The Planning Commission is currently reviewing a proposed amendment to the City Zoning Ordinance that will regulate Electronic Display Signs, also known as LED signs. The Planning Commission is seeking input regarding the ordinance and the issue of Electronic Display Signs.

The workshop is scheduled for Monday, November 9, 2009, at 5:30 p.m., and will be held in the City Council Chamber, second floor of Building 1, at the Municipal Center.
