At that meeting we approved the new draft of the zoning standards for wind turbines. We did have a discussion as well on temporary advertising signs and the sign ordinance amendment. On the temporary advertising signs, Diane Calta provided us with a number of other ordinances from other cities. We are in the process of reviewing that and trying to come up with something that would best fit everyone's needs along the lines of what Mr. Marrelli said in terms of trying to encourage business but also understanding that there are maybe some rules or requirements in terms of people putting up banners and different types of signs. They have to seek approval. We also talked about people leaving their garbage cans exposed on their front lawns. We recommended a change to the ordinance which says that they need to be screened. You can put them in your front lawn as long as they are screened so they can't be seen from the street. That change was made. The motion was carried and approved. Our next meeting is on August 9th Mr. Marrie asked, will a notice go out to all residents concerning this? Mr. Saponaro replied, sure.
