A change needs to be made to accommodate the updated technology for signage <br />generally, but continue its prohibition as a technique for accommodating video. <br /> <br />Further, LED also has the capacity for creating illuminated graphics that were not <br />feasible with previous lighting technologies. As such, many communities have seen LED <br />requests for banding of buildings and other illumination techniques that create graphic <br />displays not technically signage, but very bright and possibly, distracting. Staff has <br />interpreted this application as prohibited under the code, but the language of the code <br />relates to LED in a different way (as noted above). <br /> <br />Discussion related to the used of LED graphics should be focused on the City’s stance <br />toward this technique, and ordinance language related to regulating its use in <br />accordance with that stance. <br /> <br />No specific action is expected at the Workshop, although staff expects to consolidate Planning <br />Commission comments on each of the topics for City Council review. The Council may call for <br />amendments and the appropriate Planning Commission public hearings if any changes are to be <br />made, at which time the Commission will have additional opportunity to review specific <br />language and options. <br />
