Council Member Jefferson said yes we have 1 -re was some mformat1on I'm trymg to remember exactly what that was does anybody have tha ? Mr G1lh d I '~.oug ht we were going to talk to tn em, bu t I Mr Jefferson satd I thm k we Jus t sent them someth ... u, ,,g hey we are going to enact th is moratori um but you know we still haven 't made the rules for mura ls and so 1t may have to come down the letter that was sent to them or th e contact with them , was something along th ose Im es Council Member G1ll1t said I know we sent the letter , but I JUSl wondered 1f we have heard anything back from them Mayor Woodward said well, yes Alan Is here and he can respond I think II v.ias pan of their Council Requests where CommJn1ty Development went over there they did come back and pull a permit There wa s measuremem of that so maybe Alan has that response Director White saI0 w e did con ta ct ttlern via lett er anu t11eI~ Wd~ d follow-up phone call \'.hen the,-" gut the lener they c alled us They are In compliance wit h the wall sIgnagc regula11ons for that one d1stn ct l hev either have remov ed or are rn the process of removing tn e w in dow sign that they had up But th ey are 1n com ph a--ce given the ir pole s1gn and the s ig n on the side o th e wall separate from th e mural We did tell them th at we are working on Sign Code and the ate of murals 1s up rn th<' air They m.1y be required to remove: that mural pending the ou t..:o me of the regu lc1 t1 ons But the y may be able toke,,, 11 .1c; well So I Jusl Iold them wr~ didn 't know at this point what wa s go:ng to happen Maym Woodward !>aid does tha t answ r yo ur question? Council Member G11l1t said yes sir th ank you Cou ncil Members Jefferson and Penn said tha nks Alan Council Member Wilson sa id I have J:,e ,no·e thing Also BIO would like to get tog eth er w1 th Counc1I at a Study Session Mayor V',J oodward said t JUSt want to make a fe,, comments regarding U1Is resolution. so the publtc knows wh at 11 Is Its the Ccunc1I deems 11 necessary to coord mate the review of the Unified Development Code It fmds It appropriate to tempera ·•'y ::;uspend enforcement of seiecl provisions of th e Sign Code relating to wall murals , until review by the staf' and City Council The n,r,ratonum would temporarily sto p enforcement of those acuon s Englewood City Council April 5, 2010 Page 16 and after a review of the effect of the moratonum relating to wall murals on the community, the recommendat1 on mav be to keep the Code as II currently exists , so any person who purchases erects or maintains a wall mura l dunng the moratonum penod , m contravent1on of the ex1st1ng Sign Code will do so at their own nsk of e1ny subject to anforcement at the term1nat1on of the six month moratonum So , m o ther words , 1f they a re 10 do ;i mu ral and 11 doesn't flt into the Sign Code they have to remove tha! mural at their expense JU SI so people are aware of that Mayor Woodward said are there any other commenls ? Council Me mber Jeffe rson said I will iu st comment that from a po licy perspective I do thmk we need to get some rules ou t there m place You know I 1h 1nk that people see the ir neigh bors do 11 and th ey go it's ok ay an d then so, I thin k we will stan to see some of thes e spring off Bro ad way now So, I guess my comme nt would Iust be th at, I think we need to set th e policy and make i: relativel y clear In l he near future , because wII h the Hea ded West si tuati on and now this I think that we have 901 to convey tho se, those standards to the business comrnun11 y o therwise 1t 1s going to ex pand Council Members Penn and WIison said 1 agree Mayor Woodward said maybe 1f we could mo.l(e up a maybe Jus t a short letter o r wha tever, so people 1f 11 does happen, people could be handed that by Sode or whatever so they are aware of that Cou ncil Member Jefferson said you a re saying,· a,,othe r oerson erects a m ural they rece ive a similar letter th at this place got? Mayor Woodwa rd said well one that says that they may have to remove 11 Mr Jefferson sa id maybe t hats the process that Mayor W.Jodward said 1here 1s another one alrea dy. o ff on Kalama th no nh or the Rec Cente r on Kalarl'ath th at's Cou ncil Member Jefferson said when are we bnng1ng this forward when will this come fo rward 10 us agam? Mayor Woodward said P & Z has been working on this 11 span of lhe Sign Code , as well as ACE has had d1 scuss10ns regarding 1t and those well you are on ACE you knolfl So that's been going to P & Z so . I think Alan am I correct 1n th1nkmg that P & Z was look1rig at the end of fall to possibly have something "" the whole Sign Code? D1rec to r Whi te said we are not making prog ress hke we would have w ished when we started this process But I think fall is probably a good guess lIma Ie al 1h1s point We ac l ually I don 't know if this Is the l ime to bri ng this up but are cons1denng coming to Counc1 1 at a Stu dy Session with a 11st of our ideas for Sign Code and get your I guess blessing for lack of a better word rin that d1re ct10 n 1n order to move forward We seem to be bogged down a l1ttle bit 1n th e process nght now So m !he next month or so we arL proposing to come to you Mayor Woodward said okay Council Member Jefferson sard 1 think tha t would be better Several Council members concu rred Council Member Jeffe rson said doe nave to go through P & Z?
