Planning Commission to look at the various sites for the signs. At that time it was <br /> decided that the earlier proposed signs were too large and the locations would not be <br /> permitted. The new design hugs up close to the corner of a building and the signs are <br /> smaller. Proposed locations are Clearwater Creek, Wells Fargo and by the Post Office. <br /> The signs would only include a logo and an arrow, no advertising. <br /> Mrs. Ziesemer's next step will be meeting with the business owners where the sign <br /> locations are proposed, as well as working with Mike Loven, Street Superintendent on <br /> City and County Road locations. There will need to be some type of agreement approved <br /> by the City Attorney. The Planning Commission gave permission to pre-sell the signs. <br /> She will provide an update at the April Planning Commission meeting. <br /> APPROVAL OF MINUTES: <br /> A motion was made by Deb Brown, seconded by Cheri Seils,to approve the February 17, <br /> 2011 Minutes as corrected. All members voted"aye". Motion carried. <br /> ZONING ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT: <br /> The Zoning Administrator was not present and the Planning Commission had no <br /> comments. <br /> OPEN FORUM: <br /> John Derksen stated that he has had a number of residents ask when the road to <br /> SuperValu will be constructed(from Olson Street) so they can walk to the store. With <br /> NFK closed,there is no way for residents to walk to the grocery store. Mr. Derksen was <br /> asked to contact Chris at SuperValu and explain the needs for the roadway for the <br /> walkers. <br /> Council Member Akerson asked if this would be a trail or a road. The Planning <br /> Commission clarified that it will be a road. <br /> Mr. Habein stated that there is quite a bit of traffic coming from the area of the <br /> apartments through the Church for access to the highway. <br /> Mr. Adams asked to clarify a comment made during the bus garage discussion regarding <br /> the amount of TIF given to the grocery store. There were quite a few jobs created and <br /> that is something to keep in mind. The dollar amount of TIF quoted during that <br /> discussion was also inaccurate. <br /> Mr. Derksen stated he had heard approximately 6 months ago that the school was looking <br /> to use private companies for the bussing. If the school were allowed to move forward <br /> with the Industrial Park property and should private bussing happen in the future,the City <br /> would be left with a parcel in the Park not on the tax roll and not being used for the <br /> intended purpose. <br /> Minutes 3 <br /> Pequot Lakes Planning Commission <br /> March 17, 2011 <br />
