City Council Meeting Minutes April 18, 2017 Page 8 of 12 Councilmember Maloney stated he conceptually supports wayfinding, but agrees the proposed design for entryways are not readable and not in great locations. Mockups would be helpful for the gateway signs. Councilmember Keany agreed that monument gateway signs should be prioritized. He likes the directional signs. He supports option four as presented. He would like to see mockups of the gateway signs to see how they look. He agreed it makes sense to look at the budget to see where carryover priorities are before funding this project. Mayor Muckle stated his support for option four and is ready to spend the money on getting this done. He likes the mockup idea to see what works best. Mayor Pro Tem Lipton agreed with Mayor Muckle and Councilmember Keany. He noted designing signs by committee is a no win situation. He stated there is general consensus for the signs. It is imperfect but we should move forward. Mayor Muckle moved to approve phase one, option four and approve monument signs to be installed once the mockups are done and there is consensus they are readable. Mayor Pro Tem Lipton seconded. Councilmember Loo stated that before we spend money on this we should compare this to other budget priorities for the carryforward money. Councilmember Maloney stated he can support option four. Councilmember Stolzmann stated she can't support this project until all of the carryforward funds are discussed as a group and projects prioritized. Roll call vote: motion failed 3-3.
