Council discussion followed regarding placement of a crosswalk on Hiline Road and alternate access onto school grounds. It was noted that school buses are not able to travel up the steep roads in the neighborhood. However, the area suggested for a crosswalk did not appear to be a safe section of the road for this type of use. Ms. Murray stated she spoke to School District No. 25 representatives and they are willing to install a gate to access school property near Eastpoint Drive. Jennifer Scow, 1623 Eastpointe Drive, and DeNae Jones, 719 Daybreak, shared their concerns regarding an additional crosswalk on Hiline Road near Syringa Elementary School. They stated that children are not walking down to the current crosswalk at a four- way stop located at Hiline and El Rancho to cross the road on their REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING 6 OCTOBER 4, 2012 way to school. Instead, children are walking along the canal and crossing at other sections along the road. Ms. Scow feels an additional crosswalk will benefit the children and is in the best interest of the City. She added that children do not always make good choices when walking along the road and drivers are not always watching for pedestrians. AGENDA ITEM NO. 7: This time was set aside for Council to PUBLIC HEARING accept comments from the public regarding –SIGN CODE potential amendments to the Pocatello Sign Code Section, Municipal Section 15.20. The proposal includes some editorial changes as well as adding historic district changeable signs. Mayor Blad opened the public hearing. Terri Neu, Assistant Planner, reviewed proposed changes to the Sign Code. She noted that the current Zoning Ordinance was changed in 2008 and part of the change included having the Hearing Examiner hold the public hearings for sign exceptions rather than the Planning and Zoning Commission. In addition, City staff has identified other changes regarding the sign code and these suggestions were discussed at a work session held on August 8, 2012. Ms. Neu stated the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of the proposed changes. It was noted that additional correspondence was received from Gene Crawford, 1125 Booth Drive, asking that the City reconsider prohibiting portable signs in all areas of Pocatello. Council discussion followed regarding signage requirements when a business closes. Greg Helm, 346 South Johnson Avenue, spoke in favor of the proposed ordinance and thanked the Historic Preservation Commission for addressing the needs of business owners in Old Town. He feels businesses in the Old Town district are more limited in advertisement and signage choices. Niki Taysom, Pocatello resident, expressed her concerns with changes to the sign code. Daniel Call, 615 South 19th Avenue, feels the proposed code changes are positive, but would like to incorporate the changes throughout the whole city, and not be limited to only Old Town businesses. Mayor Blad stated Yellowstone Avenue, 4th Avenue and 5th Avenue are state highways and are under the jurisdiction of the State of Idaho. REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING 7 OCTOBER 4, 2012 Theron Pollard, owner of Tee Pee Advertising and Westwood Discount, feels banners and temporary signs are an important way for businesses to promote specials and business owners need to have an economical way of helping their business thrive. Kathy Rogers, 9593 West Charlotte Drive, owns a business on 4th Avenue and would like to be able to use portable signs as a means of advertising in front of her business. She feels it is a creative and important way to advertise her business. Dennis Jablonski, 478 Arabian, is the owner of Sign-a-Rama, and is opposed to having only the Old Town district included in the area where portable signs are allowed. He feels portable signs are important to small business owners and other communities allow them. Gene Crawford, 1125 Booth Drive, stated he supports Old Town businesses. However, he objects to the wording of the proposed City Code that prohibits other areas in Pocatello from having portable signs. Mr. Crawford feels that shoppers benefit from the use of portable signs in order to know what is available for purchase. He feels the current code cannot be effectively enforced because he has noticed portable signs in the public right-of-way and on private property at various locations in the City. Idaho Lorax, Pocatello citizen, feels signs are a form of art and art in any form benefits the community. Council discussion continued regarding banner placement, maintenance and restrictions. It was noted that frequent windy conditions in the community causing damage, high maintenance and secure placement of portable signs and banners has been a past issue.

Council discussion followed regarding limiting portable signs in Old Town to provide a test stage for utilizing these types of signs. It was noted that information gleaned from this first phase can be utilized to modify the ordinance for consideration by the Council for the city as a whole. It was the consensus of the Council that the proposed changes are a good start for revamping the current sign code and a dialog needs to continue. REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING 8 OCTOBER 4, 2012 In response to questions from Council, Dean Tranmer, City Attorney, stated that consideration of portable signs for all zoning areas in Pocatello would require starting the process over again for consideration of changes to the proposed zoning ordinance. He explained that public hearing and notification requirements would need to be met. Discussion followed regarding the proposed zoning ordinance and some members of the Council stated they would like to review additional information that may allow portable signs in other areas of the city. Mr. Brown suggested that the proposed zoning changes be approved with the exception of banners, pennants, sails and festoons as referenced under Section 15.20.90 and that a study session be held to discuss this type of signage no later than March 1, 2013. Mr. Bray amended his motion asking that Council approve the amendments of the Pocatello Sign Code Section, Municipal Section 15.20 and instruct Legal Department staff to prepare an ordinance for consideration, with the exception of Section 15.20.090(b)(15) regarding the display of banners, pennants, sails and festoons; and that this section and further discussion regarding the use of portable signs in all areas of Pocatello come before the Council at a public hearing no later than March 1, 2013.
