Staff proposes Ripon sign-code review after zoning rewrite
Summary
Staff told the Plan Commission the city’s sign code has not been substantially updated since the early 1990s and should be reviewed after the zoning rewrite to address modern LED signage and contradictions between the sign ordinance and zoning code.
Staff reported that once the zoning-code rewrite is complete, the next major project should be a review of the city’s sign code, which has not been substantially updated since the early 1990s. Staff noted technology changes (for example, LED signage) and conflicts between sign provisions placed in both the zoning code and the separate sign ordinance.
Commissioners agreed the sign code is lengthy (staff described it as roughly 40 pages with many district-specific provisions) and recommended staff and consultant work together to streamline and modernize the ordinance. No timeline beyond a general plan to address the sign code next year was adopted at the meeting.
