Applicant.
Mr. Sherpenski spoke on behalf of Mr. Donceel, the owner. He described the wall
as five-foot high columns with round tops and a four-foot wood fence in between.
The wall is a concrete, block, stucco construction to match the body of the
residence. Ms. Nielsen queried about the material for the gate. Mr. Sherpenski
responded that it is wood also. He stated that the wall would not encroach on any
other property. Ms. Easler asked if the wall extended to the water. Mr.
Sherpenski explained that the owner would install a culvert in the future and the
wall was near but not to the water. Mr. Sherpenski responded to Ms. Easler's
question that the wood is pressure treated. Mr. Bapp confirmed Ms. Easler's
question that the wall meets building requirements.
Mr. Bowman made a motion and Ms. Nielsen seconded the motion to approve
the application for Request No. 99-19 as submitted. Motion carried unanimously.

2. Request No. 99-20, Budget Rental Revision (Ground Sign), Barry Frank,
Applicant.
The Board inspected the color rendition of the sign. Mr. Bapp furnished the
previous application Request No. 99-08 on the Budget Rental sign for this
meeting. Mr. Bowman queried if this sign met the 15-foot setback requirement.
Mr. Bapp stated that the sign met the current building code requirements for a
sign of this kind. Ms. Easler questioned why the column on the sign did not
match the columns on the building. Ms. Easler clarified that perhaps he could
include a base adding a blue accent to the bottom of the sign to which the Board
concurred. Mr. Frank stated that he would comply.
Mr. Bowman made a motion and Ms. Easler seconded the motion to approve the
application for Request No. 99-20 with the following stipulation: A blue accent on
the bottom of the sign to match the building columns.
DISCUSSION:
Mr. Bowman queried about the status of the sign ordinance. Attorney Bennett
responded that Planning Solutions Incorporated (PSI) was tasked with the first
two phases of the ordinance and would include signage. Board members
expressed concern with providing input on the ordinance. Attorney Bennett
explained that the ordinance would be comprehensive in its scope regarding City
aesthetics, beautification, planning and zoning and PSI would need input from all
respective Boards.
There being no further business, Mr. Bowman made a motion and Ms. Easler
seconded the motion to adjourn the meeting at 8:00 P.M.
