Action on the Plan by the City Council is now requested . BackgEound : The Industrial. Commercial Commission and the Planning- Commission have reacted positively to the Plan with requests for some additional. work, to improve and strengthen certain components . The Council has heard public opinion through informal discussion and comments made at the public meetings held by the City Council and the Downtown Committee . A question and answer, sheet was prepared to address the most common questions and concerns . 1 have enclosed memos of July 13 , -i984 , which detail the discussion and actions of the ICC and Planning Commission However I will review here the major concerns raised by these commissions . 1 . The ! CC recommends further, consideration be given the mini-by-pass intersection at Sommerville/Spencer as a point of arrival . Rem s2ons e Ken Anderson ' s geometrics study of the mini-by-pass has clarified this intersection . The approach to the intersection will be at a rising elevation , above the land to the south . Therefore I think the ICUs concern has been addressed . As long as no tall landscaping is placed in the island created south of Sommerville and TH 101 , incoming traffic will easily view the shopping opportunities which exist on First Avenue . 2 . a . The ICC recommends further study to adopt either a PUD concept for the Downtown Redevelopment District and/or a design standards ordinance for the Downtown Redevelopment District to insure a development theme . 2 . b . The Planning Commission requests the resolution of zoning and land use issues and incorporation by ordinance of the requested signage and design criteria . Relpanse A number of options exist to deal with the zoning discrepancies and application of the design and sign criteria . If the plan is adopted the planning staff will come forth with options to resolve the zoning issues and will work, to codify the design and sign criteria . Allorwatlyes — ,j te y e--- : i .

The memo is to summarize their action at that meeting. BACKGROUND The Planning Commission received the attached staff report to assist in Choir discussion. The issue was handled very late on the Agenda and not a lot of discussion took place . However, the Planning Commission was basically supportive of the report with the desire to spend more time on the points raised in the following motion which was adopted unanimously : Khmitr/Rockne moved that the Planning Commission make a favorable recommendation to City Council- on the Downtown Revitalization Report subject to the resolution of zoning and land use issues and that both design cri-- teria in the development district and signage for develop- ment district he incorporated into in ordinnnce . jA/bn Att . 3 TO: S!wkupee Planniny Coxmi .

The following are issues raisod by the impiamentation portion- of the report which the ICC wa'y' Wish to reviQw : i 1 .

Does the ICC support the requirement that all, downtown properties bring their signs into cont-orrnance within five years of ii-,iplement<ition of new sign provisions?
