RE: St Croix Mall -Signs
I am in agreement with your reading of the ordinance
and also agree that this is a policy issue to be
resolved by the City Council.
The stand on this matter is however not clear. You
should check what other businesses in the City have
done. For example Super America typically has
a lighted band on their gas canopies. This may have
already set a precedent if such a situation exists
in the City.
A compromise also would be that the lighting must
be turned off during non business hours.
I should also not that I am not necessarily in
agreement with your recommendation on the pylon
sign. I don't think the flag pole is necessary and
it sets a questionable standard for possible future
cases. This however should also be stressed as
a policy issue for the council to decide.
In general, I don't suggest that you make a big
deal over the matter if the council decides to give
away the "farm ".
See me should you care to discuss further.
