Item #1:     Request to Raise Height of Sign from 18-Feet to 20-Feet 6-Inches at 415 Janesville Avenue per Section 15.12.13.C.2.

Jeff Woods said this parcel is Zoned M-1, light industrial, and our Code allows a sign height of up to 24-feet with Planning Commission approval. The request is for a 20-foot 6-inch sign. The sign would not cause a problem with the vision triangle for drivers using this gas station. Jeff Woods asked how the proposed sign would be fastened to the existing footings? Jon Myers, of JNB Signs, said they will be using a beam mounted to both footings and the new sign would mount to that. With the "flag" portion of the sign pointing toward the street, it would be three to four inches past the existing column, but still within the right-of-way and not over the sidewalk.

Motion by Dennis Rybicke, seconded by Bill Camplin, to approve the sign height of 20-feet 6-inches at 415 Janesville Avenue per Code Section 15.12.13.C.2. The motion passed by a 6-0 voice vote.

Item #2:     Approval of Minutes and Adjournment

A motion to approve the Minutes of the October 23, 2007 meeting was made by Bill Camplin, seconded by Cwmn. Behrens, and passed by a 6-0 voice vote. A motion to adjourn was made by Dennis Rybicke, seconded by Cwmn. Behrens, and passed by a 6-0 voice vote. The meeting adjourned at 4:08 p.m.

Respectfully submitted,
