"sAN~° - SANTON 4~$ y CITY of PLEA ~~ ~'i. `~~~~° Planning Commission NN~~ S MINUTES ~OF REGULAR MEETING. Data April 25, 1972 Time : 8:os PM PIaCe: Pleasanton Justice Court Chairman Garrigan directed the Commissioner attention to the staff report where the staff recommended that perhaps a mock-up could be constructed and reviewed before a decision on the sign approval is given. Commissioner Hirst conceded that the sign would be beneficial to the community as an informational measure, however, there were design problems involved. Commissioner Pons expressed a similar position, as did Commissioner Pereira. Commissioner Wood felt the sign was not in character with the downtown area. Chairman Garrigan also felt that the Frankli Savings & Loan building is a truly attrac- tive addition to the C.B.D. area, but felt that the sign as petitioned, would detract from the overall appearance of the site. The applicant was asked if he would like to continue the matter and resubmit his appli- cation. After some discussion, the applicant request d that the Commission make a decision on the matter that evening. He did state that he would be willing to construct two sign mock-u s, one as the application now before them and another one completely different. To this end, Commissioner Hirst, seconded by Commissioner Wood, offered a motion recommending that the mock-ups be made for the Commission's review. However, with two No votes from Commissioners Pereira and Pons, and a subsequent withdrawal by the applicant to the proposal, the motion died for lack of support. A resolution was then offered by Chairman Garrigan denying Z-72-43 and V-72-11, as petitioned, without prejudice. This reso- lution was seconded by Commissioner Pereira and carried unanimously. -9-
