Plan Director Turk stated that petitioner appeared before Plan Commission in April for sketch approval. Due to noncompliance with adopted plans and ordinances, that request was denied.

The sign will be white and illuminated with red LED. Discussion took place regarding the LED illumination in place of the neon tubing. Petitioner’s representative, Don Nummerdor of Sign Effectz, stated that the LED is a low cost new technology and would be difficult to differentiate from the neon tubing.

This resolution was read by title only. Commissioner Brodel made a motion to approve. Alderman Madden seconded. Plan Director Turk stated that the Moorland corridor is zoned for residential use. In 2001 the Comprehensive Plan Committee was deadlocked with a 3-3 vote on what to do with this area. Half of the Committee voted for equestrian estates and half wanted a business park. The City has retained Vandewalle & Associates to develop an Economic Development Strategic Plan. This draft will be presented to Committee next Wednesday for their initial review. One preliminary finding is that the corridor can support limited office type development and light industrial. Due to numerous inquiries for development in this area, Staff recommends a limited term moratorium for rezonings, land divisions, and building site and operation plans. This will allow the completion process for the Economic Development Strategic Plan and provide time to decide whether or not to amend adopted plans and ordinances. Upon a roll call vote, Resolution #P.C. 079-2003 was Adopted with a 6-1 vote. Commissioner Hulbert voted No. NEW BUSINESS PLACED ON FILE No action intended for these items.
