City Council Meeting Minutes June 18, 2013 Page 12 of 12 Council member Sackett supported staff's recommendation. Council member Loo commented she did not approve the signage and the City Council asked for more choices on colors and design. She addressed branding and stated the City already has branding on the letterhead. She stated the signage doesn't work and changing the branding must have community buy -in. Council member Jasiak stated the signage is a result of the best of intentions, but she agreed it did not work. She felt what was needed was big directional signage. She suggested concentrating on directional signage and putting the branding aside for now. City Manager Fleming explained the staff brought the signage issue before the City Council to receive direction. He suggested waiting for results of the parking analysis would be helpful to the signage project. The design can then be revisited. Mayor Pro Tem Dalton agreed there can be improvements made to the signage. He apologized to the Planning staff for the miscommunication. City Manager Fleming stated branding is difficult because it is hard to please everyone. CITY ATTORNEY'S REPORT No items to report.
