Mounds View Planning Commission September 5, 2001 <br />Regular Meeting Page 7 <br />________________________________________________________________________ <br /> <br /> <br />Commissioner Hegland inquired as to what the company’s policy was on graffiti. <br /> <br />Mr. McCarver indicated that the company would take care of graffiti immediately as his <br />company is obligated to reimburse its client for the amount of time the graffiti remains on the <br />sign. He then explained that this is something the company wants to avoid so there are full time <br />people on staff to immediately deal with graffiti should it occur. <br /> <br />Chairperson Stevenson asked if Red McCombs is a major player in Clear Channel Outdoor. <br /> <br />Mr. McCarver indicated that Red McCombs is the second largest shareholder in the company. <br /> <br />Commissioner Johnson asked how the billboard fits into the Highway 10 corridor theme. <br /> <br />Community Development Director Ericson indicated that it is too early to know what theme will <br />be used for the Highway 10 corridor. He then noted that there would be a Highway 10 Steering <br />Committee Meeting on October 10, 2001 and a public open house to discuss the project on <br />October 15, 2001. <br /> <br />Commissioner Johnson questioned whether the City could use the brick face of the sign base for <br />community signage, i.e., “Welcome to Mounds View.” <br /> <br />Mr. McCarver indicated the company would consider allowing the City to use the brick face of <br />the sign base. <br /> <br />Community Development Director Ericson indicated he would draft a Resolution for approval at <br />the next meeting. <br /> <br />Commissioner Hegland requested that Mr. McCarver bring drawings of the proposed sign to the <br />next meeting that show the same views as the pictures provided at this meeting. <br /> <br />Mr. McCarver indicated he would ask representatives at his company to do so. <br />______________________________________________________________________________ <br /> <br />6.
