RESOLUTION #18-88
Resolution to approve Karde’s Highway 38 location Pole Sign request
WHEREAS, Dean Cox, Karde’s owner, has requested that he be allowed to install a replacement pole sign on the NE corner of 2nd Street and N. Cedar Street to replace the existing Karde’s sign in that approximate location, and
WHEREAS, The Planning & Zoning Board has considered the request and has recommended that the pole sign be permitted at the proposed location if the space between grade and the bottom of the sign can be increased from the proposed 2.5’ to 8’ or if the sign, as proposed, can be moved to the NW corner of the lot, and
WHEREAS, The City Council finds that the pole sign is appropriate for this business at this location and should be approved, contingent upon the owner agreeing to the recommendation of the Planning & Zoning Board to relocate the proposed sign from the SE corner of the lot to the NW corner of the lot or to ensure 8’ of clearance between grade and the bottom of the sign, with the further understanding that the owner would be required to obtain a building permit and to construct the sign entirely outside of the ROW.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of Monticello, Iowa does hereby approve of the Pole Sign request at the Karde’s Hwy. 38 location contingent upon the owner agreeing to the recommendation of the Planning & Zoning Board to relocate the proposed sign to the NW corner of their lot or to ensure 8’ of clearance between grade and the bottom of the sign at the proposed location on the SE corner of the lot with the further understanding that the owner would be required to obtain a building permit and to construct the sign entirely outside of the ROW.
IN TESTIMONY WHEREOF, I have hereunto subscribed my name and caused the Great Seal of the City of Monticello, Iowa to be affixed hereto. Done this 16th day of July, 2018.
