STAFF REPORT <br /> Application: Ordinance Amendment,Signs in City Parks <br /> Applicant: City of Pequot Lakes <br /> Agenda Item:3(b) <br /> Background: The Pequot Lakes Park Board has recently asked the City about installing signs <br /> to identify City Parks throughout the City of Pequot Lakes. Under the current City Ordinance <br /> this would perhaps not be allowed. The Planning Commission has approved the language <br /> change to the Ordinance. The new language will clearly allow the Park Board, or any other City <br /> department,to install necessary signs. <br /> Amended Ordinance: The following is Section 7.1, the Signs, section of the Ordinance, <br /> amended as per the Planning Commissions review. <br /> 7.1 Sism <br /> 2. Required Permits. All signs are considered structures and require a Zoning Permit, <br /> except signs placed by the City, County or State to relate the laws or ordinances, or <br /> to promote the health, safety and welfare of the community, which are <br /> exempt,and signs exempted in 7.1(3). <br /> Planning Commission Direction: The Planning Commission can recommend that the City <br /> Council approve or deny the application,or the Planning Commission can table this application <br /> for further consideration. <br /> Staff Recommendation:We recommend that the amendment be approved. <br /> City of Pequot Lakes Staff Report 6 <br /> March,2008 <br />
