per year to 11 per year, and to reduce the per meeting payment to $75 per meeting. All <br /> �., members voted"aye". Motion carried. <br /> Applicant: City of Pequot Lakes <br /> Applicant requests an Ordinance Amendment Regarding Expansion/Replacement <br /> of Non-conforming Structures <br /> Mr. Marohn explained the Staff Report. The original portion of this section is easy to <br /> understand and this amendment is complex and not abundantly clear. Staff would need <br /> to explain it. <br /> Mr. Hallan suggested reducing the tiers to 3 rather than 4. A 20%addition is miniscule. <br /> Ms. Brown stated it looks confusing. It makes sense but is there a way to simplify it? <br /> A motion was made by Tom Adams, seconded by Bill Habein,to approve the amendment <br /> as submitted. All members voted"aye". Motion carried. <br /> Applicant: Stacy Hill,Sign Spot,for Mid-Minnesota Federal Credit Union <br /> Applicant requests a Conditional Use Permit for Additional Signage in the <br /> Commercial Zoning District <br /> Mr. Marohn explained the Staff Report. Marty Hill of Sign Spot was present, as well as <br /> Chuck Albrecht of Mid-Minnesota Federal Credit Union. When asked, Mr. Albrecht <br /> stated that there are flood lights under the eves of the building and that will be the only <br /> light for the signs. <br /> A motion was made by Bill Habein, seconded by John Derksen,to approve the <br /> Conditional Use Permit for Additional Signage, based on the following Findings of Fact: <br /> 1. The request for a conditional use permit is for additional signage than what is <br /> typically allowed by the code in the Commercial Zone. <br /> 2. The proposed sign meets the one foot setback requirement. <br /> 3. The proposed sign measures 3.99' x 9.82' (39.18 sq. ft.) will read, "Mid- <br /> Minnesota Federal Credit Union". <br /> 4. The code allows 45.8 sq. ft. (ten percent of building fagade) of wall signage for a <br /> structure in the Commercial Zone. <br /> 5. The existing structure has already been permitted for 39.18 sq. ft., the conditional <br /> use permit request is for 39.18 sq. ft. in additional signage. <br /> 6. The proposed sign would be located at the north entrance to the property. It <br /> would be visible to southbound traffic on Highway 371 and to patrons of the <br /> business on the adjacent property to the north. <br /> 7. The proposed sign will not be lighted. There is lighting under the eaves of the <br /> structure which may allow the sign to be visible at night. <br /> MINUTES 4 <br /> Pequot Lakes Planning Commission <br /> December 15, 2011 <br />
