THE TOWN OF MOUNTAIN VIEW TOWN COUNCIL MEETING CALLED TO ORDER
Mayor Kiddie called the meeting to order. Roll call.

CONSENT AGENDA
Kiddie introduced the agenda item.

Councilmember Lilliston motioned to approve and Councilmember Boone seconded. The motion passed with roll call vote of all members present.

UNSCHEDULED PUBLIC COMMENTS
Kiddie introduced the agenda item.

No one from the public was in the audience.

ELECTRONIC MESSAGE CENTER (EMCs) PRESENTATION
Kiddie requested the agenda item moved at this time.

Travis Reynolds, LSL Planning, gave a brief presentation on some project updates and specifically the electronic message centers. The staff memo outlined the proposed process. He noted they recommended the following items: permanent placement; detached signs; operational issues would be message transition method and duration; instantaneous transition; no animation; length it holds; brightness regulations; brightness of resolution (500-600 NIT); down at nighttime (lowest levels); incorporate EMC use as civic nature (Town Hall, churches); monument signs and free-standing signs; require sign permit. Existing EMC on a building would be legal non-conforming and if it changed then it needs to be conforming. With growth and change then there would be a need to have the regulations for uniformity to anticipate growth and conform to standards. Future considerations include a baseline of what is acceptable, safety precautions and uniformity and potential for growth and changes in commercial entities to conform.

The conversation continued with regard to how it fits the profile of the Town, lighting changes in residential and commercial zones, costs and what to do in the future, benefits and consideration for current commercial, and flexibility. Conservative guidelines are extremely acceptable and consideration of brightness, a shut off option in residential space with commercial times extended, what would be less intrusive to residents. The vision is more at 44th and Sheridan, the commercial zone. There was concern with possible violations of sign code and how to address it. It was expressed that residents should have input and discussion moving forward to keep it reasonable. It was noted to let the planner handle writing the sign code. They have the background and knowledge to proceed.

The planner and attorney agreed to review its effect with the rest of the municipal code and bring back as a draft ordinance. They will consider sign size and consult what the technical static panel would be, maybe 6×8 instead of 8×8 panel.

Reid and Reynolds agreed to draft the letters to the businesses letting them know the Town is considering the EMC and invite them to attend the meeting to discuss it.

Reynolds noted two other quick updates outlined in their memo. He also stated they could tackle the billboard issue.

SECOND READING OF ORDINANCE NO. 2017-01-09A, AN ORDINANCE AMENDING MOUNTAIN VIEW TOWN CODE SECTION 8-14-80 AUTHORIZING THIRD-PARTY COLLECTIONS OF MUNICIPAL COURT ASSESSMENTS
Kiddie introduced the agenda item.

Kiddie introduced the agenda item.

Councilmember Lilliston motioned to approve with the caveat that the town attorney will change the language in the third paragraph and Councilmember Boone seconded. The motion passed with roll call vote of all members present.

DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION NO. 2017-02-13, A RESOLUTION APPROVING AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE TOWN OF MOUNTAIN VIEW AND SWANHORST AND COMPANY, LLC, FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
Kiddie introduced the agenda item.

Councilmember Lilliston motioned to approve and Councilmember Dosh seconded. The motion passed with roll call vote of all members present.

DISCUSSION REGARDING "SPECIAL EVENT LICENSE" REVIEW LICENSE FEES FOR CERTAIN TYPES OF ACTIVITIES OPERATING OUTSIDE OF THE TRADITIONAL COMMERCIAL BUSINESSES
Kiddie introduced the agenda item.

Dosh directed everyone to the letter from Kathleen Hancock in the packet. This is a one day or over a weekend type event.

Lilliston noted the examples provided asked for a date(s) of events to assist in tracking and is easier for the vendor. A resolution would be appropriate and posted on the website to notify residents this is available.

It is not a difficult process to complete. The fee would cover administrative costs to process.

Councilmember Lilliston motioned to generate a resolution with a $10.00 fee for the Special Event License and Councilmember Richardson seconded. The motion passed with roll call vote of all members present.

Lilliston asked who would be contacting Ms. Hancock of the decision and Town Clerk Albright stated she would notify her of the decision.

Kiddie introduced the agenda item.
