Action Requested of Council: Approval of Ordinance No. 21, Series of 1991, on second reading. Backaround Rationale: The staff has made the changes suggested by Council during the first reading of this ordinance on June 18, 1991, and is bringing the ordinance back for a second reading and final approval.

INTRODUCED, READ AND PASSED ON FIRST READING THIS day of 1990, and a public hearing shall be held on this Ordinance on the day of 1990 at 7:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers of the Vail Municipal Building, Vail, Colorado.

Kent R. Rose, Mayor ATTEST: Pamela A. Brandmeyer, Town Clerk 7 T0: Town Council FROM: Community Development Department DATE: July 2, 1991 SUBJ: A request to repeal and re-enact Section 16.20.220: Window Signs (E) Location Applicant: Town of Vail It has come to the staff's attention that there are some discrepancies in the Town of Vail sign code. Ordinance No. 9 of 1973 established the definition of a window sign as being within 6 inches of the glass surface. Ordinance 4 of 1975 changed the definition of a window sign to a sign within 36 inches of the glass surface and read as follows: "Window signs - a sign affixed on or located within thirty-six (36) inches of the interior surface of a window fronting a public way...." However, Section 16.20.220 Window Sign, E. location, states: "Window signs must be affixed to a glass surface or a maximum of 6 inches from the glass surface." The staff feels that the intent was to have both sections of the code refer to 36 inches and is proposing to change 16.20.220 Window Sign, E. Location to: "Window signs may be affixed to the interior of a glass surface or be located a maximum of 36 inches from the glass surface." Thus both the definition and the location sections of the sign code will match in intent. The staff recommends repealing and re-enacting Section 16.20.220 as stated above. ORDINANCE NO. 20 Series of 1991 AN ORDINANCE REPEALING AND RE-ENACTING SECTION 16.20.220 OF THE VAIL MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO WINDOW SIGNS. WHEREAS, the Community Development Department has reviewed Section 16.20.220 - Window Signs, Subsection E -Location, and recommend changes to the Town Council; and WHEREAS, these changes will clarify the location of window signs; and WHEREAS, the Town Council is of the opinion that the following changes would be in the public interest. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE TOWN COUNCIL OF THE TOWN OF VAIL, COLORADO THAT: Section 1 Section 16.20.220(E) shall be repealed and re-enacted to read as follows: 16.20.220 -Window Signs E. Location Window signs may be affixed to the interior of a glass surface or be located a maximum of 36 inches from the glass surface. Section 2 If any part, section, subsection, sentence, clause or phrase of this ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid, such decision shall not effect the validity of the remaining portions of this ordinance; and the Town Council hereby declares it would have passed this ordinance, and each part, section, subsection, sentence, clause or phrase thereof, regardless of the fact that any one or more parts, sections, subsections, sentences, clauses or phrases be declared invalid. Section 3 The Town Council hereby finds, determines and declares that this ordinance is necessary and proper for the health, safety and welfare of the Town of Vail and the inhabitants thereof. Section 4 The repeal or the repeal and reenactment of any provision of the Vail Municipal Code as provided in this ordinance shall not affect any right which has accrued, any duty imposed, any violation that occurred prior to the effective date hereof, any prosecution commenced, nor any other action or proceeding as commenced under of by virtue of the provision repealed or repealed and reenacted. The repeal of any provision hereby shall not revive any provision or any ordinance previously repealed or superseded unless expressly stated herein. 1 INTRODUCED, READ ON FIRST READING, APPROVED AND ORDERED PUBLISHED ONCE IN FULL, this day of , 1991.
