• PLANNING 8 ZONING August 13, 1986 Page Six The consensus of the Board was that the sign ordinance was recently revised per P 8 Z recommendations and there were questions as to why the Council asked the P 8 Z Board to review this information. Mrs. Klaus was concerned that the 7/11/86 memo requested that indi- viduals be responsible for the policing of their own "residential promotion" signs. She felt that the entire community is affected by signs and that individuals would not do an adequate job of policing. Another item within the memo suggested that all business signs be professionaly constructed and installed. The Board took exception to this statement, since they felt that the present sign ordinance con- tains definite quality standards for signs. Chairman Doocy asked that the P 8 Z Board review this matter at the end of the six month trial period. BUILDING STANDARDS TEXT AMENDMENT Mr. Kluegel explained that the July 28, 1986 Council tabled the text amendment for buildirig standards which P 8 Z recommended. Several citizens were present at that meeting speaking against the proposed amendment. SMr. McLean asked what action the Council has requested with regard to the proposal. Mr. Bohjanen stated that generally the proposal was thought to be too restrictive. Mr. Cody stated that direction came from the Council earlier this year to review the building standards, a lot of study went into the task and he felt that a well- reasoned set of guidelines has been proposed. He did not feel the proposal should be changed based on the flack from a few individuals. MOTION: Mr. McLean moved to recommend to Council that the proposed building standards text amendment remain as previously recommended by the P 8 Z Board. Mr. Cody seconded the motion which carried unanimously. OLD BUSINESS Upcoming Joint Meeting - Mr. Kluegel reminded the Board that the Council, P 6 Z Board and Comp. Plan Task Force will be having a joint meeting at 7:00 P.M., August 27, 1986 to discuss several issues including the comp. plan review. Mr. Johnson said that he or Mr. Wuornos will be attending also.
