CC Regular Session Meeting Date: 07/26/2011 By: Patrick Brama, Administrative Services Title: Community Sign Policy Background: Within the next month, the City of Ramsey will own and operate a community sign located near the Ramsey Municipal Center on US Highway 10. The new sign includes a computerized LED electronic message center. It is housed within a larger sign unit for The COR (Center of Ramsey) that includes tenant space. The purpose of the community sign is to promote city and community organization events. Please see the attached image for reference: "Community Sign Image."

Attached to this case is a draft of the proposed "Community Sign Policy." Also attached to this case for review is the proposed "Community Sign Use Application."
