determine how this would be enforced. <br />Chair Rafferty stated the topic of discussion would be wasteful if there was no <br />enforcement. <br />Mr. Bengston suggested they break down the signs into categories and discuss each type <br />of sign individually at the next meeting. <br />Mr. Tralle asked if staff would inform the City Council that the P &Z wanted to clean up <br />the right -of -ways and wanted the temporary signs removed. <br />Mr. Tralle made a MOTION to recommend staff enforce the existing right -of -way <br />Ordinance and if staff needs City Council approval that the Board recommend to the City <br />Council to enforce the current right -of -way Ordinance and was supported by Mr. Laden. <br />Motion carried 4 -0. <br />B.

He noted they had begun a study of the area near the intersection of Hodgson <br />Road and Ash Street (CSAH 49 and County Road J). The study will examine current <br />land use as well as infrastructure, including road, water, and sanitary sewer. The goal is <br />DRAFT MINUTES <br />
