First Reading and Introduction of Ordinance 884, Amending Chapter 1008 <br />Regarding Ground Signs and Nonconforming Signs. <br /> <br />Planning Associate Heller stated the Planning Commission and City Council have started <br />focusing on enhancing the County Road 10 corridor. This has involved discussions on the <br />general development to improve the visual appeal of the corridor. One idea has been to change <br />the style and height allowances of the signage in the corridor to monument style signs, and to <br />reduce the 15-foot setback amount along County Road 10. <br /> <br />Planning Associate Heller explained the Planning Commission discussed the sign code changes <br />at their last few meetings and was in favor of amending the sign code rather than having specific <br />requirements for the corridor. Staff reviewed the proposed sign code amendments in detail and <br />explained the Planning Commission recommended approval of amending Chapter 1008 <br />regarding ground signs and nonconforming signs. <br /> <br />Council Member Gunn asked if monument style signs would fit into the easement along the <br />County Road 10 corridor given the fact the corridor now had a trail. Planning Associate Heller <br />explained the monument style signs would fit in the easement.
