Mr. Pankratz stated that perhaps staff would have more information but believed that the signs <br />would be regulated by MnDOT. <br />City Administrator Ulrich stated that the City does have a dynamic sign ordinance. He stated <br />that the City could look into that option noting that there are options for a private contractor to <br />build the sign with funds gained from advertising. <br />Mr Pankratz stated that if that is going to be done, you would also want to ensure that there is <br />space for retailer signage that would be visible from the highway. <br />Community Development Director Gladhill noted that is a topic being researched as part of the <br />Resilient Communities Partnership. <br />Economic Dev. Mgr./Assistant City Administrator Brama noted that the sign plan is included on <br />the work plan. <br />4.04: Buxton Group Opportunity <br />Economic Dev.
