Memorandum
CASE LOG NO.: PC05-097
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
Shakopee Planning Commission
Mark McNeill, City Administrator
FROM: R. Michael Leek, Community Development Director
SUBJECT: TextAmendment Regarding Off-Premises Signage, Ordinance No.
738
MEETING DATE: October 18, 2005
INTRODUCTION:
On Tuesday, October 4, 2005 the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 738, an ordinance
allowing off-premises signs. At that meeting I incorrectly reported that the Planning
Commission had recommended approval of the proposed text amendment with revisions.
I want to first sincerely apologize to both the Council the Commission, and Ms. Klima
for my error in reporting the Commission's recommendation, and causing the
recommendation to be erroneously reported in Ms. Klima's memo. The error was not
made intentionally. The motion at the Commission to recommend approval of the text
amendment in fact failed on a 2-5 vote.
Because of this error, I have put this item on the Council agenda, so that ifit wishes, the
Council can consider the correct recommendation in determining whether to let the
ordinance stand as adopted.
ALTERNATIVES:
1) Offer a motion to suspend the rules, and reconsider Ordinance No. 738, an ordinance
allowing off-premises signage;
2) Let the adoption of Ordinance No. 738 stand (no action).
ACTION REQUESTED:
Either 1) offer a motion to suspend the rules, and reconsider Ordinance No. 738, an
ordinance allowing off-premises signage, or 2) let the adoption of Ordinance No. 738
stand (no action)
