Planning commission discusses sign-code changes including 28-foot height cap and banned sign types

Associate Planner Johanna Blanco presented a sign-code workshop that proposed a 28-foot maximum sign height on highway frontage with a maximum lot sign area of 260 square feet and an individual sign face cap of 160 square feet. For non-highway frontage, staff proposed a 20-foot maximum height with a 160-square-foot cumulative sign area. Blanco and Community Development Director Cory Shurtleff also discussed sign lighting rules and a list of prohibited sign types, including feather flags, sandwich boards and inflatable signs.
