Councilmember Elvig stated that our ordinance says no salvaging and no outside storage. We <br />would have to change the ordinance then to say salvage is okay if screened. <br />Councilmember Dehen stated or tell him what the ordinance is and let him decide for himself. <br />Councilmember Look felt there had to be a classic car provision. <br />2) Temporary Signs <br />Discussion ensued relating to temporary signs. <br />Associate Planner Gladhill stated that the City used to issue temporary sign permits. He asked <br />for Council direction on whether or not to bring that back. He talked about time allotment for <br />signs and what was allowed. We tried to be more flexible but we did not want them to become a <br />nuisance. <br />Councilmember Look talked about some sign cases and referenced Hopkins. Because of that, we <br />basically relaxed our ordinance. If we are going to start permitting signs, we will also have to <br />regulate real estate signs, etc. <br />Councilmember McGlone stated maybe we don't regulate signs on the weekend. <br />Mr. Gladhill suggested we could base it on size of sign. <br />Councilmember Dehen inquired if all the signs shown in the presentation were considered <br />temporary signs. He felt that signs take away from aesthetics -and there should be nothing in <br />the right-of--way. Some of these are no brainers but he likes the idea if someone is putting up a <br />temporary sign they get a permit.and put the amount of time the sign will be up. <br />Planning Manager Miller referenced a sign ordinance in a past city she worked in and it was <br />regulated according to size. <br />Mayor Ramsey stated he would like to see no signs in the right-of--way at all and he would like to <br />see it permitted 10 weeks out of the year -they would pick the weeks and he would like <br />something affixed to the sign that showed when it was supposed to be displayed. He stated he <br />would like to see Realtor signs on private property only and that they be removed if they are in <br />the right-of--way. <br />Discussion ensued relating to signs, and more specifically to real estate signs such as those-put <br />out by Marty Fischer and City property for lease and/or sale. <br />Environmental Coordinator Anderson stated that our Code describes temporary signs as anything <br />not affixed to a UBC approved permanent structure. <br />City Council Work Session -May 4, 2010 <br />Page 5 of 13 <br />
