The City of New Brighton wishes to establish a Sign Plan for three <br /> Civic Campus buildings; City Hall,the Family Service Center and the Public Safety Center. <br /> There are several different components: site entry signs,wall signs,ground signs,window signs, <br /> special signs and freeway signs. <br /> Baker expressed support of the addition of signs for downtown. Boylan added that the City put <br /> this special use permit together to allow flexibility for future changes. Howard questioned <br /> if the City will know how many signs will be used. Boylan responded that there would be <br /> roughly 9 to 13 signs. O'Keefe inquired why tenants would not be added to ground signs. Steve <br /> Rymer,Director of Parks and Recreation,responded that due to cost efficiency the tenants would <br /> have separate wall mounted signs and to show that the City is the primary tenant. Mann and <br /> O'Keefe expressed concern that the window signs would be too small and not meet the needs of <br /> present and future tenants. Schiferl suggested that if they are on the same sign that the tenant is in <br /> a different color or font,to show that they are not part of the city. Baker suggested that the design <br /> allow for future expansion for tenants,but that the tenant sign look differently than the City signs. <br /> The Planning Commission suggested that Staff remove the following sentence in the Ground <br /> Signs: "Only one tenant may be identified on each sign"and to change tenant to tenants. <br /> Motion by Baker, Second Schiferl by to CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. <br /> 7 Ayes, 0 Nays, MOTION CARRIED. <br /> I:\COMMISSIONS\PLANNING\Minutes\2005\09-20-05.doc <br />
