Open Forum <br /> Tara Bunde from Leslie's Clothing, 31024 County Road 112, Pequot Lakes, <br /> addressed the Council. Ms. Bunde noted that she has owned Leslie's for six <br /> years and business was down this summer. She was recently informed that <br /> billboards are not allowed along the new highway alignment by the CSAH 11 <br /> interchange according to the City's zoning ordinances relating to off-site <br /> signs. Ms. Bunde noted that she wanted to bring this up before the Council <br /> as she is interested in placing a billboard at this location. <br /> Council Member Akerson stated that billboards are not allowed because the <br /> City could not control what is placed on the billboards as it could not be <br /> limited to Pequot Lakes and Breezy Point businesses. <br /> Council Member Pederson noted that signage directing people into Pequot <br /> Lakes will be something the City will be examining but those parameters are <br /> unknown at this time.
