CITY COUNCIL <br />CITY OF RAMSEY <br />ANOKA COUNTY <br />STATE OF MINNESOTA <br /> <br />The Ramsey City Council conducted a special meeting on Tuesday, October 1, 1996, at the <br />Ramsey Municipal Center, (lower level) 15153 Nowthen Boulevard NW, Ramsey, Minnesota. <br /> <br />Members Present: <br /> <br />Mayor Glen Hardin <br />Councilmember Carolyn Beahen <br />Councilmember Sheila Beyer <br />Councilmember Kenneth Peterson <br />Councilmember Gerald Zimmerman <br /> <br />Also Present: <br /> <br />City Administrator Ryan Schroeder <br />Zoning Administrator Sylvia Frolik <br />Economic Development Commission Chairperson Ken Wagner <br /> <br />CALL TO ORDER <br /> <br />Mayor Hardin called the special meeting of the City Council to order at 6:03 p.m. <br /> <br />CITIZEN INPUT <br /> <br />None. <br /> <br />APPROVE AGENDA <br /> <br />Consensus was to approve the agenda as presented. <br /> <br />CONSENT AGENDA <br /> <br />None <br /> <br />COUNCIL BUSINESS: <br /> <br />Case #1: Request for a Conditional Use Permit for an Off-Site Advertising <br /> Sign; Case of Holm's Super Bowl, Inc. <br /> <br />Zoning Administrator Frolik stated that this case was tabled at the regular Council meeting to allow <br />staff more time to research possibilities. Ms. Frolik talked with Mr. Dubats and he is able to <br />provide space on a sign. It's not the space the SuperBowl wanted, but they will take what they can <br />get. They would like to discuss this further. <br /> <br />City Administrator Schroeder presented proposals for a couple different signs - a 13' x 14' (cost <br />$9,458 for one sign) and an 8' x 10' (cost 4,839 for one sign). There would be some electrical <br />work if the sign would be lit plus the structure to hold the sign and that would be brick or wood. <br />There would be a 2' by 7' wide spot for Holm's SuperBowl but they were looking for 96 square <br />feet so this is significantly less. He inquired if Council is interested in this idea with these prices. <br />If so, what do you think of the general schematic of the sign. He added that these are replaceable <br />signs that are "$300 a shot". He thought that staff should meet with area businesses to find out <br />their interest in participation of a sign such as this. <br /> <br />Councilmember Peterson inquired what the cost estimate for the brick may be. <br /> <br />City Council/October 1, 1996 <br /> Page 1 of 5 <br /> <br /> <br />
