GAVEL BACK IN OUR SIGN BOARD MEETING AND GO AHEAD AND MOVE TO THE AGENDA FOR THAT MEETING.
[1. Call to order]
[00:00:08]
NO CHAIRMAN'S COMMENTS.ITEM NUMBER 4 CONSIDERATION APPROVAL OF THE MINUTES FROM OUR SEPTEMBER 23RD MEETING.
ANY QUESTIONS COMMENTS ON THAT ITEM BEFORE WE ENTERTAIN A MOTION? MR. CHAIRMAN, I MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE ITEM NUMBER 4 ON OUR AGENDA BEING THE MINUTES FROM THE SEPTEMBER 23RD, 2021 SIGN BOARD MEETING.
WE HAVE A MOTION, WE HAVE A SECOND.
ALL RIGHT. LET'S GO AHEAD AND VOTE PLEASE.
NOW WE'LL MOVE ON TO ITEM NUMBER 5 ON OUR AGENDA IT'S THE ONLY ITEM THIS EVENING.
AND IT IS A SIGN VARIANCE FOR T-MOBILE.
THIS IS ANOTHER ITEM THAT WE REVIEWED IN OUR WORK SESSION AND TOOK EQUALLY A LONG TIME TO PULL UP ON THE COMPUTER AS IT IS NOW.
I THINK THAT'S DENNIS GRAPHICS THAT ARE CAUSING THE SLOWDOWN.
YEAH, WELL, IT WAS. IT WAS VERY.
BUT WE DID HEAR THIS IN WORK SESSION.
I THINK WE'VE GOT A GOOD HANDLE ON THE REQUEST HERE.
SO MAYBE I'LL JUST ASK DENNIS TO PULL UP THE PRESENTATION AND MAYBE IN THE INTERIM WHILE WE'RE WAITING. ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS ANYONE HAS FOR CITY STAFF ON THIS ITEM? MAYBE WE CAN GO TO THE.
YEAH, I THINK THIS WAS A GOOD ONE.
ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? ALL RIGHT. WE'LL GO AHEAD AND ASK THE APPLICANT TO COME UP, PLEASE.
AND AS I ATTEMPTED TO TRY TO DO WITH THE OTHER GENTLEMEN, IF YOU CAN PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD.
AND I THINK WE'LL JUST DO SOME Q&A IF THAT'S OK.
AND MY ADDRESS IS 3560 DALLAS PARKWAY, FRISCO, TEXAS.
ALL RIGHT. ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT BY THE COMMISSIONERS? KIND OF GIVE US THE BRIEF VIEW OF OVERVIEW OF WHY WE'RE DOING THIS.
YEAH, SO THIS IS A DIGITAL PORTAL ELEMENT.
SO THIS STORE IS AN EXPERIENCE STORE, IS WHAT WE CALL IT, RATHER THAN A STANDARD FLEET WIDE STORE.
SO IT'S GOT EXTRA DIGITAL ELEMENTS IN IT THAT WOULD GIVE A CUSTOMER AN EXPERIENCE WITHIN
[3. Southlake Business Spotlight - Jane]
THE STORE. SO IT'S REALLY JUST TO GIVE A ELEVATED FEEL AS YOU WALK THROUGH INTO THE STORE. AND DOES THIS RUN 24 HOURS A DAY, OR IS IT JUST DURING THE STORE HOURS.AND I GUESS WAS THIS ACCIDENTALLY OMITTED FROM THE ORIGINAL SIGN PACKAGE OR NOT ANTICIPATED TO BE NEEDING APPROVAL OR? IT WAS ADDED AFTER CONSTRUCTION STARTED.
WE DIDN'T REALIZE IT WAS A CONSIDERED SIGNAGE AT THE TIME.
SO WHEN WE REVISED THE PLANS, WE ADDED THE ELECTRICAL, THE BLOCKING AND HOW IT WOULD BE ADHERED TO THE STRUCTURE.
BUT WE DID NOT APPLY FOR SIGNAGE PERMITS.
DOES IT GET MORE INVOLVED THAN WHAT WE'RE SEEING HERE ON THE DEMO? I MEAN, WE'RE NOT WE'RE NOT LOOKING LIKE SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
IT CAN DO ANYTHING WE WANT IT TO.
THIS IS WHAT WE'RE LOOKING TO DO.
WE DID A SIMILAR THING IN PLANO AT THE SHOPS OF LEGACY, EXCEPT A LOT BIGGER, WIDER AND TALLER, AND WE HAVEN'T DONE ANY DISCO YET ON THAT SO, BUT I MEAN, WE CAN HAVE, YOU KNOW, WE WON'T DO THAT KIND OF THING.
I MEAN, THAT'S WHAT I'M CONCERNED ABOUT IS LIKE, ESPECIALLY AFTER HOURS TRYING TO DRAW ATTENTION TO THE STORE. IF IT'S OVER THERE GOING OFF, YOU KNOW, LIKE CRAZY OVER THERE, THAT PROBABLY WOULDN'T GO VERY WELL.
SURE. YEAH, I UNDERSTAND THAT.
INCLUDING THE APPLICANT, THAT DON'T GET THAT REFERENCE TO SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER.
THAT'S WHY I SUGGEST USING THE INTERNET FOR FINDING LOCATIONS AND...
ALWAYS GETTING A LITTLE PUNCHY DURING SIGNS.
I GUESS AS PART OF THIS, I GUESS.
COULD WE BUILD INTO A POTENTIAL MOTION, A FEW CONDITIONS AND I GUESS ONE OF WHICH WOULD BE AND I GUESS WE CAN JUST TALK ABOUT IT AS A COMMISSION THAT WHEN YOU'RE CLOSED, THAT THE SIGN IS IN A STEADY STATE, IT'S NOT, YOU KNOW, DOING.
YEAH, I MEAN, THAT'S GOING TO BE AT NIGHT YOU KNOW.
AND THERE ARE, YOU KNOW, THEORETICALLY, SOME SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCES THAT ARE KIND OF CATTY CORNER TO YOU.
YEAH, WE CAN HAVE A PROGRAM THAT WOULD, YOU KNOW, AT A CERTAIN HOUR IT WOULD JUST BE A SOLID COLOR OR.
THE SIGN JUST KIND OF GOES STABLE AT 9 P.M.
[00:05:01]
AND THEN. I CAN PROPOSE TO MY TEAM AND MAKE SURE WE CAN DO THAT.AND THEN WHAT WE'RE SEEING ON DENNIS'S FANCY PRESENTATION HERE DOESN'T APPEAR TO HAVE KIND OF THIS FLASHING LIKE HOT FLASH.
YOU KNOW, JUST I MEAN, IS IT FAIR TO KIND OF INCLUDE THAT IN A MOTION TOO TO WHERE IT'S
[4. Presentation by GRACE]
NOT JUST A BRIGHT FLASHING, REPETITIVE FLASHING? I MEAN, IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S MORE OF A GENTLE CHANGE IN SCENERY, NOT AN ABRUPT ONE.IS THAT FAIR? YEAH, THAT'S FAIR. AND THAT'S THAT'S THE GOAL.
IT'S NOT TO BE A PARTY, IT'S JUST TO BE KIND OF A GRADUAL CHANGE IN ELEMENTS.
ANYTHING ANYBODY ELSE? IS THAT THE WAY YOU'VE BEEN RUNNING IT SO AFTER SPEAKING WITH DENNIS ABOUT IT, IT'S A LIGHTING ORDINANCE AND THEN SO HAD IT WHITE UP UNTIL THIS POINT.
JUST STANDARD WHITE, OK, AND THEN JUST CHANGE IT FOR PHOTOS.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS COMMENTS ON THIS ONE? I THINK THOSE WOULD PROBABLY BE TWO CONDITIONS THAT WOULD PROBABLY BE GOOD TO PUT IN THERE IN TERMS OF JUST A STEADY CONDITION WHENEVER THE STORE IS CLOSED.
AND NO KIND OF I DON'T KNOW THE RIGHT WAY TO PHRASE IT, BUT KIND OF REPETITIVE, QUICK FLASHING ON THE SIGN.
AND YOU MAY MIGHT END UP HAVING A MORE DETAILED DIALOG WITH CITY COUNCIL.
BUT, YOU KNOW, I THINK THE LEAST FOR ME, GIVEN THAT THIS IS IN OUR DOWNTOWN DISTRICT.
YOU KNOW, I THINK I PERSONALLY, I GIVE THIS ONE A LITTLE MORE LATITUDE THAN IF IT WAS JUST SOMEWHERE ELSE IN TOWN.
SO ANYTHING ELSE? QUESTIONS, COMMENTS? GOOD. WELL, I THINK IT'S A LITTLE BIT BETTER ALSO BECAUSE IT'S INSIDE, IT'S NOT ON THE EXTERIOR OF THE BUILDING THAT MAKES IT A LITTLE MORE PALATABLE.
YEAH. AND I'M TRYING TO THINK ABOUT IT IN TERMS OF CONSISTENCY.
YOU KNOW, IF WE PROVE THIS, I MEAN, I DOUBT WE WILL GET FIVE MORE IN A ROW.
BUT IF WE DID, WHAT DO WE WANT THEM TO LOOK LIKE? WHERE DO WE WANT IT TO BE? BUT IF WE DO, IT WOULD HAVE TO BE IN THE DOWNTOWN DISTRICT TO EVEN CONSIDER IT.
SO I THINK YOUR RESTRICTIONS ARE WELL-TAKEN.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS, COMMENTS AND THANK YOU, SIR.
WE APPRECIATE IT. WE NEED YOU AGAIN.
WE'LL LET YOU KNOW. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS COMMENTS BEFORE WE ENTERTAIN A MOTION? OK, LET'S GO AHEAD AND VOTE.
MR. CHAIRMAN, I'M SORRY, MR. CHAIRMAN, I MAKE A MOTION THAT WE APPROVE ITEM NUMBER 5 ON OUR AGENDA SV21-0020 SUBJECT TO OUR STAFF REPORT DATED OCTOBER 1ST.
2021 AND NOTING THE RECOMMENDATION TO COUNCIL THAT THIS BE APPROVED WITH THE APPLICANT LIMITING THE LIGHTS TO BEING IN A SOLID OR STEADY STATE AFTER HOURS AND ALSO LIMITING THE LIGHTS SO THAT THERE'S NO REPETITIVE FLASHING.
WE HAVE A MOTION, SO WE HAVE A SECOND? SECOND. ALL RIGHT.
APPRECIATE IT WITH THAT IT'S 6:57 P.M.
BEATING OUR [INAUDIBLE], I'M GOING TO GAVEL OUT THE MEETING.
