explained that 40-60% of the participation at the Festival comes from outside the City,

obtained, including those in the media area.

cover but also a full-page ad inside.

25.Discussion of Sign Ordinance
Director of Planning Gary Thornhill stated staff did not prepare a formal staff report on
this item, but were requesting direction from the Council.
Bruce Sparks, 27464 Commerce Center Drive, owner of Sparks Furniture, thanked
members of the Council for offering small business loans to aid businesses in obtaining
permanent signs, but requested that businesses simply be left alone and asked that
enforcement of the sign ordinance be suspended and the ordinance rewritten to allow
more freedom for business owners.
Minnie Jimenez, 41946 Main Street, owner of Natural Looking Nails, stated without
a banner, her business will not survive and asked that the sign ordinance be re-written.

sign ordinance.
Jeanne Kearns, 27625 Jefferson Avenue, Ste 100, presented the City Clerk with
signatures of businesses against the sign ordinance and stated businesses did not
desire loans or further debt, but requested a re-working of the sign ordinance.
Don Gago, 41973 6th Street, addressed the Council in favor of re-writing the sign
ordinance to allow more freedom for business owners.
Councilmember Parks stated the City has a temporary sign ordinance because the
county ordinance did not allow any temporary signs. He stated he wants to be
sensitive to businesses but there need to be conditions governing these temporary
signs, and suggested that periods of time be extended for temporary signs when a
permanent sign is applied for.
Director of Planning Gary Thornhill made the following suggestions.
1 .With respect to temporary signs, the current ordinance requirement is 45 days
with one 30 day extension. If Council desires, this could be modified to allow
interim signs for 6 months, with a possible extension of 6 months.
Agenda/l 21493 1 1 11/03/96

December 14, 1993
2.Require business owner to apply for a permanent sign prior to permitting a
second extension.
3.With regard to events, reduce requirement of time between events to 30 days
instead of 60 day period.
4. Allow two temporary signs, back to back.
Councilmember Parks suggested this be agendized and recommended a lead person be
appointed from the business community to work with staff. Mr. Sparks stated he
would be willing to represent the business community and work with staff.
City Attorney Field advised the Council that since the current sign ordinance is a zoning
ordinance, amendments must go first to the Planning Commission, and suggested that
this matter be referred to the Planning Commission to expedite the process.
Mayor Mufioz requested that no citations be issued during this period, but requests for
voluntary compliance continue.
Chief Building Official Tony Elmo asked that the enforcement program be suspended
until this matter is resolved, stating his desire is to protect the credibility of the Code
Enforcement Officer.
Councilmember Birdsall stated she is in favor of reviewing this matter once more, but
three years ago businesses were involved in drafting the current sign ordinance, and
she hopes that this matter will not continue to surface every several years. She asked
the business community to "police themselves" to avoid problems that were present
three years ago before the sign ordinance took effect.
It was moved by Councilmember Parks, seconded by Councilmember Stone to refer
this matter to the Planning Commission to conduct hearings regarding amendments to
the ordinance and further directed staff to waive enforcement for a period of 90 days.
The motion was unanimously carried.
It was moved by Councilmember Parks, seconded by Councilmember Stone to continue
the meeting until 1 2:00 AM. The motion was unanimously carried.

Councilmember Parks stated he does not have a problem with a dirt road in this area
and stated he feels that a $20,000 improvement is not necessary.
Mayor MuFioz stated that if a dirt road is allowed, he feels the City should be held
harmless in case of emergency.
City Attorney Field asked if the Council wanted to amend Condition 42 to change the
definition of "all weather" road.
Director of Planning Gary Thornhill stated (1) he needs direction for future applications
to be consistent with approvals, and (2) if second units will be permitted without all-
weather access, the ordinance needs to be amended.
City Attorney Field suggested reopening the public hearing and continuing this item for
30 days.
Mayor Mufioz re-opened the public hearing at 11:37 PM.
