IX.  STAFF

Police Chief Aleck Shilaos wanted to bring to the attention of the Commission some problems with temporary signs. He was unable to attend the meeting so Francis Duzenack explained many temporary signs are being put up without Commission approval and are in violation of the Land Development Code. There are also several businesses placing temporary signs in the parkway, causing obstruction of vision for traffic. It was suggested the Police Department remove any signs placed in the public right of way. In the case of unapproved signs, it was recommended they be removed and if owners inquire as to their whereabouts, the guidelines and procedures should be explained to them. It was stated when an application comes before Planning and Zoning for temporary signs, the Commission will be very clear concerning time limits and where the signs can and cannot be placed.

Francis informed the Commission of the appointment of a new Council Person, Jeannie McEvoy. It was not yet known who will be the Council Person representing Planning and Zoning.

Gary Lyon asked about the purchase of the old Turner Lumber building. Francis explained the intention to rent the store to a retail business and use the lumber buildings for storage of equipment and vehicles used in the owner’s contracting business.
