May 17, 1989
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL.
Dear Mayor and Members of the City Council :
We developers of new NORTHRIDGE PARKWAY subdivision
(Buck-Friedrich-H & F) have asked for permission to erect a 9 ' x
20' temporary sign to help us promote this new residential area.
We first requested this back on April 5, 1989 and in our minds
this was a simple request which would be an almost instant
approval to go ahead. No harm was being caused to anyone---the
area is way out in the open country side north of new Moore
Park. We felt it was important to have an appropriate sized
sign, professionally and attractively designed to properly
promote this new high quality housing area immediately.
We are now told that this simple request will require an
amendment to the sign ordinance which can cause several weeks
further delay in our getting the sign up.
We sincerely hope that in some way you can give us permission to
allow this sign while you are working out the amendment to the
sign ordinance. It really is of utmost importance to have the
sign up in order to identify the area properly.
We enclose herewith a copy of the proposed sign design and a
plat showing the location. The sign will be located on our land
and will be approximately 100 feet off the west side of County
Road R-50 . Also enclosed is a copy of the proposed ordinance
change.
Our thanks for your consideration.
Most sincerely,
Robert K. Friedrich

Re: Request for an oversized temporary sign for the new NKRTHRIDGE PARKWAY
Subdivision,
Dear Mayor Goodland and members of the Council:
Regretfully, I will be out of town for the meeting when you will
consider this request.
In any event I wanted you to know that we developers (Buck-Friedrich-H & F)
fully agree to support the staff recommendation for a 96 Square Foot sized
sign instead of the 180 square foot as we originally requested.
Therefore, we would sincerely appreciate your favorable vote for this
reduced size.
Thanking you kindly, I remain,
a�Sincerely yours, (�
