AUTO PLAZA SIGN
2 John Scharer, City Manager briefly went over the report regarding the auto plaza sign.
3 There has been some alterations made since the installation. The intensity of the
4 lights have. been decreased, intervals between messages has been increased, increased
5 length of time .message is displayed, animation and/or graphics not to be utilized.
6 The State standard for electronic reader board is for the message to be shown a
7 minimum of 4 seconds and off 1 second.. The time the readerboard is operating is
s from 6 a.m. till 10 p.m. The offsite backlit billboard has been tentatively agreed upon
9 not to be constructed.
to 'The City Attorney looked at alternatives such as removing the sign, significantly
~i altering the structure of'the sign or significantly altering the use of the sign. It was the
12 City Attorney's opinion that the City Council has ability to control the operation of the
13 sign rather than removing or altering the sign.
14 Mr. Haddad, 615 North Fair Street (People Involved in Proper Planning -spoke
15 .regarding the memorandum .Council received from People Involved in Proper
16 Planning. Some of the issues regarding the sign are:
17 1. Violation of the adopted PCD.
1g 2. Violation. of the zoning ordinance
19 3. Exceeds the approved design -being 4 1/2 feet higher.
20 4. Violation of obstructing a drainage channel.
21 5. Violation of sign ordinance
22 6. Non compliance with CEQA
23 7. Non compliance with Outdoor Advertising Act
24
25 It is the recommendation of the People Involved in Proper Planning to remove the
26 sign and sell it. If the sign is to remain it must be set back from the highway and
27 lowered to 20' in height without any readerboard. The Council would have to.modify
28 the provisions to reduce the number, design and area of other signs for the project.
Page 370, Vol. 26 August 5, 1991
1 We do not feel. it is unreasonable to accept anything less thanremoval or;modification
2 within those perimeters.
Jed .Clark, 5 Kazen Way (People Involved 'in. P"roper Planning) -Council.. has
continually stated that there would be only qne: sign,, no flags; and "no balloons except
for weekends and, `holidays when in fact, each dealership is entitled to .have a free
standing monument "--sign. as well as wall mounted 5igris" totaling 27 signs measuring 5' x
10'.
8 COUNCIL RESPONSE
9 Michael .Davis; spoke on behalf of the sign ,and the revenue the auto mall. will bring- in
to in order to keep .up .our current. level of services of fire, ambulance and: police, The
u monument signs .mentioned in the sign report will be on the" 'internal. streets of the
12 auto row not to be een from the highway.
13 Brian.Sobel, commented on the definition of the quality of life' in this City .and other
la cities. Readerboards are-not bad" technology moves -along and progress will be made.
15 'The fact,is some like the sign, some do~not.
16 I:ynn Woolsey, if the City Council has "the ability to control the operation of the" sign;
17 then I think we should turn it off. Then, consider what can be 'done, either take. it
18 down, put up a modified sign or significantly modify the current" sign.
1~ Nancy Read,. I would" like to see the Council :give alternatives to the sign. `Once we
20 have compiled a list'maybe we can make "some good decisions.
21 Jack Cavanagh, I .support. the sign, contrary to remarks made by some of :the council,
• 22 ~ we had very concise "plans on this table. I condemn the many orchestrated petitions
23 throughout the state. from Eureka to Sacramento and L.os Angeles. I am here to
2a govern. the :City of :Petaluma not the State of California. He believes there is as many
25 silent majority for ,the" sign'as those' opposed to it.
z •
26 ~ Bonnie Nelson, 'The silent majority has not been coming into chambers and writing, as
27 .many letters; but there-have been quite a few phone, calls. Numerous comments from
2s ~ -people who would be furious. if we.tear down the: sign. What is being sold are very
29 modern cars .that travel, down our freeways in and past our cities. There is .nothing
30 Victorian.~about .them. I'm perplexed, this one modern thing; a readerboard is ao
31 ~ extremely.offensve.._ I wouldn't.like to see. the readerhoard on KentuckyS_treet or "D"
32 Street.

August 5, 1991 Vol. 26,~
Page 371
1 I do not. see a lot of Victorian structures on our freeways and I do not feel that it
2 stands for all of what Petaluma represents.
3 Sobel, would like. the People Involved in Proper Planning to think about other
a alternatives besides taking the sign down or reducing it to ground level.
5 Alternatives listed by the Council with regard to the sign:
6 1. Turn off sign
7 2. Tear it down
s 3. Significantly alter the sign
9 4. Community Service Announcements (Bill in D.C.that would allow states
io to approve the use of community service messages)
11 5. Change color of the red plastic letters
12 6. Lengthen the time between the messages and Lengthen the time the
13 messages are displayed.
14 7. Control graphic capabilities.
15 8. Control hours of operation.
16 9. Repaint the sign to reduce starkness
17 10. Enforce the provisions that we have within the PCD regarding balloons,
1s pennants,. banners etc.
19 11. Implement .exter_sive landscaping plan.
20 12. Adopt an ordinance prohibiting electronic readerboards adjacent to the
21 freeway within the City limits of Petaluma.
22 13. Reduce the amount of cars displayed on lots
23 14. Tone down the intensity of'lights surrounding parking lots
24 15. Display the time and temperature more often.
25 16. Do away with monument signs on freeway.
26 17. No window advertising except for name of the dealer
27 18. Large boulders around base of sign
2s Sobel, would like to see each. of the concern from People Involved in Proper Planning
29 addressed, and to have some response from the auto dealers.
3o City Manager, John Scharer, suggested a meeting to be held on September 9 at 7:00
31 p.m. to resp ond to each. of the areas of concern that have been presented and to have
32 the auto dealers attend the meeting.
