Motion carried. <br /> ZONING ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT: <br /> Bittner pointed out the 9 permits issued and the 14 letters or emails sent and received <br /> since the last meeting. <br /> The following Potential Violations/Enforcement Actions were discussed: <br /> 1. Gary Peterson — Staff will advise Mr. Peterson to file the Notice of Termination <br /> with the MPCA. <br /> Council Member Sjoblad asked the Planning Commission to take another look at lighted <br /> signs. Gas stations can have digital price signs but the Legion or Chamber cannot have <br /> digital signs which are easier to change. He would not like to allow blinking signs,but <br /> the Legion would like a sign indicating their events. The School also wanted a sign by <br /> the Highway. It seems like we need to get into a little bit more modern age. People are <br /> asking for it; some signs are non-obtrusive. Council Member Akerson supported the <br /> idea. <br /> The Planning Commission pointed out the Comprehensive Plan calls for no lighted <br /> signs. Digital signs have been discussed almost annually over the past several years. <br /> The City could be on a very slippery slope. <br /> If someone sees something unique,take a picture and note it. <br /> ADJOURNMENT: <br /> A motion was made by Planning Commission Member Hallan, seconded by Planning <br /> Commission Member Brown,to adjourn the meeting.
