At the Sutter Creek Planning Commission Meeting, Commissioners talked about upcoming revisions to the city’s sign and tree ordinances. Early in the meeting, the commission tabled a motion for a sign permit at the new Ridge Business Park on Ridge Road. The commissioners felt it necessary to fix some inconsistencies in the city’s multiple sign ordinances before they approved the permit, in order to avoid piecemeal signage at the site. Chairman Robin Peters stated that he thought that the sign ordinances could be brought into step in a couple of months, and he and fellow commissioner Cort Strandberg volunteered to be a part of a review committee. The discussion then turned to the city’s tree ordinance, which is also up for review. Recent complaints to city officials about a property owner cutting down an excessive number of trees have led to the realization that more “teeth” are needed in the city’s tree ordinance. The planning commission decided that it will begin review of that ordinance once the sign ordinance update is underway.
