Buildings and Land Use Committee

July 3, 1997

Present: Bruce Thompson, Edwin Ward, Daniel Weir, Lucille Downey - The Gazette

Discussed:   Signage  - good discussion on all types of signs - height, size, wall, pole, monument, free standing plaza sign, temporary

Discussed the idea of continue working in the manner - anything that would be put together will be brought to Council for discussion then sent to the Planning Commission for their opinion then brought back to Council so Council can review the Planning Commissions opinion.   The Building and Lands Committee recommends Council will put it aside until Council has an ample amount of changes for the zoning text to start public hearings and the 3 reading process.  We talked about the importance of working closely with Dan and not going too fast. We want these to be good changes.

Meeting Adjourn at 5:15 p.m.
