Mr. Holland stated only the price would be LED. He currently has two lines of prices, <br />`.• unleaded and diesel. <br />� <br />The Planning Commission clarified the LED sign would be allowed for both sides of the <br />sign. <br />BP only has one gas price sign, per side. <br />Vote on the amendment to the motion to allow 5 digital numbers: 5 Aye; 1 Nay. Motion <br />carries. <br />Tom Adams amended the motion, seconded by Bill Habein, to permit LED gas price <br />signs if the size and height are brought into conformance with current ordinance. <br />Mr. Habein stated we should have a new Sign Ordinance before we use this amendment <br />being proposed? What is conforming today may not be conforming after we look at the <br />Sign Ordinance. <br />Vice-Chair Adams stated that continuing a nonconfortnity is not following the <br />discussions we have had. We shouldn't let a nonconformity continue with a new sign. <br />Council Member Akerson stated that signs are expensive. Mr. Holland stated he is at a <br />competitive disadvantage. <br />Mr. Levenske stated through his profession representing customers, signs are expensive. <br />If Mr. Holland can wait, it would be better to wait. <br />Mr. Holland agrees that it is not a good idea to pass something that isn't right, although it <br />would be expensive for a new sign. <br />ROLL CALL VOTE on amendment: (Tom Adams amended the motion, seconded by <br />Bill Habein, to permit LED gas price signs if the size and height are brought into <br />conformance with current ordinance.)
