Public Hearing: Resolution 9647, Approving a Conditional Use Permit for Abiding Savior at 8211 Red Oak Drive. Community Development Director Sevald requested the Council hold a public hearing and approve a conditional use permit for Abiding Savior for their dynamic display sign at 8211 Red Oak Drive. He commented further on the dimensions of the proposed dynamic display sign and recommended approval. Mayor Mueller opened the public hearing at 8:07 p.m. Steve Hidean, 8255 Red Oak Drive, explained he was a pastors kid and he grew up in the church. He understood the need for signage. He reported he was concerned about the sign that was proposed by the contractor. He believed none of the proposed signs were appropriate for residential areas. He understood the City was implementing light standards for the sign. He noted he did not support the sign, but noted he could be in favor if light standards were put in place. Gary Paul Engen, 8151 Red Oak Court, noted he lived close to the church and was a representative for the church. He thanked the Council for considering his request and noted the sign would automatically dim based on ambient light, which meant the sign would be dialed back at night. He stated he looked forward to better communicating with the community through the new sign. Hearing no further public input, Mayor Mueller closed the public hearing at 8:12 p.m. Council Member Meehlhause asked if the sign would be located on Red Oak Drive. Community Development Director Sevald reported this was the case. Council Member Meehlhause questioned if City Code required dynamic display signs to be turned off at a certain time. Community Development Director Sevald explained the church was agreeable to turn the sign off at 10:00 p.m. each night so as not to disturb the neighborhood. Council Member Meehlhause inquired if the Messiah Lutheran Church sign has had any complaints since being installed. Community Development Director Sevald stated he has not received any complaints.
