Stated there were signs along Newport Avenue and Irvine Boulevard advertising "BasicProfits. com" and asked that those signs be removed. Thanked staff for the update on the sign ordinance. Presented for the record the following excerpt from a letter signed by the Rigbys of Acorn Naturalists' "We would like to express our sincere appreciation for the work of Elizabeth Binsack throughout the planning process. She is a dedicated professional who watches out for the best interests of the City while allowing sensible discussions to take place over design rules. The City is very fortunate to have someone of her caliber as Director of Community Development." Commissioner Kozak added that, although the letter mentions the Director by name, he felt the remarks applied to everyone on the staff. Shared that during her recent visit to Great Britain she stayed at a little inn outside Aberdeen where she noticed a local newspaper with an article reporting on the local Planning Commission and found it very interesting to read that planning circumstances/problems there seemed very similar to those here.
