2016.03.28 Council Agenda Item 09
Summary
Public Hearing on an amendment to the Zoning and Site Plan Review Ordinance to permit off-premise signs in the Business Professional District where egress to a lot is located off-premise.
A public comment period will be included with this item (5 minutes).
ACTION: Schedule order.
Description
The current ordinance prohibits off-premise signs in the BP District but allows them in other districts as long as they are associated with access to the property. Staff have prepared an amendment to allow off-premise signs where access to a property is located off-premise. This will serve the town’s interest in providing adequate visibility for the business community and protecting the town’s visual character.
Attached are a letter of introduction from Councilor McBrady, the proposed amendment language, and a memo from town staff.
