Chernick Conference Room with Commonwealth Edison to discuss street lights as well as several other subjects and the Ridge Avenue Water Main Improvement Project . The Committee will then adjourn to the Landmeier Road Public Works facility and meet with residents to review the plans for the Landmeier Public Works noise reduction project . 9 . JUDICIARY, PLANNING & ZONING COMMITTEE - CHAIRMAN RETTBERG SEARS HARDWARE STORE - The committee met on Tuesday, May 21, 1996 and discussed the variance that was requested by Sears for a sign to be placed on their portion of the Shopping Center lot . Representatives of Sears and the Sign Company were present at this meeting. The Committee considered and supported the idea that for the concept that Sears probably needed a sign to identify them as they are actually one shopping center divided in two and are under separate ownership. The discussion then shifted to the type of sign that was proposed. The consensus of the Committee was that the proposed sign would not be recommended for a variation. Upon further discussion the owners indicated that they would come back with a monument sign that would be very close to what is permitted by Village Ordinance. The newly proposed sign would meet the height requirements however it would require a variation for the total square footage . The new request for the variance can be considered by the Committee at the next meeting which will be held on Tuesday, June 4, 1996 at 7 : 00 p.m. Discussion followed regarding the proposed sign and whether every business that will be located in the shopping center will request a sign/sign variation. Also discussed was whether or not the owner of the shopping center, George Gullo, was aware of the sign variation request and if he was present at the committees' meeting. Due to the questions raised Staff was directed to notify Mr. Gullo of the June 4th meeting so that a representative can be in attendance . SIGN ORDINANCE-BIESTERFIELD CORRIDOR - The Committee recommends that an ordinance be passed to preserve the integrity of the Biesterfield corridor. The ordinance would ban banners, temporary signs and signs in windows in the area of within 200 feet of the intersection of Arlington 4 05-28-96 Heights Road and Biesterfield. Comments were invited from businesses that would be effected and two letters of objection were received, however, it was the consensus of the committee that the two letters were not sufficient to justify not enacting the ordinance, which will protect the Biesterfield corridor. The Village Attorney advised the Committee that there would be no legal problem with having this ordinance restricting signage in a certain area and not others so long as the area is defined in the ordinance. Motion to direct the Village Attorney to prepare an ordinance regulating signage along the Biesterfield Road corridor. MOVED: Trustee Johnson SECONDED: Trustee Lissner VOICE VOTE MOTION CARRIED REAL ESTATE & LEASING INFORMATION FOR SHOPPING CENTERS SIGN REGULATIONS - An ordinance was passed at the last meeting regarding sign regulations for real estate and leasing information which was effective upon passage . Complaints were received that this was unfair to businesses with existing signs in conflict with the new ordinance. It was the consensus of the Committee that a 90 day moratorium be placed on the enforcing of the ordinance as to existing signs that would be in violation. It was the consensus of the Village Board to agree with the moratorium as recommended by the Judiciary, Planning and Zoning Committee. MEETING SCHEDULE - A meeting of the committee is scheduled for Tuesday, June 4, 1996 at 7 : 00 p.m. and in addition to the Sears Hardware sign request the committee will consider the new agenda item which is the Boston Market/Einstein Bagel request for a variance. 10 .
