Page Two of Three /Sign Code Issues <br /> Temporary Signs • <br /> 1. Decide if pennants and fringe are to be considered temporary signs. If <br /> they are, how much fringe/pennant should be allowed per property? How <br /> should we enforce this? <br /> 2. Are large inflatable objects considered temporary signs? If so, what will <br /> be the size, height, setback requirements? <br /> 3. Add language allowing signage by construction companies while a project <br /> is in progress. <br /> 4. Add language regulating placement and time limits of garage sale signs. <br /> (This also should be addressed under zoning - at what point does a <br /> garage sale become a home business?) <br /> 5. Do we allow "advertising" signage in the front or side yard, i.e., a sofa in <br /> the front yard with "For Sale" written on it (the actual sale activity should <br /> be addressed in zoning code). Also "Free Puppies." <br /> 6. Setback requirements for temporary signs allowed - the right-of-way? <br /> 7. Temporary signs for charitable and civic events - are they subject to <br /> temporary sign ordinances? What is "charitable" or"civic" event? <br /> 8. Write in language specifically allowing "For Lease" and "For Sale" <br /> banners in excess of 10 square feet at apartment and business <br /> properties. Specifically state that banners of this type are not subject to <br /> the 3 temp signs per year rule. <br /> 9. Set regulations pertaining to the use of search lights (or should this be <br /> covered in the zoning code?) <br /> 10. Is the city responsible for temporary signs erected in utility poles (garage <br /> sales, etc.) <br /> 11. Must clarify temporary sign portion - three permits per property or three <br /> permits per business? Mounds View Square, for example, has a number <br /> of businesses on one piece of property are they allowed only three signs <br /> per year? <br /> 12. Change code to read "three permits per calendar year," rather than just <br />
