City Council Meeting Minutes February 20, 2018 Page 6 of 16 Councilmember Maloney asked Councilmember Stolzmann which criteria she was concerned about. Councilmember Stolzmann stated this is not a landmark sign or iconic, rather a new sign so it does not meet the downtown sign manual criteria. Director Zuccaro stated the downtown sign manual has certain criteria, including the ability to apply for a PUD for a waiver but it then references the same critena. It is a circular process but it seems there was intent for waiver criteria but it was not completed. Councilmember Leh stated he appreciates Councilmember Stolzmann close reading of the rules, but noted as the sign code is written it is circular and should be interpreted as staff has done. Attorney Light noted the Downtown Sign Manual sets up the possibility of a waiver but then doesn't give an option for the waiver in the PUD process; there is an inherent conflict in the code Council has the option to interpret the rules Councilmember Stolzmann stated she feels it is arbitrary to not apply the criteria She does not feel the PUD meets the cntena Mayor Muckle stated it appears clear the intent was to allow waivers Attorney Light stated Council may adopt the resolution upon a finding that with respect to the conflicting language in the downtown sign manual it was the intent to allow for requests for increases in height, area, and number of signs and therefore it is not absolutely required a sign meet those specific standards with respect to this application. Roll call vote: Motion passed 5 — 2; no votes from Mayor Pro Tem Lipton and Councilmember Stolzmann.
