SUMMARY OF DISCUSSION
Vice-chairperson Matt Kurtenbach called the Board of Adjustment
to order on Thursday, June 7, 2007 at 5:00 PM in the Council Chamber at
City Hall. Members present were Larry Klingbile, alternate-Mike Keating,
alternate-Jim Pederson, and Kurtenbach. Dick Peterson was available on
speaker phone. David Rusten and Jay Vanduch were absent. Others
present were Tom Richter, Executive Director of the Swiftel Center, and
City Engineer Jackie Lanning.
Item #3 – Tom Richter stated the main sign would be expanded with a full
color board. It would increase the building sponsor area. There are
presently six (6) sponsor signs, and they are requesting three (3) more. That
would add about 50 more square feet. He added that they are a public
event facility with many events. Richter stated that nearby signs are 560
square feet and 294 square feet. He felt signs would enhance the facility
and the area.
Klingbile asked if the sign diagram in the packet would be the
actual sign. Richter said the old sign would be removed, and the new sign
would be in the same place. The new sign would not be wider. The digital
display would be larger, and the bottom of the new sign would not be
lower than the old sign. Kurtenbach stated that Daktronics had other signs
along the interstate, and the area would benefit from a large sign for
viewing. D. Peterson also supported a larger sign in this area. Richter said
he would rather keep one sign instead of installing several smaller ones.
Kurtenbach said the location would be the compelling reason for his
support.
The meeting was adjourned.
