The first change amended the temporary sign ordinance to allow philanthropic, charitable and institutional organizations to place in town temporary signs for non-town sponsored events conducted at a venue outside the town limits.
For example, the Lewisville Civic Club may now place temporary signs advertising its charity golf tournament inside Lewisville even though the event will be held outside town limits.
The vote to approve this amendment was 6-0. Town Councilwoman Jane Welch was not present at the meeting.
The second UDO amendment also won unanimous approval. This amendment removed an unnecessary reference to marquee signs from the ordinance regarding on-premise freestanding signs for shopping centers and multi-tenant spaces.
“The Planning Board felt the reference to marquee signs did not fit in the context of the paragraph addressing freestanding signs” explained Town Planner Marty Myers. “The board felt the marquee term was not applicable to the paragraph and should be removed.”
