Karen Zacko, Department of Safety and Inspections (DSI), gave a staff report on the application and appeal. Appellant: No one appeared. In opposition to the appeal: John Slade (3 Linder Court), chair of land use committee of District 1, said based on the review of materials presented by a representative of Holiday, the land use committee voted unanimously to oppose the variance request, in keeping with the White Bear Area Small Area Plan. He said they supported the goals of Traditional Neighborhood zoning and were in favor of transit and pedestrian uses. Councilmember Prince moved to close the public hearing. Yeas - 7 Nays - 0 Councilmember Prince said she had carefully reviewed the file, findings of staff, and appeal documents. She said the appellant claimed there was a procedural error by the Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA) in that the appellant was not allowed to re-open public hearing to provide testimony on additional ideas they had around the project. She said they were welcome to resubmit an application, but based on the findings on this appeal, she was convinced the BZA did not make any mistakes, and she moved to deny the appeal. Councilmember Bostrom said he wished a representative from Holiday was present. He said he felt having a dynamic sign fit right in with that active neighborhood, and Holiday had done a great job of cleaning up what had been a blighted corner for years. He said he didn't understand requiring monochromatic signs in this high tech age, and prominent signs were important for people driving on the highway looking for a place to get gas. He said if the City wanted to be business friendly and had people who had invested millions of dollars into the community, he didn't understand why the Council was stopping them from doing the maximum they could to maximize their investment. Councilmember Prince noted that both the County and Public Works recommended against the location of one of the signs from an engineering perspective. She said in terms of dynamic display, the time interval between message changes was an issue in addition to monochromatic. She said they and they could make some alterations and come back in terms of the issues Public Works had. Council President Stark spoke in support of the motion. He said he understood Councilmember Bostrom's perspective but felt the sign regulations were the sign regulations. He said if there was a desire to re-look at those, that would be the route to consider some changes.
