COMMUNICATIONS
Planning Director Hays advised that the owners of Round Table Pizza
located at the Town and Country Shopping Center wish to add some small
flags to either side of the advertising sign which the Commission had
previously approved on the clock tower. The applicant indicated that
when the original approval was granted, they had assumed that the flags
were a part of the approval, however, they were advised by the Planning
Director that the addition of the flags would have to come back before
the Planning Commission for approval.
The Planning Commission conducted a lengthy discussion regarding
the matter and tried to determine why this additional signage had not
been included on the original drawing. After further discussion, a
motion was made -by Commissioner Pilkington, seconded by Commissioner Cole,
that the 6 flags be approved as presented, with the size not to exceed
the tallest capital letters. Motion failed on a 3 to 2 vote with two
Commissioners abstaining.
After additional- discussion, a motion was made by Commissioner
Carr, seconded by Commissioner Moore, to deny the request. The motion
was passed on a 3 to 2 vote with two Commissioners abstaining. The
Commission did indicate to the applicant that he could come back at
the next Planning Commission meeting with a colored scale drawing of
his request and.theY would reconsider it at that time.
