Z- <br />?; ?_ <br />Regular Council Meeting <br />12/18/89 <br />Page 6 <br />Mr. Petrillo said the trees in the area hamper visibility. He would <br />like to work with Council about the set back and signage. <br />Mr. Rinker asked why they needed this; if they have some indication <br />that a sign would improve their business. <br />Mr. Petrillo said that Speedway is known for its competitive price. <br />Unless they can competitively show their price they cannot market their <br />product effectively. They would need a price sign to do so. <br />Mr. Rinker asked if they have something that shows their business has <br />suffered due to lack of signage. <br />Mr. Amendola compared the proposals and presentations they had made. <br />He said this was not the same proposal considered by the Architectural <br />Review Board. <br />Mr. Hovancsek arrived at this time (8:30 p.m.) <br />Mr. Petrillo said they would like to remove the existing signage on <br />the building and only install those signs on the canopy and a price <br />sign underneath the canopy. <br />Discussion was held about the business. Mr. Petrillo said they offer <br />self-serve gas and a convenience store which sells snacks and pop etc. <br />Mr. Amendola suggested that since changes have been made that were not <br />part of the recommendation the Architectural Review Board considered, <br />that this go back to the Architectural Review Board for review. <br />Mr. Rinker said that Council is not trying to restrict his business but <br />he thinks they must have a compelling reason to grant a variance. <br />Mr. Basile asked the pleasure of Council. <br />Mr. Rinker recommended this item be put into Caucus. <br />Mrs. Mills said she thinks the Architectural Review Board should define <br />what they can do. <br />Mr. Petrillo asked if it would be possible to sit in on the next <br />Council work session. <br />Mrs. Mills said the next Caucus is January 15. <br />Mr. Rinker said that Council will try to resolve the issue one way or <br />another as soon as possible. This item should be placed on the next <br />Caucus agenda. <br />Residential Smoke Detectors - Existing Homes - Mr. Ramos said it is <br />possible. He will be drafing legislation which he hopes to have by <br />Caucus.
