PUBLIC HEARING for an amendment to Sign Ordinance text to prohibit and /or otherwise address dynamic, changing -image signage DRAFT MINUTES Planning & Zoning Board February 13, 2008 Page 2 Jeff Smyser, City Planner, presented the staff report. Mr. Smyser explained that new billboards are no longer allowed in the city, however they need to consider that existing billboards could be converted to dynamic display signs. He clarified that the proposed ordinance will only prohibit dynamic signs that are 20 square feet or larger. He added that dynamic display signs have proven to be distracting to drivers and they conflict with the aesthetics of the city. Upon discussion, Board Members identified a number of issues for staff to consult with the city attorney about and bring back to next month's meeting. The board's suggestions for consideration included addressing advertising flags for businesses, addressing the rate of change for dynamic display signs that are smaller than 20 sq. ft., and addressing the use of dynamic display signs on a temporary basis. Board Members concluded that they understand the reasons for prohibiting dynamic display signs, especially for safety purposes. Mr. Rafferty made a MOTION to table the Public Hearing to the March meeting. Motion was supported by Mr. Root. Motion carried 5 - 0. VI. DISCUSSION ITEMS A.

Respectfully submitted, Dawn Bugge Community Development Assistant DRAFT MINUTES • • • • • AGENDA ITEM V A STAFF ORIGINATOR: Jeff Smyser P & Z MEETING DATE: March 12, 2008 TOPIC: CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING: Sign Ordinance Amendments BACKGROUND The P & Z opened the public hearing on February 13 and continued it. Staff discussed issues with the City Attorney, as directed by the P & Z, and made some adjustments to the draft ordinance. Those elements are shaded in this draft. In cooperation with the City Attorney, staff has prepared a draft to amend the ordinance to address "dynamic display" signs and other issues. Dynamic display signs are signs with moving or changing images. These are being seen more and more around the Metro Area on billboards on freeways. As long as the sign ordinance was being amended in some major ways to address dynamic signs, we thought we might as well clarify other issues as well. The City last amended its sign ordinance in 2005 to address temporary signs the current proposal will be the first major overhaul of the sign ordinance in many years: probably since 1997. The City adopted a moratorium on dynamic display signs in April 2007. The one -year moratorium expires on April 18, 2008. Staff's goal is to discuss the proposed amendments and get direction from the Board for any changes. We hope to bring the ordinance amendments to the City Council on March 24 for a first reading. ANALYSIS The revised draft includes some shaded passages to draw P & Z attention to the points discussed at the last meeting as needing some clarification. • The definitions of "banner" and "flag" have been refined to distinguish a flag from a banner (Sec. II., pages 3 & 4). • The definition of "sign" excludes road signs so that electric road construction signs • with changing messages are not prohibited as dynamic display signs (Sec. II., page 5). • We've clarified that noncommercial speech will not be reviewed in determining if a sign permit should be issued (III.A., p. 8, and VI., page 22). • Signs in windows will not be regulated with permit requirements, but dynamic display signs of any size in windows are prohibited (VI.E., page 17). • Two issues regarding dynamic display signs are addressed in Section VI., par. X. (pages 21 -22). The first one is clarification that the dynamic display prohibition applies to both permanent and temporary signs. The second issue relates to signs of less than 20 sf . The P & Z asked if these smaller dynamic display signs should be prohibited from changing their messages often. The added text in the draft includes such a prohibition. However, such a prohibition would prevent new reader boards, like the one at the bank on Lake Drive. This reader board has a message that constantly scrolls horizontally, giving time, temperature, and public and private messages. Please note that staff is not recommending this language be adopted, but included it here for discussion. I think such a requirement has more negative implications than positive. • The P & Z discussed some issues relevant to flags. New text (Sec. VI. par Z., page 22) addresses flags of both types: government symbols and non - government business flags. As drafted, it allows up to three government flags per lot, on flag poles, without a permit because it is considered noncommercial speech. More than this would require sign permits as for permanent signs. This would prevent the numerous American flags often seen at such businesses as car lots. An alternative is to allow an unlimited number of government flags. Regarding non - government flags, since a flag is only seen when a wind is blowing, a corporate flag is addressed differently from a regular sign. One non - government sign would be allowed on a flagpole without a permit. OPTIONS 1. Recommend approval of the sign ordinance amendments, with specified revisions if desired. 2. Return to staff with direction. RECOMMENDATION Option 1 • • • • • DRAFT REVISIONS CITY OF LINO LAKES DRAFT March 6, 2008 COUNTY OF ANOKA ORDINANCE NO. 05-05 xx -08 AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. 12 97 05 -05 AN ORDINANCE REGULATING SIGNS IN THE CITY OF LINO LAKES, ANOKA COUNTY, MINNESOTA. The City Council of the City of Lino Lakes ordains that Ordinance No. 1 . 97 05 -05 is amended as follows: SECTION I. PURPOSE, INTENT, AND FINDINGS It is not the purpose or intent of this sign ordinance to regulate the message displayed on any sign; nor is it the purpose or intent to regulate any building design or any display not defined as a sign, or any sign which cannot be viewed from outside a building. Rather, the purpose and findings of the sign ordinance are as follows: a) Purpose: the sign ordinance is intended to establish a comprehensive and balanced system of sign control that accommodates the need for a well - maintained, safe, and attractive community, and the need for effective communications including business identification. It is the intent of this sectionordinance, to promote the health, safety, general welfare, aesthetics, and image of the community by regulating signs that are intended to communicate to the public, and to use signs which meet the city's goals by authorizing: 1) permanent signs which establish a high standard of aesthetics; 2) signs which are compatible with their surroundings; 3) signs which are designed, constructed, installed and maintained in a manner that does not adversely impact public safety or unduly distract motorists; 4) signs which are large enough to convey the intended message and to help citizens find their way to intended destinations; 5) signs that are proportioned to the scale of, and are architecturally compatible with, principal structures; 6) permanent signs which give preference to the on- premise owner or occupant; and 7) temporary commercial signs and advertising displays which provide an opportunity for grand openings and occasional sales events while restricting signs which create continuous visual clutter and hazards at public right -of -way intersections. b) Findings: the city of Lino Lakes finds it is necessary for the promotion and preservation of the public health, safety, welfare and aesthetics of the community that the DRAFT REVISIONS TO Ordinance 05 -05, Sign Ordinance page 1 of 29 construction, location, size and maintenance of signs be controlled. Further, the city finds: 1) permanent and temporary signs have a direct impact on and relationship to the image of the community; 2) the manner of installation, location and maintenance of signs affects the public health, safety, welfare and aesthetics of the community; 3) an opportunity for viable identification of community businesses and institutions must be established; 4) the safety of motorists, cyclists, pedestrians and other users of public streets and property is affected by the number, size, location and appearance of signs that unduly divert the attention of drivers; 5) installation of signs suspended from, projecting over, or placed on the tops of buildings, walks or other structures may constitute a hazard during periods of high winds and an obstacle to effective fire- fighting and other emergency service; 6) uncontrolled and unlimited signs adversely impact the image and aesthetic attractiveness of the community and thereby undermine economic value and growth; 7) uncontrolled and unlimited signs, particularly temporary signs which are commonly located within or adjacent to public right -of -way or are located at driveway /street intersections, result in roadside clutter and obstruction of views of oncoming traffic. This creates a hazard to drivers and pedestrians and also adversely impacts a logical flow of information; 8) commercial signs are generally incompatible with residential uses and should be strictly limited in residential zoning districts; and 9) the right to express noncommercial opinions in any zoning district must be protected, subject to reasonable restrictions on size, height, location and number. use of such devices.

SECTION III. ADMINISTRATION AND ENFORCEMENT A. Permit Required. No sign shall be erected, altered, reconstructed, maintained or moved in the city without first secutring a permit from the city, unless this ordinance specifically states otherwise. The = .. �� x�R' ` content of the sign shall not be reviewed or considered in determining whether to approve or deny a sign permit. The permit owner shall be responsible for all of the requirements of this Ordinance, including the liability for expense of removal and maintenance incurred by the City. Sign permit fees shall be as specified in the city fee schedule. B. Repairs. All signs shall be maintained in good condition and the areas around them kept free from debris, bushes, high weeds, and from anything else which would be an eyesore or nuisance. The surface of all All signs must be Official maintained to prevent the sign surface from becoming unkempt in appearance. When any around sign is removed, and the entire surrounding area shall be cleared of all debris and unsightly projections and protrusions. .. ;.. • ! - Any sign located in the city which may now be or hereafter become out of order, rotten or unsafe, and every sign which shall hereafter be erected, altered, resurfaced, reconstructed or moved contrary to the provisions of this sign ordinance, shall be removed or otherwise properly secured in accordance with the terms of this sign ordinance by the owners thereof or by the owners of the grounds on which said sign shall stand, upon receipt of proper notice so to do, given by the issuiffig-autheity. No rotten or other unsafe sign shall be repaired or rebuilt except in accordance with the provisions of this sign ordinance and upon proper permit issued by the issuuing authority. C. Removal. In the event of the failure of the owner or person, company or corporation having control of any sign, or the owner of the ground on which the sign is located, to DRAFT REVISIONS TO Ordinance 05 -05, Sign Ordinance page 8 of 29 • • • remove or repair said sign within 60 days after the use is terminated, a notice shall be given and the sign may be removed by the city at the expense of the owner or manager of the sign, or the owner of the ground upon which the sign stands. D. Violations. Any violation of this Ordinance shall constitute a misdemeanor. Each day of such violation shall constitute a separate offense. SECTION IV. DYNAMIC SIGN REGULATIONS: Findings. Studies show that there is a correlation between dynamic displays on signs and the distraction of highway drivers. Distraction can lead to traffic accidents. Drivers can be distracted not only by a changing message, but also by knowing that the sign has a changing message. Drivers may watch a sign waiting for the next change to occur. Drivers are also distracted by messages that do not tell the full story in one look. People have a natural desire to see the end of the story and will continue to look at the sign in order to wait for the end. Additionally, drivers are more distracted by special effects used to change the message, such as fade -ins and fade -outs. Finally, drivers are generally more distracted by messages that are too small to be clearly seen or that contain more than a simple message. Time and temperature signs appear to be an exception to these concerns because the messages are short, easily absorbed. and become inaccurate without frequent changes. In conclusion, the city finds that any sign containing, in whole or in part, a dynamic display. except signs solely displaying the time and/or temperature or similar, should not be allowed in any District except as otherwise as set forth in this Ordinance.
