In the spring/summer of 2009, the Mayor’s Office and the Planning and Development Department received numerous requests from local businesses for increased allowances for portable and temporary signs to help stimulate local business activities during the current significant economic downturn. The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on August 25, 2009 and following deliberation, recommended to the City Council authorization of the use of portable and temporary signs in certain zoning districts for a one year time period with the possibility of up to two six-month extensions, should economic conditions warrant. City Council approved Ordinance No. 6263 on September 8, 2009 authorizing portable and temporary signs in certain specified zoning districts of the City of Auburn until September 16, 2010, unless this timeframe was extended by future Council action. The Council approved this Ordinance due in part to the determination that it was in the public interest, given the economic conditions and challenges for local businesses. Following Council approval of Ordinance No. 6263, staff notified interested parties and developed no-fee permit forms to register the location of portable and temporary signs on private property and in the public right-of-way. Staff has encountered no major problems or issues in the administration of this temporary program. City Council approved Ordinance No. 6327 on September 7, 2010 extending the timeframe for the use of portable and temporary signs on private property and in the public right-of-way to March 15, 2011. Subsequent discussion and recommendation by the Planning and Community Development Committee in February 2011, City Council approved Ordinance No. 6353 (see attached) on March 7, DI.A 2011, once again extending the timeframe for the use of portable and temporary signs, to March 15, 2012. Staff has continued to encounter no major problems or issues in the extended administration of this temporary program. Discussion: In preparation for a draft ordinance to the Planning and Development Committee at its regular meeting on January 23, 2012, staff would like to discuss the following questions: 1. Does the Committee want to consider another extension of the current allowance for the use of portable and temporary signs on private property and in the public right-of-way? 2. Staff recommends that the temporary allowances be extended for a two year period in light of current economic circumstances and to show continued support for local businesses.
