Item
Request to place private sign in public right-of-way by the Fair~ay
Estates Homeowner's Association.
Background
The attached letter, submitted by the Faiz~ay Estates Homeowners
Association, requests the placement of two signs in the public
right-of-way near the intersection of Fairdale Road and the center
private drive to the housing area. Currently, City ordinances do
not allow the placement of private signs in the public right-of-
way.
The sign will presumably read "Fairway Estates" The sign will
have concrete posts with brick face and cedar boards, a maximum of
seven (7) feet in height, approximately fifteen (15) feet long and
located on the north and south side of an existing entrance drive.
No apparent traffic hazard or obstruction would be created by the
placement of this sign and it would not interfere with the use of
sidewalks. However, approval of this installation will require an
exception to the current ordinances. City ordinance Section 35-40
allows the use of public property for aesthetic purposes if the
City Commission grants authorization for the proposed sign.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Commission approve the request and
authorize the City Clerk to issue a permit to the Fairway Estates
Homeowners Association for the placement of a sign in the public
right-of-way as an aesthetic improvement.

We hereby apply for a permit under Section 35-40 of the City Code (use of public property
for aesthetic purposes by abutting property owners). We are the 38-unit complex of
townhomes immediately to the west of the munidpal golf course. There are three entrances
to the west side of our complex off Fairdale Road. We want to erect brick entrance posts
on both sides of all three entrances, ex,replete with signs (conforming to Code requirements)
that will identify the townhome units that can be accessed from each entrance. In order to
do so in an efficient and aesthetic manner, it is preferable, if not necessary, to build outside
the property lines of the complex, within the Citlg~right of way on the east side of Fairdale
Road.
We have already discussed this matter with M~e PeterS°n, and he suggested I write this
letter. We have also gone over preliminary plans with Mike, although we need to finalize
them after your department has marked the location of utility lines. We expect to submit
the application, complete with plot plan, sometime later this month.
Thank you ha advance for your consideration and cooperation. .
