7.04: Request for a Conditional Use Permit to Exceed Sign Size Restrictions at 6228 Highway 10 NW; Case of Country Side Services of Minnesota, Inc. Community Development Director Gladhill reviewed the staff report and recommendation to adopt Resolutions #15-07-169 and #15-07-170 approving a Conditional Use Permit for a 28 square foot dynamic display added to an existing 105 square foot sign. Councilmember Kuzma referenced the construction on Highway 10 and questioned if the sign would be affected by the wall. Community Development Director Gladhill stated that any retaining wall, if there would be a retaining wall in this area, would be lower than the dynamic sign and therefore the sign should be visible. He stated that the Highway 10 plans are not complete and could be changed and noted that the applicant has been very proactive and involved during the process and is aware of the plans.
