Commission chooses roadway font, wood neighborhood signs and metal thoroughfare signs
Summary
Commission picked a roadway-style font for replaced street signs, agreed to use wood signs in neighborhoods and metal on major thoroughfares, and directed staff to prioritize replacing dilapidated signs on main roads.
The commission selected a roadway-style font for city street-sign replacements and agreed to use wooden signs in neighborhoods and metal blades on major thoroughfares.
Commissioners said the roadway font is similar to state-recommended styles and will be easiest to mix with existing signs. They directed staff to replace only dilapidated signs and to prioritize major thoroughfares such as Woodward for earlier replacement.
The motion passed by vote; staff emphasized the change is not a wholesale program but a gradual replacement as signs age or are damaged.
