Community Development Director Gladhill agreed that could be a cost-effective solution to tie <br />together the themes. <br />Councilmember Riley asked if the City has asked what SuperAmerica would allow on their site <br />in terms of signage. <br />Community Development Director Gladhill stated that staff has not yet spoken with the business <br />but would think that the City has a sign easement on the property. He agreed that staff would <br />speak with the business after gaining the direction from the Council tonight. <br />Councilmember Johns stated that she would want to ensure that there is landscaping near the <br />entrance monument signs. She stated that it would be more appropriate to have a smaller sign at <br />the Bunker Lake Blvd/CR 47 intersection. <br />Councilmember Shryock referenced the sign located near PACT Charter School for The DRAW <br />and asked for details on the materials used. <br />Community Development Director Gladhill provided additional details on the materials that <br />were used to mimic stone. <br />Parks and Assistant Public Works Superintendent Riverblood replied that the sign is holding up <br />well and there has not been damage to the sign. <br />Councilmember Shryock noted that she does not like the color of the sign near PACT. She <br />stated that she would like to have basic streetscaping guidelines along with signage and <br />landscape guidelines to continue to give the City a brand and identity. <br />Councilmember Johns asked for clarification on the direction staff is looking for. <br />Community Development Director Gladhill stated that although the decision does not have to <br />made tonight, staff would ultimately like direction from the Council. He stated that the desire <br />would be to have the City of Ramsey logo as the main element of the signs and then secondary <br />branding could occur for signs within different areas, such as The COR. <br />Councilmember Shryock stated that she would like more information on the cost and longevity <br />of the different material options. <br />Councilmember Riley stated that he would like to see the City of Ramsey logo maximized. He <br />noted that the stone element could stop and the whole top section of the sign could be the <br />Ramsey logo. He agreed that there would be other places where people enter the City that would <br />also benefit from signage branding. <br />Community Development Director Gladhill noted that it will still be important to have a section <br />with tenant panels. <br />City Council Work Session / February 12, 2018 <br />Page 2 of 5 <br />
