City of Mounds View Staff Report <br /> December 2, 1999 <br /> Page 2 <br /> 3. The City Attorney has advised City staff that the City cannot limit billboards to <br /> city-owned properties only. <br /> 4. A permit will be required from the State of Minnesota to locate billboards along <br /> state and federal highways. State statutes restrict such signs to commercial and <br /> industrial zoning districts only. The contemplated sites for additional billboards <br /> are not zoned commercial or industrial. <br /> The Planning Commission, as the City's advisory commission on land use matters, confined <br /> their review to the land use impacts of the proposed ordinance and did not consider the economic <br /> factors. The consideration of economic factors is the role of the City Council. <br /> Necessary Actions: <br /> Staff recommends that the City Council discuss the draft ordinance and determine if any <br /> language changes are necessary so that any changes can be presented at the public hearing <br /> scheduled for December 13, 1999. <br /> tA <br /> Rick Jopke, C mmunity Development Director <br /> N:\DATA\USERS\Rickj\SHARE\12699 Billboard Staff Report.doc <br />
