Commissioner Walker asked the typical amount of space allowed for each tenant on a multi-tenant <br /> sign in other communities. <br /> Planning Manager Larson replied that he is not aware of specifications for each tenant. He noted <br /> that another city considers signs in categories of up to two tenants or three or more. <br /> Senior Planner Anderson replied that one of the three signs that received a CUP which was for a <br /> multi-tenant building, is now a single tenant daycare and has a size of 225 square feet. He stated <br /> that the interchanges will be similar to the height of Armstrong and therefore the daycare sign <br /> would be a good example for comparison. He noted that all three signs that received CUPs are 75 <br /> feet in height with varying sign size. <br /> Planning Manager Larson noted that staff will bring this back to the Commission. He noted that <br /> planning staff is also working with economic development staff and MnDOT on temporary signage <br /> during the construction. <br /> Chairperson Bauer noted that it could also be helpful to reach out to the Anoka business owners <br /> impacted by construction to find out if there is anything that could be helpful. <br /> 8. COMMISSION/STAFF INPUT <br /> Planning Manager Larson stated that staff has been discussing how to provide the Commission <br /> with better information. He stated that he is used to having more lead time for staff to work with <br /> the applicant and address comments and concerns prior to the staff report and presented;plans. He <br /> stated that adding two weeks to the timeline should not impact the 60-day review timeline but <br /> should provide better information to the Commission. He stated that staff will continue to review <br /> that over the next few months. He noted that he would also like to look at updating the Zoning <br /> Code as a whole as there is room for improvement and reduction of redundancy. <br /> i <br /> Chairperson Bauer asked that staff also review the development fees and provide comparisons of <br /> other communities. <br /> r <br /> Planning Manager Larson noted that the development fees in Ramsey are much cheaper than <br /> Brooklyn Park. <br /> Senior Planner Anderson replied that staff has completed that type of analysis in the past and <br /> Ramsey falls in the middle. I <br /> Councilmember Woestehoff stated that the Council reviewed those fees in the last year. <br /> Chairperson Bauer commented that he would be interested in seeing that information. <br /> Planning Manager Larson provided an update on recent hiring of a Code Enforcement Officer. <br /> r' <br /> Planning Commission/May 26,2022 <br /> Page 19 of 20 <br />
