1. Call to Order.
Chair Brad Fyle called the special meeting to order at 4:30 p.m.
2. Consideration to review Monticello Zoninp, Ordinance, Chapter 4, Section 5 - Signs.
Angela Schumann indicated that the purpose of the meeting is to review the Monticello
Zoning Ordinance as it relates to signs in Chapter 4, Section 5. When the City Council
approved the Temporary Sign Ordinance, the motion made by Councilmember Gabler was
to allow the ordinance to go forward if and such that the Planning Commission and City
Council hold a joint workshop to review temporary signs and permanent signs as a whole.
Schumann reviewed a presentation with the group defining signs, types of signs, where
signs can be placed on a property for a single user, non - freeway bonus, and a multi- tenant,
non - freeway bonus. Also reviewed what are considered temporary signs, the Temporary
Sign Ordinance, community event signage and speech, and non - commercial signage.
Schumann stated that staff is recommending a proposed amendment to the ordinance for
non - commercial speech signage, which would address the community event signage. The
changes include the amount of days a sign can be placed before an event, and regulations
for placing signage on vacant property.
The group was in consensus with the staff recommended changes to the ordinance as
presented by Community Development Director Schumann.
