The public hearing was opened by Mayor Kennedy at 7:05 p.m. Michael Lepore, appellant/applicant, provided background on site development plans and spoke in favor of Use Permit 85-1 for a free-standing 50 square foot pole sign. Michael Austin, Southland Corporation/7-Eleven Food Stores, spoke in favor of the pole sign, citing potential traffic hazards a monu- ment sign could cause.

There being no other speakers on the matter, the public hearing was closed at 7:10 p.m, by Mayor Kennedy. It was then moved by Hoesterey, seconded by Saltarelli, to approve Use Permit 85-1 to install a 50 square foot pole sign at 14460 New- port Avenue with the following conditions: 1) The backgrounds of the sign panels shall be white, matching the background of signs currently installed on the structure at subject location; 2) The pole cover shall be treated with a tex-coat material to match the type and color used on the structure at subject loca- tion; and 3) The existing "Little Kings" pole sign must be removed prior to issuance of sign permits authorizing the proposed sign. CITY C~)!IPdCII_ rtl',UTES ~- , Mayor Kennedy noted that the existing hE~avily signed area was approved under County jurisdiction; aesthetics is her primary con- cern; and ShP_ is certain staff would not have recommended a monu- ment siyn if they considered it a traffic hazard. The director of Community Development responded that should Council affirm Planning Commission's approval of a monument sign in this instance, staff would physically sight subject sign location to insure a sethack from the intersection and sidewalk in an area least critical to pedestrian and motorist visibility. Staff did not feel a monument sign would be a traffic hazard and recommended approval of same to the Planning Commission. He added that the City Code permits either a monument or pole sign, whereby pole signs require use p?r- mits and monument signs do not. The applicant stated that for a monument sign to he placed in an area for greatest visibility and to serve tenant needs properly, it should be prominent in the development, and would probably create a conflict/hazard. Councilman Edgar voiced his support of the motion. The motion carried 3-1, Kennedy opposed, freinke absent. 81 Mayor Kennedy offered appreciation and recognition of subject prop- erty's upgrading. 2.
