COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT <br /> PLANNING <br /> In January, the Planning Commission will be considering possible <br /> changes to the sign code. Staff spent the month of December <br /> researching the sign codes of other cities to prepare a basis for <br /> discussion. Electronic readerboards, search lights, and inflatable <br /> balloons (type of signs that probably weren't even around the last time <br /> the code was revised!) arejusta few of the many items under <br /> consideration. <br /> RECYCLING <br /> Residents of the Colonial Village Mobile Home Park have been sent a <br /> detailed mailing on how to recycle within their park. This mailing <br /> included, among other things: a list of accepted items, a calendar with <br /> recycling dates marked and information on recycling bins. We will be <br /> able to see if this mailing increases park participation, as Colonial <br /> Village's hauler (Peterson Brothers) does not pick up anywhere else in <br /> the City. <br /> SPECIAL EVENT <br /> Last Wednesday, City Hall was visited by none other than SANTA CLAUS <br /> himself. The Council Chambers were turned into a Christmas <br /> wonderland and families of staff and Council stopped by to visit with Mr. <br /> Claus, eat cookies, and generally have a good time. Many thanks to <br /> Dennis Hjelle (our custodian extraordinaire) for serving as Santa and to <br /> Barb Benesch for planning the event and for making sure that each child <br /> received just the right gift. <br /> Carla <br />
