Commission asks staff to investigate new signage and failing landscape screening
Summary
Commissioners asked staff to check permits for recently installed signs and to enforce site‑plan requirements after the chair flagged dead arborvitae used as screening at a local business; staff said code enforcement will follow up.
Several commissioners raised concerns about recent signage installations and whether those signs were permitted; staff said it will investigate and require submittal of sign permits if they are missing.
The chair also called out a failing landscape screen behind a local business and urged code enforcement to inspect and require the property owner to replace dead plantings, noting the site plan requires landscaping to be maintained. "If it dies, you rebuild it," the chair said when discussing the arborvitae and asked staff to follow up with code enforcement rather than initiating a show‑cause hearing at this time.
Commissioners said they will monitor the signage and site maintenance follow‑up before considering further enforcement actions. Staff agreed to investigate permit status and, if a permit is absent or the installation is noncompliant, to require corrective action.
