BUSINESS PARK MONUMENT SIGNAGE <br />By: Sean Sullivan, Economic Development / TIF Specialist <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />Staff was directed to research sign types and possible vendors for signs for the City's industrial Parks and other <br />prominent locations at City entrance points. Staff has contacted Elk River Brick and Stone, T J Associates, <br />Granite Signs and an individual affiliated with Bake Star. The purpose of this discussion is find desirable sign <br />types and to locate vendors that would be able to quote and construct these signs, once the sign types have <br />been defined, specific locations and timing will be worked out at a later date. It is anticipated that the funds for <br />these signs will be utilized from corresponding TIF Districts and/or from the EDA budget. <br /> <br />Observations: <br /> <br />During the course of the EDA meeting Staff will hand out a number of pictures relating to 43 specific sign <br />types. Each EDA member should pick out 3 or 4 sign types and document them on the sheet to be provided at <br />the meeting. By meetings end, the group should reach a general consensus on which 4 or 5 sign types to <br />research further. At the time of the meeting only Elk River Brick and Stone was able to put together some <br />quotes for the signage but that is not a determining factor at this point. The challenge to the EDA is to identify <br />what types of signs are appropriate and to direct staff to get more details regarding the signs including costs and <br />vendors. The recommendation on which sign types to pursue should come at this meeting as to keep the <br />process moving forward. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />Based on discussion <br /> <br />Review Checklist: <br /> <br />City Administrator, Jim Norman <br />Associate Planner, Megan Wald <br /> <br />EDA: 06.14.04 <br /> <br /> <br />
