Planning Department staff (Elaine Forbes) summarized a proposed ordinance changing the general advertising program: tightening refund/waiver/phase rules, clarifying wall-sign definitions, and increasing an annual inventory maintenance fee; staff said the package would generate $321,000 annually (about $168,000 from listed changes and $152,000 from the maintenance fee) and that the revenue is assumed in the FY2010 budget, so the ordinance should be moved forward to avoid a budget shortfall.
