ITEM TITLE� Ordinance 16�0 Adding Sections to the Municipal Code Regulating
�the Construction and Erection of Signs
SECOND P,Ei�Dli`G AND ADOP_TION
SUBMITTED BY Director of Building and Housing
ITEM EXPLANATION�
At present we are using the Building Code requirements for the structural design of
sign structures. Needless to say, these requirements create an over-design for signs.
Because the Zoning Ordinance regulates the size, type and aesthetics of signs , we
have taken only the structural design regulations out of the Uniform Sign Code, 1973
Edition, plus the clearances to High Voltage Lines , Fire Escapes, Exits and Fire
Fighting Standpipes.
The Board of Appeals and Advisors at their meeting of February �9, 1976 held a public
hearing on adding the structural portion of the Uniform Sign Code, 1973 Edition to
the Municipal Code.
