Based on the workshop held at the November 12, 2024, City Council Workshop Meeting, staff received additional questions from the development and business community that were not discussed at the original workshop. The purpose of the November 19, 2024, workshop is to discuss those additional questions and receive guidance on how to proceed forward with the Unified Development Code update. Specifically, staff is looking for direction on temporary signage for residential developments, including utilization of temporary signs for model homes. Additionally, based on the November 12, 2024, workshop it was discussed having different temporary sign regulations for new businesses within 90 days of receiving their Certificate of Occupancy. However, after the City Council meeting staff received questions from existing businesses and their ability to have additional temporary signage to promote special events, promotions, sales, etc. The previously discussed UDC amendment language would not allow existing businesses to utilize these new temporary sign requirements. At the November 19th workshop staff would like clarification from City Council on the ability for existing businesses to have additional temporary signs for these "special events".
