pastor Burton Roberts with the Meridian Gospel Tabemacle. If you will all join us in the
community invocation or take this as an opportunity for a moment of reflection. Pastor,
thank you for being here with us.
Roberts: And thank you, Madam Mayor. We are always pleased to be here. I was
sitting here a moment ago thinking about how proud my father would be of this building.
He was such a long time resident of this city and always was so much a part of it, that I
just found myself thinking back and going, wow, dad, you should be able to see where
we are now. So, with that kind of thankfulness in my heart, let us pray. Our most
gracious and kind Heavenly Father, we are, indeed, thankful for your many blessings.
In times like these we need to remember and realize how far you have led your people
and how much we still need your constant guidance in our lives. Tonight, Father, we,

with great joy, come before you and ask of you that you would truly watch over and care
for us as citizens of this wonderful community, that you would bless our Mayor and the
Council and all of those that labor in this community, may we find the strength in you
and the wisdom, the guidance that we need. We know, Father, that we can count on
your help if we will but turn to you and ask. So, tonight, Father, we are asking for your
blessing and we ask this in Jesus mighty name, amen.
De Weerd: Thank you again for joining us. It's always nice to see you.
Item 4: Adoption of the Agenda:
De Weerd: Okay. Item No. 4 is adoption of the agenda.
Zaremba: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Zaremba.
Zaremba: There has been a request to drop Item 7-A-1 from the agenda. So, that
would mean there are no Department Reports tonight. And there is a request to add an
Item 11, which will be an Executive Session per Idaho State Code 67-2345(1)(c),
Charlie, and (e), Echo. With those two changes I move that we adopt the agenda.

De Weerd: Item 6 is our Consent Agenda.

Zaremba: The proclamation.
Item 5: Proclamation for Prostate Cancer Awareness Month:
De Weerd: Oh. I'm sorry. Is there anyone here in the audience that's here to receive
this proclamation? We had a problem getting a hold of them. We do have a
proclamation hereby proclaiming that September is the month of prostate cancer
awareness. I will forego the reading of this proclamation, since there is no one here to
receive it, but we will be presenting it at an event and so we will read it then. But just for
-- for the public's information, please, be aware that it is prostate cancer awareness
month for the month of September.

Item 8: Items Moved from Consent Agenda:
De Weerd: There were no items moved from the Consent Agenda.
Item 9: Public Hearing: ZOA 09-002 Request to amend the standards for
temporary signs listed in UDC 11-3D-6A.6 to allow an increase in the
amount of time a temporary sign may be displayed from 90 days to a
maximum of 180 days for UDC Text Amendment -Temporary Signs by
City of Meridian Planning Department:
De Weerd: So, we are at Item 9, the public hearing for ZOA 09-002. I will open this
public hearing with staff comments.
Canning: Thank you, Madam Mayor. This is our code amendment for temporary signs
and it would apply citywide. The Planning Department has initiated the text amendment
to increase the display time of temporary signs from 90 days to 180 days and as you
may recall, we spoke to Council before we initiated this text amendment. The new
standards are on an interim basis, as city staff is in the process of rewriting the entire
sign code and the temporary sign standards will be reviewed in a future zoning
ordinance amendment later this year. We hope to adopt that new sign ordinance before
the beginning of the year. The Commission has recommended denial at their August 6,
2009, public hearing. The Planning Department spoke in favor of the text amendment,
but there was no one in opposition, commenting, or providing written testimony. The
key issues of discussion by the Commission were the time frames for the adoption of
the new sign ordinance, anticipating, again, a late December adoption date. The
temporary sign requirements proposed in the new sign ordinance and the current
temporary sign standards -- and by that we are looking at allowing more permanent
signs to reduce the need for temporary signs in the new ordinance. And the impact
from the community and the business if the display times are increased. And there was
also discussion about the effectiveness of temporary signs with regard to -- if they are
up too long they lose their effectiveness is what the Commission stated -- or one
member of the Commission. So, the key Commission changes to staff recommendation
--they did recommend denial of the zoning ordinance amendment. So, that is the --the
outstanding issue before Council. As I said before, there was no one at the Planning
and Zoning Commission hearing. We have tried to get the word out a little better and I
think you will find that there are some folks here to testify tonight in support of the text
amendment. And with that I will answer any questions that Mayor or Council may have.
De Weerd: Council, any questions?
Rountree: I have none.
Bird: I have none.

De Weerd: Okay. This is a public hearing. Is there anyone who would like to provide
testimony on this item? Please come forward. If you will, please, state your name and
address for the record.
Reitz: My name is Kathy Reitz. I live at 12374 West Goldenrod is Boise and I own
Renewed Expressions Consignment Boutique in Meridian.
De Weerd: Thank you.
Reitz: Okay. My business is located at the intersection of Cheny Lane and Linder,
across the street from Pizza Hut. I would like to state that it's been a rough year and a
half. My business is four years old next month and I have advertised via the Money
Mailer Mag -- mailers. The Book of Good Deals. Radio. Cable television. And
consistently for the last year in the Hometown Values. This ad -- this half page ad right
here cost me approximately 600 dollars every time I run it and it reaches about 50,000
people. I generally get about 15 to 20 new customers every time it's run. I found out
about the Marquee signs with the fluorescent letters about a year and a half ago and I
have utilized it my three months out the year for the past two years. It's hands down my
number one advertising avenue. I get probably five to ten new customers a week off of
it and, basically, what it does is it gives me the ability to change out what I say on it.
Because I'm consignment I'm always advertising to get new consigners, as well as new
customers. It's also important in that when we publish this kind of thing, when we do
radio, television, sometimes signage will just cause people to connect all the dots and
they will realize, oh, that's the place that I heard the ad on or whatever. I ask my
customers how they find me and most of them tell me it's either via a friend
recommending them to my store or off of my signage and I would say that one of the
challenges for the businesses, especially on the west side of Meridian, is that a lot of
people are coming down the main corridors, like Linder, Meridian Road, Locust Grove,
and they are taking a left and they are headed east to do their business rather than
west. So, I'm sitting on the west side, which is a challenge. I'm sitting, basically, a mile
between the two Albertson's, so it's been an advantage for me in that I'm right on the
edge of a subdivision and people will spot that sign before they will see the sign on my
building. So, I am requesting that you would change the sign ordinances from three
months to six months. It would absolutely help my business no question. Any
questions?
De Weerd: Thank you. Council, any questions?
Rountree: I have none.
De Weerd: Thank you so much.
Reitz: Thank you.

De Weerd: I do have asign-up sheet here that has a number of people that signed up.
If, when I read your name, you would like to provide testimony, please, come forward at
that time. Rick Thomas signed up for. Good evening.
Thomas: Good evening. I'm Rick Thomas. I live in Meridian off of Black Cat on 2463
North O'Conner and I own a business on 950 East Fairview. We have been open about
four months now and we have taken advantage of the Marquee signs that Kathy was
just speaking of. Unfortunately, we don't own the building that we currently occupy. We
are right next to Hastings and if everybody has driven by Hastings, they have a nice big
road Marquee sign that says Hastings on it. They have the ability to put different
promotions and whatnot on that sign. The owner of our building has said at some point
when he has enough tenants in that building he would be willing to do something similar
to the Hastings building, but at the current economy I don't see that happening anytime
in the near future. We poll, since we are a new business, almost every single person
that comes in our doors and radio -- haven't done any TV, but flyers, word of mouth,
hands down -- seven out of ten people that we poll say the sign that is on Fairview that
we put up and change weekly, bi-weekly, that the fluorescent letters is what pulls them
into our store. We sit back from Fairview. We cannot afford ourselves to put up a
permanent fixture sign, which is allowed to do, like Banner Bank has right in our same
parking lot and at Smoky Mountain. So, changing the ordinance to extend the -- from
the 90 days to 180 days would benefit a business like ours. Not only that, the city's
getting money for the signage that we put out there as far as permits and whatnot, so I
know the city could use the extra revenue. I see more of a problem with yard sales and
garage sale signage than respectable, nice signs that are changed out from time to time
and I'd really appreciate it if somebody would really think long and hard about doing
something -- maybe for just a temporary period, but it really benefits small businesses
like ours and we don't want to go out of business and if we stay in business more
revenue for the city. So, that's about all I got, if anybody has any questions.
De Weerd: Thank you, Mr. Thomas. Any questions?
Rountree: Madam Mayor? Rick.
De Weerd: Mr. Thomas. Thank you.
Rountree: You have to take advantage of telling us what your business is.
Thomas: Oh, I'm sorry. Kids Again Retail.
Rountree: That's what I thought. Thank you.
De Weerd: Jonathan Seal signed up for. Good evening.
Seal: Good evening, Mayor and Council Members. My name is Jonathan Seal. I work
for the W.H. Moore Company, 1940 Bonito. I'm here on behalf of, obviously, the W.H.
Moore Company and so many of her tenants. I think, you know, recently you waived
Meridian City Council
September 1, 2009

the fire and the police impact fees and I think there is a recognition on the part, I would
assume, of the Council and the Mayor that developers out there are struggling, that was
to encourage them to bring business to the community. We are seeing the same thing
with retailers out there. I think that several of these individuals have already spoke. It's
a real struggle out there for them. We see them on a fairly consistent basis coming in
asking that the rent be reduced, that there be some forgiveness for things. A lot of them
are really struggling out there and some of them are hanging only by their fingertips. I
know that temporary signs are not an attractive thing. I personally don't like to see them
either. I know we have them in Centre Point, for example, and, personally, they are not
attractive, but I would point out that I think they are less -- or they are not as unattractive
is driving by and seeing empty buildings and that's what you're going to be faced with.
There is a real struggle out here. So, I understand it's on a temporary basis and I would
strongly encourage you to do it, because I think it's critical to these. Whether -- how
long it's effective -- I heard a comment about -- with P&Z how effective it is. I can't
speak to that. But I do know that it is very effective, it's very important, they need that,
and it may be the difference between staying in business and closing down. So, I think
it becomes the lesser of two evils. So, I would encourage you, I think it's -- I appreciate
the fact that you have been able to take this into consideration and pass this tonight,
because it is highly important, I think, to many of the tenants and, obviously, the
businesses in the community. Thank you.
De Weerd: Thank you, Jonathan.
Rountree: Thank you.
De Weerd: Okay. Thank you. William Bonner signed up a neutral. Travis Long also
signed up as neutral. If you will, please, state your name and address for the record.
Long: My name is Travis Long. I live in Meridian at 3554 Springfield.
De Weerd: Thank you.
Long: And originally I signed up just because I thought it was asign-in sheet. But,
actually, we are here with our scout troop and -- but after listening to the business
owners I come before you as a consumer of products and services and seeing signage
going down the road, I believe that the longer, you know, the signage is out there -- I
have seen a lot of these neon signs, they have drawn me into businesses, small
businesses especially. I like -- I like to -- I'm always kind of a -- I'm an entrepreneur at
heart, so I understand how these businesses struggle in an economy like this, so seeing
something like this, you know, from 90 to 180 days, especially in an economy like this,
as a consumer I think it's beneficial for the small business of Meridian and this
community and I believe that if you pass this it will help the small businesses, not only
for them, but also the community and the city. So, that's all I have.
De Weerd: Thank you so much.

Long: Thank you. Any questions?
De Weerd: Thank you. And thank you for bringing your -- your scouts down.
Welcome. If I had known that, I would have recruited you to lead us in the pledge
earlier. Eric Hull is signed up for. Hi.
Hull: Hi. I'm Eric Hull. I live at 7280 Hidden Valley Drive, Boise. I own Sam's Toybox.
De Weerd: Thank you.
Hull: And, you know, we -- we did the 90 day sign thing during Christmas, obviously,
because we were brand new, and so we were waiting until this next season to do it
again. But at that time what we saw is -- you know, we spent a ton of money on
advertising, radio, we had some TV, we had a lot of print, and we got more people off of
our signs that were going to Winco, because we are located in the Central Park
Shopping Center over there by Winco. So, you got the Panda Express on one end, but,
then, you can't see us down at the other end, because of the angle of the building. And
so when we had our signs out -- we are small enough and we are -- you know, we are
slow enough that I talk to everybody that comes through and I have charted it, where
everybody hears about us, and even when we were spending all the money on
advertising, even during the Christmas season back then, eight out of every ten people
-- it was 81 percent. So, basically, eight out of ten, came in because of the signs and
because we are set back a little way and so it was really helpful for us to get people in.
I know for us it would be a great help to be able to have the signs up longer and maybe
through different parts of the year. So, I -- I really -- any questions?
De Weerd: Thank you.
Rountree: Just a comment. You have got great toys.
De Weerd: And you do good advertising. I know about you, not because of your sign,
so --
Hull: Trying to get people in.
De Weerd: Thank you. Alexander -- I can't read the last name. Oh, there you go.
Thank you for being here. Spencer, I imagine that -- Thank you for being here. Todd
Booth signed up for. Good evening.
Boothe: Todd Boothe. I live at 13924 West Daimler Court in Boise. With RC Willeys.
And we definitely buy a lot of permits for signage from you guys. So, totally in favor of
adding -- get it to 180 days. For what we do, we have a lot of advertising, as you guys
know, and things change quite a bit. When we do print advertising we put it in three
months before, sometimes two months, and by the time things change. Our mattress
prices adjust, they go down, and what we do is we have -- they keep coming to our
entrance. We have pillars there that we hang a banner on and we alert people with
Meridian City Council
September 1. 2009
Page 9 of 14
special deals that we are going that weren't -- we can't let them know with a N ad we
did three months before, because it could be that 300 dollar reduction on something.
And so we had tracked it and we have had mattress sales jump 200,000, you know, in a
week because of that type of a sign. I feel like they are very professional. We are not,
you know, running up and down the street with things. One thing is our events are
usually a week long and so with the permits right now you have to give them in two
week inter -- you know, intervals. So, really, we get six opportunities a year to do signs
and this would help us quite a bit, take us to 13, and it does help businesses. I know
that I'm not a small business, but we still are local, we have 235 local employees and it
does affect our business and it keeps, you know, money in people's pockets and helps
the economy. So, as long as it's professional, I feel like the sign is professional, I think it
-- it's okay. I think there is some ratty signs out there. I think that's something we need
to be concerned with, but -- anyway, I think it's a good thing. Also, I -- when they had
further hearings on this I have some other great ideas for this and I don't mind paying
the fees. I think it's a great sign. But, again, I think the main thing is keeping it
professional and keep people in business, so --
De Weerd: Well, great. Well, we will look for your comments as we move forward with
permanent sign changes. So, thank you for being here.
Canning: Sir? Sir?
De Weerd: Todd.
Canning: Todd.
Boothe: We need your business card to our planning director
Canning: Do you have one?
De Weerd: You piqued her interest with your further comments. Those are the names
that have signed up. Is there anyone else who would like to provide testimony on this
item? Okay. We thank you for your comments. Council, any further questions for staff
at this point?
Zaremba: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Zaremba.
Zaremba: Not really a question, just a comment. May take away from what I believe
the Planning and Zoning Commission was saying is they -- they didn't feel the necessity
to change a rule that was going to change in less than six months anyhow. And I
understand that. I will also have to say as a former small business owner many, many
years ago in another city -- the on-site signage is the biggest draw of all the things that
you could spend money on and at a time when our economy is suffering, I'd be very
Meridian City Council
September 1, 2009
Page 10 of 14
happy to cut some of our businesses some slack and make this change, even if we are
going to revise the whole ordinance sequence.
De Weerd: Thank you. Any other questions or comments before I ask for a motion to
close?
Hoaglun: Madam Mayol'?
De Weerd: Mr. Hoaglun.
Hoaglun: Just a quick comment. I read the Planning and Zoning minutes on this
hearing and the comments -- one commissioner talked about, you know, if the signs are
up too long, temporary signs, they lose their effectiveness and from a marketing
standpoint there is some validity to that where they put a sign up there and they expect
to drive their traffic and they don't change the sign. That's true. But at the same time,
when you hear business people like -- I think it was Kathy mentioned, hers is part of a
marketing program or strategy. She does advertising in some publications, she uses her
sign to draw attention to her business, she changes the sign out, that's -- that changes
the dynamics quite a bit and it's not just something that's thrown up there, never
changed, and the visual element is lost, because it's always there and people don't see
it. So, I think there is a difference to using signs as a marketing tool and smart business
owners do that and that's what they need to do and especially in this economy. You
know, the comment about ratty signs, yes, I hope our sign ordinance looks at that.
When we do the permanent one we don't want to have wars, we want to have standards
that look nice, they are professional, that they can be used and, you know, I don't want
to get into the wars where someone has afour-by-eight, well, you have afour-by-eight,
I'm going to go eight-by-ten and off we go and -- because that doesn't do anybody any
good. But I think there is a place for signage in our city to drive business, drive traffic to
businesses and I think something like this will certainly help.
De Weerd: Thank you.
Bird: Madam Mayor?
De Weerd: Mr. Bird.
Bird: I move we close the public hearing on ZOA 09-002.

Zaremba: Second.
De Weerd: I have a motion and a second to approve Item 9. Is there any discussion?
Rountree: Madam Mayor, I do support this and I appreciate the comments we have
heard tonight. A lot of them ring true to things that are both a concern about temporary
signage, as well as concerns about the importance of temporary signage. My only
hesitancy is that we are in the process of doing our signing ordinances, so, hopefully,
this doesn't build some sense of false expectation. I don't know where it's going to go,
but it might go someplace different. But I do support it and I appreciate the folks that
came out and talked this evening and your points did resonate.
De Weerd: Thank you. Madam Clerk, will you, please, call roll.
