A motion for approval of a request on an application made by Estancia at
Morningstar, for an extension on a temporary off premises sign on State Highway
121 approved by Ordinance 04-1581, Section 6-28(a)(4), situated on the north side of

4-0.
ITEM #4: NEW BUSINESS: Discuss packet distribution and timing and scheduling of
meetings
Mr. Persaud suggested future Sign Board of Appeal packets be picked up by the
Members at the Police Station the week prior to the meeting. They would be available
for pick up twenty-four (24) hours a day, seven days a week. This would be a more
reliable and convenient method of delivery.
The Members requested the packets be sent electronically. Mr. Persaud informed them it
would be their responsibility to print out the hard copy and bring it to the meetings. The
Members agreed that would not be a problem for them.
Planner Odell will send the next meeting's packet electronically. Mr. Persaud requested
they let Ms. Odell know, as soon as possible, if they are experiencing difficulties printing
their packet.
Ms. Odell reminded them that when new members are appointed to the Board all must
have the capability of receiving their packets by computer otherwise it will be necessary
to return to the old method of mailing or picking up the hard copy packet.
The next Sign Board of Appeal meeting will be scheduled for Wednesday, March 23,
2005 immediately following the Board of Adjust meeting.
With no further business, the meeting adjourned at 7:07 p.m.
