Case # 2 <br /> Business Park Monument Signage <br />By: Scan M. Sullivan, Economic Development/TIF Specialist <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />Staff presented sign types to the EDA on September 8, 2004 and the EDA identified 3 <br />types of signs that they preferred. Staff was directed to research the cost involved with <br />the preferred signs and to present the information to the EDA. The Brock White <br />Company of Elk River constructed the signs selected by the EDA, and all quotes are <br />provided from that business. <br /> <br />Observations: <br /> <br />All of the signs are quoted with Indiana Limestone and site preparation, landscaping, <br />electrical and sign permits are not included in the quotes. (See Attached Quotes) The <br />quotes include a two-sided sign and the upcharge of going with Kasota Limestone is also <br />provided. The signs range in price from $9,430 to $12,765. Staff feels that it would be <br />beneficial to light these signs but would like direction from the EDA as to this matter. <br />Signs shown can be slightly modified as to color and materials but changes will add to <br />the cost of the sign. Brick color, stone type and the two-sided nature of the signs need to <br />be discussed to reach a consensus before proceeding any further. Other variables such as <br />sign location and verbiage should be discussed to make sure the signs achieve the desired <br />goals. The primary funding of the signs should come from appropriate TIF districts and <br />the EDA where applicable. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />Based on discussion <br /> <br />Review Checklist: <br />City Administrator, Jim Norman <br />Associate Planner, Megan Wald <br /> <br />EDA: 11.10.04 <br /> <br /> <br />
