City Council Regular Meeting Minutes October 28, 2003 Page 5 Discussion: Councilmember Horst indicated no examples were provided of the proposed signage and he asked if any were available. Commissioner Steeves reviewed a proposed signage plan for Bumper to Bumper Auto Parts with the Council. Councilmember Horst indicated he did not understand the need for the second company logo on the sign. Jim Crockeril Co-Owner St. Anthony Shopping Center, LLP, stated the representative present at the last meeting indicated this was very important to the tenant occupying this space and would need to be reviewed at a corporate level. Councilmember Horst noted he was not happy with the proposal and stated if it was a deal buster, he would wrestle with the proposed sign style and proposed amendment change. Councilmember Faust asked if this solution would tailor to future tenants. Commissioner Steeves stated the Resolution was crafted to allow this tenant to comply but would not allow future tenants to create more than two company logo signs or 25% of the size of the total sign. Councilmember Sparks indicated she was concerned about this tenant and if the window signage would continue once the overhead sign was in place. City Manager Mornson indicated temporary window signs have been placed at this site until the overhead signs were approved. Councilmember Faust indicated this Resolution would clean up the site tremendously by removing the window signs and by creating a uniform overhead sign. Mayor Hodson indicated he was comfortable with the Resolution as stated and thanked the Commission for their comprehensive work on the Sign Plan. Councilmember Sparks indicated she was not comfortable with the two company logo signs. Councilmember Horst noted this would be a different sign from what all other members in the center have. He indicated he did not care for the design but would go with the Planning Commissions recommendation. Councilmember Faust asked what the vacancy rate was at this time. Mr. Crockeril indicated he was about 95% full at this time. Ayes—3, Nays=2(Iorst and Sparks). Motion carried. Commissioner Steeves reviewed information on a proposed adult daycare in a light industrial area in the City. Commissioner Steeves reported the property owner of a light industrial property has been approached for the purchase of his property to run an adult daycare. He noted this was not a permitted use in light industrial and would need a rezoning or an amendment to the light industrial use within the City. He indicated there was a variety of concerns at a State and local level at this time. Commissioner Steeves noted additional information was being gathered at this time from the property owner and potential daycare personnel. He asked for Council to provide the Commission with input at a future time.
