HUSTON, CITY MANAGER FROM: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT SUBJECT: PRICING INFORMATION ON TEMPORARY BANNER RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council uphold the Planning Commission's denial of a request to place pricing information on a temporary banner to be located at 13102 Newport Avenue. BACKGROUND This item was continued from the November 18, 1991 City Council iiieeting at the applicant's request. The applicant's letter is attached as Attachment A. On October 28, 1991, the Planning Commission denied the applicant's request to place pricing information on a temporary banner to be displayed at 13102 Newport Avenue, #106, by Minute Order. The applicant has requested an appeal of the Planning Commission's decision by the City Council. This letter is attached as Attachment B. The applicant's request is for approval of pricing information to be displayed on a temporary banner. The subject pricing information will be placed on a four -foot by twenty -foot white banner which will read, in red letters, "Appetizers, house wine and margaritas from 99(� Monday through Saturday." The banner will be on the west elevation of the restaurant, located at the southeast corner of the intersection of Irvine Boulevard and Newport Avenue, addressed as 13102 Newport Avenue. The applicant has submitted a Temporary Use Permit application and fee, as required by Tustin City Code. The applicant was eligible to have his Temporary Use Permit for a temporary banner approved on November 3, 1991, in accordance with the Sign Code requirement allowing banners to be displayed on a quarterly basis with a Temporary Use Permit. Pricing information on banners is, however, prohibited by the new Sign Code that is now officially in effect. City Council Report Pricing Information on Temporary Banner December 2, 1991 Page 2 This item does not require a public hearing, therefore no formal public notification was made. The applicant and property owner were f orwarded copies of the meeting' s agenda and staf f reports f or this item. DISCUSSION After review of the information provided by the applicant, the Planning Commission felt that it was inappropriate for the Planning Commission to approve pricing information, given that pricing information was prohibited by the new Sign Code. To approve the subject request would be to encourage other requests to vary from the new Sign Code, and may set precedence to permit other variances. While there was no Code requirement prohibiting pricing information on temporary banners at the time the Commission acted on the subject Temporary Use Permit, it has been the policy of the Planning Commission to discourage its use. CONCLUSION The Community Development Department recommends denial of the request to authorize pricing information to be placed on a banner. po�r Becky Stone Assistant Planner CAS:BCS:rnm/faraday3.bcs Christine A.
