I PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br /> 2 NOVEMBER 16, 1993 <br /> 3 PAGE 6 <br /> 4 <br /> 5 <br /> 6 would be a necessity for a 22 square foot variance. That recommendation is based on <br /> 7 the fact that no one appeared to speak against the sign and that it satisfies the three <br /> 8 conditions required for passage of a variance. The hardship consists of several <br /> 9 factors (1) distant of business from road; (2) coloration of the sign is lacking in <br /> 10 intensity next to surrounding signs; (3) visibility blockage when coming from north; <br /> 11 (4) a u-tum is required when coming from the south in entrance to the property; (5) <br /> 12 the neighboring sign is much larger; (6) the business has been a long contributor to <br /> 13 our tax base; and (7) traffic speed. <br /> 14 <br /> 15 The City Manager asked that for further variances the Planning Commission <br /> 16 reconsider the color of the sign as being a hardship. <br /> 17 <br /> 18 Commissioner Franzese withdrew coloration of the Goodyear sign as being a <br /> 19 hardship. <br /> 20 <br /> 21 Voting on the motion for ground sign only: <br /> 22 <br /> 23 Aye: Commissioners Thompson, Franzese, Madden, and Makowske <br /> 0-4 Nay: Commissioners Bergstrom, Gondorchin, and Chair Faust <br /> 25 <br /> 26 Motion carried. <br /> 27 <br /> 28 That motion will go before the City Council on December 13, 1993 and Chair Faust <br /> 29 advised Mr. Ewald to be at the meeting because the Council has the ability to either <br /> 30 reject, accept or modify it to any desires that they so see fit. <br /> 31 <br /> 32 Commissioner Franzese asked Mr. Ewald to check with.Goodyear regarding hours of <br /> 33 illumination and Mr. Ewald indicated he would withdraw the application for a second <br /> 34 sign at this time. <br /> 35 <br /> 36 VI. MISCELLANEOUS. <br /> 37 <br /> 38 A. Cadwallader's Realty World, 3800 Apache Lane; sign variance request. <br /> 39 <br /> 40 The City Manager informed the Commission that Jake Cadwallader wanted him to go <br /> 41 to New Brighton to see a pylon sign that looks like a for sale sign and the City <br /> 42 Manager indicated to him that pylon signs are not permitted and suggested that there <br /> 43 is room to put a wall sign on his building. Mr. Cadwallader was not happy and said <br /> 44 he would get back to the City Manager but didn't until November 16th and asked that . <br /> 45 we continue the matter in December. <br /> 06 <br />
