Mr. Dunham feels that anyone wishing <br />to advertise off-premise with a portable sign or a free standing permanent sign <br />regardless of the zoning of the property on which the sign is to be located, should <br />be allowed to do so. Joe Smith of La Porte Feed agreed with Mr. Dunham's <br />request. Mr. Smith's business which is located off Spencer Highway is barely visible <br />from the highway. He feels he needs to be able to advertise his business off-premise. <br /> <br />A straw vote was taken to determine whether or not to place the sign issue on the <br />agenda for public hearing. After additional discussion, Doug Martin made a motion <br />requesting the sign issue be placed on the agenda for public hearing. The motion <br />was denied with three (3) votes in favor and two (2) opposed (four (4) affirmative <br />votes are necessary to pass a motion). <br /> <br />4) REVIEW OF COMPREHENSIVE PLAN UPDATES <br /> <br />Comprehensive Plan <br /> <br />A straw vote was taken to present the Comprehensive maps at the public hearing. <br />All were in favor. <br /> <br />Staff recommended that the Planning & Zoning Commission hold the public hearing <br />Thursday, October 17, 1991 at 7:00 PM. <br />The Commission approved the recommendation. <br /> <br />5) ADJOURN <br /> <br />A motion to adjourn was made by Lola Phillips and was seconded <br />by Eugene Edmonds. The meeting adjourned at 7:35 PM. <br /> <br />The next meeting/public hearing will be October 17, 1991. <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br />Peggy Lee, Community Development Secretary <br /> <br />Approved this the 17th day of October, 1991 <br /> <br />Inge Browder, Planning & Zoning Commission Chairman <br />
