Committee discusses schedule and format for sign ordinance public hearing
Summary
The Special Issues Committee discussed the sign ordinance's path to a public hearing at the Department of Community Affairs and the need to finalize a hearing format; staff said the hearing is being scheduled and the committee will be informed.
Committee members on Feb. 3 asked for an update on the city’s sign ordinance and whether a public hearing with the Department of Community Affairs (DCA) would be required. Committee members agreed the ordinance is moving forward and staff said they are working on the hearing format and scheduling.
Councilor (unnamed in the transcript) asked whether the sign ordinance needed a public hearing; staff member Kale (mentioned in the discussion) said the ordinance had been given to the office responsible for scheduling a public hearing and that the city is working on the format. Committee members were told the hearing is “coming” and staff is arranging details.
No formal motion or vote was recorded on the sign ordinance at the Feb. 3 meeting; the committee’s discussion was limited to scheduling and format questions and a separate agenda item covered related event requests.
Committee members indicated interest in proceeding with sign-ordinance public outreach and noted it will come back to the committee for formal hearing scheduling once staff finalizes the format.
